c scf.li, but on an equallj h!;li plane
of aitlstlc ondeavoi, it Is within tho
reach of ovciy iltj In the fnlon, ot
evei.v town, and even of some villages
wheio the development of the tiolley
svstem has made the liitiodtu tlon of
electilc power u matter uf comnion
place. "Paris, which witnessed sonic won
derful applications of electilc light at
the exposition last suminei though
none quite s.o effective as the Pan
American achievement has shown Its
usual taste In emplojlng something
besides llrewoiks for the amusement
of Its people at u time of icjohlng. A
cai iiro, on the llth of Jul, the na
tional fete day, the I.uxenibouirf Pal
ace and other public buildings tippled
Into oi ganged lunilnosltv, after the
fashion of tho Pan-Amoiican build
ings The Poulevaid Saint tierinaln,
to name only one of tho nunc elabor
ately illuminated thoioiighfaies, was
tiansfoimtd Into a falijland, being
niched all along its couiso with thou
sands of ud and white lanterns, deftly
Intoi twined with the intlonal flag.
The people danced, as they have long
danctil on the night ot tho llth of
Julj, to the music of binds stationed
oveijwheio in little pavilions decoiat
eil, like the stieets, with lights and
banneis. Not a snK0 liiociackcr was
exploded No sound but that of mcril
ment, socuie fiom all dlsastoi, foil
upon the e.u. All ovoi the city this
was tho case. The Chumps i:i.vstts
gleamed like a phantom place of u.
malice. Is it nei.exs.uj, then, wo ask,
tint we should lillthelj make pandi -inonlum
and call it ",i p,itilot(e festi

call it '(Ploluatlng our Independence',"
Would not even tho thlldien toicgo

It Is beginning to dawn upon the

hoon after tho chief aiiiiugcments
were supposed to be lomplotPt'lille de
clared Its Intention of remaining out
of the coiiRiess unless the dlilkultles
between that countiy and Pom, which
have been pending for some jeais
weie exempted fiom the aibltiatlon
discussions of the congtess and fiom
any agieement the congress might en
ter Into foi pcimanent aibltiatlon To
such exemption Peiu natuially too
seilous exception. Other South Amer
ican countries havo taken sides In the
dispute.
It became evident some time ago
tb?t. whichever way the United States
evTvernnient should use her casting
vote, the coneres3 will lose Its Pan-
s
American All-Amerlcan character.
The South Ameilcan founttles that
take the side of t'hlle will, In one event,
refue to paitlclpate In the congress
nnd Its many linpoi taut dlscussloni,
on the nthci hand, those that sjmpn
thlzo with Peru's claim that the pies
ent differences between hcisolf nnd
t'hlle should be Included In a peinia
uent nrbltiatlon auaiigcmeiit, will,
In the other event, send no delegates.
The latest dispatches stSite that Mex
ico has been Infonued that "the com
mittee has decided to exclude, piescnt
controversies from the arbitration dis
cussion." The congiess will not be
Pan-AineilcHn, however It may be
i called so. In consequence, Its deliber
ations and decisions In other matters
affecting both Noith and South Atuer
In will lack nitthoilty nnd weight
which is vciy unfoi tunato.
The joiing nnn of the diy will have
an rxeellont nigument to offer the

Piofessor Matteluccl, tho Italian

The Great Opportunity of Sum

YOU MAY CON.SIDIMt this the
wtong time of the year to talk
advertising nnd say ou cannot
sell goods dutlng the hot summer
months.
Why not?
"Vh everybody Is away on Bummer
vacations and has no money to spend
for anything but recreation these days."
There aie a few teasoiis why the
summer months are the best for adver
tising, and It Is latgely n matter of
custom the stopping of advertising
"until fall" M'hj', there ate just hs
many people lead tho newspapers In
the summer time as In the winter.
We might saj. Ineldentlallj", that In the
case of tho Tribune there nie ft good
mnny more this summer, as the Edu
cational Contest has added over bOO
new renders thus far.
Summer Advortisomonts Ar Head.
Anil besides this papers Hie read
moi e In the summer time than they
nin In tho winter ns people have
more Idle moments on their hnnds Did
j ou ever think of this? In the winter
seiifron theie Is the theatre, the part",
calls nnd callers, and nenilv eveiy day
and evening Is occupied In the sum
inei, sitting on the poioh or In the
hammock, the now spapet Is lead and re
load until not onlj the news but the
advertisements nro thoioughly familial
Of couiso there aie lots and lots of
people out of town, some at a distance,
but or- many not furthei away than
Daltou or Cilenbuin And they all have
their Tilbuno fm warded and read It
like n letter fiom home. The wives nnd
daughtein watch the ndveitlslng nnd
when thej- discover something that
appeals to them, which Is ncaily eveiy
daj, the husband, who tomes to the
city legulaily, is lequested to stop
Inat So-and-so's and bring home some
thing oi other that he Is adveitlslng
In The Tilbuno. And occasionally the
wife and daughter must make a tilp
to Huanton to take advantage of some
baiguln offered.
You have had thci-e oxpcilcnces,
haven't jou.' So has eveiy othei man.
Tho "Golden Opportunity."
Then, too, there nie thove who aie
too far away to pet Into Scianton so
easily. They may bo out of town lot
a (ouplo of weeks oi loi a month or
two Hut The Tilbuno Is leceived and
lead dallj. This Is tho "golden oppoi
tunltj" for tho lncKhant to sow his
seed so that It will bear liult in the
fall The busy housekeepei will have
too much to attend to when she returns
to the city to give the newnpapeis
much attention then. Hut Just now
time hangs heavily on hci hands and
the moi chant's announcement of what
he has to olfei, lepeated eveij' da- for
a month or so, will be so fixed In mind
that when the need ailses theie will
be no question as to wheio she will
go foi Its satlslactlon.
Don't stop newspapei advcrtlf-lng in
the summer oi jou will inNs the gieat
cst oppoitunity of the jcai'
Nowspn.pe.rs nnd Billboards.
Did It evci oicui to jou how uttcily

To Wage Earners
and Others of
Moderate Income
Do not spend your money foolishly
because you have so little of It, but
save what you can fiom month to
month and Invest It in something that
will multiply many fold The mil
lionaires of this section were laboring
m-n a generation ago and they pur
sued this course while most of their
comrades blew It nil In. The pru
rient ones saw thnt fuel was a good
thing, that tho world had to have
it, nnd they bought coal land, a little
nt a time ns they could spare It, and
It has made them rich, nnd their fami
lies live and will live In the greatest
comfort, while the descendants ot
their Imprudent comrades nro labor
ing ns their fatheis did for davi
wnges.
Keep this object lesson In mind
Tho opportunities of that eat Her time
were In coal, today greater oppoitunl
tles exist In oil, which Is fuel in a.
more concrete form and is tapldly
supplanting coal, because It Is easier
nnd (henper fo mine and handle, an
Is, besides being n more economic
fuel for all Hrge consumers, profit
able for a bundled other uses. The
oil of California Is furnishing that
state with cheap fuel, for the lack of
which her piogtcss has 1 c en woefully
letaided. The ontlie Pacific to ist
will consume oil as a fuel, so that
the demand upon the oil fields of Cali
fornia Is unlimited California oil
loflnors will hold tho minkets of the
far Uast nnd of the west coast of
South Ameilca. It Is plain to be seen
that tho oil ileitis of California will
be the source of Incalculable wcilth,
far bej'ond what the coil mines of
Pennsylvania havo been In the past.
All thoughtful man can see that the
thing to do now to make money Is
to buy tho shares of conservative, ie
putably managed oil companies hav.
Ing large holdings of undoubted oil
lands secured nt low prices, nnd only
requiting development to become the
source of enormous revenues for
shoreholdor"
The PACIPIC COAST AND TEXAS

portant oil fields managers of ability

EDUCATIONAL CONTEST)
BBglWI IIHWHI
This action is taken for the purpose of protecting legitimate
contestants and preventing the possibility of any speculator from
entering the last day or two and purchasing a $1,000 scholarship
by presenting the names of his friends as new subscribers and
paying for them himself. While nothing of this sort was attempted
last year, the close of the contest demonstrated that it would have
taken much less than $1,000 to have purchased the first special
reward, as the winning contestant had only secured for The
Tribune less than oo in new subscriptions. The Tribune desires
to protect tne contestants that are working so nobly for it and will
use its best endeavor to have every feature of the contest perlectlv
fair, and it wishes it distinctly understood that the rewards of
fered are in no sense for sale, but will positively go to the con
testants who secure tho largest number of points, which will be
credited only for new and legitimate subscribers.
The Special Rewards:
Scholarship in Lafayette College $1,000
Scholarship in Swarthmore College 1,000
Scholarship in Stroudsburg Normal School 675
Three Scholarships in Scranton Business
