Entrants/ were numerous and fancy costumes of all kinds were to be seen, showing both thought and work, The parade was led by a piper and the scene was one that revived memories of "The Pied Piper of Hamlin Town," as the piper marched round and roundthe spacious tennis courts leading the procession° of little ones past the judges' table.
