GREATEST OF SUCCESSES
Annual Rose Festival far Outdoes)
Events of Former Years
Oregon City's rose show was a suc
cess beyond all anticipations. It was
a huge success, a lurid, bang-up big
time in every detail, and a success
that will hearafter make this date a
county holiday. ,
There were more people in attend
ance than any other gathering the
Courier editor ever witnessed in Ore
gon City. The city was packed.
Trains and street cars were full, and
autos came into the city in a contin
uous line.
And the attractions couldn't have
been better. The street parade and
the long line of decorated floats were
great.
The water sports and boat racing
were splendid attractions, arid the
rose show and attractions in Busch's
hall were excellent.
And by the way it takes a bunch of
ladies to pull off such an event. The
success was a splendid tribute tol
their ability to plan and carry out
such a splendid festival and have it
go off so satisfactorily and smoothly.
There were 35 autos in the parade,
all handsomely decorated, and many
of them bowers of beauty. There
were many floats drawn by teams;
there were societies in handsome un
iforms, firemen, little folks in hand
come rigs, laughable stunts in short
the parade was a splendid success.
It was almost a case of flip a coin
to decide where the prizes should go,
as there were so many deserving
floats. When the parade went up
Main street the judges decided to
mark as "good" the handsomest rigs
and qualify them on the return par
ade, but after two inspections nearly
every number was yet marked "good."
It was simply a situation where more
prizes were needed an emergency
of fine distinction. ;
Judge Dimick was given first city
prize for best decorated auto, and J.
C. ,Cooke first prize for out of town
for an auto representing the Clack
amas Southern railroad. Ward Mor
ton of Mt. Pleasant won first prize
for out of city and George Armstrong
of Redlands second.
The vehicles in the city, other than
autos, the human rosebud vehicle by
the rose society won first prize and
the commercial club second, and out
side -the city Mothers' Congress float
of Canemah took first. The Moose
lodge was- easily winners of first
prize for pedestrians in their hand
some costumes and Pierce Walker's
boy scouts took second money.
Harry Kramer won first money
without hesitation in his "Jackomo
bile" and it was certainly a laugh
able, ingenious arrangement of -mule
and auto, and Misses Alice Holman
and. Evelyn Williams, as a pair of
pedestrians, came in for a prize on
their clever make-up.
In the "unique class the Concord
IndiansL about two dozen youthful
squaws and braves, carried off the
first prize and Charlie Schram's
trouserless youths in barrels were
second in prize money, but first in
advertising for the Grand.
Among the many beautifully dec
orated cars, from which the judges
were much in doubt over were those
driven by Al Price, - E. E. Brodie,
Frank Sullivan, George Sullivan, Jas.
Petty, Sheriff Mass, C. H. Dye, M.
D. Latourette, Henry Stevens, Ger
ald Warner, Charles Miller, Charles
Parker, Ed Busch, Dr. Mount and
Kent Wilson.
The parade on the river was a fine
display. There were 30 boats, all
sizes and kinds in the parade, and
nearly all decorated with flags and
bunting.
The motor boat racing was as plen-
did speed contest. The "Vamoose"
was an easy winner over the "Wolf"
but the exhibitions were fine, and
when you consider that the "Vam
oose" made the distance of nearly
eight miles in 9 and a half minutes,
then you realize that an auto-, would
have to go some i to keep up. The
"Vamoose" as an easy winner, The
Wolfs time being 10 minutes and
44 Seconds. Other' boat races followed
the big event, and thousands of spec
tators lined the river banks.
Full credit for this splendid suc
cess must be given to the ladies who
managed this year's . festival. They
have more than made good. Men could
not have done half as "well. This fes
tival has set a standard for the fu
ture. NOISE AND FUN
Commercial Club Excursion was
SnliMirfifl. Jollv ' Entertainment
There was never a more jolly triff
than that of Monday when tne sieam
nra Ruth and Lane carried two loads
of jolly boosters and noise makers to
Portland to help King Kex get tne
rose festival 'started right, and the
thousands of people who lined the riv
er banks and crowded the draw brid
ges know pretty well where Orego'
City is, and that trains don't have to
be signalled to stop there.
It was a fine advertising feature
and a splendid outing for commercial
club members and families, ine
Ktenmem were handsome v decorated
and were conspicious in the long train
of boats that escorted the king down
the harbor to the city festiviies.
Noise? Afer.the fleet formed it
was one continual din. Every steam
boat whistle was at its loudest; every
passenger who had a tin horn tried
to blow the noise out of it; the two
cruisers at anchor joined in the chor
us, and every factory whistle in
Portland got in. But it was fun.
Leaving at 9 and returning at 2,
thH trin was too short, and no doubt
every member on both boats will join
in a resolution that each June we help
the king start things at the rose ies-
ival.
An exciting game of baseball was
played on the Eldorado baseball
grounds Sunday, the teams being
those of Eldorado and . Shubel. The
score was' 4 to 18 In favor of the LI
dorado team. '

& Power Company to carry 150 lbs.
of baggage free of charge on a full
fare ticket and 75 pounds on a halt
ticket on the line from Portland to
Oregon City, as well as to Estacada,
Troutdale and Bull Run.
This order is the result of a hearing
at Portland last Saturday in which
the complainant was C. G. Sutherland.
The company has heretofore refused
baggage without charge on its lines,
but the Commission declares its prac
tice in this respect is unreasonable.
Passengers will be entitled to check
baggage free up to 100 and 75 lbs.,
for full and half fare tickets, respec
tively, whenever the fare paid is the
Pregular cash rate and the one-way
fare for the distance traveled is 25
cents or more.
The order will go into effect in 20
days, this time being allowed to give
the company opportunity to correct
its rates on file at Salem.
Library Notes
The work of arranging the shelves
in the new building and sorting per
iodicals and newspapers for filing, is
about complete now, and by the time
of the formal opening, on the twenty
first, everything will be in place. The
fact that this work has been done
without any interruption of circulat
ion has made it somewhat slower than
it otherwise would have been.
A little leaflet entitled "Don't be a
Quitter" has been mailed to each
member of the recent high school
graduating class, with the library's
congratulations and an invitation to
the library, The leaflet contains pome
valuable suggestions concerning the
continuance of an education by the
use of books,
Miss' Price, the " librarian, is at- -tending
the convention of the Pacific
Northwest Library Association at Ta
coma. This association is made up of
librarians of Oregon, Washington and
British Columbia.
Take Plenty of Time to Eat
There is a saying that "rapid eat
ing is slow suicide." If you have form
ed the habit of eating too rapidly you
are most likely suffering from indi
gestion or constipation, which will
result eventually in serious illness
unless corrected. Digestion begins in
the mouth. Food should be. thorough
ly masticated and insalivated. Then
when you have a fullness of the stom
ach or feel dull and stupid after eat
ing, take one of Chamberlain's Tab
lets. Many severe cases of stomach
trouble and constipation have been
cured by the use of these tablets.
They are easy to take and most agre
able in effect. Sold by Huntley Bros.
