OF the Dallas Chamber OF Commerce
and Manufacturers Association, of

For the past sixteen years the

Each year the membership votes
upon the territory to be visited and
the itinerary selected for the 1916
excursion carries the party through
this section of the State.
These trade excursions while pri-
marily intended for the advancement
of business, are by no means mercen-
airy in their object; they are conduct
ed with the thought nppermost in
mind of bringing about closer per
sonal ACQUAINTANCE between the heads
OF the large commercial industries OF
Dallas and their customers through.
out the section traversed. They give
opportunity for the members Of the
party to meet their customers face to
face in friendly hand-clasp and since
no orders are solicited by any of the
members, the personal element be.

Dallas has 800 wholesale houses
doing an annual business of $2l2,-
100000. and 40 factories whose an
nual output, according to the 1915
census, amounts to s3l, 059,0OO.
In addition to being the distributing

DIR. ABBOTT, A GREAT TEACHER.

The history of our country, which
is not very long, may be studied in
several different ways. But in no
other way is the study so fascinating
or so enlightenipg as by means of BIZ
ography, writes Albert Shaw in the
American Review of Reviews for jan
uary in an article entitled, Lyman
Abbott at Eighty" Dr. Lyman Alb
bolts ancestors came to Massachusetts
about twenty years after the landing
of the Pilgrim Fathers at Plymouth.
Doubtless his own comprehension of
the growth of New England and the
making of America comes very large
ly through the experiences of father,
grandfather, and various family con-
| nections His own experiences in turn
will have helped later generations to
| understand better the American life
in which he has for so long a time
played his active and valuable part
DR.. Abbott was eighty years on the
18th of December. For more than
fifty years he has been prominent be-
fore the American public-one OF its
foremost teachers in the principles
and practice of freedom. He has shown
| great diversity of talent and remark
able skill in using the instruments of
several different professions. His work
as a whole, however. has been unified
and harmonious; and it has always
been that of public teacher. who be-
lieVes in orderly freedom of thought
\ and action. and who aims to lift indi-
| viduals and communities to that high
| plane of enlightenment upon which
conscience and reason may safely con-
| troll men in their choices and relation
| ships. Dr. Abbott came from line of
ministers, teachers, and authors. His
father and his uncle were proficient
and distinguished in those general
| fields of professional usefulness and
| service in which he and his own bro
theirs afterward became eminent A
few weeks ago there appeared a vol
ume entitled "Reminiscences" from

PROSPERITY DAY.

The Gerlach- Barlow Co, a publicity
and publishing firm of Joliet. Ill. may
or may not claim title to being the
originator of the Prosperity Day idea.
At any rate, it has issued a little folder
on the subject that presents the sug-
gestion in an admirable manner. as
follows: The great mint of Time has
coined for us an extra day in 1916. on
this day-Tuesday. February 29-the
United States will become millions of
dollars richer on account of the extra
twenty-four hours of time. You will
receive on this dsv an extra days
revenue, as will millions of others in
the United States. In view of these
facts it seems appropriate that Tues
day, February 20. should be known as
Prosperity Day throughout the United
States and that on this day every eff
fort should be made to focus the at
tention of the public upon the I'M
paralleled condition of prosperity that
now exists throughout the land. Let
the wage Garner open or increase his
bank account by putting his wages for
this extra day into the bank. Let the
stores have their Prosperity day sales.
Let the newspapers and orators cele-
pirate the occasion Dy explaining TO the
public how and why the United States
is the most favored nation in the
world. Let the associations of COM
merce and the farmers organizations
hold upon this day Get-TOgether Pros
perity meetings. For twenty-four
hours throughout this whole extra
day of time-let every man, woman
and child in this country forget the
trying times through which the world
has passed. and talk. think and feel
prosperity, Let us remember on this
day that the prosperity of the nation
is regulated by the prosperity of the
individuals that compose it-that
America is America because its citi-
zens as a whole have prosperity. In
short on this day, let's all of us lay
aside our hammers, forget our person
al worries and boost with every ounce
of energy in us for the continuation of
this great new era of prosperity.

bilist takes pride in his swiftness and
quickness. Has he not shown us how
he cracks watch crystal without in
juring the watch? Now if those I'M
fortunate people who on account of
the uneven distribution of wealth are
still obliged to go on foot would wear
acetylene lights in their hats like min
ers and would carry a bellows under
their arms like bagpipe players by
which they could squawk, toot or whis-
tie whenever they crossed the danger
zone, it would throw the responsibility
upon the machine. If under such cir
cumstances they still got run over and
killed il would be a consolation to
them in the next world to know that
the chauffeur was quite in the wrong.

Can't We Be Friendsa

On the street, the other day, I over

young man whom they had evidently

It's his place to say it TO you
But 1 was glad to see him. per-

anyone who belongs to Margaret, and
then 1 like him for himself. Why
shouldn't 1 have said SOP" '4
Because it isn't your place" the
first girl reiterated. "A woman should
never tell man she's glad to see
him
She was apparently proceeding to
elaborate on that old theme as they

Why Should Man Always Say the
Kind Thing?
Why shouldn't a woman express
herself naturally and unaffectedly to
a man friend? Why should it be al
ways mans place to say the kind
thing?
In a magazine the other day l read
very interesting little talk in which
a man tells how he found himself on
a New York bus with only a fiVe-dOl-
lar bill and a nickel. The fare is a
dime. The collector could not change
the bill, and the man was asked to get
of. Whereupon, instead Of 4 man, it
was woman who stepped
into the breach and offered him the
necessary nickel He tells with much
friendly relish of the frank, unaf-
fected way which she did it, how
proud he was to accept it, and how
much he admired and respected her
for doing il.
That's what one man thinks of the
woman who isn't afraid to meet men
on a friendly basis.
Personally, 1 can't believe that a
friendly give-and-take attitude be-
tween the sexes will be any loss for
woman.

WHO SHALL HAVE THE HORN:

1t is proposed in some quarters,
says the Independent TO abolish auto
mobile horns on the ground that they
cause more accidents than they pre-
vent as the chauffeur relies upon the
harsh blast to scatter the people in
front of him and so does not slow
down. The argument is good, but the
conclusion is wrong. The horns should
not be prohibited. but given to the
pedestrian. He has the right of way,
for he was on the ground first. and

Some of the political wiseacres
have figured it out that Colonel
Roosevelt is really planning on becom-
ing a bipartisan presidential candi-

of the Republican party. But there is
likely to be considera BILE divergence

Progressive and Republican conven-
