deal Of interest. They enjoyed being
the Indians, as a hundred or more
were attired; or the cowboys, miners,
railroad builders or the pioneers, who
first PLACED the way for the region as
it is today They were all in costume.
The Indians, gay i'm their war paint,
represented the first period. There
were the tepees, papoOses, the plant
ing Of the village by the squaws, the
war dance by the braves, and the
famous Indian characters.
Then came the pioneer period with
Lieutenant Zebulon Pike discovering
Pixies Peak. The first railroad was
built and the first train sent into Col
orado Springs. General Palmer,
founder Of Colorado Springs, was rep
resented. The mining period followed
with the prosp5ctOrs at work and
travelling with pixies Peak or Bust"
emblazoned on their prairie schOon-
ers. Shaft mining, drilling, the
windlass and the rich strike were
represented. Spectators were pre-
sented with gold" nuggets by the
young miners. Then came the ad-
