Abilene weekly reflector. [volume] (Abilene, Kan.) 1888-1935, 1910-04-21

Besides there had been a week Of
the kind Of festivities that Shriners
enjoy, with thousands Of visitors
making the old town gay. The peo-
pie said the decorations we're far
finer, the parades more resplendent
and the crowds larger than at Mardi
Gras. The floats Of the famous cele-
bration were used, 50 there was prac-
tically reproduction Of that event.
Added to this was the presence Of
the ShrIners and well, It was a
lively occasion. New Orleans prides
itself on It's oddities. It's French
quarter has become a show place.
1t has changed Its character with the
years and every store and cafe plays
to the sightseer. Like all southern
cities there is wide-openess about
It that strikes the sedate visitor from
the north strangely. When the naysl
or gave permission to mask, the ten-H
derloin turned put and mingled with
the crowds, making a picturesque If
not an edifying spectacle.
