to the celebration, for hundreds of i
steam whistles on craft In both rlv- |
ers were opened wide at midnight to ]
swell the babble on land. The notes I
of chimes which pealed from churchj
towers almost were drowned by the j
din from sirens and that made by
street crowds with horns, cowbells and
other notse-maklng devices.
In churches throughout the ettj
servlcess were held.
