covered women"
The nations Of Europe will at last
see with their own eyes The ought
and grandeur of our land. Great
Britain our Mother Country will have
to acknowledge that she but holds
second rank among tho Anglo Saxon
race. +.
Perhaps one OF the most imposing
and impressive sights was the Naval
review, there We're the finest war
vessels Of the mighty nations gath
cred together, not for war or carnage
but on mission Of peace aud good
will.
AT the parade in the city of New
York, Frenchmen walked behind
Germans, PrIssians behind Euxiish-
men. ~
What a lesson it will teach to
nations of the world 20 see these arch
foes, walking almost side by side on
the streets Of New York under
command of an American Admiral.
IL showed that if ever universal
peace Ii obtained, and il ever wars
cease, it will be through the benign
influence OF Colunb ia.
People could not believe that the
Fair buildings would be completed in
time to open the first Of May. What
could they know Of the push, energy
and vim Of the Americans. Chicago
outdid herself. Buildings arose as it
by magic.

din add his wonderful lump mad
Reached Chicago, and built new

even the American people gaze
with admiration at the results ac-
complished by her citizens ia one
short year.

We shall seq how other people live,

some things We shall find them supe-

We far excel them. Mutual improve

The advantages that will be derived
by America from this Fair are wlde-
reaching aud hard to predict.

proach this great celebration as they
