G., N, Deere WRITES
THAT He WILL COME
g. M. Parry Decides TO Attend
Convention
TO BE HELD DEC. 1910
Prospects Are Good for Biggest
Meeting of All.

Secretary Van Zandt Of the Southwest
Kansas and Oklahoma Hardware and
Implement Dealers association yesterday
received q letter from c. II. Deere, pres
i6ent of Deere & Co, manufacturers of
piows. saying that he Will be in Wichita
to attend the convention in this city De-
ccmber s, 9 and 10. In addition to it.,
Mr.. Van Zandt also received one from
ID. NJ. Parry. in which the writer says
he will arrive in Wichita on the morning
OF December to attend the gathering.
With the assurance that these two gen.
tlenen will be here and the many other
arrangements which are finished for the
entertainment that week, the coming con-
vention viii undoubtedly be the greatest
ever held by the organization.
While it was anticipated that Mr. Parry
would attend the convention, as told in
the Eagle some time back. it was not
definitely known whether he would at
tend or not. He is millionaire manu-
fslcturer and gained much prominence
recently through his adversely TO labor
organizations In addition to being pres
Manufacturers, he is president of the
Citizens Industrial association, an or
ganization for the protection Of employ
ers. His speech here viii be along the
lines of manufacturing and, no doubt
interspersed with some ideas ON labor and
capital. He was induced to cancel num-
erous agements to come to Wichita
next week during the convention.
c. II. Deere, president of Deere & Co,
manufacturers of plows at Moline, III,
is probably one OF the best known men
IN the country He no doubt realizes
Wichita's rapid growth toward becoming
a center for distributing machinery to
the entire surrounding country and what
an important implement market the
city is.
Neither Mr. Parry or Mr.. Deere have
ever before visited the city of Wichita,
and great preparations are being made
90 entertain them during they stay here.
