" Buyers Week for 1916 in Portland is already the biggest thing of its kind since the institution for entertaining visiting buyers was established four years ago. The total registration of last year, which had been the biggest year, was passed before noon yesterday, and when the registration reports closed last night there were about 675 names in or nearly 100 more than the total registration for the full week a year ago. The arrival ot buyers from the "close-in" cities of Oregon and South western Washington has not reached its maximum yet, and the registration today is expected to "continue lively. 'I believe that the registration for the entire week will approach doubl that of a year ago," said M. B. Smead. secretary in charge of the headquar ters, yesterday. The entertainment features yesterday included the Ad Club luncheon at the Benson at noon and parties to the Strand, and Pan- tapes Theaters last night. The visitors will be guests at luncheon at Albers Brothers mill' at noon today, making the trip by auto from the Chamber of Commerce at noon, and they will be taken to Co lumbia Beach for a frolio tonight. Furniture buyers will be taken for a trip over the Columbia River Highway this afternoon with the furniture man ufacturers as their hosts. Shoe Man Is Hoaxed. Among the humorous features that cropped out at the registration head quarters was a hoax put over on George Alexander, of Goodwin's Shoe Company, by the registration committee and Phil Bates. Alexander had been on the job early and late and when Phil came in lie spotted him as a possible prospect. Strange to say, he had never chanced to meet Phjl, and his celebrity In Port land waa unknown to him. Bates fell in with the spirit of the game, and allowed himself to he de coyed to the house of the company, where Alexander put In two hours talk ing the merits of his line. "He talked so well I darned near bought a line of shoes at that," re marked Phil, when the deception was finally sprung, and Alexander had hashed away to buy cigars for every body he could think of and. to implore them to "keep It dark." Wtrlle the actual sale of goods dur ing Buyers" week is regarded as second in importance to the acquaintance and friendships that are formed between buyers and manufacturers, reports are coming io. of steady sales each day, and the business men in the organiza tion predict that from a sales point of view alone Buyers' week will prove a great success.
