HOLIDAYS FOR 1$M Canada To Be Colorful For The Roya» Visit The task of decorating Canada for the visit of the King and Queen next "spring will be entrusted to J. B. Hunter, Deputy Minister of Public Works it was learned at Ottawa. Cities on the Royal route wUl break out in profusion of flags and bunting in honor of the Royal visit. Mr. Hunter and Public Works architects across the Dominion will co-operate with civic and provincial governments to give Canada a festive appearance. Decorating of the- capital and es- pecially the Parliament buildings will be one of Mr. Hunter's chief concerns. Miles of bunting, huge pylons, and hundreds of flags will dress up Ott- awa for a fitting welcome to Their Majesties. The decorators will make every attempt to ensure Ottawa is not outdone in decorative art by Wash- ington, for it is known the United States capital plans an ambitious dec- orative scheme when the Royal party visits there.
