great Creatofe who viz siye two per-
formances daily throughout the fort
night of the exposition March s TO 80.
The same Creatore is a man OF tre-
mendous personality rich in every
thing which goes to make up a really
great musician. A Neapolitan by birth,
but an American by naturalization, he
has played before the crowned heads
of Europe as well as before those UNI
crowned kings-the musical critics OF
the New York press Nowhere has he
failed to receive the highest praise and
he has repeatedly declared that the
musical taste Of the people of Ken
lucky is, as an average, the most ac-
curate in recognizing true musical
worth that he has ever seen. That
the great master has not been over
estimated in Louisville and in the rest
OF the United States is attested by
the following paragraph from the
London Daily Tribune:
THE band certainly deserves the
high praise it has received in America.
The musical qualities of the tone and
style are great, and although Signor
Creatore walks about the platform and
conducts by means OF gestures which
might be called sensational, there is
no 'trickery' about his Interpretation
of the music. The instruments have
that clear, rather shrill tone which the
Italians prefer. Tine cornet, the prin-
cipal clarinet, the trombone, for in
stance. are all remarkable as virtuosi.
The ensemble is as fine as possible, and
the clean phrasing, especially in forte
passages, goes beyond anything we
have heard from other bands. From
every point of view this is a finer band
than that of Sousa, and there is much
in its work which should attract mu-
sicians as well as the uncritical"
When It is considered that the work
of this great music master may be OBJ
served without extra charge and the
admission price is only twenty-five
cents, the fact will be readily recog-
nized that Louisville is putting forth
every effort possible to give immense
value for the money which will be re-
ceived at the exposition gate.
For those who prefer music and
laughter in the evening and outdoor
entertainments during the morning
and afternoon, there is the excellent
choice of visiting Louisville's outdoor

IDEAS CLEANED FROM ANIMALS

1t is interesting to note how man
has borrowed many of his ideas from
the animal world. Wasps made pa
per from wood long before man de-
cided it was good substitute for
rags. The folding scissors and fold
ing pocket compass are only copies
of the folding lower jaw of the
dragon fly. The flying squid, a
species of cutie fish, has way of
projecting itself as high as IL feet
above the surface of the water by
forcibly eXpelling water from its
body. Man saw this and invented
the skyrocket. The ropemaking ma
chine used in the United States
navy yard follows almost the pre-
else lines that a spider does When
making his own frail cable.
