EXPOSITION TO BE READY.
National Conservation Show To Make
New Record In This Respect.

The hundreds of thousands of visit.
ors from all parts of the country, and
particularly from the Southern States,
to the National Conservation EXPOSE
ton can be assured of one fact even at
this early date: That no matter how
early they make their visit to the ex-
position after the gates are formally
thrown open they will see the displays
complete.
Work is so far advanced now that
everything will be ready on the open.
ing day and the complete line OF ex-
hibits in all of the many big, white
buildings, and in all of the various de-
partments of these buildings, will like
wise be ready.
Too many times in the history of ex-
positions in other parts Of the country
it has happened that the first weeks
saw only portion of the exposition
complete. This will not be the case
at Knoxville.

The National Conservation Exposi.
ton that will be held in the pictur.
esque city of Knoxville from Septem-
Der l to November l, of the present
year, will be the one big event of the
year in the South.
No meeting, no gathering, no con-
ference, no exhibition of any kind will
overshadow in importance the Nation
al Conservation Exposition. 1t will be
national in scope, national in charac-
ter.
The National Conservation Exposi.
ton has been planned along broad
lines and is designed to teach the
great lesson of the necessity of con-
serving the resources that nature has
so beautifully bestowed on the coun-
try. More especially will the necessity
of conserving the immense resources
of the South be brought out and en-
phasized at the Exposition.
Following are a few facts that give
some idea of the magnitude and the
aims of the National Conservation Ex-
position:
The exposition plant represents an
outlay of over $2,000,000.
The site of the exposition is in the
most beautiful park in the South--a
park that nestles in the foothills of the
great Smoky mountains, picturesque,
rolling, green, highly improved.
Eleven Big Buildings.
The exposition grounds embrace
with lakes and drives over one hun
dred acres.
Never was a site for an exposition
with more natural advantages chosen,
never one better adapted to exposition
purposes.
Eleven large exposition buildings,
modern, stately, snowy white, as well
as a number of smaller buildings, will
house this exposition.
Railroads realize the Importance of
the exposition and are cooperating in
every way In the enterprise.
National leaders of conservation
with Clifford Pinchot as chairman are
directing the exposition.
Sixteen Southern states have formed
boards for exposition work and these
boards are actively engaged in the col
lection of comprehensive exhibits and
In arranging state days for the expo
sition.
South a Treasure House.
The National Conservation Exposi-
ton at Knoxville during September
and October will be different" The
displays in various lines will be the
largest, the most diversified. the most
interesting ever seen In any exposition
in the South; they will compare favor.
ably with any exposition ever held In
the United States and they will all
teach graphically, eloQuently and point
eddy the lesson of conservation, ad.
mittedly one Of the greatest questions
before the American people to-day.
And about all the South-the great
South, the South that Is treasure
house of the nation, the South busy
with the hum and the whirr of count
less manufacturing industries-will be
on display in Knoxville during the ex.
position. The South with its tremend-
Gus resources and great industrial pro-
gress will be strikingly typified.
There will be much for every citizen
of the country to see In Knoxville dur
ing the exposition months, there will
be much for every one to learn.

 WILL BEAT FAIR
Mrs. Ad Topperwein Will Give Ex
 hibtions

Mrs Ad TopperWein, the champion shot of the world will spend week in Arizona, attending the Arizona State Fair, the first week in November. Mrs. TOpperwein is said to be the greatest shot the world has ever seen, male or female. She can keep a tin cup up in the air or rolling along the ground, Obeyng her slightest whim with the tiny shots of her little twenty two rifle. She paints pictures on a target of Indian chiefs with their war paint, hat and feathers. with her rifle and revolver shots. She shoots so rapidly that you can only distin- guish the pit pit of the little lead bull lets as they strike the target, and the eye discerns the outline of the features she is drawing.
 Her distinguished husband, who is almost as good a shot as she is, will be with her, representing the Winches- ter Repeating Arms company Mir. Harry Hoyt, representing the Winchester Repeating Arms company:
 Fred Willett and Ed Mitchell, repre-
 senting the Selby Lead & Smelling
 company; Dick Reed, representing the
 Remington Arms company: James S
 Day and A. w. Bruner, representing
 the Peters Cartridge company; Wm Bowman and Guy Hilohan, represent
 ing the Dupont Powder company.
 These men are the greatest shots in
 the world and will participate in the
 Phoenix gun tournament every morn
 ing on the fair grounds range, south of
 the track. Every afternoon before the
 grand stand Mrs. Topperwein. assisted
 by the great experts mentioned above.
 will give an exhibition of their skill for
 the benefit of those attending the
 greatest fair that was ever pulled off

INCREASE IN
 POSTAL FORGE
Will Soon Be Necessary Be cause of Growth of Bus iness-EXpected Receipts for December S15,OOO-' Last Year $11,000

An expected large increase in postal business in Phoenix is reason for the issuance yesterday of call for appli- cants for the position of clerk and car Tier in the local office. Far greater than the usual summer winter fIuctua- tiOns of business will be the increase with the coming of the busy months and the pOstmaete.. has planned to be ready for the additional work.
 November l is the date set for the tests and Secretary Craig of the Phoe- nix office of the civil service will con- duct tktm. The papers in the ex- amina tions, together with the anpli- cation blanks. must be in the hands of the secretary at San Francisco on October 1st, and this should be borne in mind by the competitors.
 So anxious is Colonel McClintock to secure extra good men for his new as sistants that he is willing to see every applicant and advise him to the extent of his power about the work He will fe glad t0 see young fellows of proper physical condition and having at least an eighth grade education enter the examination.
 The positions will carry q favorable starting wage of $500 a year. and will be raised $100 each year up to $1 200 Then there are opportunities to rise beyond that point to still more lucra- tive places in the service.
 The looked for increase in postal business is going to be beyond the nor mai. In an office where postal re- ceipts are growing every year it is ex- ceedingly hard to estimate future in creases Another thing that will enter the calculation is the annual summer and winter fluctuation. a factor that does not affect the figures in the of IIces. Postmaster McClintock, passing hIs estimate on the receipts of last January and on other things, predicts that over S15.0OO will be received dur Ing the busy month of December, 1913 The receiuts last December were about Sl1.O00. The increases this year have run about $2.OOO q month.
