PARADE JUDGES REPORT General ExceJIence of Entries .Makes Their Task a Dlffirtilt OneFirst Prize for the Finest Fraternal Float Awarded to Elks. Fiesta week is at an end. Success in every way attended Its course and every purpose for which the carnival was planned has been served. Port land's wondrous scenic and floral J it - i ' . it - SIM r - MRS. F. B. BAl MOARTNER'S beauty has again been emphasized and the spirit of the fiesta has made its Impress on the public mind. It has blazed the way for greater rose carn ivals in future years, so that the yearly fiesta Ib assured. There was no formal programme yes terday. Prizes for the floral parade were offered, automobile races were held, there were two novel ball games by amateur teams and a spectacular run of Portland fire apparatus il lumined witl red Are. The weather was comfortably warm but not until well along in the afternoon did the sun manage to forge its way to the front and take charge of the sky. With the fiesta barely ended plans are already on foot to establish a per manent organization for carrying out a similar carnival on a larger scale next year and each succeeding year. While this year's rose show has been successful beyond expectations, it is admitted that the possibilities have hardly been touched. Given months rather than weeks in which to perfect plans and enlist public interest and jupport. hte carnivals of the future can be made second to none that have ever been held in the world's greatest centers of flowers and beauty. Port land has the material ready and waft ing to he put to use. It is likely that a meeting for the purpose of effecting permanent organization will be held within the next week or 10 days.

The following statement accompanied the Judges report on awards: Statement of Judges. "The judges have found it exceedingly difficult to decide between contestants because there were so many exhibits closely resembling each other in taste and e i i. 'sVi irv FIRST TROPHY WI.VNEH I.V AUTOMOBILES TOURLVB CAR SUCTION. beauty. Another difficulty has been the failure of many exhibitors to enter their names at headQuarters. Another commit tee has been confined to the names en tered. In future to avoid the difficulty mentioned the committee suggests that all who intend to participate in these festivals should enter their names either for cash prizes or trophies, and bear some distinguishing mark in the procession so that the judges may the more easily per form & duty, which at best is exceeding ly embarrassing." The committee was made up of George H. TVilliams, George E. Chamberlain, Dr. Harry Lane, Mrs. Rose H. Hoyt, Mrs. Ralph W. Hoyt and Lionel R. Webster. John F. Cordray, the theatrical man, and J. A. Davis are receiving con gratulations for their designing and decorating of the Elks float in the fiesta parade, which won first prize. Both worked like beavers in completing the float, and deserve no little credit for tl)e success of the float. GAVE GENEROUSLY OP ROSES People Responded Liberally, Says Mrs. C. R. Templeton. Mrs. C. R. Templeton. who had charge of the work of gathering the KlLTXOWtH AMATEl'R ATHM3TIC CLUB'S PBIISXWINMNG FLOAT. roses and other flowers and greens for decorating the Forestry building during the rose show, says that the fine results accomplished were due in a large measure to the hearty co-operation of those who assisted her. Mrs. Templeton selected a committee of young women and girls and then di vided the city into a number of dis tricts, each one of the sub-committees being responsible for gathering al the decorative material possible within the district to which Its members bad been assigned. "The rose-growers and amateur florists, -as well as those who had only a modest little garden, helped us out wonderfully," said Mrs Templeton, last night. "The women who assisted me worked faithfully from the day we be gan preparing for the how. They did their work systematically and were greeted cordially everywhere they went. I am sure the show would not have been the ouccees it was had not the public assisted us so loyally. The spirit of co-operation was general, and so freely and unhesitatingly were the roses given, that our work was les sened by half. The people gave, not only their roses, but the best of them, and many of the choicest roses grown in the city, instead of being placed on exhibit in competition for the prizes, were turned over to us for mere dec orations." The Kiser Photo Company, official photographers of the Rose Fiesta and Carnival, secured many excellent pho tographs of both the children' parade and the Fiesta parade on Friday, as well as photographs of the individual floats. Proofs of these photographs will be on exhibit in the Imperial Hotel lobby Monday. PLAY BALL FOR MISSION Doctors and Lawyers Defeat Bank ers In Multnomah Field. The baseball game played on the Mult nomah Field yaste'rday afternoon be tween the bankers and doctors and law yers, for the benefit of the Flower Mis sion Day Nursery, resulted in a score of 5 to 2 in favor of the doctors and law yer si The game was followed with much in terest by a large crowd, and the excellent playing of the teams won frequent ap plause. The doctors and lawyers made their scores in the second and third and fourth innings, while the bankers made theirs in the sixth and seventh. Campbell and Fenton did good work in J . 1 Si ' the pitcher's box. Stott made the only long hit of the day, a three-bagger. The batting of Fenton and Stott was reward ed with bouquets of roses from the grand stand. Music was furnished during the after noon by the Marine Band from the Charleston. Frank Watklns, of the Mult nomah Club, assisted by Mrs. J. R. Ste phens and Miss Putnam, had charge of the lemonade stand. Members of the Multnomah Club acted as vendors of pop corn and peanuts. An amusing incident occurred just be fore the game was called, when George Holman. in charge of the field, announced that the ladies of the Flower Mission took pleasure in introducing their team of ballplayers, especially imported for the occasion. A roar of laughter went up from the spectators when it was found that the team referred to consisted of Governor Chamberlain, Judge Williams and Mayor Lane. The efforts of Mayor Lane to hit the balls pitched by the Gov ernor afforded much amusement. Judge .Williams, who acted as umpire, counted the Mayor out. which was followed by cheers and laughter. Each was presented with a large bouquet of roses. The game was a success In every way. The ladies of the Flower Mission ex pressed themselves as gratified with the result of the afternoon's entertainment. Among those who witnessed the game. beside those mentiond. were the officers and quite a number of the crew, from the Charleston. Reorganization of the C. R. & X.

Leatberman. a veteran schoolteacher, who spent 30 years in the schools of Oregon and organized tbe Montavllla school 16 years ago. spent sev eral days in Portland last week. Ha was the guest of honon at tha reunion held in the Montavllla schoolhouse Friday night. Introduced by the principal. N. W. Bow land, he delivered a happy address, say ing in part: "It affords me great pleasure and sat isfaction to attend this reunion, and while I recognise the old school House and many of the old pupils, I find many improve ments are under way. The foundation tor this addition in the rear of the build ing in which I taught tells me that 'you have outgrown the facilities and need more room. I am surprised at the re markable growth of Montavllla. It has certainly held Its own as one of the most progressive suburbs of Portland. "I want to say that In all my experi ence as teacher in the public schools of Oregon I never met a more loyal people. No matter what the differences among the people might be. whether the people f - - I wp were opposed to or favorable to me, they were loyal to this school. No school dis trict in the state ever shouldered such burdens. The taxpayers voted bigger taxes than any district in Oregon, at a time when there was a financial slump and it was hard to get money with which to pay taxes. "I spent S3 years In the schoolroom, hut now I have become a fruitgrower, and I love the work. I am still a student, and I want to say to these young men and women that never has there been & time when more thorough equipment was needed than at present. The young man who Is eager to get into the harness and make money soon finds himself seriously handicapped and left in the race by those who secured thorough preparation. If you wish to reach the top, don't be in a hurry, but take time for ample prepara tion. The world demands and requires skilled men who are specialists. "I Bee that there is a tendency among the boys to stop when they reach the seventh grade and enter some money making occupation, while the girls stay in school. The boys make a serious mis take. They find it out when it is too late, when they are outstripped by those who delayed entering business life until they were prepared for it. Boys and girls, take the advice of an old teacher, who has made a life study of the questions FLOAT, WINNER OF SECOND PRIZE of preparation, and stay with the schools until you are equipped to enter a profes sion or business."
