Exposition"
The show and exposition, az plan
ned by The Washington Times, Will
not be merely a local affair. The
exposition will be broadcast through.
out nearby States, and, in fact,
the entire South, with the idea Of
attracting buyers and shoppers who
formerly have gone to Baltimore
and other cities.
Run On Cost Basis.
The exposition is a non.profit-
making venture, space In the new
auditorium show being sold for a
very nominal sum, much less than
ever quoted for a similar exposition
in halls far less desirable.
AS one Of the attractions, lectur.
ers trained by the Chicago Institute
OF Art, evolving an outlay of more
than $500, will be brought to this
city. An elaborate musical program
Is also being planned, with imported
ana local talent, the new auditorium
lending itself for such q program
like no other hall in Washington.
Many novel attractions are also
planned for the food show, which
viii be announced later.

garded this and told the Reverend
Mr.. johnson to be sure and have
