Two ,llon cups only six months old, but emitting laughable, treble roars in imitation of their savage parents, are among the attractions of the arena.

This assures the patronu a continual circulation of clean fresh alr/ which makes Fox's a desirable rendezvous for these seeking amuse- ment, and recreation. A glance over the list of attractions offered to day and tomorrow will con- vince even the most skeptic as to the truth of the above statement.

This is the first time in the history of the nation that the excess exports over imports have gone over the bil- lion dollar mark. Heretofore, if the trade 'balances passed over the half billion dollar mark the country con- gratulated itself. ‘While the exports, were mounting to Pecord figures on account of the war, the imports fell off. The total imports for the 1915 fiscal year ag- gregated $1,674,220,740, a decrease of $219,700,000 from last year's and a decrease of $138,800,000 from that of 1913.
