Canada at the Pan Pacific Exposition in San Francisco 1915
Canada plans a large Canadian Palace at the Pan Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco. The building will be among the largest foreign structures, with a 40 foot width and 60 foot height, costing about 1 million dollars after a parliamentary grant. The exhibit will emphasize Canada’s resources, agriculture, minerals, forests, and fisheries, with transportation facilities spotlighted. Colonel William Hutchinson will supervise the Dominion exhibit, and much of Canada’s Ghent expo display is already en route. The piece also includes a poetic adieu to Missouri and local social notes from Monroe City and Hunnewell.
