World's Largest Annual Exposition Will Celebrate 60 Years An Agricultural Fair, the C.N.E. Continues to Progress, To Increase in Scope â€" 1938 Show Empha- sizes Growing Importance of Dominion of Canada In Fields of Industry, Commerce â€" Exhibits From Euro- pean Countries Have Prominent Place â€" More Enter- tainment Features Than Ever Before. The Horse Show Canada's premier horse show at the Canadian National Exhibition is held this year from Friday, Scptrmber 2Rd, to Saturday, Septcrber 10th. This outstanding event which attracts the aristo- crats of the equine world will be of a iharacter entirely in keeping with the Diamond Jubilee celebra- tion. Canada's premier horse show is htld in the arena of the Colis- eum â€" the largest e>iiibition build- ing in the world. This year the Canadian National Exhibition is celebrating its Diamond Jubilee. For sixty years this great organization has functioned without interruption and has in that time increased in scope, magnitude and prestige. In 1879 it was little more than a country fair with its influence barely e.xtending to the boundaries of the Province of Ontario. Today it is acknowledged to be the world's largest annual exposition with a world-wide influence and which draws visitors from the four corners of the globe. Following the announcement of additional restrictions on consump- tion of goods and the extension of price control, business in Japan is steadily decreasing.

Basic Industry, Agriculture The Canadian National Exhibi- tion was originally an agricultural Fair. Its Influence has yastly grown and extended since those days but nevertheless the place of agriculture in the activities of the Canadian National Exhibition is still of major importance. This year throughout every field of the basic industry greater activity Is evinced than ever before and the thousands of entries in all sections are expected to eclipse all previous years. British Government Interested The growing importance of the Dominion of Canada in the indus- trial and commercial world la this year emphasized in greater degree than ever. In the International Building will be found the displays of six European countries, the larg- est representation the Exhibition has ever had. In the Governments Building the overseas dominions of the British Empire are again all represented, as is the eastern group of the British West Indies. The importance attached by the British government to the Canadi- an National Exhibition is exempli- fied this year in the fact that it has, through the Department of Overseas Trade, taken over a com- plete building knows as the United Kingdom Pavilion to house a huge BASEBALL Maple Leaf Stadium • TORONTO • EXHIBITION VISITORS will have a chance to see the Maple Leafs in the following Internation- al League games: AUGUST 26 â€" 27 â€" MONTREAL AUGUST 29 â€" 30 â€" BUFFALO SEPTEMBER 3 â€" double-header â€" MONTREAL SEPTEMBER 5 â€" 6 â€" BUFFALO â€" (two games Labor Day) SEPTEMBER 7-8-9-10 â€" ROCHESTER , NIGHT GAMES EVERY DAY EXCEPT LABOR DAY Topnotch Links Star HORIZONTAL. 1,7 Sportswoman pictured here. 11 The earth. 12 Consumes. 13 Misery. 14 3.1416. 15 Fa\"orite British beverage. 16 Grazed. 17 Logger's boot. 18 Circle part. 20 Idant. 21 To go hungry. 23«enior. 24 Dispatched. 26 To pack away. 29 Her is golf. 31 Vagrant. 33 Music drama. 35 Tissue. 36 Candle. 38 Short article. 39 Noisy. 41 Powder ingredient. «3 Mug.

For Lovers of Art, Music The Art Gallery, always a focal point for lovers of beauty, is more interesting than ever. The famous .\rt galleries of Great Britain have contributed many beautiful and fa- mous paintings to this year's show, not only from the brushes of con- temporary British painters but also many old masterpieces. Sculpture is represented by the works of Ep- stein and Frank Dobson. Lovers of music have many a rare treat in store this year for the musical presentations are indeed numerous. Heading the list is the band of the Royal Artillery from England, over seventy strong. This band is unique among the world's military bands, in so far as it Is also a symphony orchestra of great merit, as every musician can play at least two instruments. Then there is the Welsh Imperial Sing- ers who will be heard in concert at the Coliseum and on one gala night being accompanied by the band of the Royal Artillery. The Mendels- sohn Choir, Canada's premier choral organization will be heard in concert from the Band Shell and the Music Day attractions will be actually more numerous than ever before.
