6797. Military Parade - Winnipeg, Feb. 14th 17.

This is a later parade - Feb. 14, 1917. The 1917 poultry show, held at the Industrial Bureau in the background, was a roaring success -- according to the Winnipeg Tribune. Eggs laid during the show were to be donated to the returned soldiers at Deer Lodge, with several dozen having been so collected as of the date of the article (Feb. 15). No. 6 in a series by Charles A. Meyers.
