The display of fireworks on the beach front, near Sixth street in the evening, drew an immense throng, the largest ever seen litre, to the Boardwalk, and the display of pyrotechnies, particularly the sej tiieees, won the praDc of the spectators, who showed their approval by huniHelappioir ami choruses of "alts'.'.

These r exercises wei-e hebl on the large 1 [Kirch overlooking the hay, ami were opened by the assemblage singing "America", led by Dr. Wayne _T. . KIMian, ami accompanied I;;.- Itachm lib's Million Dollar Band." Prior tn the lieginning of the ceremonies the band played a .number of selections, which were appreciated by the gatheripg. After "America" had l>eeh sung there was an invocation by the Ilex-. Dr. John Hundley, pastor of the , First M. K. Church. Frank I). Newberry, chairman of the committee, presented Commodore J. W.
