HARRISBTTRtt STAR-INDEPENDENT, WEDNESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 17, 1915 BUSINESS MEN BEGIN BIC TOUR CMtlnard Prom First Pit* in Northumberland, Danville, Bloolns burg and Berwick, the party going from Berwick to Wilkes-Barre for the night. The headquarters of the Har risburg party will be the Sterling ho tel, where dinner will be served this evening. Advantages of the Trip This second annual trade extension tour of the Chamber of Commerce be gan with all those participating having full understanding of exactly what? it means to the individual business man and to the city in general, bast year's trip, which included York and Lebanon and the important towns along the rail roads between those places, proved of lasting benefit, actual returns in cash turning up as a direct result, during the interval of the year. This trip, as last year's, is crowded with snrall' stops that do not permit visits to all of the retailers who handle Harrisbun,j goods, but most of the busi ness men of these towns are members of organizations which have under taken the entertainment of the Harris burg tourists. Old business acquaint ances are being renewed, new ones formed even in the brief time allotted. This pilgrimage is for the purpose of putting Harrisburg-made products on the market and compelling purchasers in a wide district, which can readily be reached by daily freight out of Har risburg, to recognize in Harrisburg a buying center of no mean proportions. These trips are destined to become as much an institution in the Harrisburg Chamber of Commerce as the bureau which makes solicitors explain their projects to the Chamber before getting funds from its members. The increased freight facilities grant ed by the Pennsylvania railroad from Harrisburg to Sunbury, make the visit 1 to the latter city especially important. The Capital City merchants have tho I chance to send perishable freight with j the assurance that it will be off the car by 10 o'clock the following morn ing. The trip to Sun bury was therefore I an imjMirtant one in the wake of that j announcement by the Pennsv. The officers of the Chamber worked j hard to get as large a number as pos- I sible of business men to take the trip, | and the list shows representatives of | large Harrisburg wholesalers and job bers, whose selling territory is bound j to be increased as a result of the tour.
