the people that We are intereste& in
them and it reminded them that FL
PaSO is their trade capital We also
were able TO show them that by pat
ronizing FL Paso for what they can't
buy at home they are keeping their
money at home in a sense, and help
ing the prosperity Of the whole sec
Walter Kohlberg-I think it was
splendid trip, but next time, we should
cut out the stops at the very small
places and put in more time at the
larger ones. Our time was too short
in the larger cities. believe, how
ever. that we put FL Paso into the
minds Of the people IN such a way
that much good viii result TO Fl Paso.
l am sure that we dissipated the Cali
Iornia idea largely among ArizOnians.
Carl A. Beers-It was a wonderful
trip and TO my mind viii be productive
OF great good. Even excluding the
trip to the Grand canyon, the trip was
pleasure beyond expectation.

We did not go seeking trade and IS

Best Yel Taken
George E. TrOst-This Grade ex-
cursion" was TIE best vet taken bv
the business men Of FL Paso. 1t gave
US all an opportunity to see many
places and TO meet many men we might
never have seen or met otherwise It
was a splendid trip, well worth the
time and money spent.
W c. McCormick.-The trip of the
FL Paso boosters is bound to result in
sOod along social as well as CONNER
car ines, not only to those who took
the trip, but to FL Paso as a whole.

sands Of strangers under circumstances
which ought to make them our friends
and friends Of FL Paso. 1t also has IA
mlnarized US with conditions in Ari-
iona and New Mexico and should ena-
bic US to so shape our business affairs
as to extend our trade to regions where
We have hitherto been considered as
strangers.
Best BY All Odds.
". T Hixson.-This excursion was by
all odds the best ever taken by the
business men Of Ell Paso and no doubt
viii do the business interests of FL
Paso world of good. One feature of
this trip that L like is that in a sense
we have been the hosts rather than
the guests of the places visited, and
that viii leave a better impression in
the territory tTaversed than if the
reverse had been true. Our splendid
band and our very good quartet fur
nished high class entertainment which
VIII not soon be forgotten by those so
fortunate as to have heard them
w. A Scrivner-This was absolutely
the most enjoyable and instructive
