I days and dollars are of paramount importance. Exporters, to compete in thegreat American markets, must take advantage of every shipping economy and sales advantage available to them. You cannot afford to ignore the advantages which the Seattle short route affords! One to seven days less insurance and interest charges; one to seven days quicker deliver- ies; low handling, insurance, and storage rates, are but a few.
Comparison of transpacific routes will quickly convince you that you can save days and dollars by routing via Seattle.

An example of this against n strong line of half-bucks like that certainly possessed by Shanghai would inevitably lead to defeat. As it was, had the Army taken half their chances the Interport team would have been badly defeated yesterday.
When the forward lino was on the move it proved a dangerous combination, and the full-blooded shots of Suen, Gosana and Fang that produced goals are a good augury for their prospect in front of goal. But if they lie up the field waiting for the ball to come to them instead of foraging when the game is going against their side, they will see very little of the Shanghai goal.
Clark played a brilliant game in goal, and Wynue, though on the slow alde, made few mistakes. His greatest error was that of kick ing the ball from the line into the middle of the field when it would have rolled out for a goal-kick. Safer tactics are essential...

FIRST MATCHES PROVIDE TWO
SURPRISING RESULTS.
Sir Henry Pollock, tho, holder of the Open Chess Championship, on Tuesday lost his first match in this year's tournament against O. Hassan, Another unexpected result was that between D. E. Carvalho and A. E Milne, the latter gaining the decision.
Both Hassan and Milne are now- comers to the competition, and little was known of their prowess, although the latter player has been seen, nt

PICKETS FLOGGED?
JAPANESE POLICE ACCUSED
IN HANKOW!
Hankow, Feb. 6. Indignation is again prevalent in Chinese circles fallowing the alleged flogging of three pickets
The Chinese version of the story is that the pickets were rounded up by Japanese marines outside the Concession area, while the Japan- esa story claims that they were trespassing in Japanese territory and denies the alleged whipping.
Afterwards several Japanese civiliana wors manhandled outside the concession, resulting in one having to be sent to hospital with a broken rib.-Reuter.
