IIE Mlllll'llli AIMEE All the visitors to Iroquois Falls on Monday were impressed with the wonderful parade that was one of the big features of the Labour Day cele- bration at the Big Paper Town of the North hand. It is no exaggeration to refer to the parade as a "wonderful" one. This interesting feature has never been excelled by any similar event in the North Land. It showed a rare spirit of originality of design, cleverness and thoroughness in the de- tails ot' carrying out the various floats and other features. The result was certainly pleasing and interesting and its success may be considered as some reward for the great amount of time, study, talent and hard work that must have been involved, Another feature worthy of munnent is the fact that not only was every department of the Abitibi Company 's paper industry re- presented, but the men and women of all branches ot' the staffs seemed to enter into the spirit of the occasion and help its success by taking their part in the parade, There were fully 1000 men, women and children in the line of march. The otiice staff had a noteworthy turnout, the young ladies doing their bit as well as the men. The game idea was noticeable in the part of the Merchandizing Company in the parade. The judges must have had a .sriffkult time in selecting “the best" in the parade, though almost any de- partment could be pointed out as good. The 'Maehinists had a cleverly designed float, with the plan well ear ried out. Perhaps, thepyst interest- ing feature to the visitors, however, was the exhibit ofthé two electric pat per trucks. Thesesere, propelled by their own motive" power along the line of the parade. They carried two im- mense rolls of paper which they kept shifting to different positions as they made their safe and steady way along. But The Advance thinks that it would be digieult to excel the description of the parade made in the current issue of The Broke Hustler. It is interest- GREATEST I'llllllli fllfll " ill Tlif llllilllrl.llllll A Thousand Men, Fifteen Floats. Other Interesting Exhibits, in La- bour Day Parade at Iroquois trhere were close to a thousand men marching, including the children who formed one of the most interesting parts of the long line. The line was so long that as it circled round the north east end of the town' and back to the Civic Centre it formed a com- plete circle and lapped over, ing, to the point, and well within the facts. For the benefit of those read- ers who had the pleasure of seeing the parade and wish a reminder of its ex- earllenee, and for the advantage and information of any who missed the big feature, the following from yester- day's issue of The Broke Hustler is given below:--- The big idea of the parade wins to show the strength of Labor and the size of the Mill muster, bo'th of which it did with, great eiteptrveness. But the spectacular part of the procession was the fifteen tloats, and the gaily eaparisoned horses which drew them Through the streets. Nor was fun wantingdor the Paper makers had three clowns who got. tired walking and on the return trip mptured a farm rig in font of the De- vonshire and turned it into the pa- rade. Not satistled wth thie speed of the nag, one of them (climbed to the horse's bark and urged him forward with all his power. The horse, how- ever, had his own ideas and set his own pace which was not a mile it min- ate. The best Parade the North Country has ever seen was the unanimous ver- diet of the spectators as the Labor Day parade wound its way through the Town yesterday. The parade was to have started as soon as the early train came in, at ten o'clock. But owing to the heavy rain ot' the night and the delay thus caused in the finishing up of the floats, it was almost an hour later when T. H. Wilkesctbe Marshall in Chief, gave the word, the band struek up and the head af the procession moved off along Buckingham Street. The delay however did not spoil the humor of the crowd. Jokes itesr fat and furious and it seemed as if the good humor of the marchers was WEDNESDAY. SEPT. 7th., 1921.

It takes a good man to take a delay like that with a grin. tThe parade was in three divisions, first the Papermakers with Marshall Kilawee mounted on a dashing steed, at its head. Then the Iroquois Falls hand lending the Papermakers muster. Charlie Chaplin, red tie, stick and all, followed the band. Then came the first truck, a long roll of paper from No. 7 machine, 232 inches long, just the roll that machine turns out PA hours a day, six days a week. It ear- ried the legend "The World 's Great- est Paper Machine Produet--Union Made." Next came the men of the Paper Mill with Frank Stoughton as their head. The turn out was close to the total of the crews and reflected great credit on the Paper Mill. . A gaily decorated float with a num- ber of boys and girls singing patriotic' and popular songs next caught the eyes and ears of the spectators. t, ---Ahitibi. The Sulphite men believe in being right on the dot. They had seen the Oiiice sign in the morning “The Pen is mightier than the Pick” and in haste they rushed out a sign on roll wrapper paper st Without the-Pick the Pen would starve." This bit of repar- tee brought cheers from the crowd, though it was not till the second ryyul of the parade that most of the people got on to the joke. r, The Sulphite when were followecrby the Mixing Room workers. Trucks Make Pine Show ' One of the finest parts of the parade was the Finishing Room trucks which came next. Each carried a 1200 pound roll of paper just as it is prepared for shipment, and were gaily decorated with bunting. They bore a number of legends among them being that These trucks can handle a roll weighing 2000 pounds. This was followed by the men of the Sulphite mm with their motto- Little drops of water, ' Little 1fiUes of wood, Cooked with good strong 802 Makes the Paper good. "Just Painting" was the next, fol- lowed by the International Brother- hood of Firemen and Oilers. Machinists Pine Show The next section was one of the best.---') International Association of machinists. They had a float very carefully made with two men at work on their everyday jobs. The men fol- lowing were all Siressed in new spot- less blue denham union overalls. The Penpushers _-- The third division of the parade was the general one, taking in all the other departments. The Oftiee led, the men pushing a huge gold nibbed pen 25 feet long, to illustrate their common nickname of Penpushers. Behind the trucks came the crew of the Finishing Room looking splendid in their new spring caps and core pa- per sashes. The Core Room float was immediat- ely behind and worked in splendidly with the Finishing: Room. It was a handsome float made of cores of pink paper, with the inscription "We are the centre of the Industry." The Yard was next represented, w. H. Potter's Red Devil ear leading the crew. _ - The Service Division was next and it can be truly said that with little to work with they made a float which re- flected credit on their own depart- :ment and on the Mill itself. They (showed charts of the departments of the Mill, tracing how they were inter. woven in the general operation scheme and-impressed their own part with the device ""We serve all Depart- ments of the Mill." This was followed by the Engineer- ing department with a float "Plan your work and Work out your Plan," including blueprints and exhibits of the work of the department. The Forestry men walked behind them, followed by the Townsite, which had a float of a cabin, emtsletnatie-of all.the diverse functions pf the Town- site. The departments of the Town- site carried banners, Cookery, Devon- shire, Hotel Iroquois, LFJM. The l, Next in order came the Mill Stores with the design "Just enough, Never too Muéh, All Moving."
