WHY NEW ORLEANS
CITY is LOGICAL POINT FOR
WORLDS PANAMA EXPOSITION.
Its Geographical Position and Many
Other Considerations Mark It as
Most Suitable Spot for Dedl-
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
viii be settled by Congress at its 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, viii be great ed
ucational movement It's success as
such, however, win 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 'fLogi-
cal Point" for this Panama EXPOSE
lion, 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 17,500,000
people. Within the same radius from
San Francisco there are only 100000
Within radius of 1000 miles from
New Orleans, there are 65,0O0,000
Within the same radius from San
Francisco there are only 100000
At an average of 900 miles from
New Orleans, there are 10 of our
principal cities with a combined
population of 20,O00.0O0. Averaging
900 miles from San Francisco there
are only 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.
Over rs per cent. of the 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 Pullman
fare and Dining Car expenses alone,
for trip to San Francisco, would
amount to more than all their trans
portation expenses for trip to New
Orleans.
This is an important public ques-
ton to be settled by Congress at the
session which convenes in December.
Many of our readers will wish to
visit this Worlds Panama EXPOSE
ton, and IL held in New Orleans a
great many more 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
leans in the contest.

"You don't want to overlook the
value of weight in the line said an
old coach "Of course the premium
lis now placed on speed, but a good
ilineman weighing 1870 equally as
speedy as man weighing 165 is just
twenty-five pounds more valuable"
Football will beN faster this year
than ever. There will be more open
plays. Of course, and the forward pass
will be employed much more frequent
~ than heretofore. Removing the
penalty for incompleted forward pass
takes away the chief objection to the
play.
Defensive men who can run and
jump will prove Of vast benefit. You
cannot block the man who goes out
to take the forward pass, SO an OPP
sponent who can leap high and capture
the ball win prove Of vast benefit on
defense In this way the basket ball
element win enter more than it has
in the past"

DAME NATURE HINTS
When the Food Is Not Suited.


When Nature gives her signal that
something is wrong it is generally
with the food. The old Dame Is al

To put Off the change is to risk that

man says:

breakfast. / tried various kinds of

starchy messes which gave me dis
tressing headaches. drank strong
coffee, too, which appeared to benefit
me at the time, but added to the head
