alihgosers asked each other as

otly cortailed festival activities
nit crested alt manner of prnb-
lats since the festival is held
isi in island which comprises
i tart of Toronto's park system

shboal. No one can prove it, of
citirse, but just hefore the storm
cowmenideed, Taj Mahal w asa
itoing a workshotp on work-songs

craft booths, even a leather-np-
rutned broom-maker who loked
