become an annual event,
The governments of Mexico, Cen

have been invited to participate.
Under present unsettled conditions,
it is certain Mexico could no. make
a ereditable showing and it was for
this reason that the initial fair
was set for 1918. This Will also
give two years in which TO raise
the. necessary funds, collect ex-
