Missoula Fourth of July Celebrations End With Bells and Fireworks
Missoula held a large Fourth of July celebration with a long parade through Higgins avenue, a ship of state float named Montana, and a big crowd from Western Montana. Speeches by Senator Joseph M. Dixon and T. J. Walsh followed a mass parade featuring Eagles, Elks, Modern Woodmen, and a gold queen float. Evening events included a motorcycle parade, fireworks over the river, and prize-awarding sports for youths, with Charles Avery’s committee praised for planning.
