rates of the. Pennsylyania, the Pitts
burgh, Cincinnati, Chicago and st
increase in some cases, If allowed,
would amount to 100 per cent. A Leo
Weyl representing the shippers, con-
tended that the respondents have fall
ed to show a clear case of justification
of the proposed increases and therefore
the schedules fled by the railroads in
March should be condemned and not
allowed. He declared that a scientific
basis for rate making is needed and
than its proportion of the receipts from
the passenger Erain service on each
road, The railroads, he continued, are
met by the fact that the milk business
is constant yielding revenue all the
year; requiring no special equipment
for its carriage; that the milk is load
and in large part unloaded by the con-
sisnee; that there is small risk Incl
dent 70, its transportation and in case
of accident the damage is insignificant.
For these reasons milk should be given
rates which are relatively low.
W W: Collins. Jr., representing the
Connell, the Pittsburgh and Lake Erie,
said that the milk rates as they stand
to-day are substantially the same as
years past, and that the rates were
made years ago without any regard to
the cost of service. The proposed in
crease is made in connection with the
general revision of tariffs affecting the
revenue from passenger train service
and is identical with that now in force
in connection with Interstate ship
ments. The change in the method of
supplying milk for Pittsburgh. result

OF the Fall term in September This
school occupies the third and fourth
floors of the Troup Building at Isl
South Market Square, giving thorough
courses in business, stenotypy, short

The school was esta blished in 1894
and has maintained a steady growth
until it has grown to be the largest

are In attendance every year.

efficient teachers are required for in
struction, under the direction of D
l.. NJ. Raker, principal. A complete
equipment includes the most modern
office appliances in generaI use for
giving practical instructions to the
students to properly qualify them FOR
positions in business establishments.
Sixty standard, visible rypewriters are
included in the equipment in addition
to other mechanical facilities neces-
sary for rapid work in large quantities
when students enter the pig COM
mercial establishments.
The stereotype is taught at this
school and is a machine similar to the
typewriter, but used by many IN place
of shorthand to take rapid dictation.
Stenotypy is system of pain Eng
lish spelling with only the silent let
ters dropped, and the machine is
equipped with plain alphabet type so
arranged that one can make a word at
a stroke by striking several keys at
the same time, similar TO playing
chords on a piano. This makes speed
possibilities almost unlimited, and the
advantages claimed for it is that die

D. L. NJ. Raker has been the princi-

ROSE GIVES Timely
ADVICE TO SHIPPERS
Tells How to Attract and Hold
Business in Other
Countries

Harrisburg manufacturers are de-
lighted with the announcement that
this city, in connection with the Cham
Der of Commerce, is to be made

bureau of foreign trade. The only
other such office in the east is located
In New York.
After his address at the Harrisburg
Club Special Agent Stanley H. Rose
met manufacturers at the club and at
the Chamber of Commerce and dis
cussed foreign trade problems. He
gave them some valuable suggestions
as to how to attract and hold busi-
ness in other countries.
Timely Advice to Shippers
In conclusion Mr.. Rose gave an out
line of how business with foreign
countries should be constructed,
cautioning both shippers ana manu-
facturers to study we'll the needs of
the countries they wish to 90 business
with. He said
In sending representatives to South
America 1t must be borne in mind tnat
the salesman speaking Spanish and
portuguese huently has an immense
advantage. / personally would never
think of sending down a man who did
not understand and speak Spanish
fiuently. He must be a man of polish
ed appearance and of social and
polished manner. The quiet, polite
man who carries the conviction to his
customers that what he says he will
make good is the man for that coun-
try.
The best man in the United States
may not be the best man IN South
America. Your representative must
not hustle, he must approach his man
quietly, may have to make two trips
to get the business, the first to make
a good impression. the second to land
the order. Do not skimp him on his
expenses which will at least be $12
per day,
In selecting a man for foreign
travel be sure you have a man who is
morally steady" Great temptations
beset the young man who Is sent out
to foreign parts and he will nave to be
morally strong to withstand them
Then he will make good"
