Present-day commerce, lacking the glamour of the days when swift clipper ships were driven by their daring Yankee skippers across the seven seas to wrest supremacy from the slower vessels of other nations, has found a new fleld for American ingenuity and enterprise. Ships of steel, transatlantic grey- hounds, wireless and airplanes, have not yet taken all the romance from the commerce of today, as stories of American trade conquests to the Com- merce Department amply bear out. The recent feat of an American aviator who, with his legs in plaster casts, surmounted the highest peaks of the Andes mountains, has resulted in securing a large contract by the American airplane manufacturer who employed the services of this pilot. A consular dispatch from Chile, re- ferring to purchases of American and British planes made by the Chilean government, says: ““All the sales made Glasses _Fitt McCormick Medical College Eyes Examined Graduate Dr. CLAUDE S.

LARNER, President ALFRED H. LAWSO T. CARROLL GRANT, Real Estate Officer Assistant Real Estate Officer ANYWHERE TO ANYWHERE—-BY TELEPHONE AVE you noticed that the long distance operator has been completing many of your out-of-town calls while you held the line? We can give you this almost as fast as local service when you know the number of the distant telephone. It makes no difference whether you call “anyone” or a particulat person at an out-of-town telephone; in either case you’'ll get an extra-rapid service if you can give the number. Suppose you don’t know the number— We'll complete the connection and tell you the number at the time. Butto save your time, we suggest that you make a list of the names and addresses of all the persons or firms whom you are apt to call. Mail it to our Business Office and we will promptly supply you with their numbers. A Word of Explanation—There are two kinds of long distance calls: Station-to-station and Parson-to-person. On a station-to-station call we connect youwith the out-of-town number just as wedoona local call. On a person-to-person call we connect youwith the particular person desired at the distant telephone; these calls take about 25 per cent higher rate. E
