Caption: "Devil's Kitchen," c. 1923. This photograph shows several people descending into and standing around the entry to Devil's Kitchen, an extinct hot spring that left behind a cavern.

Originally planned to only run from May to November in 1933, it was such a success that its organizers decided to keep it running for a second season from May through October the following year. The central theme of the Exposition was technological innovation, with a motto of "Science Finds, Industry Applies, Man Conforms."
