WASHINGTON MAYOR LEADS PARADE

Washington's lady-mayor was in Charles Town, West Virginia, last evening to act as grand marshall of the Sesqnicentennial parade.

The mayor’s children were much upset when they first heard of the invitation. The only grand marshalls they had ever seen were of military style'and rode horaes. They were acutely conscious of the fact that their mother’s equestrian accomplishments were not up to such an occasion, and they did not want to be ashamed of her. Final persuasion got them settled when they found that Uie horse was not a required' means of transportation, and that a grand marshall can lead a parade by riding in a car.

According to Mrs. C. T. Bruce, the local bridge club had to forego its meeting this week. It seems it was Mrs. Davis’s turn to entertain and she “had to ride a horse’* in the parade on bridge club night.
