The Diary: Pan American Expo

The Diary: P A G E . 22. First glimpse of te " Pan ". Cont'd on page.24. After supper we decided to take a look at the Expositon by night and wandering down the avenue and glancing to our right we had our First glimpse of the Pan American Exposition. It was certainly a most magnificent sight. Words would not do it justice. We imagined we must be going into Fairyland.High above the trees and other buildings rose the magnificently illuminated ELECTRIC TOWER Through the branches and foliage of the trees in Delaware Park, could be seen the curved domes and the roofs and bodies of the buildings outlined in electric fire.One glimpse of the Pan American illuminated would be stamped on your memory forever. In a few moments we found ourselves within the grounds and passing up the Midway towards the T o w e r. We reached the long restuarant at the other end of the Midway and passing through the tall arches we gazed in admiration and genuine surprise at the beautiful picture before us. Directly in front stood the Electric Tower and byond, down a beautiful court stood the other large buildings all bathed in the soft yellow radiance of the thousand of electric bulbs.
