Plans are being made by a comm-ittee at Toronto for a gi- gantic celebration provincial in scope to be held on August 6th of that year M'r. J. E. Middleton, who wrote the 'Romance of Ontario," will be com- missioned to write a souvenir booV- let and the Federal government will in all probability be asked for a spe- cial coin and stamp issue.
