CANADA COMING TO
SOUTH FLORIDA FAIR
Great Exhibit from the Dominion At
Tampa in February
(Robeh w. Bentley

Tampa, Dec. 28.-When visitors to
the South Florida Fair line up in
front of the Canadian exhibit the COM
ing February they will realize the in
ternational Importance of Florida's
greatest fair, because they will find,
representing Canada, a most "beauti-
full, attractive and interesting exhibit
better than any that has ever been
placed anywhere"
The above quotation is from a let
ter received by General Manager p.
T. Shredder of the South Florida FAIR
from w. ]. White, inspector of Unit
ed States agencies for the Canadian
government. Mr.. White and his son,
E. H. White, had charge of the Canad-
ian exhibit at the fair here last Feb
ruary, and will Re in charge of the
exhibit again the coming February.
Canada will have several times as
much exhibit space at the coming
fair than it had at the 1921 exhibition.
A considerable part of the exhibit has
arrived already, and Mr.. White writes
that a force of men will be here early
next month to begin preparing the
booths Off the display of Canada's
products
Writing of Canada's display here,
Mr.. White says:
1t will comprise products of field,
mine, forest, with animal and bird
life typically displayed in such a
manner as to give to the visitor, in a
unique way, some knowledge of what
lies in the hinterland of the northland
country, bringing back to many of
them, doubtless, the days, when in
their younger years they trod the
fields, breasted the northern rivers In
their canoe, blazed their way through
almost impossible woods, placing
their traps, or sighting their guns on
the elusive elk, or the cunning bear,
or to those, like Ike Walton, who pre-
ferred casting the fly to bait the wary
trout or muskallonge.
Anyway, it is going to be an ex-
hibition-a show that viii interest the
visitor and well repay him for hun
dred or two hundred miles of travel
to see it alone, irrespective of the hun
dreds Of other attractions that the
fair board is putting on for the thou
sands. of visitors who viii doubtless
be attracted through the fame of your
efforts to have something to please"
