Fully 909 children, most of them less , than eight' years old, and many tiny toddlers and .babies tit bug-glee, all of them In gala costumes for the occasion, walked, fhopped, skipped, or were pushed or drawn 14 blocks through the heart of one of Portland's most beau tiful residence districts, , Every foot of the 1 . blocks was "lined with cheering thousands." The , babel of delighted acclaim was contin uous. " .- So that no mishap should occur, Po lice Captain . Inskeep and the members of the first night of the police de : . partroent -were on hand.
