Woolworth Company: st feel that
the retail business of this country
can look forward to continued in
creased business for some time to
come, and unless there is some up
setting influence in the early sum-
mer of 1923 on account of politics, !
look for very much better business
in 1928 than we hav enjoyed in 1927
and the year 1927 has been a big
improvement over 1926"
Martin j. insult. president Middle
West Utilities Company: THE cleo
trio industry will inevitably expand
in 1928, irrespective of the general
course of business. This is due in
part to the fact that the industry is
at point of development far from
saturation. and in part to the down.
ward trend of electric light and
power rates-a trend that is having
the effect of constantly increasing
electric energy consumption"

r. H. Ashton, president Amer

look for freight traffic in the coming
year cannot be forecast with any
degree of certainty at the present
time. There are many encouraging
factors in the situation, however,
some of which may be felt in the

QUAKE DEATH TOLL
BELIEVED 100000
Check of Victims Difficult in
Disaster Occurring in

PEKING. August IAN unofficial.

Province Of Kansu, reaching the
China International Famine Relief
Commission in Pe|ing today. led off,
cials Of that orgaf fZation to the opin-
lon that the death toll in the earth
auake Of May q may have reached
400 900
At the present time there is no
communication between the Peklng
government and the Kansu provincial
regime. as the latter is dominated by
Zen. Feng Yu-Hsiang, allied with the
Nationalist. Moreover. the stricken
area is far from Lianchow, the pro-
cincial capital. and it is unlikely that
reliable reports have reached even
tianchow, as Chinese local authorities

II is believed the quake was of I'M
usual severity, but that the damage
was confined to the northern kansu
region. in the vicinity Of Lianchow
There Is no means of making an au-
thentic check. however. since the COM
missions Kansu committee. mostly
missionaries, has dispersed because of
foreign evacuation of the province
There are no other agencies capable

Of the death roll, recall that there

when the deaths were estimated at
10000. The majority of the inhab-
ttants Of the region live in cavelike
dwellings, dug out of the soft loess
hills.
Reports reached Shanghai late in
June that a severe earth shock on

Eansu Province. near the Monaghan
border. The first detailed information
rame in a letter received in Shanghai
from Mgr Buddenbrock, vicar apos-
toline of the Steyl Mission, at LANG
ehow. several days ago. He said that
Missionaries estimates placed the casu.
alties as high as 100000, and that the
rites Of Sisiang, Liangchow and

CENTENARY EXHIBITION
is PICTURED IN POSTERS
Baltimore and Ohio Pageant Be-
ing Well Advertised.

The Baltimore and Ohio Centenary
Exhibition and Pageant, to be held in
Baltimore, September oath to October
9Th, has provided interest and inspi-
ration in poster designing for an
nouncing the event. Four posters have
been selected and will be displayed
quite generally in the near future.
One of these posters, "The Phantom
Engine" pictures an early type of To-
connective putting along in it's antique
way, manned by an engineer and a
fireman in red shirts. Above their
heads, faint but distinct against a
light background, is the phantom en-
gine, a dream of far-seeing prophecy
come true; ponderous yet graceful,
with smoke streaming back and CIV
ing sense of speed, beauty and of
power. The color scheme is harmon
ious and bright. This poster was de-
signed by H. D. Stitt, of Baltimore.
A second poster shows in three Sec
tions, one above the other, the parade
on July the Fourth, 1928, in the City
of Baltimore, in honor of the laying
of the First Stone" of the railroad.
Drawing from history for material,
the artist has reproduced colorful
picture in the costumes and atmos-
phere of the festive occasion of that
early period, with it's carriages, horse
drawn coaches, floats, leading citizens,
Maryland militia and clipper ship
resting at anchor in the background.
This was designed by Edward A. Will
son, of New York.
Another poster is Installation of
the 100 years that span the develop
ment of the railroad, placing the tiny
"Tom Thumb" first American-built
locomotive of 1829-30, alongside the
"Lord Baltimore" the largest passen-
ger engine built at Mount Clare shops,
Baltimore, in 1925. In back of the
former stand houses typical of Balti-
more Town in early days, while rising
above the big 'Lord Baltimore" are
buildings and towering skyscrapers of
the present age. This is the work of
L. Vassar Elan, of New York.
The fourth poster announces the
Centenary Exhibition in the old-fash-
inoed wording and lettering that pre-
vailed in the early part of the last
century. At the top of this poster is
the powerful locomotive, "Lord Balti-
MORE" and little "Tom Thumb" at the
bottom. This was designed by George
lillian, of New York.
