This is only one instance of the interest as manifest by visits and telephone calls at all hours of the night while the committee is at work. The headquarters at 500 Main found necessary to open in adiition to the regular office in the Raphael store also has a night force which is tabulating votes in the eight contests and mak- ing arrangements for the vaby car- riage parade which will open the exposition. + On the first notice to mo(ln‘rs to bring their baby carriages and go- carts to be decorated more than 20 were brought to the headquarters. Industrious boys will do the deco- rating and as there are special pris- es to be given for the fanciest and best floats much secrecy as to in- dividual plans and ideas is prevalent among these embryo decorators.
