The project is sponsored by the New York Tribune and the paper paid all the raflroad eXpenses. Twenty-seven children were “order- ed,” but there were only 26, so cne woman went home disappointed. The children were of all nationalities and creeds and were from New York chil- dren’s homes or from poor families. A woman from the Presentation Day nursery of New York city acted as escort. Just what this vacation means to the children may be realized from the answer one of them gave when asked if he had ever seen a cow. “Yes, 1 was in Bronx park once.” The following women have offercd to take the children into their homes: Mrs. A, D. Carpenter 2, Mrs, E. B. Hanna 2, Mrs. Robert F'enton 2, Mrs. E. G. Bentley 2, Mrs. W. R. Wildes Mrs. John Smith 2, and the rest one each: Mrs. W Backus, Windham; Mrs. E. B.

Summer Season is Attracting Many to the Ccast Resorts. Providence, R. I, July 1.—Notwith- | standing the cool weather since the | middle of last month and the handi- caps growing out of the conditions oc- casioned by the war, there appears to be the usual exodus to the shore places along Narragansett bay and its tributaries, while along the South Shore, as usual, thé number of cot- tagers and visitors from southeastern Connecticut seem as numerous as ever. During the past week there have been a number of arrivals from that sec- tion, as well as a number of visitors in Providence and other sections ‘of the state. Mrs. William Caruthers of Norwich is passing several weeks with her @aughter, Mrs. James M. Smith, in Providence. Mrs. E. H. Knowles and Miss Lila G. Thompson of North Stonington are passing a few days at Pleasant View. Miss Marie L. Smith, who has been | in the Norwich office of the Western Union Telegraph company, is to take charge of the office at Watch Hill sta- tion after July 1st for the summer. Robert Ringland of Putnam was. the guest over Jast Sundayv of his parents, Mr. and Mrs, H, S. Bingland, of Main street, Oakland. Mrs. M. D. Palmer has returned to her home in Willimantic after spend- ing a week with her sister, Mrs. Frank P. Tefft, at Exeter. Henry Plante, formerly with the Norwich fire department, now at Camp Devens, was the guest over last Sun- day of Pierre Potvin, captain of Hook and Ladder company No. 2 of Woon- socket. Miss Caroline Galiup, a teacher in the Grove street school, Pawtucket, left last week for Baitic, where she will 6pend the summer with her - father, Benjamin Gallup. During the past week Mr. and Mrs. Horace F. Turner of Danielson were the guests of Mrs. Frederick R. Wey- mmith at her cottage .at Chepiwan- oxet.

AMERICAN The United States has» |5 come the world's larges 74 manufactures. Prior to the war, ac-| cording to a compilation by The Na- tional City Bank of New York, we held third place among the nations -of the world as an exporter of manu- factures, being cléarly outranked in this line by Great Britain and Ger- many. With the opening of the war, however, and the suspension of manu- factures, and with ! the] enormous foreign demand upon our factories we have now passed Great Britain in the race and stand at the head of the list of nations exporting manufactures. The world’s exportation of manu- factures in 1913, the latest normal year in international trade were, ac- cording to the Bank's compilation, stated in very round figures, Great Britain $2,000,000,000 of domestic ! manufactures exported, Germany $1, 675,000,000, United States $1,099,000,- 000, France $775,000,000, Belgium ap- proXimately $40.000,000, Austria-Tun-| gary $375,000,000, Italy $275,000,000, ! Netherlands $25,000,000, Japan ! 000,000, Switzerland $"00000000, In- | dia $125,000,000, Sweden $100,000.000. Canda $77,000,000, Russia $70,000,000 axdd Spain $50 DOON000, Rl of these figures being in very round terms. Thus the grand total of manufactures entering international trade in the year before the war, was about $§,- 004,000,000, of which the United States supplied about one-eighth, or | in round terms $1,000,000,000. About_ ninety per cent, of the man- ufactures entering international trade in 1913 was the product of countries now at war. In certain of the coun- tries, notably Germany, Austria-Hun- gary, Belgium and Russia, exporta- tion of manufactures was suspended, and in others. notably France, Italy, and Netherls nds, the exportation greatly reduced. In still othars, how- ever, notably the United States, Can- ada and Japan, the production and ex- portation of manufactures greatly in- creased following the war. In the e of the neutral countries of Bu- rope thers was little change and ths official figures of Great Britain show comparatively little chance, though pesumably they do not include all of the war mate t out of that country by the Government especially that going to France. 1 chief countries which show a marked increase in exportation of manufactures during the war are the United States, Canada and Japan. In the case of the case of the United States the increase has been especially in material for the battlefield and the use of the Allied troops, but there has also b large increase in exports of olir manufactures eo the neutral world, Latin America, Asia, Ocenia, Africa and certain countries of Eu rope. The total value of domestic manufactures exported from the United Stat the fiscal vear ending with June, 1914, all of whicnh precedeq the war, aggregated $1,099,000,0000 in- cluding in this both finished banu- factures and those for further use in manufacturing. In the calendar year year 1915 they totalled $1,791,000,090. in 916 $2,537,000,000 and in 1917 $4018,- 000,000, while Great Britain’s total exports of domestic manufactures in 1917 were but $2,030,000,000, or abaut one- £ those of the United States in that year. With the Central Powers, Russia and Belgium no longer ex- porting and France, greatly reducing s, it is estimated that the total value of manufactures entering international trade was but little more than $8,000,000.000 of which the United States supjplied nearly or quite one- half 'her total exports in that year having been as above indicated $4,- 019,000,000, : ‘Of this enormous exportation of manufactures of ghe United States in 1917, practically four times as much as before the war and twice as much a8 that of Great Britain in 1917, more than one-fourth was destined for the battlefields of Burope.

And that word bumper has a_ joyful sig- nificance it never had before, for zinc $4,000,000. The total of iron and steel manufactures of all kinds ex- ported from the U. S. in 1917 was $1,- ,000,000 against $391,000,000 in 1915, Much of the increase in manufactures other than those for war ~purposes went _to Latin America, Asia, Africa, Ocenia and the neutral countries of Burope, to which the U. S. showed large gains he exports of 1917 com- pared with at the beginning of the war. Eating Is Paramount.
