OREGON Armistice Day Celebrations DAHLIA TEM PLE SETS PACE (By Botts) Enthusiastic over r e c a l l i n g the thought of peace after our World war, rainfall had no effect, Nov. 11 th, on the completeness of the parade or the lafgeness of the crowd to witness it. The long lines of representative busi ness and civic units, the abundance of national decorations, the variety of in terests manifested from all angles, and the execution of appropriate musical selections gave the occasion a most unique place in the history of celebra tions, and of itself paid a glowing tribute to the designers of same. Note worthy in the long train of paraders just behind the ex-soldiers, who were continuously applauded for valor and patriotism, was an auto moving noise lessly, and as it seemed by some un seen hand, bearing in front an Elk's head (said to be a contribution to the affair by the Stag Club) with its horns protruding amidst decorations of pink, red, white and blue; diverging from horn-tips* to front corner tops of auto, whose whole top was covered with “Old Glory”, were streamers of like colors made of tar«tan; its rear was banked most artistically with green in terspersed with pink and white chrys anthemums, and in harmony with other decorated parts of the auto was further set off with bows and rosettes in the four said colors; and in the auto rode five women w e a r i n g trench caps, badges and sashes in accord with facial expression of loyalty, fraternalism. pa triotism and franchisement. These were daughters of I. B. P. O. E. of W., Dahlia Temple No. 202, viz.: Daughters I del la Harris, trustee; Mar ion McClear, t r u s t e e ; Zulu Lowe, Onieda Harjo, and Beatrice H.
