people who have created bad debts the

The entire family. consisting of father,
mother and three children, lived in one

provided in one corner of the room.

American Piano for Pope.

The Weber Piano Company will hereafter
be entitled to use the papal coat-of-arms.
The permission is incorporated in docu-
ment lust received from Rome, which an
nounces that his holiness has selected the
Weber Plano for his personal use and in
the holy apostolic palaces. This is re-
garded as a remarkable tribute to an Amer
lean product, and is believed to be the first
document of this kind received in this coun-
try from Plus X.
Aside from the importance of an honor
coming from such distinguished source
the papal appointment derives additional in
terest from the fact that the present pope
is a profound student of music. The recent
changes in church music inaugurated by
him have caused general comment outside
as we'll as within the church That he
should have selected an American piano for
first place in the Vatican is regarded as Of
the most far-reaching Importance, not
merely to the Weber Piano Company, but
to American art interests generally. 1t is
occasioning comment among musicians at
home and abroad that the Weber, which is
distinctively a product of American genius,
should have been selected in preference to
any Of the well-known pianos of Germany,
England or France.
