NEW YORK, Dec. 2O-There will
be large British representation at
the Panama-Pacif1c exposition at San
Francisco in 1915. This was made
clear here tonight by Imre Kiralfy, d.
rector OF the 1914 London Anglo Ameri-
can exposition, who LIS now in this
country.
There should be no confusion be-
tween the official position taken by
the British government and the posi-
ton Of the British public" said Di-
rector Kiralfy tonight, Whatever the
final decision Of the government, and
do not believe we have yet had the
last word, the popular attitude, as
represented by the commission OF the
Anglo-American exposition, insures a
big exhibit of British art and manu-
features at San Francisco that will be
well worthy of Great Britain and of
the occasion. In as much as the ex-
pense seems to be the great objection
! have no doubt that If the Panama
Pacific exposition management would
suggest the use of part OF their main
buildings, the obstacle in the way of
an official British display would be
removed.

CHANGES ON \ FAMOUS CORNER
Livery Business to Mr.. Charles
Goddard

Messrs. Tompkins & Cobb have
sold the livery portion of their bus
mess to Mr. Charles Goddard, who
has been managing the business for
several years.
Messrs. Tompkins & Cobb will
will operate on far more extensive
scale than ever before, giving more
time to that department and will
handle more horses and mules than
ever before. Mr.. Tompkins will leave
this evening for the big Atlanta
stock yards, where he will buy two
loads of horses and mules to be ship
ped here at once. This firm also ex
poets to engage in other lines of bus
mess and being free Of the details
of the livery business can devote
some attention to them.
The livery business Of Tompkins
& Cobb, operated by them for the
past five years, has been in operation
continuously on the corner where it
is now located, owned and operated
by other people before them. for
nearly half century. Mr.. Charles
Goddard has been managing the liv
cry department of the business for
several years and for four months
this summer, when both partners
were absent, he ran the entire busi-
ness himself.
Both Messrs. Tompkins and Cobb
admit that Mr. Goddard is the best
liveryman they have ever seen. He
just comes natural to the business
and it to him, and then every man in
the whole country likes Charlie
Red Goddard. and that geniality
and popularity is a valuable asset in
the livery as we'll as other businesses.
The Star hopes that he can do even
better for himself than he has for
Tompkins & Cobb, and no one is de-
serving of success more than he.
