c -y- COLWYN BAY CELEBRATIONS ENTHRONEMENT OF QUEEN EMILY. DELIGHTFUL FUNCTION IN THE PIER PAVILION. FESTIVAL GENERALLY A GREAT SUCCESS, t | (By a "Pioneer" Representative). COLWYN BAY, Wednesday. We naturally associate May Day with hrii- taut sunshine, fieiids of m-ioxald green, a pro- fusion of flowers, in fact, with all that maturo oa.n provide to gladden the heart of man after the gloom of winter. Yet in more than one senso it appeared yes- terday as though the summer of 1907 was to bo ushered in undor conditions of a fair loss auspicious character. In the morning we had an abundiaince of cold rain, varied at timee with hoavy showers of hail, and tihojigh the aar cleared somewhat laAer in the day, it only served to reveal ttnowdemia in tiie dnstanoe uirder a. mantle of ■white, and the surrounding country 111 an un- lovely mood. Soon after sunset i-air. and sleet agi&in folil far a considerable period, and about eag-ht o'ciook two vivid fkusnea of lightn-ung i!lii'.irnina.tod the sky in a seaward direction, the two accompanying peals of thunder being as loud as any heard in the district for a long time. Trie proopects for to day's I/lay Day fer-ti- hero wore, therefore, distinctly unsatis- factory, and hundreds of the younger section of the population, in partaouliar,, wore conse- quently m a very unhappy frame of mind. A arrmil army of thorn had been preparing felt weeks to fittingly play their pa,rrt, as loyal Hubjeota to their obceen sovereign for the voar, Quean Emily, and this could not bo accom- plished with the necessary eclat without tho countenance of a smiling sun. As if iri answer to the unspoken petitions of fihe expectant uverafes, this rnoriri.ng brought it a doLig-htiul change. The sun chone brigfhitiy at an oarly hour, and town and coun- try presented just such an a.ppearanco as phouKt oliajractorise thom on the birthday of tl. now summer. True, the wind was metro or lees f'rorn tho north arid cold, but whil-p tihetro was sunshine little 0100 mattered so far as the cnIt.hlt3wsÙc. busy, tiroliess child was oorcotn- od. In short, we have had a May Day in the true sense of the word. Ganaraiiy speaking, this year's festival has been mucth of the aaine nature as its prc.de- oeasors. There jniave been compobitdons be- tween thceo taking part in the prooessiori the usu-al grand partade—tho route on this occa- sion being extended as fa.r as Old Colwyn—'the quaint withal prertlty specteeiLo of crowning the Queen in the Pier Pavilion, and the cus- tomary ejitarttainmonitri. While there have boon no novetl departures—and the committee would do well to consider what may be done next year to quicken the waning interest in tho oeilobr-a/taons—-the procooc'iin&a fchrougiiowt have boon exceptiLoniaJly suocesaful. There wore a few less entries in the competitions ifcliis yeax, but the fact that Old Colwyn has for the first, time te-ken pari in this oonaieo- tilan is a saurco of much gnatitioa-tion to the promoters. The omm-mumt.y ai that and of the district have liitberto had litfJc sliflce. in tiho festavai, and it is well that the (xwrtaniifc- tvo'3 on to crtoad tlie procession routo has be-on so promptly a.ppretwated.

The prooa^ion was one of the neatest ssen liere fqy. yûa¡rs. whilst tlie oon^ested state of the st.reots bore ample ovidomoe to tho effeet- ivohjcbb of the fos!jval as an attraction. Rht through the afternoon the incoming trwaus from both dirootuona corBtinued to bring large mimbura of strangers. The streets of the town had boon lavishly de-<)Oratoo with bunt- ing and garlands, and the soone generally Iankod nothing in eatihor animation or PÍc- turesqueneas. NftfuTaLly, the feature of the procession wins tlie "Rovfl.1 Ccurrtag'e. Tlie vehicle, wliioh had bectn kindly joint for the oocaeion by MY" J. Fred Fmnois, was IxxiuUfuily de- corated by Messrs Ariuu5«J^ and Sons with flowers, etc. Attached to it were four riohly- oaparioonod bctnsos, with two out-riders and iai cOaohnwui sto.lidly fokling his arms a la llKxto. ;Kx^ueen Ix»uie—Mies Louie rii and her retinjiie were convoyed in a carriage afoo very efi'acstively d<x>orated by her sLatea-, Mi.

The horses from tho Glarlywor-i sta-hies are well-known to all patrons of Notlh Wales horso shows, but it was not to much the aiiimals in the &hait as the of t.ho "exhibit" thtt -Attracted a' toiiiioi) The long lurry had been partitioned off into-sectioos, erch containing either a goat, calves; 6hoop and lambe, pigs, or poultry. In fact, Mrs Pcucbard displayed samples of a] the excellent live stock red at Glanywem, and ho: "show" was undoubtedly a gocd one. Four cpl-i-dIl exhibits were shown in the motor car cLam. "The Germain," which won the first prizo for tho Colwyn Bay Motor Garage Co., being the cyuosu-ra of all eyes. Messrs J. Fred Francis and Sons' exhibit in the trade display was another noteworthy O, whilst the ani- mals shown by Mr L. Elwcod. Conway-road, and Mr Thomas Jon.œ of Harland House, were capital frpeoimena. The wino and spirit mer- chants' competition, was one of the koeneat of ,4e day, and Mr 8. Kyffin Williajtns's tvmart tarn out deservedly won prc-nuer honours. Meesca A. Jankinson and Soil, of Abergele-road, secured first; and aeoo-nd place in tiie green- RwOOOrW olass with two admirable exhibits. Ttkore were fewer novel foaturea in the cotnio eveiits than usual, and the entries in the cyclists' class were less numerous.

CEREMONY IN THE PA VILION- Meanwhile the Pier Pavilion was speedily Glling with her woo Majesty's lieig<es, and in spito of a lengthy term of waiting, tlie largo andiaooe exercifed canrumaridable patience. Bis stage had been prott'ilv. if not goryeous ly, mounted, the throne on this occasion occu- pying a centre rather than a aide position. Thi a.fmbcta of Riviere's Grand Orchesbca, under the leadership of Mr T. Henry Smith, wsre provided with acocwnmodaUon on the ground floor immediately hi front of tho plat- form, and, when at length a rousing cneer haj'e 1 ihe arrival of ex Qinen T/ouie and her train, the orchestra struck up "The Ð/:¡tI'y of th> Gl.tjdiator." Tliough the winsome iitile maiden boie anything Kit the air of a warrior or an Amazon eiie captivated mtti iiearts witdi hor childish grace Sne was beautifully attired in wh'te satin, and Tifl hpr-I.f with. if any- thing, majesty than last year, She was attended by Miss Mvibel Cooper, as train- bearer, and as both of them ascended the stage they wero sooordod a right loyal welcome. The ex-Queen, of course, seated herself on the throne at the outset, x.nd alio had no sooner been satisfied that her long train had been effectively arranged than Queen Emily and her oottrt entered amidst renewed applause. Qa&en Eoilj, jirho is fifteen years of age, is tho second daughter of Councillor Hugh t Hughes. Her first school days were spent at the Colwyn Bay Elementary School, under Miss Owen. Subsequently, she came under the care of- Miss Crindley at tho Conway-road Board School, removing thence to the Higher Grade ScJiooJ some three years ago. Dark-haired and round faced, she is typical of the best favoured Wblsh children. Her Majesty was attired in a dross of ivory Orie.nta! satin made in the empire style, with a long tram, in which the crepe do chine trimrning was prettily egt off v, I' th pink chiffon taffeta and May flowers. The dress was made by Mcssra D. Williams and Co., Central Buildings. She carried some beau- tiful flowers presented b- v Messrs Arundale and Messrs Stange and Co. Queen Emily was attended by her brother, Master John Alfred Hughes, and Master I)onald S. Clegg. both of whom were dressed in white satin, and carried out their duties very well. The maids of honour, who wero all becom.m- ly attired, were Misses Lillie Evans, Oliff Davie, Dorrie Post. Mary E. Williams, Rhoda Douglas, Emily Ilanmer. Mary Jones, Jennie Jones, Amy Brewster, Dorris ILndley, Nor ah Morris, and Alice Jocieo. Misses Madge Couitor and Cartwrigbt aoted as efficient pi anifi+" whiUt the stage manage- mert of Mesere H.

A youtJiful Master of Ceremonies, garbed in a mayoral ocstume, then solemnly infamated to all concerned that a.t this juncture ex-Queen T/ouij would crown Her Majesty Queen Enuly, "the ohosen of the people."

Ex-Queen Louie decorously handed over the sceptre, and amidst a. hearty cheer re- tired to another royal chair fixed on the left side of the stage. The soen-e was a sin.^ular.y pretty csie, and reflected much credit on thcte who had trained tho children and upon the par- t cipanta themselves. "By the gracious conamand of Queen EmilN we will now have a May-Poie dance," announced the Master of Ceremonies. This was performed very skilfully by the following Higher Grade scholars, under the direction of M. Snoddy. B.A. :-G Irts: Dorothy D&vics, Mabel Griffiths, Gertrude Young. Sallie Thompson, Mary E. Lee, Dorothy Jones, May Owen, and Gwennie Evans. Boys: W. Hibhics, RobcH Conciiar, Tudor Hugh* Art-hie Huiaafi, Evan D. Hug hes, j Maurice T. Parry, J. Howard Evans, and Art.hur 0. Roberts. At this point Mrs Bernaid Lucas ascended tho platform to make some presentations to Her Majesty. These included a. handsome watch, with chain a.nd pendant, presented by the pre- sident of the festivities and Sim Lucas, and gifts from Mr Buckley, Mrs Clarke (Cafe Royal), Mian Patrick, Mr J. D. Cartmell, Mr TNreedham, all Colwyn Bay confectioners; Mr W. H. Jones, IJandudno; arid Mr Llewelyn Jones, chemKst, Colwyn Bay. Ex-Queen Looiie was also tho recipient of presents from "An acknrner" and Mrs Barlow, whilst another "Admiror" aleo sont MisB Emily Cooper, the train hearer, aj-gift. Following this litile incident came ectane loyal bardic addressee in Welsh and English frosn the Mfcssa Eleie Marsan, Louisa. Evans (Conway), and Master T. Q. Griffiths. A delightful flower darcv was then executed by Her Majesty's maids, who were as follow: — Mi-,&,Ui Mary A. Jones, Lily Evans, Norah Morris, Doris Hindley, Mary R. V/illian», Oliff Dayte, Alice Jones, Jennie .Jün<6, Eatiiy Ham-, mer, Rhoda Douglas, Amy Brevier, and Dorrie Poet. This item was aieo under the direction of Miss Snoddy.

She was loudly recalled, and re- spontlod with "The Milkmaid Danoe." A very pleasing interpretation of "Fair Flora. Dec-lw" by the school choir, and of the National Anthem by the assembly, brought a very succeta- hi afl»rnoon's prograiitme to a close. THE EVENING ENTERTAINMENT. There was an unparalleled gathering in attend- ance at the Pier Pavilion for the evening enter- tainment, over which Queen Emiiy graciously presideti. Tha,progra-ra-me, was ae lengthy M it waft varied and entertaining. The first item was a performance of the ¡ "Qrenadiexa" wait* by the Pier Orchestra, led by Mr T. Henry Smith. Tho remainder portion of this haJf of the prograijime was devoted to the presentation of Somervilie's musical playlet, "The Knclnanted Palace," by the following young artistes, as principalsKing, John Edis Williams; Queen, Doris Hind lev; Fairies of the Palace, ISlsie Mar- san and Norah Morris; Fairy of Life.

The chorus was made up of the Higher Grade scholars, and the whole were under the direction of Mr Glymie Jones, B.A. Mil,MadgeÜoult.er presided at the pianoforte, and what, with the ossaetance of Riviere's Orchestra, nothing waa wanting in the way of accompaniment. In- dividually and collectively the young jxjrformera were highly successful. Special mention should be made of Masters Llewelyn Binder, T. 0. Griffiths, Tudor Hughes, and Donald Clegg, who, in their respective parts of "Chancellor," "Wise Mm," "Jeswr," und "Poet,' were k [in —g—comiiiii i h* u —wen r good, esiiccially blaster Hughes, whose youthful drollery kept the house in the happiest of mocdB. Generally speaking, this was the best of all the many excellent numbers presented from time to time in connection with ioeal May-Day festivities, under the auspices of the Higher Grade. School, and Mr G-lynno Jones is to be heartily congratulated upon so successful a con- summation of his patiant and conscientious labour. THE CHAMPION CUP WINNER. Daring th-e interval Mrs P/ernard Lucas dis- tributed the prizes to tho successful competitors in the afternoon's contest. It was now announced that the cup offered for the best exhibit during the day had been won by Mrs Pritchard, Glanywern, Mochdre. Of the items in the remaining haJf of the pro- gramme the character selections rendered by Miss Maldwyn Price's Welsh Ladies' Choir were obviously the most popular. The other nnntbeis were the "Uncle Semmie Cakewalk" by Riviere's Orchestra; two soloa by Miss Ida Kahn; a couple of dances by Miss Daisy Cartwright; and a comic song by Mr Harry Chrimes. On the motion of Mr Ed. Alien a hearty vote of thanks was accorded Mr and Mm Bernard Lucas for presiding over the festivities, and for the-it generous gifts during the dcy. Mrs Lucas acknowledged in the course of a neat little speech.

LLANDUDNO'S BRILLIANT CARNIVAL. PICTURESQUE SCENES AND CEREMONIES. A POPULAR QUEEN, INTERESTING PAGEANT AND COMPETITIONS. FULL LIST OF AWARDS. (By a "Pioneer" Representative), After an unbroken record of sixteen yecrs he May-Day carnival of the Queen of Welsh water- ing places still maintains premier position amongst similar pageants on the Welsh coast. It was in 1892 that this popular carnival was inaugurated at Llandudno, and go great was iLa succoas that it has boon repeated eve--Y year since with the greatest euccees. For this year's festival many new features were introduced, a.nd it L pleasing to note that the many change effected have add much to the popularity and pictureeqaenceo of the carnival. For eMM! years past the procession has been the cause of considerable anxiety to the pro- moters. It has been the least satisfactory at the many attractions, and at one time a proposal waa made to abandon it. This year, however, a strong Procession Committee, with Mr T. J. Jones ao th-oir leader, put forth their energies to improve thu feature of the day's events, with the result that the entrie3 liave increased by 40 per cent, and many new and interesting novelties were introduced. The inclusion of the May Queen and her retinue in the procession has conduced greatly to ita attractiveness. The method adopted in eeiecting the May Quosn created a wider and deeper interens this year than en former occasions. Miss Doris Ward, the charming twelve year old daughter of Mr and Mrs Ward, Rose Lei (assistant surveyor to the Lboidudno Urban District Council), had the proud dis- tinction of not only being Queen of the May of 1907, but the elect of the school children, whidh proves her popularity, and claims to the honour best-owed upon her. Great improvements were also effected by tho Pavilion Committee, of which Mr Alex. Taylor was the painstaking chairman. At this year's ceremony OUT Colonies were represented for the first time. The daiices, which were arranged and taught by the Misses Btreather-Booth, of West Kirby, were also of a novel character. Another creditable aciion on the part, of the committee was to purchase an the flowers, etc., for the elaborate decorationo from local trades- men. In addition to those purchased by the committee, flowers were also presented by Lady Augusta Mostyn, the Hon. MJiJ Henry Mostyn, Miss Barker (Plas Gogarth), The Birmingham Convalescent Home, and othb-e- To the M&ids of Honour the committee presented beautiful baskets of flowers. For many yeans paet each of the one hundred children taking part in the festivities were pre- sented with a new shilling by the laio Mr Joseph Broome. Much to tiho gratification of the yoangstenj the custom was again continued through the generosity of Mr John Walker, Osborne House. The children were also pre- sented with a. souvenir phonograph of tho May Queen. I Photo by W. Symmonda, Llandudno. LLANDUDNO'S MAY QUEEN I Doris Ward, aged 12 years). Two new features were this year introduced to the sports programme, viz., a trotting handi- cap (two miles), for which there were ten entries, asd a two mite flat race, which attracted six. entries, including the fawiious "Nance o'r Glyn," from tho Dinarth Hall Stud, and Mr W. M. Sever's "May Flower," which took first honoum at tbo recent Conway Horsff Show. The chair- Jn3.U of the Ooinxmttee, Mr J. Haworth, and hÍli colioagiies are to be congratulated upon (Ata progrrammo arranged. The inhabitants of the town were early astir on May morntpg, decaratiiag fheir premises with a. proiueion of bunting, etc., and as usual tho wtoboitoo Promenade was adorned with lont streamers of gay bunting and banners. Moat of the tradespeople ceased business at noon, and signs of rejoicing were evident on all hands. Sighteoens Soaked into the town by road and rau, and by on& o'clook, the hour the prooeesion was anudanood to start, the streets were thronged with people. As a. finishing touch to the I Eocne the n shone brilliantly from a clear blue sky. Never was a. May Queen crowned under more favourable circumstances than the sweet maiden who rac, crowned at Llandudno on Wednesday. Tho energetic eeeretrtry, Mr 11. W. Squirrel, is worthy of the highest praise for has untiring efforts on behalf of tho festival, and Mr Thomas Smith, as chairman cf the General C'z.JI1.miUec, has every reason to con- gratulate himeelf upon the record success all- tained- PAST MAY QUEENS.
