1927 Concert in Portland, Oregon

A song in a concert by the Order of Runeberg in Portland, Oregon in 1927 was Romance, by Merikanto. The concert was part of a longer event which had two meeting headquarters - a Masonic Hall and the Linnea Hall - the Masonic Hall is now restored as part of an art museum, the Linnea Hall is restored and still used as a hall.








In the large picture of the choir is an equestrian statue of Teddy Roosevelt as a Rough Rider. I include a photo of the statue from the internet.
