POSTAL EXHIBIT IS
BIG THING At EXPO

Public interest shown in the Post
office Departments exhibit at the Pan
anna Pacific International Exposition
is extremely gratifying to department
officials. NJ. q. Chance. chief clerk of
the department, who had charge of the
preparation of the exhibit, is advised
that the display attracts general at
tention and is of much educational
value.
1t consists of a model postoffice and
duplicates the workroom floor of the
Washington. ID. C.. postoffice. From
galleries above. the exposition visitors
see the sale of stamps and money or
iers. the receipt of letters and pack
ages for transmission by ordinary or
registered mail and the actual trans
action of parcel post and postal saw
inSs bank business.
Steel equipment, strictly conforming
to the departments most recent re-
quirements. has been used through
out. Automatic belt and basket con-
veyors carry letters and packages
mailed in the lobby to the facing and
stamping tables. Here, on a table
equipped with special devices. the let
tiers are automatically assorted by sizes
speed cancelling machines in which
they are postmarked and cancelled at
the rate of about 500 Il minute. From
this point the mail always in full view
of the exposition visitors. is worked
through various distribution cases,
whence each unit reaches its proper
mail bag and is made ready for its
journey by rail. Lecturers stationed in
the galleries explain each of the sew
erai processes.
Adjoining the model postoffice is the
picture room of the Govern
ment Exhibit Board. Here free display
of postal operations may he seen in

signs of the new smelter were drawn
by RedpaCh x McGregor. All de-
tails. however, were first submitted
to Senator Clark whom his assOci-
ates credit with many valuable sug-
gestions and changes.
Senator Clark has also taken great
interest in the housing and general
welfare of employees. including con-
struction of the model town of Clark
dale, the planting of orchards and
the cultivation of truck gardens on
the river flats. \ cold-storage plant
for keeping fruits and vegetable out
of season. equipped with a cotton
York ice machine, motor driven, has
even been provided. The facts con-
corning this welfare work will be
given in a separate article.
From an economic standpoint, the
new operations inaugurated at
Clarkdale have great Importance; for,
besides handling the output OF the
United Verde mine. and later of the
Copper Giant and blackberry mines
under the same interests, a large
quantity of custom ore will be treat
ed. thus facilitating copper mining in
the entire district. Low grade ore
from both the Clark properties and
others that could not heretofore be
economically handled will also be
smelted, thereby not only charging
production but also bringing down
average costs. The capacity of the
plant will approach 800 tons daily, or
more than double that of the old
works Thos. Taylor, who made an
enviable record at the old smelter in
jerome. has. been placed in charge OF
the new reduction works at Clark
