N.Z. FARMERS’ CO-OP., 107 to 115 CASHEL STREET. FATHER CHRISTMAS ALL READY NOW, CHILDEENWill preside at our Toy Store on Wednesday, 20th December, and each succeeding day for , the rest of the week. -Come along in Companies, Battalions, and Regiments, swarm into the Toy Store, and enjoy yourselves. SEE THE GIGANTIC DOLLY HOUSE —With all the dolls that grow in dollyland—Dolls at their best and dolls at rest, sleeping dolls and laughing dolls, comic dolls and pretty dolls, dolls at afternoon tea, dolls that talk and walk. It is the greatest doll you are likely to see in Canterbury this year. SEE THE MODEL RAILWAY. —It is a clever piece of mechanism. A model train complete in every respect runs a journey, travels over bridges, through tunnels, past signal stations, over snow-capped mountain peaks, through valleys, and past lakes, until it finally pulls up at the terminus. And then you must not fail to SEE THE MODEL LAKE WITH THE FLOTILLA OF VESSELS. This is a very clever novelty, and is one of the magnificent toys we owe to the Russo-Japanese War and the brilliant achievements of Admiral Togo. On this model lake there are battleships and cruisers, torpedo boats and submarines, mail steamers and sailing craft, and all the vessels move about and look quite real. The submarines, travel under water just like the real ones, and there are divers at work under water. It is a wonderfully fascinating exhibition, and one of tho jolliest things in toyland.
