Mexican Exposition Concepts Promote Education Progress
The author praises Mexican education oriented expositions as advancing learning toward the later days of life. Buildings are permanent school structures spread across the city rather than clustered in a single campus. This differs from American expo models and is seen as a step forward, with promoters urged to note Mexican practices.

Post Office Raid Backed by Washington Attorney
Washington attorney Franklin B. Bennett says the Post Office Department acted rightly in pursuing the alleged swindling scheme linked to the Cooperative United Exchange. Bennett, who aided inspectors, details contacting Holcomb, investigating the offer, and reporting it before Chicago officials arrested Holcomb last Tuesday. The Arizona corporation claimed varied businesses, but inspectors say its main aim was selling valueless bonds and agency rights for bogus ventures.
