PASADENA, March 5.--Because OF
conflicting dates, the time of the Pasa-
dena horse show, which promises to be
one of the finest entertainments ever
arranged in the city, has been changed
to April, s, and s.
None of the important details have
been changed, and owners of fine
horses are beginning to make inquiries
in regard to entries.
Not only in Pasadena Is there eager
enthusiasm among society people in
regard to the show, but from Los An
geles and Santa Barbara many fine
horses will be entered by their owners.
w. ]. Hogan of Louisville, KY, who
is spending the season at the Mary
land, and who has been identified for
years with the successful horse shows
at that place. is giving the directors
here all kinds of excellent advice and
suggestions in regard to the many inn
portant details for the show.
1t is planned to build at the Tourna-
ment park, where the show will be
held, many sheds and paddocks, and
the grandstand will be rooted
Plan State Convention
The next large convention for this
city will be that of the California
Womens s. Christian Temperance Union,
which comes here for four days ses-
sion beginning Tuesday May 8. Mrs,
Lillian NJ. Stevens, president of the
national organization, and Miss Anna
L. Gordon. vice president-at-large will
be the distinguished guests of the city
during the convention. They will be
in Southern California during the latter
part of April and early May, to make
arrangements for the great national
w. C. T. U. convention to be held in
Los Angeles next October
The state gathering in May will
bring to the city over two hundred
delegates, who will be given places in
local homes for lodging and breakfast
only. While the place of meeting has
not yet been determined upon, many
of the details of the program have al
ready been settled. The state officers
together with the local leaders have
the arrangement of the program, but it
is certain that the first evening will
be devoted to addresses from Mrs. Ste
vens and Miss Gordon. and that
as Miss Gordon is especially happy
with children.
Amateur Orators to Compete
Thursday evening is to be given over
to a grand gold medal contest, when
young people from all over the state
will compete for the beautiful medal
offered for the best orator upon tenn
perance themes. The winner will COM
pete at the national convention next
fall for the diamond medal.
At the state convention many plans
will be made for the larger gathering
of white ribboners in the fall. In this
convention, Pasadena will take a prom
nent share, since it is planned to rent
house and entertain all the state
presidents the ten days of the conven-
tion, the Pasadena women bearing the
expense. 1t is also planned to have
pasadena day." when the scores of
guests may be given a drive about the
city, with luncheon served by the
local women.
For the May convention, the local
white ribboners hope for the hearty
cooperation of the board of trade and
Merchants association of Pasadena in
securing very general decoration of
the streets and business windows with
appropriate flags and white ribbon
decorations as a welcome and courtesy
to the guests.
To Continue Revival
The two Northfield evangelists, Revs.
H. w. Pope and w. f. Newton, who
have been holding meetings at the Lake
Avenue congregational church the past
week and will continue through the
next, have been unusually successful
in their efforts.
A unique feature of the meetings has
been normal class for working Chris
tians, in which the many objections of
those outside of Christ are met with
strong verses from the bible. A num-
Der of conversions have" been reported.
