List of the Awards.
As early as 10 o'clock yesterday morn
ing, . even before tha exhibits were
f)ed, entered or tagged, hundreds of
peop4e were swarming through the For
estry building, anxious to view Portland's
3907 rose show, and in the afternoon and
evening there was a constant throng
roroing and going. Every streetcar head
ed for the Exposition grounds was
Vacktd, and until a late hour last night
the crowds continued to pour In. Splen
did specimens of rosee. Including every
one Of Portland's 300 varlotien, were on
very hand, and great mass en of them
wer banked about the big hollowed log
which stands in the center of the big
building.
There were roses in the booths, and
roses in the hair of the pretty girls who
Served refreshments; there were baskets
of roses banging from the ceiling and
ropes of them stretched about the
building. The fragrance of rones filled
the air, and the riot of color greeted the
ye op every side,
Tha exhibits were, despite the rather
late date of the show, up to Portland's
uiuial high standard, and the blossoms to
which the official blue ribbons were
Anally affixed, after much deliberation
upon the part of the judges, were speci
mens of which any city might well be
proud. And the prize-winners were not
the only fln roses on exhibit. Regret
was txpressed by the Judges yesterday
afternoon that carelessness on the part
of those entering some of the best roses
st the show prevented their winning the
prises.
Roses "ot Properly Entered.
"There were some magnificent roses to
which we could give no recognition at
nil." said one of the Judges last night,
"for tha reason that those entering them
failed to observe the rules of the' show.
Pome of the beautiful roses that, if they
)isd been entered properly in the class
to which they belonged, would have car
ried off prises hands down, were bunched
In with collection exhibits, and other
An roses, among them onp particularly
, v jJSfcas ?
r;r i :-v
Swingring down Sixth street from Madison, the column of 2000 children,
paily decorated 'with flowers, and carrying bouquets, wreaths and garlands, j.,
spread its full length on that thoroughfare below Yamhill street. The parade
formally opened the Rose Carnival and Fiesta." Executing difficult marching
maneuvers with fins precision and skill, the children made an impressive
magnificent Madame Hoste - specimen,
were put on exhibit without so much as
a tag or a number for identification. We
could do nothing but award the prizes
to the best of the exhibits that had been
properly entered, and ignore those not
entered according to the rules.
"The importance of observing the rules
of the show should be urged upon the
exhibitors this year, lest they repeat the
mistake next yearand so lose again the
beautiful prizes to which they are enti
tled. Why, do you know,, two of the
handsomest awards had to be left un
claimed, ju st because the roses which
would have won them, had they been of
ficially entered, were simply stuck up in
vases, untagged and unnumbered? An
other remarkable thing was this of all
the beautiful tea roses grown in Port
land, not one was officially entered at
the show.
Show a Splendid Success.
Despite these unfortunate mistakes
In the entries, however.iall the judges
declared the show a solendid success,
as did the several thousands of men,
women and children who visited the
building in' the afternoon and evening.
A feature of the show which deserves
especial credit was the management of
the various booths and refreshment
nooks, in which the thirst and hunger
of the visitors, and particularly of the
women and children, were so capably
assuaged by the women and girls in
ci .ge of the Travelers Aid depart
ment of the Young Women's Christian
Association. Incidentally, a neat har
vest of dimes and nickels was gathered
in for the worthy fund. Among the
most attractive of the booths was the
Oriental Tea Garden, in charge of Mrs.
Andrew Kan, and the "Mossy Beverage
Well," in charge-of Mrs. Tinker. The
souvenir postoffice, with Miss Camilla
Do sen and Miss Carlotta .Parker as
postmistresses, was also a popular at
traction. The daintily-dressed bevy of
young girls who assisted at the various
booths, with patience and tact and a
bright smile for everyone, did much to
make the rose show the splendid suc
cess that it was.

Women Under Auspices X. W C. A.
Refreshment booths established at the
Forestry building during the Rose Show
and Fiesta by the T. W. C. A., under the
management of the Travelers Aid de
partment of that organization, attracted
much attention from the thousands who
visited the showing of roses in the build
ing yesterday. The unique lemonade
stand, under the guise of an old-fashioned
well, with pretty girls serving fruit
punch, was a pronounced success. Mrs.
Tinker and Mrs. Virginia Hutchinson had
charge of this booth. Mrs. Wren, assist
ed by ladies from St. Mark's Church, had
the peanut and popcorn booth. One of the
most popular centers was the soda water
fountain, which was under the direction
of Mrs. M. Flelschner and Mrs. Gus
Simon, assisted by charming young
women. Next to this stand the St.
David's Church ladies, led by Mrs. Van
Waters and Mrs. Moore, had their booth.
The Trinity. Guild did good work in the
ice cream and cake booth. The women in
charge were Mesdames Wisdom, McKib
ben, Kron, Fenton, Stevens. Warrens,
Russell and Miss Brown. These ladies
were also assisted by pretty girls. The
cherry booth made, a pretty picture, with
Its dainty girls serving cherries under the
trees. A profitable enterprise has been
the souvenir booth, which is presided
over by Miss Camille Dosch.
The coffee, sandwich and salad booth
was popular with hungry people. : Mrs.
Basey, Mrs. Jasper, Mrs. ' Graham, Mrs.
Dalton and Miss Carne Holbrook man
aged this stand. Beside the workers at
each booth, cashiers on duty yesterday'
were Mrs. Cardwell, Mrs..- Cole and
Missfes Cornelia Lamberson and Swlgert.
Many others helped the work along,
among them being Miss Delia Watson and
Miss Helen Hutchinson, and Messrs. Ken
neth Honeyman. Kenneth Kinney, Jira
Bassey and Walter Korell helped make
things go by acting as spielers. ; Mrs. W.
J. Honeyman, Mrs. Frank Swanton and
Miss Templeton, with the secretaries of
the T. W. C. A., have stood behind the
general organization in the work, which

QREGONWDMEN PRETTIEST
A GLOBE-TROTTER SATS THE!
EXCEL- ALL OTHERS.
English Visitor Declares Tbis State'!
. Beauties Are the Fairest He
Has Ever Seen. .
"Portland women are the handsomest
In the world," said C. W. Booth, a
wealthy retired fruit importer, of Brad
ford, England, at the Imperial Hotel
lr.t night. Mr. Booth, who Is finishing
a tour around the world, also made
the solemn declaration that Oregon ap
ples are unapproached by any raised
anywhere else on earth.
It was.so strange to hear an English
tourist make such remarks that Mr.
Booth came to the rescue with proof of
his sincerity by showing a part of a
diary he is writing on his travels for
the edification- of friends at - Bradford.
He had- written a plowing account of
Portland and sections of the Pacific
Coast he has seen while en route from
Frisco.
"Oregon women are the healthiest
and most wholesome-cppearing women
I have seen in all my travels," he said.
"I have visited African cities, the In
dies, Australia, China, Central America,
Canada, and parts of the United States,
but I have yet to see women who ap
pear a. beautiful.
" 'Portland is having a rose, fiesta.' ".
he read from his diary, "'and I have
never seen anything to equal-the roses
in this city. I. visited the Forestry
building and am. amazed at the dis
play. Roses are exhibited in. nameless
quantities, and this Is surely the city
of loses." "
Mr. Booth will spend several days
visiting the city and surrounding coun
try. He is a minute observer and 1s
greatly interested in the fruit-growing
sections.
"Oregon apples," he said, "are sold in
London as the best fancy apples on the
market, and we handle large quantities
of them, the Jonathans, Newtown Pip
pins and Spltsenbergs are - a great
drawing card'
"The best apple we grrow In England
for eating purposes is the Cox Orange
Pippin. The climate is against it, and
I would like to see the farmers of Ore
gon grow it. ,1 am sure it would reach
its best development in this state."
Beauty That Lasts.
Where is the woman who has not th
praiseworthy desire to enhance her -personal
charms and preserve as long as
possible her delightful power of enchant
ment, which lasts as long as her Beauty!
The Oriental Cream, prepared by Dr. T.
Felix Gouraud, of New York City, is a
harmless preparation for preserving the
delicacy of the complexion and removing
blemishes. It is the favorite toilet article
of 'the leading professional artists, who
owe so much of their popularity to their
personal charms. Scarcely a star dressing-room
in the land is without Gouraud'a
Oriental Cream, which ia the most whole
some and perfect beautifler known. Drug
gists will supply you.
