(This will be the greatest crowd ever handled by railroads in one day. In 1901 the Great Eastern Railway of England carried 200 -000 to King Edward VII's coronation, the previous record.)

Several hundred employes of the Cook County forest preserve will watch cross-roads and dispense bedding, fuel and cooking utensils at the many camp sites provided for the touring pilgrims. Auto-repair gangs will patrol...
