Oh Montreal!

CHRISTOPHER. HOLLIS

After Samuel Butler

In the British Pavilion at Expo 67 An Irishman called Mr Sean Kenny has made a gyrotron.

It travels on a railway and shows you a lot of people who are supposed to be walking in space.

It stuck when it was two hundred and fifteen feet up and eighty people were trapped.

Oh God! Oh Montreal!

Mr Kenny also made a revolving platform called 'Shaping of a Nation.' On the ground floor was a picture of Stonehenge.

And two hundred feet up the Man and His World, With pictures of Mr and Mrs Wilson.

Oh God! Oh Montreal!

Miss Astrid Zydower in 'Britain Today' Has made forty-five lifesize models of 'Britons Working with Zest.' There is a snap of Carnaby Street and of a happy British family And they flash on the screen the question 'Is Britain stuffy?'

Oh God! Oh Montreal!

Signor Mario Armengol in 'Britain in the World' Has made ten twenty-one-foot faceless figures extending their hands in a gesture of friendship

And there are thirty-three real British girls

speaking French

And Mr Brown says 'Am I my brother's

keeper?'

Oh God! Oh Montreal!
