FOR SOUTH'S TRADE
Plan to Induce Buyers to Come
Here Proposed.

Chamber of Commerce and Board of
Trade Ready to Back
Movement.

An invasion of the south by representa-
tives of commercial Washington for
the purpose of inducing southern buyers
to come to the National Capital to make
their purchases is under considerations
The Chamber of Commerce and the
Board of Trade will, it is expected, take
a prominent part in the movement ana
the Southern Commercial Congress which
| is located here, viii assist in every way
the project.
| Capt James F. Oyster said today that
the Chamber of Commerce was ready TO
give its support to any venture when
sought to develop the commercial actiy-
| tiles of Washington. He said that ne be
| lieved the south offered great Held 10
Washington merchants and great
| amount of business could be obtained
| there by Washington merchants if they
went after it.
I'VE have been going after big conven-
| tions for several years and landing them
for Washington" said Capt Oyster. "and
| I believe that by the same progressive
methods we can bring much of the south
| ern business to this city.
Views of Mr.. Moses.
Arthur Moses vice president Of the
Board of Trade. said that he believed
Washington should learn first what it
had which the SOuIH leIuil eu btloit Gil
tering upon a campaign to encourage
trade with the southern states
Il believe that the manufacturing inter-
ests of Washington must be developed
greatly if this city is 10 obtain lnuch
| trade with the SOUTH said Mr.. Moses
There is a great opportunity for the
establishment of light manufacturing in
dustries in the District of Columbia and
| believe that the commercial organiZa-
tons of the city should bend every effort
to bring such industries here. When they
have been developed then we may hope
to obtain a great deal of the trade with
the south
D. J. Callahan. first vice president of
the Chamber of Commerce. and general
manager of the Norfolk and Washington
Steamboat Company. declared that any
movement to better trade conditions i'll
this city would have the support of the
officials of the steamboat company.
Great Field for Trade.
Speaking for the Southern Commercial
Congress- DR.. Clarence ]. Owens, commits
sioner of agriculture of that organiza-
ton said that some time ago he ap
peared before the Chamber of Commerce
and spoke of the great field for trade
which the southern states offered the Ma
tional Capital. The Southern Commercial
Congress. he said, is as much interested
in the development of Washington COM
mercially as are the merchants them
selves.
Railroad officials also are indorsing the
plan to send representatives of Wash
ington business houses into the south.
At present, it was said, definite plans
but the matter probably will be taken up
at early meetings of the Chamber OF
Commerce and Board of Trade and other
organizations.

Use Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey as pre-

Number of Votes You Get

The widespread interest in this
contest is easily accounted for when
the value of the prizes to be awarded
is compared iwth the yearly earning
power of the average man or woman.
Men in politics even strive with all
their energy for office that does not
yield the return in year that the
World Is giving away absolutely free
in just six short weeks.
In addition to the great number OF
prizes to be awarded, each candidate
who does not win receives ten per
cent of all the money she has turned
in, providing her name is on the clos
ing list. Many of the ladies have en-
tered the contest with the sole inten-
ton of earning a big salary In con-
nection with the contest. and they are
doing it, Many are earning from ten
to twenty-five dollars a week. and
yet they all have the same chance TO
win one of the automobiles, or any
other prize on the list.
Whether or not there are smart
politicians on the list of candidates.
remains to be seen. That there are
some good -getters-ladies who
have shown astonishing proficiency In
the campaign. is already indicated by
q glance at the vote list. But the
unknown contestants are yet TO be
reckoned with. That there are n
fey unknowns is clearly indicated
each day in many different ways.
1t is altogether too early in the con-
test to try an analysis of these figures,
but IL one We're planning on a little
book-making as a side diversion, one
would find their task no small one,
and many unknown forces would
have to be reckoned with.
Whole Territory Voting.
There is hardly a postoffice in the
eighteen counties that has not yielded
some votes. Before the close of the
contest, there will be hardly a house
or place of business in the territory
that will not have cast some votes
either directly or indirectly
The phase of the contest which
makes il advisable 20 cast some votes
every day., in order to keep In the
running, will to some extent relieve
the pressure at the end of the con-
test. The daily vote this week will
undoubtedly be heavy, for this week
the very important vote offer of 15,-
900 extra votes on each set of five
new six months subscriptions comes
to an end. and with the most impor-
tant period of the contest.
Rules and Conditions.
Vote once issued cannot be trans
ferred
Votes cannot be bought. They
must either be clipped from The
World or secured by special ballots
issued on subscriptions.
Candidates can not be confined to
their own district in securing votes
but they may secure subscriptions
anywhere in the United States.
Candidates May Have Anyone Any
where Work For Them.

ADAMS SCHOOL
TAKEN AS MODEL

Adams, Oregon, February 10
Adams public school was honored
last Wednesday, February 8, by a
Noordhoff and Director ]. 3. Sayior
of Ferndale district put in the day
taking observations. They wanted to
see the specialization of subjects in
operation with a view of introducing
it in the Ferndale school If it had the
advantages which Principal Haley
claimed for it. Mr.. Saylor was at one
time school teacher at Adams and
found some Of the children Of pupils
who were under his instruction, now
reaping the benefit of improved meth
DDS.
Both gentlemen expressed them
selves as well pleased with the way
Principal Haley demonstrated his the
ory and commended the system on the
following grounds:
1. 1t gives each teacher his favorite
subject. The daily preparation for
four or more recitations on the same
subject keeps the teacher thoroughly
familiar in the entire course of In
struction in that branch.
2. The principal has personal con-
tact with each pupil above the fourth
grade.
3. Opportunity is furnished to as
certain the thoroughness of associated
instructors without embarrassing the
pupils or offending the teachers.
Teachers and pupils enjoyed the in
ovation and would other visitors from
other districts. A few parents have
visited the school and some others
! have promised to do so soon.
