Rose Festival electric pageant.
Current was harnessed from the
trolley wires and used to transport
the spectators literally Into ecstaclea
of light. Fairy tales and poems, epics
and sagas were depicted in soft shad,
ings. brilliant colorings, augmented
by all the romance that the wonder
ful music produced by 16 Shrine bands
could produce.
But undoubtedly, aside from the
rare beauty of the wonderful illumi
nation spectacle, there was vet a
greater spectacle.
That was the crowds.
Never has Portland known such a
crowd.
Crowd Held I nequalrd.
Mayor Baker. Chief of Police Jen
kins and other civic authorities lalt
night, while the parade was in prog
ress, declared that never in Portland
had there been such a massing of the
citizenry and visitors.
At least 200,000 persons lined the
parade route, and perhaps that esti

stands, seating 30.000, were packed,
except one stand which had 3000 seats
vacant, duo probably to the inability '

crowds were 10. 20 and 30 deep.
Imperial Potentate Kendrick, ' with
W. J. Hofmann, general chairman, was
in the lead, and the rare beauty of
the pageant captured his imagination.
His electrically illumined car followed
immediately after the crack Al Kader
band.
Only one thing marred the spec
tacle, as Portland has known it in
other years the floats were borne on
wagon bodies with a ground connec
tion at the rear. This connection
was imperfect and from time to time
the lights flashed out and the re
sultant short circuiting cut out some
of the series of lights.
Criticism, too, for the first time
