was a signal for the boys and their
leaders to spring to salute before the
colors of their country.
Eleven minutes later another blast
was ordered, preceding the unfurling
of 62 foreign standards along the
stately avenue of flags.
The deep boom of the final can
non four minutes later wes the cue
for a simultaneous display of 1S43
other flaga through the camp city.

who came to Washington afoot, by
bicycle, motorcycle, automobile, train,
bus, boat and airplane:

pioneer, will light this evening with
flint and steel the fire of fellowship
which will burn during the encamp
ment. Word spread through the camp

ed ranks along Constitution avenue
