A VISION OF. WEMBLEY.
HOW THE EMPIRE EXHIBITION GROWS
[BY NIE JOHN FÖRTER FRASER. |
I stool on a high place in the glorious flush of can, English: September evening and saw the British Empire Exhibition in energetic growth,
It is to be the greatest Exhibition the world has ever seen: Millions of money are being expended on its construction and next your it is expected that twenty, million people will pass the turnstiles.
They will see the Exhibition in magni- ficent completion, its Olympian Stadium. its mighty halls with the wonders of British invention and industrialism; Ila galleries revealing the far-flung enterprise of brothers in Britains beyond the seas.
The
he romance of India will be theirs for the mere trouble of strolling to it - All hat the Britkh Empire means to the world will be revenied. Bands will crash und banners flaunt and hourly thousands of people" will wander over many neres fascinated, instructed, entertained.
Beenuse of the things they will see may be they will have no time to think of the task of building, the Exhibition. But just as the building of a mighty ship stimu lates the imagination more than the com pleted vessel, just as I remember the „delving of the Panamon Canal thrilled one much more than when opvan vessels ensily glided from Colon to Panama, so, what- ever I see next April at Wembley, I will always marvel over the building of the Exhihition, A

Yonder fairy like minarets, mere skela | Fri tons as yet, are reared ; but next week ther will gleam gloriously white in the sunshine, Batur 20 m for they will be real minarets rising above
SIL 21 the dome, where the lovliness of India will cali millions to admiration, 1
What is that place to bo? A sunken bandstand, with accommodation for tem thousand listeners on the encircling tieni Over there! That is, where a mammoth amusement pavilion is to be reared, Those buildings Restaurants, A " railwat through the Engineering Hall1 Oh yes, that is to bring is the mighty machinery. but it will be floored over and lifted again when the Exhibition closes so the machin try, may return to Sheffield or the Cir- deside. The reservoir That is to hold. a million gallons of water for emergency Why should there be such strong founda tions on some of the roadways? So that the fire engines if required will have a good running surface. Yes, that concreted basin, spanned by the bridge, „will bo`z great lake on which people will trike excursions. Of course special railway lines are laid to facilitate swift arrivals from London. Over there is parking spare for five thousand motor cars. That's where a bank will be there telegraph nud, tele phona offices, Ak! that is the space allo ated to the British Government and inside the great hall broad things are to be shown
still somewhat of a secret.
Wembley-to-day, is a triumph of organ isation. There is clamour but no con- fusion, Imaginative as well, is shread brains have laid the, plans nothing is for gotten--and with almost uncanny celerity the city grows
There is the strange thing-one can seo is actually growing. Last wook there was] a jumble of broken earth in one quarter. Today it is a graceful and tree guarded swan month ago the engine sanvels were biting into hillocks. Now ball which would hold twenty thousand people is up. the roof is being finished and dignified entrance pillars, reared.
I stand transhed looking upon the azene and recalling that fast year bere were meadows where cows lazily wandered. Next year it will be the centre of the world, for it will be & pacan of the Brit ish Empire and men of all races and all colours and all faiths hq, live, boneath the Union Jack will come to it and ba proud. But I, for one, will often think of the mastory shown this year in turning a vision into a fact.
