Of Divisions.

Of City VIII he Represented
sna Display Premises to
Ne Most Gorgeous one
Ever Viewed Here.

One of the most pleasing, and whai
will prove to be q most Interesting and
practical feature of fair week in Mont
gomery, will be the celebration OF
Greater Montgomery Day next
Thursday.
Plans that are being made under
the direction of Secretary LYMAN OF
the Commercial Club. call for one oil
the NOSE elaborate and unique street
pageants witnessed in this city.
The feature of the celebration will
be street parade that will feature
the enterprises and Industries OF Mont
gomery. For several days merchants
and manufacturers of the city have
been sounded on the proposition Of en-
tering the parade by representation
through their wagons. and especially
constructed floats. and the response
to the idea has been a most hearty
one.
Indeed. so general has been the &C.
quiesence in the idea that almost
every business in the city boasting a
delivery wagon or similar carrier will
take part. In some instances, effec-
tive and attractive floats are being
built. and the spectacle promises to
be one well worth viewing and going
or coming, as the case may be. q long
journey to see.
1t is planned to divide the parade
into divisions each headed by q mar
shall and to have the entire line OF
marchers under the direction OF Sec
rotary Hyman as grand marshal. In
the role of this ofiicial. Secretay Hy-
man will have numbers of aides on
horseback. and 1t Is hoped that q
touch of grace can be added to this
part of the pageant by the presence
OF numbers of mounted young women
Then there's an automobile division
planned. There are numbers of cars
owned In Montgomery and every own
er Is asked earnestly to decorate his
car and fill his tank with gasoline and
join in the parade. 1t Is desired es-
pecially that the seats In the cars be
occupied as the success of the parade
depends as much on the presence OF
hosts OF marchers and those riding az
1t does on the presence of a large
number of vehicles and horses.
Still other features OF the parade
VIII be the presence of detachment
OF the States military. Cavalry, in.
fantry. the artillery and signal corps
will take part. Gaudy trappings fol
horses and festoons for vehicles are Il
be provided. 1t Is said. by the grand
marshal. and the undecorated car will
be the exception.
