This was done after going carefully over the re'ative advantages of each and we think will suit all better. Central Riverside has better shade, better grass and water, better parking facilities, plenty of room for sports, and more accessible. | Owing to necessity of waiting until the exact number of cars and floats are reported before we can plan the parade assembly on the plab the map showing parade route and your exact location for assembly of cars for parade will either be mailed to you on Friday evening or delivered to your address on following Saturday morning.

Passenger cars will be parked inside, park, but floats keep 10 feet between all cars and floats in parade. If a stop becomes necessary give stop signal at once,.
