WACK & CO DAKS OPENS WITH NEW ATTRACTIONS The Oaks popular amusement park has opened for the 1923 summer sea son with many new attractions to please and entertain both young and old. The park will be under the man agement of Mr. Cordray. The Oaks has had a general over hauling and has been brightening and renewed in appearance and many new features have been added. The famous Chiafarelli band of 40 pieces gave free concerts Sunday af ternoon and will be a big drawing card at the amusement park. One of the features which has ap pealed to many Gresham young peo ple is the fine roller skating rink. This has been open all the winter and will continue to afford pleasur able and healthful amusement during the summer. The rink is one of the largest on the coast, the floor has re cently been put in fine condition and the order is satisfactory. Pour water on some common ground, leave it for several hours, and then dig into, and you will see for yourself how long It takes water to soak into the ground. Flooding does not make it soak in any faster. For this reason it is best to use sprinklers for watering lawns." Successors to Bishop Bros.
