Ber. J. A. B. Fry, who was recent
ly a viitor to Concord from Berkeley,
CsL, gives a most interesting account
of the spproaehing Panama-Pacifle
International Exposition. Mr. Fry
gives tea examples of "how the ex
position is different ',' and other inter
esting information on the subject:
. 1. It is the first exposition which
celebrates a . really international
event which does not alone effect one
nation, but revolutionises the geogra
phy of the world, the trade routes of
sll nations and transfers the center
of history from the Atlantic to the
Pacific, bene this l the firsh genu
ine International Exposition. "
"Z.lt 1s the first one to be held on
the shore where the exhibits of all
lands tail be unloaded from the home
ships atihe doors' of the palaces and
installed by cars that ran right from
tpe vessels into the buildings.
3. It is not a monument to the dead
but ' celebrates a living achievement
of the age we live in, tba wedding of
seas and the uniting of nations in
the Panama Canal. - -'""" ' -;
i. It will be an exhibition of pro
cesses not products. Every machine
will be in motion . performing its
task; boys and girls of all parts of
the world will illustrate education
and not archives of copy books. -
5. 'It will not be a museum but a
university, a laboratory of contempor
ary civilization for only the products
in machinery, industry of art or the

awards. The City of Dreams will

A 'Conversation. Thai- Kerults tn a
QuasUom That Has Merit And Is
Worth While.
Aa animated eonrersation took
place in a corner drng atore yester
day afternoon. . The principals were
crossing swords in a vigorous fash
ion that attracted attention. Dropping
in to see what the subject was here
is what was found: '
Two well known young men. both
newlyweds, were backed against the
cigsr counter arguing in the manner
that would make the average politi
cal (alkfest a tame' affair as to which
had the finest baby. Weight, beighth,
vocabulary and everything down to
baby ship's cooing prophecies were
talked Over, disputed and discussed.
A listener wss appealed to to de
cide the matter. Kay, nay, said he.
The position was too delicate. It
called for a diplomat a diplomat of
calibre to settle the Mexican question
might do bat .certainly one of no
smaller" ealibre need apply, The lis
tener entertained a Jiiph regard for
both young men. ' He did not desire
to arouse the eternal enmity of either
of the proud, young fathers or ran
the risk of enraging jn a personal
(encounter. - So he susirested bavins a
baby show to decide tbe matter.
v"Why not!" said the young men.
."IH enter mine," said one. ,
"So will I," said the other. "
So why not a baby show f Concord
baa the most wonderful youngest in
tbe land. Why not arrange a show T
It would be worth while,
