These pictures are all from one event ca 1918, authoritatively identified as being near the lower pavilion at Spencer Park. Any input as to the nature of the event and actual date, etc, would be greatly appreciated.

I believe the mystery is solved thanks to Jenny Jones. This is a big Fourth of July event in 1918. Here are the links to the newspaper articles reporting the event which drew 10.000 people.
