THE LEADED TRIBUNE. FORT VA LLEY, GA., THURSDAY. APRIL 2. 1925.
PEACH BLOSSOM FESTIVAL
BEAUTIFUL SPECTACLE 1
(Wiregr*** Farmer)
Fort Valley’s fourth annual Peach
BloHHom Festival in again history.)
Significant history that will never be
forgotten. *
Thousands journeyed from all sec-1
tions of Georgia to Fort Valley last ‘
Thursday and Friday to witness “The
Trail of l’ink Petals,” the artistic
pageant presented in connection with
this year’s festival. The thousands at¬
tending left thrilled with the beau¬
ty, grace and magnitude of this spec¬
tacular event. It was a master piece
from beginning to end. One could
see it several times and see some
thing new each time to marvel at.
To us tne scenes enaeieu were in
descrihaOle. Columns nave ueen wriu
c W U u li in au tne daily papers.
We will not attempt it in (leian lor no
pen can do it justice. It must be seen
to be appreciated.
What impressed us most was the
concerted co-operation of every cn
izen oj Fort V utley in this gigantic
undertaking. “The everlasting team :
work of every bloomin' soul” was,
never more wonderfully exemplified,
It as a concrete illustration of what
co-operation can do, not a slacker in
the town to be found. We wish every •
town in Georgia could catch this same
enthusiasm, vision and faith and be I
booster worthwhile thing 1
a for every
started. If this happy condition coula
he realized, Georgia would soon be
in the lime light as much as Florida.
Another thought that impressed us
was that this annual festival should
lUKciousness, and which advertises
this State from one end of the land
to the other.
One has to see “The Trail of Pink
Petals” to gather any real conception
of the beauty and stupendousness of
the production. To assemble and
train one thousand boys and girls
and men and women to fill their re¬
spective places, to say nothing of pro¬
viding costumes—in many instances
beautiful in the extreme—is a her 'U
lean task, but this was done, and in a
way to reflect credit upon the his
tronic ability of those taking part,
as well as those who did the train¬
ing. What patience and perseverance
must have been exercised in rounding
out the work! t
More than ten thousand people
gathered in the great stadium Friday
to see the show—and show it was.
The crowning of the King and Queen
and the parade occurred in the fore¬
noon, after which the barbecue was
served in an orderly manner to the
thousands outside the stadium. To
serve such a ’cue in such a perfect
manner was of itself no small accom¬
plishment, and team work was evi¬
denced here.
'to handle ten thousand people in
such an orderly manner is a joo, but
the organization was so periect that
there was not an unpleasant incident,
so far as we heard. The pageant,
taking more than two hours in its
presentation, was watched with in¬
tense interest. The Fort Oglethorpe
and Central of Georgia shop bands
kept the audience well-entertained
with splendid music until the pageant
got under way. As the pageant pro¬
ceeded, Colonel Shepard broadcasted
through a microphone near the great
‘outdoor stage the lines of the play,
which was heard in every part of the
vast stadium, and the audience
watched with keen interest the ad
ventures of the “Peach” as she was
transplanted from one country to the l
other until she finally returned to
her own and became the bride of
Fort Valley.
According to the story Ine peach
originated in China, hundreds of
years before the Christian from 1
era,
thence was introduced into India and
Persia by means of trade :
caravans
which early plied between these 1
countries, and reached Greece when 1
Alexander invaded Persia in 331 li. I
C. From Greece it was but a step in¬
to Rome and Gaul. In France the
peach was carefully tended in the
monasteries and with the spread of
Christianity, the art of peach culti¬
vation spread over Europe. Spain i
carried it into Mexico after the
Spanish conquest. The Aztec Indians
cultivated peaches at an early period.
. roDably through them, as well as
through the Spanish conquerors, the
peach wandered mto Florida and ’
thence into the other states.
It was n beautiful production, and
in producing it Fort Valley has giv-j
en to herself and to Georgia an ad- j
vertisement, the benefits of which :
are incalculable to the State. It is
estimated that it cost $35,000.00 to :
produce this spectacle, which is the
fourth annual event of its kind given I
by enterprising \
to the country this
people. “Team work” and whole- •
hearted co-operation made it possible,
and other communities might well
pattern after this enterprising com¬
munity in the production of its pub¬
lic affairs.

to eat, of'things, a good seat right in the cen
ter and close to the band,
The pageant was a brilliant spec
taele, but, best of all, was a choice
selection of music played by the mili
tary band of Fort Benning. There
was a very agrt ■cable absence of that
_
miserable caricature of music called
jazz, nor was there a groat display
„f the highly technical productions
masquerading as classical music,
Jazz is nothing but a messy con¬
coction of sounds little better than
that produced on the African toin
toms of other days. It is also true
that there is but little harmony and
no melody in the compositions that
take a generation to understand and
appreciate, but the kind furnished at
Fort Valiev was of the genuinely real
article.
Wc did not begin this article to
comment so freely upon the music,
but to commend Fort Valley and
