Portland Rose Festival
June 8-9-10
1921
Portland, Oregon
ORTLAND'S gates are open wide. The City of Roses welcomes all the guests within her borders. The Rose Festival is a time for making merry. It is a time to forget care and to rejoice. The city's rose gardens make of Portland a great garden of roses. Among the flowers our pageantry will be conducted, our Festival Queen will be crowned, our royal regatta and water sports will be held and the voices of our most eloquent speakers and sweetest singers will be carried to the multitude of merrymakers by that miracle device, the Bell tone amplifier, which last was used to carry the voice of the President of the United States at the time of his inaugural to the greatest crowd that had ever assembled in the National Capitol. Let all gain fullest pleasure from these festival days.

"For You A Rose In Portland Grows'
PORTLAND, CITY OF ROSES Is the natural gateway for a vast and fertile territory within the Columbia Basin, embracing an area equal to that of the States of Illinois, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York and the whole of the New England. "The Columbia, viewed from the sea to the mountains, is like a rugged, broad-topped, picturesque old oak, about six thousand miles long, and, measured across the spread of its upper boughs, nearly a thousand miles wide." The people of this thoroughly modern city are growing into the greatness of their natural surroundings.   The resources of the Oregon country are ap-
parently boundless. [ Her fertile fields and giant forests, her factories, shipyards, mills, mines and quarries, are yielding rich returns. The mighty hydraulic forces of the mountains are also being utilized with excellent results.
One of the most striking tributes that could be paid to the climate and soil of Oregon is that Portland, the chief city of the State has won a clear title to "The Rose City." One finds roses blooming everywhere in Portland, and the luxuriant growth of bushes, the number and beauty of the blooms, attract unqualified praise and admiration on the part of rose experts as well as the general public.
