MARDI GRAS
CELEBRATION
Unusual Preparation Being
Made for the Big
Event Here.

Interest is everywhere being mani
tested in PenSacOla'S MarCii GraS car
nivaI, Feb. % and %. this year be-
cause Of the fact that some startling
innovations are promised over the
customary Mardi Gras celebration.
Mardi Gras, literally translated into
everyday, unadorned AngiO-SaXon,
means the festival OF Fat Tuesday,
a day OF feasting, fun and frolic i'm
mediately preceding the Lenten sea-
son of mans supposed retirement of
forty days from the friYolitieS Of this
old sin-cuiSed world.
The exact date of the Inauguration
of the feast is not definitely record
ed, but IL is known to have been Of
pagan origin. Early in the Christian
era, however, it was adopted as the
feast of ShTOve Tuesday, the day pre-
ceding Ash Wednesday, the first day
OF Lent.
Its earliest celebration as a Chris
tan festival occurred in the Eternal
City OF Rome, where il is still observe
ed with great magnificence and gilt
teTing splendOr.
In 1900, an organized celebration OF
MaTdi Gras was iBauguTated at Pen
sacola, Florida. and ever since then
the Deep Water City's carnivals have
come to be regarded as one of the
most attractive features of a mid
winter visit 10 the Gulf coast Indeed
MaTdi GTas is PensacoIa's annual gala
occasion, and justly so, since all Pen
sacOla enters into the true spirit OF
the occasion and makes IL a genuine
holiday devoted to fun, froIic and
frivolities, and a hearty, hospitable
entertainment Of its guests.
The celebration occurs this year on
Eahr
and %. and will be on a scale of mag
nificence which was not dreamed pos
sible of attainment when PensacOla's
first carnival was undertaken nine
years ago.
