Thousands of the citizens Joined in the celebration. The auditorium festivity ias participated in by a gay 'throng ot Sfative Sons' and Daughters, who, to music furnished bv the' Charles IX Smith bmd of Oiik-land. danced until ablate hour.

The fireworks display at Lake Merritt was witnessed hy a large concourse. Red flares bjazed the route of the Skyline Boulevard. Symbolic of the linking up of Oakland with her unrivaled scenic attractions by the Skyline Boulevard, an unbroken chain of automobiles stretching from the city hall to the hilltops overr looking Alameda and Contra Costa counties, will long be remembered as one forming th'e most Impressive dedication In the city's history. Age youth combined in celebrating the occasion, of the opening of what has been termed -one of the greatest scenic roads in the west. At the-highest point of the hill climb overlooking the bay, the trading cars were greeted by an aged man, who, from his appearance, might have been a hermit and who doffed his hat and gave a feeble cheer as theJiead of the procession swept away.

SURPRISED BY GIRLS. It was thought by many that dedication ceremonies would be held 1n the natural amphitheater near; the junction of the Skyline Boulevard and the Tunnel road" but the parade continued down through Claremont and Piedmont without a half. Before reaching. Piedmont Park where refreshments were served, a pleasant surprise awaited the a'utoists. A'g the first of the cars reached the Technical High Bchool a bevy of pretty girls ran out loaded with bouquets of flowers and packets of colored postcard Views of Oakland which they presented to the autoists.

Miss Myrtle Harlow ptrined a rose on Mayor Davie. Among the flower and postcard' distributors were Miss Margaret Larsen, Miss Winifred Lutx and Miss Margaret Avery.
