ON PARADE
FORTY COLLAPSE IN GREAT HEAT
IMMENSE GATHERING IN ATTENDANCE
Brilliant weather favoured the big naval and mili- tary review at Happy Valley this morning, which form- ed the major event in to-day's Silver Jubilee celebra-. tions. Large crowds gathered to witness what was a most spectacular scene, marred only by the fact that forty of the men participating had to be carried off by ambulance men, having collapsed before the parade began, due to standing in the blazing sun for about an hour.
The review was in charge of Lieut.-Col. R. E. Hind- son, Officer Commanding the 2nd. Battalion Royal Welch Fusiliers, and the salute was taken by H.E. the Governor Sir William Peel, who, accompanied by H.E. Major General O. C. Borrett, G.O.C. China Command, Brigadier General Seth-Smith and Colonel H. C. Harrison, inspected the forces on horseback.
All the Services were represented at the review, which was attended also by French, American, Japanese and Portuguese officers, Boy Scouts, Wolf Cubs, school- children, and a large gathering of the general public. The Royal Navy were represent

London, May 6.
From the smallest islands of the Empire to the largest Dominion, and likewise from foreign centres on all continents, messages have been received by Reuter describing the celebrations in connection with the King's Jubilee.
Thanksgiving services, the thunder of Royal Salutes fired by. hundreds of batteries, brilliant military reviews, illuminations, bonfires, free enter- tainments, were among the numerous forms of festivity on British and foreign soil.
The broadcast of the morning ceremonies in Lon- don was heard perfectly in places as far distant as Sydney and Ottawa. Large numbers of listeners crowded the boulevards and cafes of European capitals, and report that the sound of clattering hoofs, the march of troops and horses, the words of command, all coming clearly over the air, conveyed vivid impres sions of the processions.
