The conventions and congresses to
meet during the exposition period
will indeed have q wide educat ational
influence. One OF the most inter-

national Engineering congress. The
engineers Of the Pacific coast have
already raised a large sum to finance

congresses and conventions, at which
more than $4,000 accredited delegates
will assemble, have voted to meet in
San Francisco in 1915. 1t is expected
that fully 500 conventions will have
decided to meet in San Francisco by
the time the great celebration opens.
The delegates to these assemblages
will come from every portion of the

propaganda will present in standard

Rapid Construction.
Construction upon the exposition
carly broke all records in expost ,on

promise made by President Charles C.
Moore, more than two N@t,rs ago t,r;,t
the exposition would swing open its
gates upon fully perfect. 4 spectacle.
AT this writing many of the huge ex-
hibit palaces are practically completed
and all will be finished eight months
before the opening of the expositien
Preparation for the adornment of
the huge exhibit palaces and the
courts have kept pace with eonstrnc-
tion. The works of a number of
Americas most notable sculptors and
artists are now in evidence and bear
Out the high promise for their beauty
and originality made early in the
history of the exposition. The land
scaping, which will be perfected to a
far greater extent than has been
possible at any former universal ex-
position, is far advanced. Hundreds
OF thousands of rare shrubs and
trees, including five hundred giant
tree ferns ffom Australia, have
reached San Francisco to be set upon
the grounds.
