that order be restored.
Photographer Handicapped.

One of the humorous incidents was
provided by Farley when he an
nounced that the Official photograph
Of the convention taken at the open
ing session in the morning had not
been satisfactory and that another
would be taken. The second photo
graph was taken as the photographer
made vain appeals to the 10000 per-
sons in the vast auditorium to remain
still for several minutes.
Like the opening session, the second
session was an hour late starting
1t was 9 O'Clock when Farley called
the convention to order.
A few minutes later vivacious Kitty
Carlise, Louisiana's gift to radio, sang
America" and the session was started
on its second chapter by Gov. Earle.
Two hours before the scheduled
opening of the night session, the
auditorium began to fill up, and at
8 o'clock it was jammed to capacity.
Those who could not get into the
huge hall crowded around a dozen
exits and listened to the proceedings
as they were blasted out over a
battery of amplifiers.

EARLE INSPIRES
HALL TO CHEERS
Demonstration Follow ing
Speech Continues for
Nearly 80 Minutes.
BY a STAFF Correspondent Of The Star.


PHILADELPHIA, June "a The
third chapter Of the great Democratic
pageant will be written today in the
huge Philadelphia Municipal Audito-
rum where, before the close Of the
week. President Roosevelt is to be Sc
lected as the partys standard-bearer
for another four years.
Packed to the very roof with $4,000
persons, the big auditorium again last
night was rocked with cheers and
demonstrations for the New Deal
and its leader as Senator Barkley of
Kentucky delivered the keynote ad-
dress of the convention.
Every mention Of the Presidents
name was answered with a thunder
ing demonstration. Every assault on
the former administration was greeted
in the same way and a deafening
crescendo would flash through the hall
at any reference to New Deal
achievement. Mention Of the Liberty
League, however, brought only wave
of boos.
Earle Given Ovation.
A dozen times or more the audito-
rum was thrown into a bedlam, but
one of the outstanding demonstrations
followed an address by Gov. Earle Of
Pennsylvania.
Gov. Earle was given several i'm
pressive ovations. The first came
when Postmaster General Farley in
troduced him as "a great Governor
from the great Democratic State of
Pennsylvania" Again, when Gov.
Earle told why he deserted the Re-
publican party four years ago to be-
come New Dealer, the applause and
noise from whistles and bells created
a nerve-straining din. But the great
est demonstration of all was the one
that came with the close of his speech.
1t was similar and almost as pro-
longed as the 30-minute demonstra-
tion staged at the opening session in
honor Of the President.
The Pennsylvania delegation started
the demonstration and in q few mo-
ments all of the 5000 delegates and
alternates had started a procession in
the auditorium. The delegates marched
down one aisle and circled into an
other until the entire auditorium floor
had been covered.

greeted 1t with an affectionate tug on

Another prolonged demonstration
was given In honor of Senator
Barkley at the conclusion of his long
keynote address. The Kentucky dele
CATION started it and every other
State delegation fell into the process
sion. Flags were waved, bands played
Southern melodies and a group of
hill billies with the West Virginia
delegation sang Comm Round the

Barkley himself, as temporary
chairman of the convention, ended
the celebration. 1t was 1850 pm.
and he wanted to bring the second
session Of the convention to a close

rare animals. However, protection
was given to these owners of the
streams and woods, and their number
is increasing remarkably throughout
their range.
In many of our parks they have
become expert panhandlers. In spite
of the fact they normally are solitary
creatures. they seem to revel in human
friendships and foods. What these
bears cannot digest would be inter-
esting. II you see a group of bears,

generation with their mother. And
a bear mother will not take the time
to read your mind, II you happen to
encroach upon her domain, and her
children seem to need her protection.
While they are rather inclined to
be silent, they have a language of
their own that Is long and adequate,
and can convey to their human
brother the state Of their minds
There Is the growl OF anger, the cough
of warning, the sniff Of inquiry, the
bawls and whines of pain or rage.
The love song is impossible to describe.

In their extreme youth their wise
mother had taught them obedience.

permit q bear to come too close to

Even though bears start life the

when they get out into the open and
their school days begin. They live to
