Between 30,000 and 50,000 is the wide range of estimates upon which the Elks have to work in preparing for the day. Last year more than 40,000 children took part in the celebration, filling the large grandstand in the oval at Hastings Park and overflowing on to the racetrack and grounds. This year the number is ex- pected to be even greater, for many of the children who had such a large measure of enjoy- ment at the festivity last year are expected to be there again this year with their playmates. How much poorer life will be when at last ankles are so com- monplace as to be unnoticed. SA L~ION just out of the water 15c lb. half or whole Theatre Tickets given with every 50c purchase. B. C. E.
