Losing a Market.

American manufacturers should bestir them
selves or Germany will soon crowd them out
OF the Canadian market. The removing OF the
German surt1x has greatly increased trade re-
lations between the two countries. The cam

personal solicitation and a large number of
manu- facturers from the fathcrland about
t. come over to Canada to solicit trade. The
GermuDs are patient and very methodical, and
unless opposed vigorously by the men OF trade
CT this country, are bound to make an impress
sion business across border The mat
ter has already aroused comment the part
OF Canadian newspapers. One OF them. select
ing two items of commerce. shows that In two
years importations from the United States
Dropped 20 per cent, and during thu same time
Germany had increased its export OF The same
goods GO per cent. Overconfdence un loubtedly
has much to do with this far this country
Is concerned. American manufacturers seem
b. think that because Canada Is close and
the matter OF shipment so simple this Canadians
naturally will buy here. IT is the oil story OF

The Only
Fortune-Teuer.

we ever heard Of who did any REAL GOOD
was one who four years ago warned a young
lady depositor Of bank that she would
soon have a serious Illness and Feverses.
This prophecy made the young lady THINK.
and Immediately she began to save a regu
lar sum from her weekly salary (not that
she attached any special value to the words
of the fortune-teller. but she began to think
Of the many things she MIGHT need money
for in the future).

was all a myth. but the very substantial ac-

Norman Retires
From Presidency

The announcement by Roy Moor
man of his retirement from the presi-
dency and managership Of the firm of
Roy Norman & Company comes as
a surprise to automobilists and other
friends of the concern. The announce
ment follows the transfer by Roy
Norman of his holdings in the cor
poration to Gait H. Ingram, who has
been associated with the company for
the past seven months.
The firm of Roy Norman & Com
pany opened the first store in the val
ley for the exclusive sale of automo-
bile tires and accessories, having as
one of its leading items the Imperial
valley distributing agency for the
Savage and Lee tires.
Gait H. Ingram, Mr.. Moorman's sue
cessor as president and manager, is
son of R. H. Ingram, formerly general
superintendent of the Southern Pacif-
ic company and Imperial valley ranch
owner, and brother of Alex G. Ing
ram, who for several years has been
identified with the valleys realty in
terests. Gait Ingram, during the sew
eral months he has been associated
with Roy Norman & Company, has
made many friends in the valley.
When interviewed this morning Mr..
Norman gave the Press the follow
ing statement:
81 have today retired from the presi-
dency and management of Roy Moor
man & Co., which l established Febru-
airy 1, 1912, having sold my interest in
the corporation to Gait Ingram who
has been my associate and partner for
the past nine months. In retiring
from the firm wish to thank all my
friends for the support and assistance
they have given me in trying to build
up in Ell Centre in this great Imperial
valley an up-to-date business and SER
vice in automobile supplies and acces-
sories, commensurate with progress
and development of the automobile in
dustry in this territory. l am much
indebted to my many friends and to
the Imperial valley people generally
for the support, confidence and patron
age which they have accorded me and
/ bespeak for my successor their con-
tinued good will"

Armstrong Baby
Dolls Make Hit

September Morn" played by the
Armstrong Follies Co., at the opera
house last night pleased the packed
house that turned out to see the Baby
Dolls. The company is well balanced
and the principals and choru.' pat on
some very catchy musical numbers.
Tonight the Armstrong Players pre-.
sent an entire change of program,
"The Soul Kiss" This show has never
been seen at popular prices before and
in addition to the show tonight the
Baby Dolls will present chorus girls
contest, something that has never been
presented here before. Three prizes
will be given and the audience will be
the Judge. This extra attraction in
addition to the musical comedy "The
Soul Kiss" should fill the house again
tonight.

IMPERIAL
Club to Observe
Christmas Week

The members of the Womans Ten
Thousand Club have in anticipation q
meeting on Thursday that will par
take of all the delights of truly
Christmas party.
The arrangements for the afternoon
are in charge of Mrs. Winthrop Pier
who will be assisted by Mrs. j. r.
Garren.
There will be short program bear
ing on the happy Yuletide. A read
ing, "The First Christmas Tree" by
Mrs. Winthrop Pier; Selections from
"The Birds Christmas Carol" by Mrs.
H. L. Baker; and story, "The Other
Wise Man." by Mrs. w. G. Conley.
These readings will be interspersed
with vocal selections by Miss Inez
Collier and Mrs. Phil D. Swing.
An innovation to Ell Centre club
women that should induce all members
to attend is the fact that the ladies
are invited to bring their Christmas
work, that no time may be wasted
and that their hands may be kept
busy while their minds are being re-
freshed.
And the hostesses, further request
that each member bring an article
neatly wrapped, the cost of which is
not to exceed ten cents, as contri-
button to the Christmas Pie. "When
the pie is opened" it is presumed
everyone shall have opportunity to ac-
quire long coveted treasure.
The occasion will be the regular
meeting of the club to be called at
2:3O in the afternoon.

Boston, Dec. 17.-"Revolution i'm

ed," declared Roger w. Babson, the
noted statistician, in an address be-
fore the Twentieth Century Club. Mr..
Babson's remedy for present condi-
tions is to forbid all bequests toindi-
viduals, all property accumulations to
revert to the state and to be used in
starting young men and women in life
and supporting them until they arrive
at the voting age.
Mr.. Babson declared himself ire
vocably opposed to Socialism.

SAYS POWDER TRUST
MAINTAINS A LOBBY
Independent Manufacturer
Makes Charges Against
Dupont Company.

WASHINGTON. Ian. ia drastic
provision aimed at the so-callcd powder
trust. following testimony alleging that
the Dupont Powder company maintains
q lobby here and spends hundreds OF
thousands Of dollars in Washington
features the fortiication appropria ton
bill reported TO the house today
The bill. which carries an aggregate
of s5,2iS 25O. directs that no part OF the
appropriation shall be expended FOR
powder. other than small arms powder
at Il price In excess Of % cents a pound.
Both the army aud navy powder plants
at Plcatinny arsenal and Indian Head
respectively. are making powder at
mucl. less than the 60 cents which the
government now pays per pound to the
Dupont Powder company of Wilmington,
Del.
Robert 5. Waddcll representing the
Hoynes Safety Powder company OF
Cleveland. o., charged In testimony be-
fore the appropriations committee that
the Dupont company kept on the Potomac
river for some time tho private yacht
Of IT. c. Dupont
THAT yacht" said Waddell. ''the skip
per told me. was for general entertain
ment purposes and made excursions be-
tween Washington and Indian Head, y
Waddcll testified he did not know OF any
money being spent in corruptinS any
government official by the Dupont pco-
Pile, but said that army and navy Of
iiclals came in direct contact with Scna-
tor Henry a Dupont, chairman OF the
senate committee on military affairs
whose position gives him strong infu
ence compared with that OF an outside
manuis cturcr." He cited instances where
he said, 'ithe intimacy and confidence
grown up between the Dupont people
resulted In lax inspection in the Dupont
plant.
ContendIng that lobbies in Washington
were IAN offcnse rather than bene-
iit' To the government. Mr. Waddell said
the Dupont company maintained in
Washington Col. Edmund 6. Buckner.
vice president OF the company and the
president OF the International Smokcless
Powder company who "devotcs his en-
tire time and attention 20 Washington
business"
Mr., Waddell charged that there was
q complete monopoly in the United
States in ordnance and smokeleSs pow
ders, in rifle and shotgun smok cless
sporting powders: that he knew OF but
ono Independent mine bla sting powder
company and that the five or six dyna-
mite companies all had the same prices;
that about eighty companies combined
into the Dupont trust: and that for Years
when the trust wants 10 drive compeii
tors out OF business. they reduce the
price i'm that district and get their reve-
nuc from other sources"
Colonel Buckner, as vice president OF
the Dupont company, told the commit
tee that the WaddelI charges were net
work of falschoods and denied the
charges In detail.
