deck will also be utilized, the :latter
for the heavier jokes from lainch.
There will be more than two hun-
dred trade representatives on hoard
the Megantic, and each exhibitor /S.
to have a fixed amount of space.
The generous proportions of the ves-•
sel make it possible for all the goads
to be set off to the best possible ad-
vantage. At each pert of cell some
" prominent citizen will be invited to
formally "open" the exhibition,
which may be sure, will have its So.
