Opening Day at Panama-Pacific Exposition Broke All Exposition Attendance Records

ALL attendance records for expositions were broken at the opening of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco on Feb. 20. Vast crowds thronged the grounds when President Wilson pressed the button in Washington, and each day since the attendance has been enormous. The huge buildings and beautiful thoroughfares hummed with activity and have continued to do so. The Exposition has already demonstrated at this early (late that it will be a great success in every way.

From Left to Right Are Shown the Palace of Education, Palace of Liberal Arts and Tower of Jewels.
