BEFORE LARGE AUDIENCE.
Major Piper Delivers Address on Life
Saving Service,

A large audience gathered at the YER
mont Avenue Christian Church last night,
the occasion being the first social recep-
ton of the Mems Club OF the church for
this season. In the main auditorium six
American flags were tastefully draped over
the pulpit, and one large flag covered the
speakers stand. Each of the fifty mem
bers Of the club wore a red carnation,
clusters of which also ornamented the pull
pit platform.
The supper room was decorated with flags
and flowers.
Mr.. F. NJ Bradley had charge of the
exercises in the auditorium, and Mr.. j..
Wallace Allen superintendent the supper
room, aided by large committee, with
Miss Helen Viva Bridge presiding at the
coffee urn. ea@-"
The address of the evening was by Major
Horace l.. Piper, assistant superintendent
OF the life saving service, who held the
attention of the large audience for nearly
an hour with description Of the life saving
service OF the government. His dramatic
portrayals of the wreck the lifeline, the
signal rocket, the breeches- buoy and the
rescue of thousands of imperied sailors.
gave to his hearers their first real knowl-
edge of the heroism and lofty courage of
the 1900 men, who, taking their lives in
their hands, by day and by night, patrol
the entire coast line of our great nation.
Major Piper said that in thirty years out
of $1,000 imperiled lives, fully 10000 had
been saved by these heroic men. and that
out of vessels and cargoes valued at $780,
oG,ooo more than $4,000 300 had been ac-
tually saved.
Music was furnished BY the Schubert
Quartet. consisting of Nelson P. Meyer. first
tenor; c. w. Bridwell second tenor; d. D.
Lore, first bass; Ben. A. Lfneback, second
bass. Prof. Charles Hayden Chase presided
at the organ.
In the supper room more than 800 per-
sons enjoyed the hospitality of the club.
The social hour was interspersed with
music by the quartet, and at IL o'clock the
audience separated with cheers and COM
pliments for Major Piper, for the Schubert
Quartet and for the Mems Club of the
Vermont Avenue Christian Church.

MUSIC FOR XMAS
Extraordinary Concessions to Be Obtained BY
Buying Pianos Direct Of the Bradbury
Manufacturers, 1895 Pa. Ave.
Only 8 Days Left in Which to Select Piano
for Xmas,

We have never had such a large stock OF new
panos-and COED, hish-grade pianos will never be
cheap again as they are this Christmas. The
skilled workmen in the piano factories are draw
ing higher wages and working less hours than ever
before-with the result that the manufacturers
must raise prices next year. Any one eontem-
plating the purchase Of piano can save from $50
to 500 by buying now.
Another point: When you buy piano Of us you
eliminate two profts-that Of the jobber and that
Of the retailer-for plano manufacturers
and sell direct to the consumer Besides, think
Of the great assortment we carry-nearly 200 new
pianOs-as large stock as YOU will find at the
biggest piano factory in America embracing every
modern style Of the famous Bradbury Upright and
Baby Grand Pianos and the excellent Webster
Pianos-both of which made by us-sold at
manufacturers prices-and on the easiest Of easy
terms. Many improvements have been made In
both action and casework the past year. and you
