Ttie proposition that Tillamook County be represented at the Rose Festival in Portland met with gene ral favor this morning amongst some of the business men Jt is proposed to have a float, an excel lent design having been sent in by Ralph Ackley, the main features on which are a cow, a large cheese that is cut, the horn of plenty, butter boxes, a queen and maids, and on the sides pictures representing the lumber and logging industry. M Ackley writes as follows : Portland, May 23, 1911. Mr. Rollie W. Watson, Tillamook. D ear F riend ,—I am submitting two designs and bids on proposed flouts representing Tillamook Conn, ty in the coming Rose Festival par ades. 1 explained to both companies submitting designs about what I thought representative of the coun ty’s industries. The cost of’the floats will be $215 and $225, as shown on the designs which I send by this mail, together with a description of each attached. The extra cost of getting a wagon and team, as well as a driver would be about $25 or $30 unless you should arrange to bring a team over from Tillamook, which you The entire might find cheaper. cost should not be over $250. You will notice that one of the flouts requiriee two queens and 1 would suggest that you start a vot ing contest, thereby raising suffi cient funds to defray the entire cost. I will make a donation of $25.00 to start the thing going pro viding you will raise the balance in Tillamook. Unless we receive favorable reply by Saturday of this week, and a prompt return of the designs, we will not be able to get them out in time for the festival. If you will phone me that the money will be raised I will make the first payment of $25 and start them to work. I frankly believe you would get more advertising in this way than any other way I know of. You rea- Hze that cuts of nil floats appear, not only in the Fortland papers, but in other papers throughout the country, in magazines, nnd in mov ing picture shown throughout the world, on post curds, etc. The absence of representation in the Festival of last year*of Tilla mook County was noticable and n subject of comment, Kindly get quick action. Respectfully yours, R alph A ckley . To raise the necessary funds it is proposed to have a voting contest for queen, and to start with, the fol lowing names of young ladies have been suggested for queen : Misses Ollie Ciise, Helen Harrison, Gladys Beals, Veronica Melchior, Jennie Wooley, Vida Rogers, Bolan De Lillies and others. The matter was taken up by the Executive Board of the Commercial Club this afternoon and turned over to the Publicity Committee. The contest will start this evening nt the electric dance in the club rooms. W. J. STEPHENS, Distributor for Tillamook, Ore fight ; I have finished my course ; I I have kept the faith."
