The sun win out a -sliininp. tlio breakers
tumbled high, l
And the Ronrdwnlk scomcvl n rninhnw
tlint fell from out the sky :
Tor a hundred thousand jirottv clrl
went Rayly tripping by
TVJUh thoe Knstcr frills nncl fmlwlmvo
that captivate the eye.
A whole rityful of people joined the
East r parade on the ItonnlnnlU at At
Jantic City yesterday, ami they together
lyalked enough miles fn take a M'litmc
some person up to the moon ami lu. k
again. It is figured mote than L'DO.iinn
persons were in the parade the luige-,1
Easter crovul on record.
Freak Cost timer I'm
The weather was almost ide.il f..i
promenading. The miu shone nil dm j
excepting for about an hour at middin.
and the air was brisk and invigorating. I
In the afternoon a stiff brece from the
Rea made walking difficult.
The parade was unu-uallv devoid of
the so-called "freak styles. It Was not
without its characteristic. lioumei.
Uesides the everlasting incongruities of
loyv necks und throat -fur?, and of -truw
hats and overcoats, there was a notable
superabundance of necklaces of colored
wooden beads, brilliant wcsluts, soldiers
and buttons.
These great strings of large bends
were oriental in atmosphere and black,
brown, flaming red, green, gold in olor.
They liung outside the coats from the
necks of the parading maidens. The
weskits of siler or yellow serge, or of
pale blue or pink, or of Paisley motley.

uri'ua uk avtuivi.1. uuiijiniojs in uini'
drab, poilus in blue, and Tommies,
some of them wounded, threw out their
chests and counted the countless buttons '
on the backs of the damsels who strolled j
ahead of them T.nrgc buttons, small '
buttons, blnck buttons, brown. Row I
' on row, these buttons edged many a
clinging skirt, and marched single tile
upon the heretofore unfrequented areas
of Amaryllis's bioadcloth.
From bobbed hair and blnck -rimmed
"specs" to coiffure mosf conventional,
young women's heads-moved up nnd
down the IJoardwalk in restless rcnicu.
"piping" each other "off." And with
out stint or special faor they, along
with their mcnfolks, ceaselessly regis
tered mental approval or disapproval
of the passing show.
Drooping Theda Warns floated down
past the shops in their tight-fitting
Und, of suakv giny aud black. And
'sweet Mary Pickfords. m beflowered
and beruffled white flicks, watch
wltlr wistful ejei". l.intht. Aimtnor
clied them
er dresses
with .diaphanous sleeves nnd thick fur
capes, moved side by side in the gay :
march. There was color enough, but
with a heavy mtituie of the simple '
severity of the military style.
, Military Leather Suit
A military -cut suit of tan leather.
with a tan leather turban and puttees
to match, drew an enviable amount of
attention, as did a jet riding habit with
boots and a flapping brimmed bat. A
half-dozen "loud" bluek-nnd-nhite
checkered affnirs proved effective.
A dress of blue with a big silver sun
tourst radiating extensively from the .
region of the knees opened muiiv criti
cal eyes. This extremely tight hobble
was a fraud. A ten-inch slit in the
back made it a walknble skirt. And the
saving grace for most of thrc long
fcobbles on the Boardwalk yesterday was
justsuch a slit, some of them occurring
on the flanks, some of them fore and
aft.
The hats took on a distinctively na
tionalistic tone. China offered the round
mandarin hat with its picturesque color
ing. Spain contributed the "toreador, '
with. the pink pompons on the brim
Holland gave the Dutch rheese-ninul
ens's cap wth the starched car-wing
Russia, the fur hat. Scotland, a vnrien
of tam-'o-shanters. And lrom upper
Pennsylvania came the garden hat of
clustered cherries, pears, pansics and
peaches. A few of the paraders affected
trench caps and helmets of straw.
The annals of the men in the prom
enade arc short nnd simple. They wore
ilic army cut and spats and carried
sticks. Hero and there, their clothes
were stranger than the maidens' but (
never so interesting either to man or
maid.
Throughout the day, at intervals, two I
seaplanes and one army plane sailed
overhead. When the army plane soared ,
to a high altitude and then spiraled and j
lopped the loop, the men and women on
the Boardwalk and on the beach forgot
their charming clothes.
And one lone man, who was in white
flannels, wore a heavy overcoat nnd a ,
straw hat.
Blaze Breaks Calm of Chinatown
Tire in a room on the third floor of
,C0f Race street caused excitement in
Chinatown this morning. The firo was
caused by worn insulation on electric
wires, which Bet fire to the floor. It
was quickly extinguished. Damage was
Blight.
I, !
are always higher
in quality than in price
which makes them
an economy for you.

They Win You On Quality!
Your enjoyment of Camels will be very great be
cause their refreshing flavor and fragrance and
mellowness is sp enticingly different. You never
tasted such a cigarette! Bite is eliminated and there
is a cheerful absence of any unpleasant cigaretty
aftertaste or any unpleasant cigaretty odor!
Camels are made of an expert blend of choice
Turkish and choice Domestic tobaccos and are
smooth and mild, but have that desirable full-body
and certainly hand out satisfaction in generous
measure. They are good all the way through and
may be smoked liberally without tiring your
taste. You will prefer this Camel Talend to
either kind of tobacco smoked straight!
Give Camels the stiffest tryout, then
compare them with any cigarette in the
world at any price for quality, flavor,
satisfaction. No matter how liberally
you smoke Camels they will not
tire your taste!

Texas Congressman, Replying

They Work Together
CITES ANTI-DRY THREAT
Hy the Associated Press
Dallas, Tex., April 121. Congressman
Thomas L. ninhton. in a signed state
ment yesterday, reiterates his criticism
of Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Lnbor, made
last week in a speech nt Mineral Wells,
Tex , nnd asserted that lnbor unionism,
socialism and Bolshevism are working
hand in hand nnd are virtually "Identi
cal in that they all foster disregard of
law, force aud anarchy."
The statement was in reply to one
given out in Washington Saturday night
hy Mr. Gompers, lu which the lnbor
leader nsseited that Mr. Blnnton's Min-
I ernl Wells address was a confession of
, the congressman's "utter incapacity of
' understanding the plainest proposition
of right, justice nnd democracy."
Illantou's statement asserts that
while American soldiers were "fight
ing in trenches knee-deep in mud" the
four railroad brotherhoods forced the
government to grnnt wage increases of
S700,000,0fK) and laler secured an ad
ditional increase of SOS, 000, 000. This
1 money, Mr. Blanton says, has come out
,of the pockets of the people through
iinc,.?scd rn,c,' nml "abominob,c scn
"While the Bolshevik Lenine threat
ens unless we release the convicted.
Mooney. Mr. Gompcrs's unions threaten
a disastrous strike unless we comply
with Lcninc's demand." the statement
nsseited. "Likewise Lenine threatens
from Kussia unless we release Debs
nnd the unions ngnin threaten strikes
unless we comply.
"Forty-five states have ratified na
tional prohibition, which is made a
nrt of the fundamental law of the
nn,l, jet Mr. Gompcrs's unions threat
en n nation-wide strike on Jiuy
1 against the conditions," Mr. HIanton
said.
