1 Business Will Examine Trade
Opportunity Through Com
mercial Museum
TO USE FOREIGN BUREAU
Hundreds of manufacturers from all eec
'. ttoit of tha United Btatea, who hava an eye
to world-trade, will attend tho Mb Admen'a
convention In thlt cltr next month. Many of
theeo manufacturer see In the Philadelphia
convention a golden oportuntty for learn
Ins how to fain a secure foothold In foreign
markets.
For several years tha foreign trado
toureAU of the Philadelphia Commercial
Museum has served as an expert department
to manufacturers trorn Maine to Texas, and
from Florida to Washington. Since tho he
ginning1 of tha European -war the bureau
has tripled Its activities In the Interests
of -fostering tho foreign trado of tho United
States. ,
In explaining the workings of tho tfurcau
In the Interest of foreign trade, on official
cf tha bureau said today:
Tor Instanca, a manufacturer of shoes
in a. -Massachusetts town has deve'oped his
plant to the point where Its capacity has
outrun normal domestic demands, or has
decided to broaden his sales territory with
a view to stabilizing his sales from year
'to year. Ho has read much about Latin
America and It occurs to him that It would
to tho section In which to make a begin.
nln&. Pfcklng out tho country In Latin
America where tho mode of dress ap
proaches closely tha standard at home, he
concentrates attention for the time being
en Argentina. In duo course of time a
letter Is sent to the foreign trade bureau
asking what the market Is for shoes In
-Argentina, and If ho can sell his product
there. Upon receipt of the Imjutry ono of
the trained staff of tho foreign bureau ob
tains the exact figures of the boot and
ho Importation. A reply Is sent to the
manufacturer, advising that last year there
was Imported In Argentina so many thous
and pairs of shoes by British, American,
French nnd German manufacturers, giving
the number of pair and value of tho Im
portation from each.
"Can the inquirer sell his particular shoo
In that market: Frankly, tho foreign
trado bureau cannot tell offhand. It can
ay, however, that other American makers
of similar shoes ore, or are not, selling their
wares there, with tho presumption that he
can or cannot do the same.
COMPLETE COMMERCIAL LIBRARY.
"At this point mention should be mado of
the library of the Philadelphia Commercial
Museum. This library Is probably the most
complete strictly commercial library In
the world. On Its shelves are the omclal
publications of every Government that 1s
aues commercial and financial documents;
and supplementing these are books and
periodicals of commerce, transportation,
banking and travel, Issued by'semlpubllc
organizations and private publishers. This
library Is Invaluable to members of the
staff of the foreign trade bureau and to
manufacturers and business men generally.
iGolng back to tha Massachusetts shoe
manufacturer, we will assume that he de
cides to give the Argentine market a trial.
He decides to Inaugurate his campaign by
malting known his firm and products to
tho retail trade. He asks for a list of re
tail shoe dealers In the larger cities of Ar
gentina. The member of the staff to whom
this letter Is turned over for attention ob
tains lists, checks them up with data In
tho bureau's private flics, has the lists
copied and sent to the manufacturer. It
may be noted that the collection of dlrec-
ly'tories from which the lists are made up, In
an upnanu 01 dvv volumes, is ono 01 me
most Important In the United States, and Is
kept up to date, the various foreign pub
lishers having standing orders to supply
new editions as, soon as Issued.
"Or It mar be that the manufacturer be
lieves Is better policy first to get in touch
with the Importing and wholesale houses.
In that case the member of the staff who
has the Inquiry In charge goes to the pri
vate commercial records of the bureau and
prepares a Jlat of such firms. These records
contain data on prominent merchants in all
parts of the world ; not merely their names
and addresses, but the lines they handle,
their foreign connections, their references
and statements of their financial standing
and moral lotigrity.
TVltn the thought of letter writing comes
the question of language. Again the facili
ties of the foreign trade bureau are at the
sen-Ice of the manufacturer. The bureau
malrfnlns a well-equipped translation de
partment, able to handle any commercial
language, the employes of which are not
mere linguists, but men who know the lan
guage and who know commerce, Its usages
and terms."

All dears' talis should be short In warm
Weather At least Felix Fisher think o.
It worries hlrh to se a patient canlno tot
ins; an elongated tall around when the ther
mometer Is near Uncomfortablo figures. Be
ina; a friend of the animals generally.
Falls' decided, that he wouldn't let them
suffer.
Man, contends Felix, gets his hair cut
short In the summer time so that he will be
cool and airy. The dog has to fuss around
with a long appendage which gets caught
In gates. Under wheels of cars and causes
him no end of trouble. These things were
running through the mind of Kefix when
he saw a military looking youth strolling
along with a little spaniel. The dog's tall
was at least three Inches too long, In the
opinion of Fells. He grabbed It, and while

the animal was growling, bit off three
Inches. But before he could make his es
cape the animal took at least a square foot
from Felix's trousers. The boy was In
dignant, but on seeing that Felix looked
strong and combative did not offer anything
more violent than denunciation.
Felix declared that he could blto an ear
oft Just as well as a tall, when a cop ap
peared and hauled him before Magistrate
Stevenson.
"Years ago." said Felix, "I found that
dogs were healthier when they had short
tails. Long tails drag on the ground and
disturb the dust A short tall Is the beat
thing, no matter what tho dog Is."
Tho Magistrate reminded the prisoner
that it was always welt to consult the
owner before depriving a dog of this necea
sary furniture.
"I'll explain, but It will take a lonr
time." said Felix.
"You can prepare your case In jail dur
ing the next fhe days," said the Judge.

If the theatre-going publlo ot America has
the slightest Instinct of self-preservation In
its present very much diluted blood, It wilt
crowd Miss Orace (leorge with audiences
nnd plaudits. For she has done more than
give ua a delightful performance of
America's wittiest comedy, "The New York
Idea." She has Just finished giving Broad
way, and Incidentally the Road, an exhibi
tion of the practicability of the repertory
system as a llfe-saer to plays, public and
managers
Doubtless ery few of tho many who had
a good time at the Adelphl last night know
or appreciated Miss George's work In pre
senting flvo standard comedies this season,
but tholr enjoyment was Just as keen for all
that.
Memories and comparisons were In order.
Memories of 'The New York Iiloa," when
Mrs Flke first nctcd It n decade ago, and
of the English comedy, "A Pair of Silk
Stockings," which Just preceded It ot tho
Adelphl Comparisons of the nctlng of 10
jenrs ago and today, and of the play of 10
days ago and now.
As for memories, Mr. Mitchell's play
for all tho ephemerlllty of divorce Is still
fresh with live people nnd live lines. The
Judge, who Is prepared to "cross-question the
Creator" I Cates-Darby, with his "samo old
usual Question Will you have me If. she
don't?"; Vlda, "no head, no heart, all lan
guor and Idose"; Mrs. Karslake, the sport
ing woman who draws back at the last from
"consecutive polyandry" ; the Reverend
Matthew, whoso clerical head easily mas
ters tho intricacy of "She divorced Mm In
compatibility Rhode Island Ho divorced
her -dosertlon N'ovada" what a delicious
crew! Uach chock full of Mr Mitchell's
wit, and yet each Just a little bit his own
sotf for alt that. The puxzle Is, are char
acters or playwright the moro delightful?
The memories of "A Pair of Silk Stock
ings" are pleasant, because for once they
show an American playwright excelling an
Englishman at polite comedy. Cyril Har
court put some delightful lines Into his play,
but thoy are not superior In quality or
quantity to Mr. Mitchell's, and Mr. Mitch
ell's play has tho supremo virtue of In
genious dramatic construction which pro
duces a real plot and weds the clever lines
to It.
As for nctlng, comparisons, like most
odious things, nro cttrcmcly useful nnd In
teresting to those who aren't their victims.
They show plainly enough that Bruce Mc
Rae Is a far more amusing comedian than
Mr. John Mason, who first played the sport
ing husband ; that Ernest Lawford excels
even tho admirable Georgo Arllss, because
Cates-Darby is the sporting Englishman at
bottom, not the polished peer that tho older
actor presented ; that Mary Nash is per
sonally so anything but languid that her
impersonation seems nothing but a mass of
actress-affectations besldo Miss Lee's; and
finally, that though Mrs. Flsko Is the finest
and almost the only naturalistic corqedl
enne ot America, she Is nlso the leaBt heard
from, while Miss Oeorge's charm continues
to blossom and finds, even hunts up, half
a dozen plays In a single year to sun It
self In.
Yes, you miss the downright humorous
reality of Mrs. Flskc, charming as . MUs
George always Is. But you must admit the
admirable handling that the newer star
gave the scene of the orange blossoms and
alt of the not too easy last act. And you
must never forget that, though Mrs. Flsko
was once the pioneer of Ibsen, Miss Georgo
is now the actress-manager who has shown
the American theatre a way out of the
wilderness of Broadway and the Road.

By tho Photoplay Editor
Of the three new feature films that came
to the downtown picture houses yesterday,
one, "Salnta arid ninners" at the Stanley,
presented a new star who Is likely to queen
It over the movies for aome time. She Is
Peggy Hylandt and as her English beauty
testifies, she has long been a favorite In the
"cinemas" or tho British Isle. Her per
formance ot the heroine In the film version
of Henry Arthur Jones' play was charming
ana enecuve.
The film Itself was hardly that It pro
gressed steadily along Its not very exoltlng
story. But that story was a stage stiry,
with little or no film values of the sort that
the screen can and should develop t rem en
dousty. It told the tale of the lover who
tricked the minister's daughter Into a com
promising position and had to fight another
admirer as a result That over, It showed
tho efforts of a money-grabber to force
the minister to aid his dirty plans or be
forced from his pulpit. It ended up hap
pily with the adventitious arrUat of bank
ruptcy for the money-grabber and a rich
mine for the trusty admirer. The movies
deserve somethlngtbcttcr.
At any rate, they got a good production:
some fascinating rlvors and plno woods of
Florida which were quite ns un-English os
the Western Union telegram blanks em
ployed. Tho aecond half of the week tho Stanley
will present Fannie Ward, In "A Gutter
Magdalene."
The mark of the Smalleya Is over nil tho
Bluebird photoplay, "The Eye of God,"
which came to the Regent yesterday. Its
Btory of a murderer haunted by the fear of
God Is told with every screen facility for
holding suspense and stirring the Imagina
tion It Indulges In the many clever double
printings, Including n representation of the
Eye of God, which fastens a beam of light
upon Tyrone Power with ghastly effective
ness, nnd It rejoices In the novelty of hand
written "leaders" that come as part of tho
confession written In prison by tho mur
derer whom we first encounter as tho con
victed criminal that the film finally makes
him. The result Is a fascinating effect of
personal narrative. Incidentally, there are
very few of these "leaders" and almost
none of the old kind.
Tyrone Power does good work.
The now film at the Arcndla, on the other
hand, Is chock full of leaders. 'The Market
of Vain Desire" is almost nothing else. It
Is woll actod especially by that roal addi
tion to tno screen, H. B. Warnor It Is
effectively staged, and tho leaders aro as
decorative as In all Mr. Ince's photoplays.
But Its story of a prcachor who saves a
society girl from a loveless marriage with
a foreign noblemnn by bringing a prostitute
Into his pulpit as an object lesson for his
sermon is naturnlly dependent almost alto
gether on reproducing this sermon In. tho
printed word. d
The InBt half of tho week the Arcadia will
show another Triangle production, "Going
Straight," with Norma Talmadge
Yesterday the Palace showed "Pasqualo,"
a Faramount-Morosco film, already re
viewed favorably from Its production at the
Stanley. The last half of the week will
come "Sweet Kitty Beltairs," . with Mae
Murray.
The Victoria got together so admirable
a combination yesterday that it will con
tinue It throughout tho whole week. It Is
W. S. Hart in the Triangle play, 'The
Primal Lure," and Charlie Chaplin In "Po
lice." All week tho Belmont Bhows "Police,"
with Charlie Chaplin. In addition on Mon
day and Tuesday there la 'The Heart of
Paula," with Lconore Ulrlch; on Wednes
day and Thursday, 'The Bargain," with "Wi
S. Hart, and on Friday and Saturday, 'Tho
Race," with Victor Moore and Anita King.

Mr. and Mrs. Pubtl6 are ver careful of
themselves, whether they go to PottsTille or
vaudeville. In either place, they want com
fort as well as good service. In fact.
'rnmtnri'' in as much a headline attraction
as the star act Itself In this kind of rather
grumpy weather.
In this connection Keith's donned Its sum
mer attire, last night, and In addition to
supplying Iced air unfolded a good show
full of laughs and music These are always
good Ingredients for hot weather harmony,
laughter kills tha grouch microbes and
good mutlo Is antidote for gloom.
And speaking of music, there was Caro
lina White, she of operatlo fame, Bhe re
vived memories of her triumphs In the Und
of opera, and after rendering numerous
selections from the masters, past and pres
ent, offered "Mother Machree" and "Mem
ories" as a cooling citron to her repertoire.
The prima donna was in excellent volco
and If we knew all the fancy commendatory
phrases which came so handily to expert
musical critics, they would be crowded Into
this space. In lieu of that, It can only bo
said that Mlaa Whlto was a most emphatto
hit and the voto waB unanimous.
Thero were other good things on tho bill
aplenty. For Instance, Charles E. nvans,
of Evans and Hoey fame (you should re
member them both If you'ro a real Phlla-'
delphlnn), In "Tho Forgotten Combination."
Laughter and surprise chased each othor
throughout to n happy climax. It received a
warm reception. Mr. Hoey wna creditably
asslstod by Helena Phillips nnd Edward
Forhn.
Herbert Clifton proved that moro man
can Bhow woman how to wear her own
clothes In nddltlon to exhibiting some
very dainty npparel In most diaphanous
fashion, ho sang a numbor of Bongs In
truly prima donna style.
Harry Fern, who Is ono ot us, nnd
Charilo Moncll, ono of the very best char
acter nctors ever neon In theso pnrts, camo
back again, with "Veterans." ns a Decora
tion Day attraction. This act, which was
reviewed before, went ns well as ever.
Incidentally, Mr. Fern's Joke about tho
alarm clock has remained untouched by
nilier nrta ever since ho ha)i been away,
Allen nnd Howard clinched bunches of
laughs In "A Real Pal." Dame Claudius
and Mlllan Scarlet, In their songs of long
ago, aroused tho audlenco to a high pitch
of patriotic enthusiasm, which gives tha
