That Pendleton is an "auto town"
was again demonstrated Saturday eve
ming when the fourth of July cele-
bration was closed in the proverbial
"blaze of glory" by grand illumi-
mated parade in which the buzz
wagons" were the feature.
1t was nearly $3.50 when the night
parade started north on Main street
from the fair pavilion. The process
sion was headed by the 14th cavalry
band and Immediately behind the
musicians came the auto brigade. A
score or more were in line. Each car
was filled with the relatives or friends
of the owners and with red fire upon
the streets and the torches carried
by the car occupants the parade was
made one blaze of light.
As the line passed down Main street
and out upon East Court street the
thousands along the street cheered.
The decorated autos came in for es-
pecial applause and the Pendleton
band, which brought up the rear of
the column. was hailed with delight.
The procession returned by Water
street TO Main and going south to the
railroad yards countermarched back
to the intersection of Main and Court.
There the autos dispersed and the two
bands were merged into one and joined
in playing the guard mount march.
The bands were then dismissed and
the Pendleton musicians struggled up
Court street to the tune of Hot time
in the old town tonight" while the
cavalrymen headed down Main street
and expressed their feelings by play
ing "The girl l left behind me-"

him ask himself whether the power SO
