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."
