Macleanj EASTERN ECHO A DAY AT TI-IE C.N.E. tPri:t' .ltaardl ALEX, GILLIES, SSI Each year as Exhibition time draws near. I mentally resolve not to attend: the Exhi- bition authorities have other intentions. Clev- erly they arrange that Childrens Day CI g- then-everythings a nickelfj falls just be- fore the start of school. The knowledge of this approaching catastrophe brews a sort of desperate recklessness in you, Why not, you reason defiantly. have one final fling before my freedom is taken from me. A condemned man feels the same way about his last meal. By subtle propaganda, the Ex- hibition is suggested as the ideal place to fling yourself. From then on the thing is out of your hands, A street-car whisks t?l you down to the gates, and, trying to look as public-school as possible, you hand the attendant your young brothers free ticket. Once inside, youre done for. A thousand attractions are set up for one purpose-to get your money. A surging crowd of eager victims bears you to the Pure Food building. There you don't have to walk. I have found that by standing still, limbs relaxed and on someone elses feet, I can be carried past every stall and booth in the building, only rising for air every two or three minutes. As you are borne slowly past, you have time to purchase the bags and articles that are shoved in your face. These consist of Sweet Marie bags. Chipso bags. Liptons Tea bags. Uvaltine bags, Kelli-gs Wheatie bags and others. You buy balloons, monkeys, dolls, walking Canes, noise-makers and other useless articles. which your mother will dispose of next day. Seventy-five
