bore painted California poppies, the
royal flower of the Golden State. The

Gown Exceeds Former Ones
A jeweled ruff, beautiful beyond de-
scription, completed the gown and
made 1t among the most magnificent,
If not the pick among all the gowns
worn by former fair ones elected to
the highest honor which Pasadena can
bestow.
The royal train of red velvet, outlined
with ermine and gold lace, hung from
the shoulders in undulating waves not
the least disordered by the lacings of
gold at the sides.
A crown of wonderful jewels and a
wand adorned with white satin rib
bons and surmounted with golden
tip, completed the costume.
The maids of honor wore princess
gowns of yellow silk, over which flowed
folds of yellow null of a lighter shade.
Prince of Wales feathers caught the
purple wells and long yellow gloves
clad the hands that held wands similar
to that of their queen, only smaller in
size.
Six outriders, dressed in the costume
of the same regime furnishing the
fashion for the dress of the queen and
her court, attended the royal float and
accompanied the queen and her maids
throughout the day. Yellow suits with
white stockings, black shoes with sill
yer buckles and white hats with wav-
ing plumes completed their costumes.
The pages on the float wore similar
costumes and the four little flower
girls scattered flowers from the float
to the admiring crowds lining the
street.
