On its way to today it has added to the fame of some of the world’s greatest cities, Venice, | Rome, Paris and New Orlean. The | wuy earnival is celebrated in Rio de d iro every year, however, is a more spontaneous exhibition of popular en- | thusiasm and is played on a greater ! cale than ever seen in any other city of the world, { Madri Gras, the final day of the car- uiv :elebration in this city, falls this yeur on March 4. months preparations for the celebra- tion have been under way, Hundreds | rinival elubs have been organizing programs, their musie, costumes, | i float for the enormous street purades which will begin March 2 and continue to the dawn of March 5, Mil- lions are being spent in these prepara- tions und other millions will be spent | Ly the people in masquerade cotumes, fireworks, dances, parties, and every imaginable mean of producing fun and | Lilarity. | During the three days and nights of | carnival, the streets in an area of less | than u square mile in the heart of Rio's | business distriet will contain more than a million of fun seeking people, | the vast majority being dressed in intastic costumes, marked, and en- Joying themselves with an abandon | possible only to Latin blood. Stret parades of wonderfully decor. uted floats, throbbing drums and blar. g trumpets, miles of wutomoblles | containing the youth and beauty of| Bra 1 socloty, clouds of confett! | and serpentinas, stifling waves of per- | fumes, and crushing crowds of raln- | bow colored masqueraders are the | clements that form carnival atmos. phere, The frolicing muititude cre- ates o spirit that is as contaglous as the forvor of a revival, For weeks beforo the m'lrhrnllun} beging in Rio, all the rallway and stoamship lines will be taxed beyond | their capacity bringing crowds from | all parts of Brazil, other parts of | Houth Americu, and even from l~urope‘ Livery hotel, rooming house, nml home will be filled to overflowing with | guests, Literally thousands will sleep in the streets, rain or fair, during the velebration, ‘I'he grey dawn of tho first day of | Lont will find all Brazil in a properly | penitential mood. The sliken domino | will be rumpled and torn; the guitar | strings will be broken, and Plerrot will hiave a dark brown taste in his mouth, But he will be satisfied to the marrow | of his aching bones, | League Calls for White [ Slavery Report of U, S. | Parls, ¥eb, 20—France had spent, | tion hes been recelved by the league | of natlons that Miss Grace Abbott, of the department of commercs and la. | Lot at Washington, has been request. | ed 1o furnish a report on the traffic | in women and children in the United | < flates, A world wide investigation of thu- subject is being undertak: by the leagpa with a view to attaining the total suppression of the socalled | white slave traffie.
