BIG CHORUS FOR THE FAIR.

tjon for Attraction,

well-known local choral conductor, has
! written to President II. w. Goode OF
the Lewis and Clark exposition, outIin-
Ing plans for a grand musical festival
during the 1905 fair. Mr.. BoyeTs plan
Is to have this festival cover a period
OF three or five days, to be participated
In by a grand chorus Of 400 or 500
voices from Oregon towns thus making
II state affair. Mr. Boyer has conf
dence that Oregon's musical talent Is
In all respects adequate for such an
enterprise. and thinks the cost would
not be so considerable.
AS an estimate Of the cost Mr.. Boyer
places the figures on a basis ranging
from $4,000 to $4,000, exclusive Of ad-
yertlslng. IT was decided at one OF
the recent meetings Of the Willamette
Valley Choral Association that the next
meetings Of the association would be
held In Portland during the fair, and II
the proposition offered Is accepted, vis.
itors to the fair will be given an op-
portunity Of hearing some OF the mas
terpieces of the worlds music pre-
sented by a magnificent chorus Of
trained voices. and the beauty OF It all
will be that Oregon win furnish this
music.
1t Is believed that this enterprise
could be employed by the fair as a
good gate-receipt Investment.
