RUSSIA'S WONDER BUILDING
One of the tallest buildings in the world is the fantastic Palace of the SoA'iets in Moscow. On top of the huge mass of steel, concrete and marble towers is the biggest sculptured figure ever made by man, a statue of Lenin so colossal that it can be seen for 15 miles around. One 1 of the two huge auditoriums inside is a theatre seating 6000, the other is a colossal Grand Hall topped by a dome coA'ering two acres! The vanishing trick really works here, for all the seats can be made to disappear into a pit below, whiile eight platforms can be made to appear in front of you before, you can say Jack Robinson.
