FOR TOTS If PARADE
TWO OF THE LATEST CANDIDATES ENTERED IN THE CONTEST FOR
ROSE FESTIVAL QUEEN.
Entertainment of 'Participants
in Big Rose Festival Event

Tin- children's parade in the Rose
Festival this year will be held on the
West 'sid. its the opening-day feature
of the Festival, on June 7, Instead of on
the East Side, where it has been the
special Festival feature fur many sea
sons. Tiie change from the East to tne
West Side of the Willamette Kiver was
announced in the tentative programme
of the Festival, and at a special meet
in; held to consider requests to keep
this pageant on the East Side the Fes
tival board voted to present the spec
tacle in the business district of the
West Side.
One of the main reasons for the
change has been the publicity to be de
rived for Portland as a result of the
photographs, both in motion pictures
and newspaper and magazine advertis
ing. With the parade on the West
Side. Portland's business district will
be shown to fine advantage in the ex
ploitation of the June Show following
the close of the enterprise.
Same Dinlanre to lie Trmvemed.
In a statement issued yesterday from
Festival headquarters it was announced
that the parade will be featured on the
West Side the morning of June 7 at
9:45 o'clock. The line of march will
, covrr the same distance as on the East
Side, and the pageant will pa the
Courthouse. City Hall, theaters, hotels
and many stores and office buildings.
It is the belief of the Festival man
. agement that, inasmuch as thousands
of people on the West Side have never
seen this feature of the Festival, the
change should be made. After inves
tigation it was found there were fully
DO.OOt) people in Portland, many resi
dents of the Kant Side working in the
business district, had never seen thia
parade.
Many business men have children in
this parade and have never seen the
wonderful procession. If the morning
Is warm, say Festival directors, the
tall buildings will offer shade as a
protection to the youngsters.
Entertainment la Considered.
The Festival governors also believed
that the children should be taken into
consideration and have aome pleasure
out of the Festival after the conclusion
of the pageant- It would present a
beautiful sii;ht, say Festival governors,
to have thousands of children in cos
tume on the streets after the conclusion
of the event.
It will give many children an oppor
tunity to view the Festival Center, the
downtown decorations, and. in many
cases, be the only opportunity many
children will have to view the West
Side decorations during the Festival
period.
Arrangements also Have been made
for the housing of the children before
and after the parade in the Lincoln
High, the two Shattuck schools and the
I -add School. Parents will know Just
in what room their children may be
found and they will be in telephone
communication before and after the pa
rade. Shelter Provided In Cane of Rain.
Should it rain the children with their
beautiful costumes will not be exposed
to the elements and could remain in
comfort for an. hour or more if neces
sary. It has been learned definitely that
the children can be handled by the
street car company on the West Side as
easily as on the East Side. Further
more, the children all will have rest
room privileges, both before and after
the parade, and on returning to the
schools will hav their lunches. It has
been suggested that each child bring
lunch the same as a school day. Re
freshments also will be provided by the
festival workers.
Already indications are that the
pageant this year will be one of the
greatest in the history of the Festival,
and many new and spectacular features
are being provided. The hearty co-operation
of more than 50 principals of
public schools has been obtained and
all arrangements are being perfected
for the parade on the west side of the
river.
