An effort has been made to have the

buildings will be lighted on the interior
for exhibit purposes. and on the ex-

! One hundred thousand lights will make
the entire grounds as light as day and
shed glow on the waters of Guild S
Lake and the Willamette river that will
be seen for miles around. Besides the
outline effect on the buildings. lights
are being strung along every boulevard
and avenue: they viii blaze from the

Following the lead OF the st. Louis
fair it had been planned to have a
Filipino village at the Lewis and Clark
exposition, All arrangements had been
completed and the Ig0rrotes had ar
rived in this country, when hitch
arose. Their managers and the au-
thorities of the fair could not agree on
the terms. Consequently there is now
some doubt as to whether or not the
dos-eaters will be present during the
fair.
The attractions TO be found on the
Trail are as varied as the moods of a
musician In addition TO those with
which the public has become familiar
at other fairs, are "A number particularly

One of the most remarkable attrac-
tons at the Trail is the telephone
through which the speak er may see the
party he is addressing This is per-
haps the most wonderful invention Of
the age, and one that sh3uld prove OF
unusual interest TO the Trailer. In APP
