B|G MOOSE DAY 0N THE FOURTH
 AT RIVERSIDE
Growing Lodge Plans Big Celebration at Popular Park and Invites Other Lodges to Join in the Pleasures

 details were arranged with the Riverside park management yester day and the executive committee of the Moose Day celebration immedi ately thereafter authorized full pub licity of the movement that has been afoot fo., the past two or three weeks to give the members of the lies, and friends, as well as hun dreds who will journey by special trains from Winkelman, Hayden, Ray, Florence, Mesa, Tempe and Buckeye, a day overflowing with amusements, a day and an evening with all the pleasures of the sea shore at half the expense and twice the comfort
 With the official sanction of the Phoenix lodge, the executive com mittee yesterday put the finishing touches to the work of starting the big ball a rolling. The complete committees were selected yesterday afternoon, and several of them be- gan working before the others had been filled out. The spirit that has brought the Moose lodge to the fore ranks of fraternal organizations in Phoenix actuates every member to- day in boosting for the Fourth, the greatest Fourth ever held in Phoenix.
 The tentative plans for the Moose Day doings call for a brilliant par ade of members of the order, other f.aternal organizations, automobiles, motorcycles and such civic bodies as may agree to take part Invitations will be extended to every lodge in Phoenix to become identified with the Moose the one day and to enjoy the full Inequalities of the order and the pleasures of the park.
 At the park there will be motor cle races in the morning, water and track events in the afternoon and a brilliant display of fireworks in the evening. Bands will furnish music not only for the parade but for the merrymakers at the park, while a symphony orchestra will oc- Cupy the gallery in the dancing pa villion. There will be free moving pictures in the evening. There will be speaking by some of the best orators in the valleys and there will be those midway features that only the Moose will know how to put on.
 The park management has become quite ''mooseified" and has gone the lodge one better at every turn Wherever the lodge proposed one feature calculated to afford enter tainment or amusement for the thou sands that are bound to throng the park that day, the park manage ment has been quick to propose something on it's own initiative and at it's own expense. And the park takes to itself no particular credit It is to be Moose Day at the park and the Riverside park company has already begun to so advertise it.
 Of course there will be a midway This will be Moose Midway eX- clusively. There friends of the order will make their little contributions to the lodge and receive in exchange Moose money which will be good al any place upon the grounds. There will be games of chance whereby this Moose money will be accepted the country store where goods may be purchased" and even the three card monte" where the Moose coin may be squandered O. doubled While everybody purchasing Moose money will be made to understand that the real coin has already gone to swell the fund the Moose are raising to clear the debt on the new Phoenix home, they will also be en- frightened as to the enjoyments pos sible even with the fiat money.
