The real demonstration took place at Logan Square. the terminus of the parade. Here were gathered several thousand women, in the blue and khaki of every patriotic organization in the city. They had waited patiently in the rain, and whn the bronzed stalwarts of Chateau-Thierry and l'elleau Wood, many of them wearing the very uniform in which they fought so gallantly on foreign soil, came into view the acclaim knew no bounds. Cheer followed cheer, hats, caps and banners presented a conglomerate waving maze overhead, dignified citizens fought madly fvr places near the ropes guarding the route.

The demonstration was not a rippling outburst or two: it was prolonged, sustained. TLe Marines aud ovtrbeas naval units given a place of honor at the last minute, were drdwn up in military formation. on the east side of the square, to allow the wounded men, numbering more than eight hundred, to pass around the square in automobiles. proud ot the glorious moment. The navy was the escort.

Everv branch was represented. The bluejackets marched as only seafaring men can march. Illustrating their characteristics, they bore banners proclaiming the ships they were from. And most of these banners wore two gold service bars, to let the world know that the men behind had done more than fifteen months duty at sea, backing up the work in hand on land.

PACKAGE The Thoroughbred 9 9 It's So Easy Now to to a lighting brother, was one of the outstanding features of the parade. Four Thousand in Line With upward of four thousand men in line, the parade got under way promptly on the hour of one from Broad and South streets, the starting point to which the marchers were conveyed from the Navy Yard in automobiles and trolley cars. A blare of martial music from the United States Marine I 'and. of Washington, D. and the columns of marching mfn moved majestically north on Iroad street behind Colonel Hamilton Disston South.

the chief marshal, and his mounted staff. Major A. Biddle, chief of staff, through whose efforts chiefly the tribute to the marines was made possible; Major Jeter Horton, Captain J. C. Hayes, Lieutenant A.

G. William, Lieutenant Charles Wald and Commander Clement M. Bid-die. U. S.

N. From the time the column started until the march ended, the -marines lacked not a single second of applause. The people stood patiently in drizzling rain until they came. And like an electric thot, was the thrill that swelled with the volume of cheers. And swinging along with certain stride, their service chevron and wound chevrons telling plainly their history, came those heroic five hundred veterans of the two famous engagements.

The two lines of automobiles followed right behind the marching marines. Smiles brightened the face of each wounded man. Physical pain was forgotten in the crowd's spontaneous outbursts with its more intimate ote of deeper appreciation when some hero bowed or occasionally nodded- Most of them would salute towards some particularly enthusiastic group. All were happy. The official review took place from a stand on the north plaza of the Citv Hall, where a distinguished group of military, marine, naval and municipal dignitaries assembled to honor the.

veterans. The official reviewing party was made np of Major General and Mrs. Barnett, their daughters, the Misses Leila and Anne Gordon Barnett; Major General Littleton Waller, Vice Admiral A. W. Grant, IL, S.

S. M. C. The ranking officers were also accompanied by their staffs. General and Mrs.

Barnett nearly missed the parade. They did miss the luncheon in their honor given by Major and Mrs. Biddle at the Bellevue-Strat- ford, as tbe train on which they came to this city was an hour late. Salutes Wounded General Barnett saluted the head of the column as it passed, but he paid a Tremendous Enthusiasm This was the signal for another outburst, even greater in volume, which, however, conttined an intangible note of sympathy ever accorded the sick, the lame and the ailing. Wounded marines and even sailors there were in plenty but with the optimism typical of the American doughboy, they apparently minded little their aches and pains, but waved gaily to the shouting throngs as they passed through the lane of inspired Thiladelphians.

As the remaining units completed the loop of the square and countermarched down the west side of the Parkway, presenting a striking picture as they passed by oncoming columns of comrades-in-arms, the restraining ropes were let down and heroes suddenly found themselves surrounded by a bewildering throng-of pretty debutantes and matrons of Bed Cross auxiliaries, the Emergency Aid, the War Camp Community Service. Girl Scouts, Junior Aides of the Council of National Defense, the Pennsylvania Women's Division for National Preparedness, tire National League for Women's Service and other organizations, less known, but equally patriotic. Bearing Landfills of cigarettes and candy and an abundance of good cheer, they grasped the hand of sailor and marine, wound'-d and well, with an enthusiastic sincerity which must have conveyed to the men some inkling of the regard in which they are held by all Philadelphia. Major-General Waller arrived on the scene in time to witness the congratulatory demonstration and noe was more pleased than he at the rousing welcome tendered his Not a little of Philadelphia's demonstrative welcome was centered around the striking figure of an aged, but alert and vigorous man in the faded blue of Civil War -days. He was John P.

Fredd. of Pottstown, the oldest surviving Marine of the Civil war, who served under Farragut and Bailey on the TJ. S. S. San Jacinto and is still able "to march with the best of them," as he put it.

He did not march yesterday but rode in. an automobile as the guest of Major-General Jack the Mascot The crew of the Bushnell produced the only novelty of the pageant, a white English terrier, answering the name of Jack, who refused to be left behind at the navy yard and marched proudly at the head of the unit, restrained by a leash. The canine was picked up in London while the Bushnell was port and has since become elevated to the position of official mascot of the boat. 11 The spirited, dependable performance of Overland Model 90 has won the admiration of more than 115,000 owners. Its stamina and endurance have built up a world-wide prestige founded squarely on service.
