In line.
Pilgrim Commandery No. SO, of
this city, and the Boys and Girls
band of 100 pieces will form an
intregal part of this parade.
The taking of the band to Min

Endorsed by the City Council by
resolution, as the officials realize

dous amount Of favorable publicity.
Taking part in the parade will
be an event in the lives Of the
boys and girls.
1t will be many years before the
knights Templar will hold their
conclave in the Twin Cities again.
The officers Of Pilgrim Command
cry have made ample arrange
ments for the care and comfort of
the young people on this trip. They
will be headquartered at the very
commodious and comfortable Cent
raj Lutheran church, from. the time
Of their arrival until they get in
line for the parade shortly after IL
o'clock, noon. The parade will
move from the Minneapolis Audi
forum at $50 A. M. The Minneso-
ia Communicates will make UP the
last section. While 1t will take
about five hours for the parade to
pass a given point, the Sank Cen
tire boys and girls will not be in
line long before they start. The line
OF march will be from the audi
forum down Second Avenue south
to Washington, from Washington
over to Nicollet, up Nicollet to
Tenth, from Tenth to Harmon
Place out to the Parade grounds.
It Is the desire Of the local Sir
Knights to have all the band men,
bers make the trip. II there are
those unable to make the march
they will not be expected to, but
they will have the outing.
The church where the head
quarters will be maintained is
about block from the Auditorium.
The start will be made from this
city at $3.50 A. M. Tuesday morn
ing. At the outskirts Of Minneap-
lis the Sank Centre cavalcade will
be met by an escort Of bicycle po-
lice and escorted across the city to
the church.
1t will take at least 40 automobiles
to transport the boys and girls to
Minneapolis and back. An active
drive to secure cars for the trip
has not been started as yet. One Of
the requirements Of those furnish
ing the cars is that they shall carry
ample liability insurance. It Is ex-
pected that the pace to Minneapolis
will be set at sufficient low rate
Of speed to permit the Sank Centre
cars to keep in line. It is also
planned to have trouble" car at
the rear Of the line.
II you desire to furnish your car
for the trip get in touch with v. G..
Wedge. Volunteers will be greatly
appreciated and will save a drive
for cars.
The ladies of the Lutheran
church will serve the band men,
bers and Sank Centre contingent
a wholesome lunch for so cents per
plate at HOO A. M. Ample parking
space has been provided adjacent
to the church for the Sank Centre
cars.
Arrangements are in the making
to provide the boys and girls with
a free show at one Of the better
theatres during the afternoon.
These details have not been work.
ed out as yet, however.
It will be a mighty fine thing II
parents Of children in the band
will take their autos and help trans
port the children. In many cases
other members Of the family will
go along to witness the biggest pa
rade and pageant ever seen in the
Northwest.
