The Prize Winning Montamara Festo Essay

tomobiledom; while the carnival
streets of the city will enfold festi-
val crowd of merry people and superb
professions.
Splendid things have already come
to pass in Tacoma's Stadium. But
who can anticipate to what extent
and height her entertainments shall
reach? The people of Tacoma, living
in an environment of supreme beauty,
pictured in Puget Sound, Mount Ia
coma, City Parks and pretty homes,
are gradually learning to express
these things indeed.
The Montamara Festo shall be one
of these expressions. The Stadium
was the result of the desire for a
place to express the Montamara
Festo shall be the expression. And
Tacoma is so pleased with all, that
she is asking the whole country to be
with her in these great days Of play
and patriotic rejoicing.
A week of play! Play is natures
way of teaching, and happiness is the
mood of growth. To learn, to be hap
py, and to grow that is the promise
Tacoma makes to you for the week of
the "Montamara Festo". She has
more to offer TO those who shall come
with her to stay, but shall write of
that some other time after the
"Montamara Festo" has entranced
you with her glory.
Your friend, JAMES RITCHIE. !

Dear Tom:
The "Montamara Festo" is the alb
-sorbing topic Of Tacoma people these
days, so I shall confine my letter to
it, and to the scene of most of the fes-
tivities-- our Stadium. Resembling
both the stadiums of Greece, and the
amphitheaters Of Rome, this vast
open auditorium of the Western
World is situated at the center of a
long semi -circluar hill that holds the
"Queen City of the Sound" high
above her magnificent commercial
waters, and ideal manufacturing dis
tricts of the flat delta.
It will be in this magnificent bay,
whose distant green shores are jew
eled with summer cottages facing the
sublime mountains, that the many
fascinating water sports and races
shall occur. Sitting above this beau
tiful harbor, we shall look down from
the hillsides of the Stadium to see the
gorgeous restoration Of luxurious
Aztec Mexico in the reign of Monte
yuma, and its conquest by Cortez; to
enjoy the sacred music of a mighty
chorus on Sunday afternoon; to ad-
mire physical skill and strength ex-
hibited in the athletic games on In
dependence Day; to witness the daz-
zling coronation ceremonies and fire
works on the night of July Fourth;
and to be thrilled by the feats of the
"birdmen" on Wednesday. And out
on the prairie there will be stupen-
dous races by the mighty men in au-

For the past four days the Charles

of Russell pictures in one of their big
show windows that has probably at
of the kind that has ever been shown
in this city.
A short time ago Mr.. Russell for
warded to John B. Ritch a couple OF
his best pictures, with the request
that they be exhibited in Lewistown.
Mr.. Ritch conferred with Oswald Leh-
man, of the Lehman Co., and they
agreed that a display of all the pic.
lures of the celebrated cowboy artist
that could be found in Lewistown
would be a splendid attraction. As a
result, they secured eight pictures, in
cluding the two consigned to Mr.
Ritch, which are now shown in the
Lehman window
The pictures include the picture of
lone, mounted Indian, owned by Mr..
Rudolf Won Tobel; another lone Indian
equestrian, owned by Mrs. w. w.
White; the big painting of the First
National Bank, showing Indians at
tacking a wagon trail; two pictures
owned by A. w. Stoddard, showing
cowboy and an Indian industriOusly
engaged in the national game of draw
poker, the latter picture telling of the
