MILITARY SCENES AND PARADES. S. F. 326. PARADE OF ROSES. Price, $6.00. Approximate Length, 50 feet. One of the most beautiful features of the last Fiesta held in Los Angeles, California. Carriages of every kind and description pass by, literally covered with roses and flowers. No scene ever taken contains more beauty in such a comparatively limited space. This picture never fails to prove one of the hits of the evening. S. F. 324. AUTOMOBILE PARADE. Price, $6.00. Approximate Length, 50 feet. The "horseless carriage" has come to stay, and where thousands were once invested millions of dollars are now annually expended in autos, each manufacturer vying with the other to make the best showing and put out the finest appearing machine. Show parades therefore have become the rage, and certainly the scene represented in our film, which was secured on one of New York's swellest boulevards, is a beautiful and interesting sight and one which cannot often be seen, at least to the same extent. S. F. 328. CHICAGO FAT STOCK PARADE. Price, $6.00. Approximate Length, 50 feet. The Fat Stock Show has become an annual Chicago happening and yearly attracts more people to that city and from a wider range of territory than perhaps any other occurrence. It is the custom on the last day of the show to have the prize winners in the various classes to "parade" for public inspection, and to any of the many thousands who have seen the original of this parade in years past this picture will prove of very special interest. S. F. 329. PARADE OF HORSES. Price, $6.00. Approximate Length, 50 feet. This film was also taken at the Chicago Fat Stock Show and shows the week end parade with the prize winning animals, both cattle and horses in the show ring. S. F. 531. INDIAN PARADE. Price, $6.00. Approximate Length, 50 feet. Indians mounted on their ponies ride toward the camera and go toward their homes on the Crow agency. Chiefs with gorgeous head dress plainly seen. Good, clear picture. S. F. 332. INDIANS AND MOUNTED BAND. Price, $12.00. Approximate Length, 100 feet. A part of the "Buffalo Bill" parade. S. F. 334. RINGLING BROS. CIRCUS PARADE. Price, $18.00. Approximate Length, 150 feet. Through special arrangements with Ringling Brothers, we have obtained the finest circus parade caught by a moving picture camera. The parade is seen coming down a broad avenue with crowds of people on both sides. The parade is headed by Mr. Ringling, followed by the finest band wagon in the world drawn by twelve magnificent horses. Fol 241
