delphia. Facilities here, also, are bet {.
ter than in Newport News or Ports
mouth; and Norfolk, in spite Of its
recent great development, has nothing
on Philadelphia in either freight hand :.
ling facilities or in piers.
Stresses PhiIadelphia's Advantages
Il am at loss to know why Mr..
Ford should be considering any of those
ports. 50 far as know there are no
shipments from any Of those Southern
PORTS to South America except coal.
New Orleans Is the only Southern city
] am aware of which has regular ship.
ments to South America.
1T seems to me Philadelphia's busi =
ness organizations should make de :
termincd effort to get this proposed
line for this port. In the past Philadel-
phia and Pennsylvania shippers have not
shown sufficient practical interest in the
development of their home port. Some
who have been active in the past in
boosting the port have done their ship
ring elsewhere.
1T must be remembered, Of course,
that it is natural for shippers to send
their goods to ports whence they can
get regular shipments, instead Of TAX
ing a chance on delay by shipping them
to Philadelphia. / remember an in
stance which illustrates this. A manu-
tacturer up the State sent two carloads
of steel rails to Philadelphia to be
shipped on a vessel which touched here
with a cargo from Constantinople. II
developed that this was the only ship
ment for Constantinople from Philadcl-
phia, and, naturally, the ship did not
sail. After paying his transportation
costs to Philadelphia and losing time
while waiting for the ship, the manu-.
facturer was compelled to 90 to the
ndded expense of sending his rails to
New York to be shipped.
Wants Regular Sailings
"Sailings are maintained regularly
from New York, whether there are car
goes or not. This is the only basis on
which trade can be attracted It would
be entirely possible, however, for Phila-
delphia and Pennsylvania manufactur-
ers TO get together and by resolving to
ship all their goods through this port
create n sufficient volume OF business to
make it worth while to maintain reg
ular sailings.

To perform this one, the performer
must previously prepare the penny. a
very small nick is made in the edge oil
the tails side. When the coin Is spun,
It settles with slow buzz. IL the
sound stops sharply, it is due TO the
little nick, and the performer knows
that the tail lies beneath hence he
calls out head" If the sound is
prolonged he knows the tail is upper

The trick may be repeated as often
as desired and may be done with a
