Original Toronto Star caption: Flag-Framed crown rides skyward as Ottawa decorates. Three days from today their majestics arrive in Canada; two days later the royal train will reach the specially constructed railway station outside Ottawa. Already the capital city is completing preparations. A giant flag-draped crown has now been hauled into position on the parliament buildings; among the many other decorations erected. Added to the advance showing of bunting; shields and drapes all over the city; the sound of bugles and rolling drum echoes through the streets as military units rehearse the military features which will mark the royal visit.
