OF SO genial hostess ais Mrs. Ayerill.

happy play days as well as day Of
joyous feasting.
At p. N. nearly all the members
were present. and, after short business
hour the afternoon was surrendered TO
grand time in its fullest meaning.
Apt story telling was feature, which
provoked SO much laughter that Mrs.
Dix thought it advisable TO remind the
club that study, rather than amusement,
| is its aim.
Consequently, after each lady was sup-
piled with pencil and paper, a problem

equally puzzling. into the names OF we'll
known Barre people.
The problem was solved, however, and
between twenty and thirty previously
unheard of expressions became. not BY
the magic OF Presto, changel" but by
persistent study, the familiar names Of
everyday associates.
Promptly at o'clock the ladies were
ushered into the cheerful diningroom
The tables were beautifully decorated
with carnations and clover bows, each
table being lighted with wax candles
set in d beautiful eandeabrum, without
shades, Dainty place cards, in the club
colols, green and white decorated with
a tiny branch Of asparagus fern, assured
each partaker that good cheer and vel

LOCKED IN ROOM OF
LONG BEACH BATH HOUSE
HOTEL KEEPER HAS PECULIAR
EXPERIENCE
Man Shivers and Fumes Until Watch
man Hears His Cries and Sum-
mons Manager, Who Gives
Him His Clothes

Special to The Herald.
LONG BEACH, May 2.-Swimming
blissfully about in the big plunge in
the Long Beach bath house Charles e.
Hart, who is proprietor of Hotel Tu-
lane, 3301A South Hill street, Los An
geles, became suddenly conscious late
last evening that the big building was
oppressively and strangely silent. Then
he awoke to the realization that no
one else was in the pool, that no spec
tators were warming the gallery seats
and that no one connected with the
establishment could be seen in the
office.
The sudden feeling of loneliness
caused him to swim to the edge of the
plunge and seek his dressing room,
but when he rang the bell number
of times and no response came in the
shape of an attendant to unlock the
door which separated him from his
duds the full enormity of his predica-
ment burst upon him. Then he hur-
ried.
An hour after the night watchman
went on duty he was surprised and
startled to hear series of bangs and
thumps on the big double doors of the
bath house and an accompanying
series of CALCULATIONS, half angry, half
pleading.
A shivering man, clad only in a wet
bathing suit, hot in only one sense
of the word. answered the queries OF
the watchman by saying simply that
he had been locked in and he wanted
out. Manager Archer was telephoned
to and a few minutes later arrived on
the scene. He unlocked Hart's dress
ing room and also secured from the
checking case in the office the Los An
geles mans money and watch.
Mr.. Archer is unable to explain how
the attendants could have closed the
building and gone away not knowing
that bather was still in the plunge

Only Thirty Instruments to Be Sold
on These Terms

For years we have been selling
the Kurtzmann Piano. Hun
dreds have been sold in Southern
California and thousands have
been sold in the east.
Sixty years the Kurtzmann
people have been making pianos
regular Uprights and Grapds.
These instruments reach the acme
of musical perfection.
But the era of the Player Piano
is with us.
To supply the popular demand
the Kurtzmann Co. now offers an
interior piano player, using for
this purpose their very finest up
right piano, in which they built
mechanically perfect, self-playing
device.
On this dual instrument they
have named a regular selling
price of $3.50.
But to assist us in introducing
this instrument in Southern Cali
fornia arrangements have been
made to give $1O0 worth Of music
rolls free and a special discount
of $1OO cash to the purchasers Of
the first ten players.
After we have sold ten Of these
splendid instruments we know
that we can sell thirty more in a
very short time.
You get a $3.50 Kurtzmann Player
Piano and 800 worth of music rolls
for $3.50. We can arrange for monthly
or quarterly payments.
You will realize that this is very
unusual offer-this giving away of 500
worth of music. The Piano Player is
of little use without a large variety of
music. The amount of rolls usually
given with a player is not sufficient to
give one variety enough-result, your
investment soon runs into money. If
you take advantage of our wonderful
offer we start you off with complete
library of one hundred rolls or more.
You may take them all at once or Sc
70
amount is taken.
We would not and could not We're it
not for this special concession make
this offer. When these thirty players
are sold the special offer will be with
drawn and the regular price of $3.50
with twenty-five rolls will be the cost
Of the Kurtzmann Player Piano.
For years we have sold the Cecilian
Player only. We now offer in addition
this fine instrument, the Kurtzmann
Player Piano-a moderate priced in
strument of real musical quality.
We will allow a reasonable sum on
your old piano, if you want to trade it
in as part payment.
Don't fail to see and hear the new
Kurtzmann Player Piano.
Come in tomorrow. We will gladly
demonstrate the instrument for you.
You will eventually want player
piano. Why not buy one now, taking
advantage of this exceptionally liberal
offer?

Special to The Herald.

LONG BEACH. May AT the
meeting of the local lodge of knights
of Pythias last night resolutions were
adopted instructing the delegates who
will represent the lodge at the grand
lodge to be held here in May to pre-
sent the name of City Attorney Ste
phen G. Long for prelate of the grand
lodge.
To secure this office is a high honor
and one greatly to be coveted. The
local knights feel that Attorney Long
is The proper man for the place and
that he stands an extraordinarily good
chance of being elected.
