WHY NEW ORLEANS
CITY is LOGICAL POINT FOR
WORLDS PANAMA EXPOSITION.
Its Geographical Position and Many
Other Considerations Mark 1t as
Most Suitable Spot for Dedi-
cation Of Great Work.

Public sentiment has decided that
the completion of the Panama Canal
In 1915 shall be celebrated with a
great International Exposition in
which all the nations of the world
may participate; and the question OF
where this Exposition Is to be held
Will be settled by Congress at it's ap-
preaching session.
New Orleans and San Francisco
are contesting for the honor of hold
ing this Exposition, and both cities
have guaranteed immense sums of
money as an evidence of their ability
to finance so great an enterprise
An Exposition worthy of the term
worlds Fair" such as New Orleans
proposes to build, will be a great ed
ucational movement. It's success as
such, however, will depend entirely
upon the percentage of our popula-
ton who can secure its educational
advantages, this in turn, depends up
on its location, as the time in travel
Ing to and from the Exposition, and
the cost in railroad and Pullman
fares, are the most important factors.
Considering these matters, New
Orleans claims to being the "Logi-
cal Point" for this Panama Exposi-
tion, seem to be fully substantiated
by the following facts:-
New Orleans is 500 miles from the
center Of population in the United
States. San Francisco is $500 miles
distant therefrom.
Within a radius Of 500 miles from
New Orleans there are 17,500,0o0
people. Within the same radius from
San Francisco there are only 100000
Within a radius of 1000 miles from
New Orleans there are 65,0O0000
Within the same radius from San
Francisco there are only 6,000,000.
At an average of 900 miles from
New Orleans, there are 20 of our
principal cities with combined
population of 20,000,000. Averaging
900 miles from San Francisco there
are only 8 large cities, with a COM
bined population of Just 100000.
The average distance of all these
cities to New Orleans is 1872 miles,
to San Francisco 2,407 miles.
ONel 10 per CenL. Oh Ine people OF
the United States could go to an
Exposition there at an average ex-
pense for railroad fare of $3.50, as
against an average of $3.50 to the
Pacific Coast; and for several mil
lions of our people, the Pulman
fare and Dining Car expenses alone,
for a trip to San Francisco, would
amount to more than all their trans
portation expenses for a trip to New
Orleans.
This is an important public ques-
tion to be settled by Congress at the
session which convenes in December
Many of our readers will wish to
visit this Worlds Panama Exposi-
ton, and If held in New Orleans a
great many moro could spare the
time and money for the trip than
could go to San Francisco. There
fore, we urge our readers to write to
the two senators from this State and
the congressman from this district,
requesting them to support New Or

Chafinn Dish Dishes.

AS the bTacing and cool days of a.
tumn come upon us, the chatting dish
which has been having It's vacation
time, is welcomed with a real delight
There are so many appetizing dishes
which are only prepared and served
In perfection from the chatting dish.
One of the most charming things
about a chatting dish Is the seeing a
dish made before the eyes. For be-
ginner it is best to start with some
thing simple, like fried bacon or liver
and bacon. Rub the blazer with
onion anG put in the bacon. When
crisp, lay in thin slices of liver which
have been rolled in flour. Serve each
piece of liver with a slice of bacon.

onion and brown in the blazer in a
tablespoonful of olive oil mix togeth-
er tablespoonful of no and a tea
spoonful Of curry powde., add to the
onion, stir and cook until bubbling,
then add threefourths Of cup Of
hot water, teaspoonfsl of salt, the
juice of half lemon and the salmon.
Sardines on toast are another sim
pie and tasty dish. Heat the sardines
and put on pieces of toast cut the size
and shape of a lady finger Serve
with chopped onion put on lettuce
leaves arranged around a platter.
A Savory Rechauffe-Sti together
tablespoonful of jelly, apple, cur
rant or grape and two tablespoonfuls
of butter in the blazer until melted.
Lay in slices Of rare roast beef or
cold mutton or lamb; season with salt
and pepper, turn often and serve.
Creamed Lobster.-Chop the flesh
of medium-sized lobster Beat the
yolks of two eggs and mix with two
tablespoonfuls of cream. Season with
salt, onion juice, pepper and nutmeg.
Melt two tablespoonfuls of butter in
the chaflng dish. When hot add the
lobster meat; when hot add the sea-
sonings. Serve on buttered toast.
Curried Eggs.-Take six hard-boiled
eggs, slice crosswise into four thick
slices. Brown small onion In q
tablespoonful of butter, add a table
spoonful of flour, a teaspoonful Of
curry powder, half a teaspoonful of
salt and a cupful of stock; cook until
smooth, then add two tablespoonfuls

Della a.-particularly in the matter of
apple pies. Furthermore, after the
death of Judge Taft his widow made
her home until her death with Aunt
Della. and hither came William H.
Taft at frequent intervals to visit his
mother and his aunt.
The home OF Aunt Della is located
on the main street of the little village
and within sight Of the passengers on
the trolley cars bound for Worcester,
some half-hour's tide distant. The
house is large, w a portico in front
supported by columns rising to the
second floor and 1t appears immacu-

trasted with the green shutters which
one comes to look upon as inevitable
in New England. The house is sur
