Show 17 Years Ago Although President - elect i Roosevelt has announced his1 desire for a simple inaugura- tion ceremony on March 4, the fact remains that the capital of the nation on that day will; be the scene of a celebration which is always impressive, no matter how many of the spectacular spec-tacular elements which have characterized past presidential inau?urations may be discarded discard-ed because of the demand of the present times for economy in all things. For whether the ceremony is simple or elaborate and whether the weather is fair or stormy (and it has become almost al-most a tradition that it's pretty likely to be stormy), inauguration inaugura-tion day is a red-letter day for the nation and as many of our citizens who can go to the national na-tional dn-pital to take part in it and usually do their best to make the most of that day. |
