Positive assurance that fully 2500 business men and their families representing- the leading; oltlea of California will attend the Seventh Annual Rose Festival the week of June 9-14, as the result nf the rftecnt Invasion of the Southland, has been received by W. C. Bristol, Crown Prince of Royal Rosari- ans. - In each instance It will mean the bringing; here next Summer of special trains.de luxe from Oakland. Sacra mento. San Francisco, Los Angeles, Pasadena and San Diego. Organization of "Rose Festival" Clubs is already being undertaken by the commercial bodies of several of these cities, and arrangements are under way for pullr ing off stunts something- similar to those which the Rosarians gave on their memorable tour. Pasadena has not only arranged to conduct a special excursion, but the Tournament of Roses Association has formed an auxiliary boosting organiza tion known as the "Royal Order of the Rose." which will have charge of the "works" while the Pasadenans are here. In the course of a letter to tBe Rose Festival outlining the Pasadena plans. President E- T. Oft. of the Tournament Association, says: 100 Already Signed l. We are very happy If your people enjoved our hospitality and we are al ready making plans to reciprocate your generosltr and co-opcratlon. and the Royal Order of the Rose' has been formed to take up this feature of the work. . "We have held several meetings and have practically 100 members signed up. It will be the cream of our city and I am sure we are going to enjoy much pleasure and benelit from our organiza tion." . , . The Royal Order of the Rose, which haj been formed In the Southern city. Is to perform a mission very similar to that which the Rosarians exempli fied In their invasion of California and will be a return compliment for that triP Provlding the funds raised for the support of the next Fesival will permit, an agreement will be signed up. with a moving-picture concern with a cir culation of 20.000.000 to bring Silas CtristolTerson, the noted Portland avi ator, here for a series of nights by day and night during which he will take "movies" from the clouds of all the scenic points of interest in and around Portland.

Moving picture operatives will ac company Chrlstofferson and take views of both sides of the Willamette during flights up that stream; also snap views of all the daylight parades and pa geants of the Rose Festival as they pass through the streets of the city. This feature, which would be repro duced all over the civilized world, can be arranged for providing the subscrip tions to the Festival fund are sufficient to defray the cost of bringing Christof ferson and his flying partner. Harry Fowler, here at that time. The Festival management considers that this will be one of the greatest attractions ever of fered to visitors, because of the achieve ments which the daring young aerial navigator has already accomplished. He was the flrst birdman ever to fly from the top of a skyscraper, having negotiated an aerial voyage from the top of the Multnomah Hotel during last Festival. He also demonstrated the feasibility of using the hydro-aeroplane In the life-saving service when he as sisted the Coos Bay life-savers In their efforts to rescue the crew of the Condor off that port several months ago. Sperlal Excursions Guaranteed. The next Rose Festival is already as sured of far greater crowds of visitors from "the outside than have ever been here before.

L FEBRUARY RECORDS ARE NOW ON SALE AT EILERS Mary Garden, David Bispham, Orville Harrold and Other ueieonues The new records for February are now obtainable at Eilers Music House, the Talking-Machine Headquarters. The February .list Is exceptionally notewor thy and Is headed by Mary Garden, the Scotch-American woman who has made French opera famous in this country. Her two most characteristic numbers from her chief operatic successes "De puis le Jour," from Charpentler"8 "Lou ise," and "L'Amour Est Une Vertu Rare," from Massenet's "Thais," are now obtainable. Mary Garden's suc cesses in most of these operas have made their chief roles peculiarly her own. Bispham Is again listed with a double-disc that comprises what are perhaps the two most perfect records that the great baritone has ever made. His superb rendering of Balfe's stately old song, "The Arrow and the Song," will delight everyone who has ever heard him in person. He has also made a new recording of "Annie Laurie," with orchestral accompaniment. Kathleen Parlow, the famous Cana dian violinist, is represented by Auer's "Valse Bluette" and the "Last Rose of Summer," one on either , side of a double-diso record. Miss Parlow's vio lin records have been particularly suc cessful from a musical and a popular standpoint and in the "Valse Bluette" she does some amazing technical work in harmonies. Madame Maeterlinck, who, apart from the fame which she enjoys as the wife of the famous author, is also well known under her name of Georgette Le Blanc as an opera singer of unusual eminence, is another great artist who is represented by a double-disc. Orville Harrold, the famous American tenor who was introduced to record buyers recently in standard opera num bers, ts this month featured In English song -the famous Godard's "Jocelyn Berceuse" and the favorite old Irish ballad, "The Snowy-Breasted Pearl." Another record that will be particu larly pleasing to Portland music-lovers is that of Jeska Swarty, the mezzo soprano who created nothing short of a sensation here with the Alice Nielson Opera Company. Her first double-disc comprises the popular "Flower Song" from Gounod's "Faust," and the great dramatic aria of "Joan of Arc," from Tschalkowsky's opera of that name.

Smith Tells of Bright Career Carved Out by Aviator and of World Flights. The death of Frank Boland, the avi ator who was dashed to the ground at Trinidad, Port of Spain, January 24, brought to a close at the age of 40 a life which held out even more hopes of fame for the future than had been earned in the past. Mrs. Frank L. Smith, of 1129 Thur man street, a cousin of Mr. Boland, told yesterday of his career. "He was a native of Railway, N. J., and his parents and brothers and sisters live there now. The family has been engaged In. the automobile busi ness and Frank,' ever since his early youth, was tinkering with an engine and studying mechanics. For a short time he also entered the automobile business, but the lure of aerial flight called him, and he devoted all his energies to aviation. "Last Fall he went South under a contract with the Venezuelan govern ment to demonstrate aviation for the army, and after finishing his course there, traveled all through South America, giving some wonderful flights at Buenos Aires. "He had expected and had made ar rangements to go to the Panama-Pacific Exposition In 1915 to give demon strations and to do some particularly daring flights he had been practicing. "He Is but another example of the men who. through knowing the danger, determine to risk their lives In solv ing the problem of aerial transition. Two years ago he had a bad fall, in juring himself severely, and ever since then his family and friends have been urging him to give it up. but he re fused, though he admitted he knew the risks he ran. "At one time the family were joking him about getting married, and he made the remark, "Don't you think I shall ever get married. No aviator would dream of doing so. It's too risky a game."
