EXPOSITION

By Editor

(MARCH) NUMBER

Panama-California Exposition — Panama-Pacific Exposition

SEE the expositions. If you cannot attend in person, don't fail to see the pictures and description of them in the Signs Magazine for March. 36 fair pictures, one a double-page panoramic view of the Panama-Pacific Exposition grounds, showing the Golden Gate and charming Marin hills in the background. Nor does it lack its usual message, as the following paragraphs show:

Since prehistoric times, populations have moved steadily westward, until there is no further west; beyond is the Orient. A forbidding, untraveled ocean, savage tribes, a wilderness, ferocious beasts, all combined, did not stay the onward march of mankind. These thoughts and others are embodied and developed in “Westward the Course of Empire.”

One of the most striking pieces of architecture at the Panama-Pacific Exposition is the Arch of the Rising Sun, typifying the nations of the East, upon which are quotations from sages, philosophers, and wise men of the Orient. Millions probably will gaze in wonderment and admiration upon this magnificent creation, which symbolizes so much. It supplies a text for the surpassingly good article “Sun Worship and the Sabbath.”

It is said that art, science, and invention, all of which will be seen in great magnitude at San Francisco, made far more progress in the last hundred years than in the previous six thousand years of earth's history. This feature of the exposition forms the basis of an article that appears under the head “An Exposition for Our Times.” You never read a better presentation of the subject.

The expositions furnish ideas for other articles equally as good as those mentioned, notably “The Circle Almost Circled.”

And consider these: “Russia and the Open Sea”; “Then Shall the End Come”; “The Grand Finale of Armageddon.”

The yawning wastebasket will wait in vain for this March number. Your friends to whom you mail or hand it, or your customers to whom you sell it, will wish to preserve their Exposition copy for future reference.
