HOW EXPOSITION IS
OF COUNTY BENEFIT
PARTICIPATION WILL NOT ONLY
De PERMANENT BUT VERY
ECONOMICAL.
EXHIBITS TO BE EDUCATIONAL
"0txie Reef" Name Of Amusement
Street.-The Thoroughfare Of
Fun and Laughter at
Big Show.

A great deal of careful thought was
given the proposition OF county and
municipal participation in the Exposi.
ton by the Commission. 1t was the
desre Of this body to design a plan
that would prove economical and at
the same time beneficial. As a result
Of this investigation, the counties and
municipalities are offered a most at.
tractive proposition for a participation
that S permanent and economical.
While the Exposition will run for a
period of six months and attract hun.
dreds of thousands Of visitors, 1t Is
contemplated to keep the exhibit halls
open practically all Of the time for
many years to come. Expositions will
be held during every February and
March while several hundred thou.
sand visitors from the North are
spending the winter here or attending
the Mardi Gras festivities at New Or
leans or Mobile
During the summe and early fall a
high grade chautauqua will be pro.
NOTED and people from all sections Of
the South brought here for a few days
or weeks. Encampments of the Mis-.
sissippi National Guard will be held at
Exposition Park each summer, and
this event always attracts many thou,
sand visitors. The park will be kept
open for enjoyment by the great
throngs OF visitors to the coast acc.
ton In summer.
.
Counties and municipalities will be
invited to participate on the basis Of
permanency. That is, they will make
exhibits to be enclosed in beautifully
designed glass cases to be placed in
the Mississippi building. BY this
mean an exhibit will last for years,
being protected from damage by dust
or insects. Substitution and additions
car be made at any time desired and
the exhibit kept up to the standard.
After the initial investment the
county will be at no added expense
to keep its showing in fine shape for
view by the constant stream of visit
ors that will come every day. While
initial inyestment-will be a bit more
than IL only a temporary showing was
made, in the long run this plan is
bound to be far more economical and
attractive to the good business men
who are in charge Of county and city
affairs. !
Some Of the counties have already
accepted this suggestion and will have
permanent exhibits and others will no
doubt do SO SO soon as the PROPOSE

The Geological Exhibit.

The State Geological Department,
presided over by DR.. E. N. Lowe, will
be represented by a comprehensive
display of geological specimens. Our
people have been taught that Missis.
sippi was not rich in minerals, but it
Is possible that we have been mistaken
to a greater or less degree. Recent
developments have tended to dispel
this illusion.
A specially designed room Of ample
propositions will be provided for the
geological exhibit, and DR.. Lowe is
already at work collecting and arrang.
ing an excellent showing of our wealth
In that particular line. It will be an
eyeopener to our own people as well
as the visitors who will come in great
crowds during the Exposition.
The space occupied and designed for
the Geological Department will be
filled with a display Of a permanent
nature and it will be there for inspec.
ton by every one who visits Exposi.
ton Park, either during the Exposi.
ton or for years afterward. The Com.
mission was gratified at the chance to
provide quarters for so important q
branch Of state government.
There is no reason why a state de-
partment or state institution of any
character should not make a most
creditable showing at the Exposition,
In some instances funds may be some
what short, but a resourceful and de.
serving official will always find a way
II he Is really interesed. |
There is not a county or community
in the state of Mississippi that cannot
share In the benefits to be derived
from the Exposition If they will only
make the effort. The investment will
be nominal and the profits sufficient
to warrant the greatest effort. The
county too poor to give 1t a trial will
always be too poor. Prosperity comes

Than CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets are
q Harmless Substitute

DR.. Edwards Olive Tabiets-the sub
stitute for calomel-are a mild but sure
laxative. and their effect on the liver IS
almost instantaneous. They are the re-
suit of DR.. Edwards determination not
to treat liver and bowel complaints with
calomel. His efforts to Danish it brought
out these little olive-colored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the
good that calomel does, but have no bad
after effects. They don't injure the
teeth like strong liquids or calomel.
They take hold of the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the liver
at the expense of the teeth? Calomel
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
SO do strong liquids. 1t is best not to
take calomel, but to let DR. Edwards
Olive Tablets take its place.
Most headaches, "dullness' and that
lazy feeling come from constipation and
a disordered liver. Take Dr.. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel 'logRy' and

my back and kidneys that I couldn't
move in bed and when the bed-clothes
were changed. I had to be lifted out
into another bed. My kidneys were
weak and irregular in action and the
secretions unnatural. What misery I
endured: when I tried to move. sharp
pains darted all through my body and
drove me almost frantic. Doan's Kid

In the Junior Chamber of Commerce, which is a child of the Hammond

enterprise Of its young men, and the ready response indicates The rust VIM
be honored and the responsibility assumed in sincerity and enthusiasm.
The people of Hammond ire going to take The Junior Chamber of Com
nerce seriously because in it will be represented the homes Offices stores
factories, schools, churches and various other institutions of the city. In
it the young men of the city will have an organization surprising in oppor
tunity and design any club in ny municipality Of Indiana. They will pro
coed with due elaboration and act advisedly and their influence is certain
to be felt. Sponsored by the senior Chamber OF Commerce. to whom 4
is closely related, the Junior organization is n innovation of great posi-
bnnes.
Those who are eligible for membership-the young men between the
ages ofe eighteen and thrty-wil regret their neglect if they do not attend
the organization meeting at the Chamber 0. Commerce Thursday evening at
8 o'clock. when the proposed constitution and bylaws are to be submitted
for discussion and a vote.
1t is to be hoped that the Junior Chamber of Commerce will saw for
the city the capable and enterprising young mn who might leave it for other
towns. believing that it offered NJ inducements for them to remain. The
young men will have through the new body al opportunity to create these
inducements themselves. It is to be desired that the young men will find

pride Elm the home city and creating worthy things for the benefit o. future
generation as well as the present.
What the exact functions and powers Of the Junior Chamber of Com
merce will be the writer is not able to state definitely. But it is evidently
worth the time Of ne young men Of the city to attend the meeting Thursday
evening and find out.
