By An Observer The Canadian National Exhibition termed “The Show Window of the World” is past and regarded as his:- tory now, and to say that it is the show window of the world does not over estimate it for every import- ant country of the world is strongly represented while the colonies of the British Empire and especially our own Dominion which sponsors the fair is something to be proud of and has many educational advantages of real value, not alone for the youth of the country but for those of ma- ture years. The fair this year was greater and better than ever. There were exhibits in manufactured prodâ€" ucts never seen before and one can- not help wondering if there is any limit to what can be done by ma- chinery through the skill of invent- ive genius. As proof of that state- ment if you lingered at the binder twine making machine exhibited and operated by the International har- vesting Company you could not help marvelling at the precision with which the machine did its work. If you visited the section occupied by the tropical fish department or the Ontario Building and went through the reproduction of an International Nickel Mine you might be tempted to say to yourself “Is There Any- thing else that human skill can ac- complish.” To sum it all up in a few words the Canadian National Exhibition has helped more than anything else to focus the eyes of the world on the land termed by the late Rudyard Kipling in a poem en- titled “The Lady of The Snows.” he wrongs another. man injures himself every time Canadians: think that their rail- ways do very well in handling a vast amount of traffic during the fort, night of the Canadian National Ex- hibition. American railways fre- quently boast of their ability in that direction on special occasions. But, acording to Mr. Thomas F. Wood- lock, a well-known New York writer on financial subjects, none of them is in it with the railways of Great Britain. In a letter from London to the Wall Street Journal, Mr. Wood- lock says: “The August bank holi- day witnesses an extraordinary feat of transportation by British rail- ways, buses and' boats. Careful estiâ€" mates disclose the amazing fact that beginning at 8 am. on July 31 and ending 40 hours later on August 1 at midnight this year, one-quarter of the entire p0pu1ation of this coun- try was on the move to Summer re- sorts by the sea and inland. No country in the world approaches Great Britain in “tripping,” and the Summer bank holiday marks the peak of movement.
