California to Have an Inter-National
Exhibition.
San Franciso is diligently pushing the
preparations for its midwinter fair. The
subscriptions for the fair have now reached
1924, 900, and the San Franciscans are con-
fident Of grand success. Plans have been
submitted for a grand engine to furnish
power for the exhibits. 1t is to weigh forty
tons. Applications for space are constantly
being received. Among the latest is one for
circular track around the grounds, which
is to run twelve cars, each giving accommo-
dations for sixteen passengers. A concession
has been granted for building for Seryia,
Roumania and Montenegro, which is to
cost $4,000 and cover 1000 square feet of
ground
Governor Markham is beginning to receive
responses to his invitation to the Governors
Of all States, publicly recognize the Cali
fornia International Midwinter Exposition.
Govener PattisoD, of Pennsylvania. writes
that the people of this State will gladely CO.
operate in contributing to the success of the
exposition, and Governor Richards, of
Montana, says he will recommend liberal
attendance on the part of the Montanians.
The main buildings at the fair ground ds
are rising with astonish ing rapidity,
and the whole coast is more enthusiastic
than ever over over the project, as it mani
tested by numerous applications for space
coming from all sections. So great are
these it is believed the original site will
have to be extended

A philadelphia Firm Is Awarded High
est Honor.
1t will be source of pride the Philadel-
phians, inasmuch as it greatly rebounds to
the credit of the city as trade centre, to
learn that Messrs. strawbridge & Clothier
have been awarded two premiums of the
highest order of merit, for their exhibit of
ladies' suits and costumes and of ladies'
wraps, at the worlds Fair. This honor,
which was thoroughly deserved, is by no
means an empty one, since, in the con-
densed official catalogue issued by the Ex-
position authorities and entitled Interest
ing Exhibits the name of this eminent
firm was conspicuously mentioned out Of
four SO honored in the whole exhibition.
As the other three were Partisan artists,
the compliment is well worthy of COM
ment. Messrs strawbridge & Clothier
were the only exhibitors from Philadelphia
and we congratulate them, therefore, upon
the conspicuous and gratifying success
which they haye attained in worldwide
competition.
So says the Philadelphia Ledger, and we
are constrained to add that the many pa
irons of this great firm through the penin-
sula as well as in Philadelphia take pleas
ure and pride intheir preferment.
Probably no mercantile firm in that city
has more general peninsula patronage
than Strawbridge q Clothier, and mutually
the people who deal with them are glad to
know of their well merited honors.
The country as well as the city extends
congratulations.
