So also with the hotels. The Raleigh had 87 guests on the Fourth of July; the Willard was less than half its present size; the Washington, Mayflower, Wardman Park, Harring: ton, Congress Hall, Continental and the Capitol Park had no place on the map. | In the case of the banks, they had | $33,000,000 in deposits against the} $229,000,000 last vear.

The major number of theso will or go through Washington. Lvery kind of business will feel a tre- mendous stimulus in those usually dull months when business is in its need of new customers, clients and patrons. Studying the business significance of the park to Washington, I am per- suaded, in the light of my knowledge of urban growth in other cities, my observation of the development of the vational Capital and my acquaint- ance with what the park-bound tourist rado, that I err on the side of con- servation in the following itemization — Notified of Pension. | Dr. George T.

Marjorie Davis of the col- Jege faculty added to her present pop- ularity with her playing of Mendels- sohn’s “Rondo Capricelo.”” Additional piano groups were given by Nettie Sadler and Sophie Snyder. Young Jullus Altman, with a pre- coclousness for violin playing, int ested his hearers in the Huber Minor Concerto.” Virginia Cureton and IZvelyn Scott were both splendidly prepared and interpretatively inter- esting in their violin numbers. Accompaniments other than those furnished by the orchestra were given by the fine young pianists Evelyn Paige, Burrus Willlams and Sylvia Altman. It is evident from the enthuslasm shown at these concerts and by the high standard maintained in them that the Washington College of Music is participating in that impetus to- ward larger musical development which Washington residents are glad 10 note. ot Anchorage Election Warm. | The policy of seeing the voters per- | ept candldates on the jump in laska, in the last lap of a cipal election.

Tt means to the gas and service sta- tions the sale of milllons of gallons of gas and hundreds of thousands of quarts of ofl, the garaging of tons of thousands of cars and the fifding of as many more hours of new work for their mechanics.

It means that we will have, instead of a World War to stimulate our city’s growth, a peaceful invasion of new blood to promote its expansion. Tt means we can, in the next quarter of a century, repeat the growth that we have, as a city, en- Soved in the 25 vears behind us. 'And that means a million people in Wash. ington; two billlon dollars of added wealth; more than half a billlon dollars of added bank deposits, It means that the merchants will have to enlarge as they have enlarged since 1900. It means 10,000 opportunities for our sons and daughters to build up businesses of their own to meet the needs of that growth. It means that every line of business listed in the Washington trade direc- tory will benefit financlally at every turn. Big Benefit to Virginia. Tt means an era of unparalleled prosperity for that great area which is included in the Shenandoah Valley and Pledmont Virginia, which lie in the trade territory of Washington.

It will include some of the finest mature moun‘ain scerery in the world, abounding in cliffs that test the skill of the hard- fest mountain climber, in trails that challenge the endurance of the most vigorous hiker, trout streams that lure the disciple of Izaak Walton, and mountain meadows that will make the millions of children who go there forget brick walls, hard streets, and honking_automobiles. The Virginia highway system, now approaching completion, gives three hard roads to the top of the Biue Ridge and will open up the wealth of Virginia’s scenery and shrines with circular tours for every limit of time and whim of fancy.

If You Want a Packard Six This Spring—Order It Now . Last year thousands who wanted to buy Packard cars could not get them and had to be satisfied with something less desirable or keep their old cars. Sedan, for example, delivered at your door with More than twice as many Packard Six cars were sold in 1925 as in 1924. Had Packard been able to provide cars for all who wanted them this record would have been even greater. This year the 25,000 fortunate owners who se- cured cars last year are sending their friends to Packard. And though well prepared now, it is no doubt but a question of weeks before our built-up stocks will vanish. "Those who act at once may have an immediate or early delivery of any model Packard Six. Those who wait may be disappointed like the thousands of last year. Quality cannot be built hurriedly, and with Packard, quality comes before quantity. You may have a Packard Six, a five-passenger all necessary accessories and with freight and tax paid for $2,782. 10. If you prefer to buy on the payment plan, you may pay $900 on delivery and $172.35 monthly. May we examine your present car? If it has a market value we will buy it and apply its price on the down payment on the new car. If we may have your car now, or soon, we can sell it in the best market of the year, which, of course, will be to your advantage Then your car buying problems will be over for vears to come. The proof? The majority of last year’s buyers told us they intended to keep their new Packards more than twice as long as the cars they traded in. Packard-Washington Motor Car Co. 0.
