Supreme Court and the foreign repre-

Luncheon will be served in this build

ing the President will go to the main
Government building, where a recep-
ton will be held In the rotunda. This
building will be closed to the general
public for the time being, admission

meet the President will be issued by
the Government board. At the close Of
this reception the President will be
conducted to such buildings as he may

Electric Tower to view the Exposition
from the lofty loggia.
There has been no time since the
opening Of the Exposition when visit
to the great show could be more de-
lightfuL Everything connected with
the enterprise is at the zenith Of its
glory. Every night the magnificent
illumination takes place; the fountains
are everywhere active; the floral deco
rations and the exhibits Of flowers are
at the height of their perfection; Abe
best Of musicians are playing every
day in the Temple of Music and 1.-The
various band stands; the military
camps are alive with troops, which
lend their share to the public enter
tainment by daily drills and parades;
the Midway is gay and noisy every day
and evening; the crowds are big and
every day growing bigger. Indeed,
nothing is lacking to make the EXPOSE
ton complete, and its magnificence can
never be adequately described.
In the various exhibit buildings every
thing is moving with most interesting
regularity. The large number Of NOV
ing exhibits in the 20 or more great
structures devoted to exhibits give to
these magnificent displays of merchan-
disc very keen interest Never was
American enterprise more perfectly ex-
plotted than here at the Pan-American.
The variety is something particularly
noteworthy. There is no tedious repe-
tition of exhibits, but what is shown Is
intended to be and is typical of the
particular industry to which it may be-
long.
One cannot see the Pan-American
satisfactorily In a week. He should
have at least ten days or two weeks
and as much more as he can afford.
Those who live continually at the Elk
position do not tire Of its festivity and
grandeur, for every day presents a
new programme and new interest.
To participate In this wondrous cele-
bration Of century's achievements in
the western world must be accounted
by every one who has a proper sense of
appreciation as a privilege to be val
ued beyond price.

nounced for observance at the Exposh
