GIVE DALLAS PUBLICITY Movement Afoot to Send Float and Delegation to Rose Festival In Portland. PASS FINAL EXAMINATIONS Diplomas Issued To Large Class Eighth Grade Pupils in Polk County. M. W. Wllklnn ofthn Wllklna' Real Estate Company, Is working, with a good prospect for success, to secure the interest and co-operation of the people of Dallas In a plan to arrange for a big representation of this city at the Rose Carnival in Portland on Monday, June 7. The assistance of the Merchants' Protective Association will be secured, and It Is the Intention to circulate a paper among the citizens of Dallas about Saturday for the purpose of raising funds to carry out tbe project. Briefly outlined the plan suggested bv Mr. Wilkins is as follows: The largest possible delegation of citizens and business men of Dallas Is to go down to Portland on June 7th. The members of tbe Dallas band have alreadv made known their willingness to go on the excursion and furnish music for the occasion. In addition to the Idea of sending a delegation of boosters for Dallas, It Is planned to enter one or more floats in tne nig parade. Tbe floats are to be gotten ud in an artistic manner and to con tain legends, lettered In roses, calling attention to Dallas as the Ideal place for a home. The Portland Rose Festival Is bound to attract an enormous crowd of per sons lust from the East. For that reason every city of importance in the Willamette Valley will vie witn us sister cities in an effort to attract the attention and interest of the new comers.
