Isep The Business Man On His Western Trip War Spectacle at Exhibition The mammoth wa' fpectacle, "The Slarchof the Allies" and the "R«vi.-« of I bo Fleet," will be Ihe b g scenic produc- iiion in front of the Cirand Stand at the Canadian Natiui.al Kxhibition this year, and will bo <>ne of the most eUbora'e ever staged an I 1 titling cli'iii x to cich Oay's ontortainmcnt in this "Patriotic Vear." The background is the ancient city of Calais, saved by the Canadians when they Ko gallantly stopped the (Jermaii <lrive at St. .Julien at such enormous cost. Its pictures<pin chatteaus and his- toric envuiiment adapt themselves admir- ably to reproduction. On either side beneath frowning clitfs are seen military cumps with ihe soldiers of the allied armies in all the hustle, buitlo and action of war time. The brilliant uniforms of the Field Marshalls, Oenerali, etc,, add splendor to an inipre-is ve scene. .Suddenly the fleet appears over the horixon under lull steam with the (^ueen Bess hading the first bkttle lino and the Lion in advance of the others. The Iron Duke majestically appears with Admiral Jellico aboard, and, as the passes be- tween the watch dog* of the Empire lined up in battle array, thel'Xtrmiral is greeted with salvoes of broa'Isides. it will bo a faithful portrayal of the nceno just before war was declared list aummer when the fleet had been mobil- ised un the orders of Churchill ofl" the British coast. The connoiiading continues as the otticers go ashore to review the troops, which swing past the Grand Stand in Ihe itinal wonderful tableau. It «ill be a ipanorama of Empire greatness, a picture «f Mich kti iking reality as to cvoko a •veiitAMo hysteria of patriotic fervor among the lliousandi who will niKhlly «rowd the Ornnd Stand.
