from .the Lewis and Clark Exposi

be seen large numbers of visitors. Every
bright day is the occasion of" gatherings
amounting to little less than crowds, es
pecially If the -day happens .to be Sunday,
No. one who makes the trip 'finds It.un-'
profitable, for -the Exposition is growing
in beauty each day, even as it is growjhg;
in size. The well-ordered grounds and;
lawns, the - -magnificent exhibit palates.,
a number of which arc already completed,
and the marble-like stairways and es
planades form an exquisite picture against
the background of Tiills and-firs. " - .
To the visitor, .unfamiliar with. Pacific
Coast flora, -pleasurable surprise' Is
caused by the large .gardens-of beautiful
roses and flowers and "the broad,, green
garden stretches in the. experimental
farm. All these, flourish as 'If the season'
were mid-Summer rather than . mid
Winter. ... " '',-
With the great activity that has char-!
aeterlzed operations ' af the Exposition

ness that comparatively little Js . left to

gestive of their usage.
The Exposition .grounds with their un
