Enlisments for the Marine Corps have
been made this summer in numbers suf-
ficient to keep the corps nearly up to

standing the fact that recruiting officers

warm weather as during the winter. Last

Change Hour" Popular.

One of the features OF the exchange is
what is known as "'change hour" held in
the exchange offices on the second floor
of the building, 1917 II street. from 1870
to l 80 every week day, where the mem
bers gather to discuss trade conditions
and transact business. In the past month
this "'change hour has been attended by
from thirty to fifty business men daily
and at times resembles in a small way
trade exchanges of the great industrial
and manufacturing cities Of the country.
Its practical benefit, according to the
members. has been proven in a hundred
and one different ways. from the purchase
of small quantities of building supplies to
the adjustment of unsatisfactory trade
conditions. 1t is the purpose of the eX-
change to continue this change hour
every day of the year, excepting Sundays
and legal holidays.
Another important feature of the ex-
change, which incidentally gives an idea
of the character of Washington's manu-
facturies, is the exhibit hall. Arranged
on platforms or in cases in two large
adjoining rooms about 80 by 53 feet each,
are placed displays of many OF the large
and small local manufacturing establish
ments or the goods of local distributing
agents of outside firms.

grown very tanned and this golden
brown complexion was very becoming
