Then install a Cecilian piano
therein.
The Cecilian-that anyone can
PLAYS ideal for the home be-
cause its wonderful music can be
drawn forth by the children, as
we'll as by the grown-ups, despite
unframed fingers.
How charming for the family
circle to have at its command
through the Cecilian, the worlds
best music. What an environment
for bringing up children! To know
and appreciate the beautiful be-
comes second nature to them.
The Cecilian piano is the first
choice of scores of the worlds
greatest musicians. They choose
it as their piano because of it's per-
feet action, its delicate shades Of
touch, it's tonal purity and its
resonance.
The Cecilian's metal mechanism
renders it impervious to weather
or climatic conditions, and makes
It the most durable of all pianos.
It's air chambers being of phosphor
bronze and steel, the action can
not be weakened by an escape of
air due to warping from extremes
of heat or cold.
We invite you to come and play
on the Cecilian. Its superior points
will demonstrate themselves. You
will understand then why the Ce-
Gillian is the ideal piano for your
home.

JUSTICE TO CIVILIAN PROFESSORS

The report of the Board of Visitors
TO the Naval Academy has recently
been issued in pamphlet form from
the Government Printing Office.
The report contains sixteen recon-
mendations, among which is the re-
newsl of its recommendation, with
strong emphasis, to pass such neees-
sary legislation that will give the
midshipmen commissions as ensigns
on graduation from the Naval Acad-
envy.
The report commends the executive
ability and discipline of the then re-
firing superintendent, John NJ. Bow
yer, and the, at that time. commandant,
r. E. Coontz.
The report also recommends that in
justice to the civilian professors and
instructors, who have rendered many
years efficient service to the Acad-
envy, that suitable provision be made
by appropriate legislation to care
for them in old age. This recommen-
dation is a most excellent one. One of
the instructors, Prof. A. j. Corbesier,
swordmaster, has served in that ca
pacity for nearly half century. -
There has been no provision made
for him, and the efficient as welA as
the long and faithful service he has
given the Naval Academy demands
retirement with due compensation for
the work Of nearly fifty years. Sure
ly the Government cannot fail to appre-
ciate the worth of man like Profess
sor Corbesier, who has given his life
to the service, and has taught sword
manship to nearly every admiral in
the United States Navy today, and
every other officer and midshipman.
The Boards recommendations should
not die with the printing of them in
the Board of Visitors report just is
sued.

GOOD REASON FOR CENSORING
HOPS

Every fair.minded, well-disposed
citizen, as well as the navy contin-
gent, cannot but admire the stand
Superintendent Gibbons, of the Ma
val Academy, has taken to surround
the midshipmen with every care and
precaution that would be theirs if I'M
der the fostering protection of their
parents at home.
AS step in this direction their in
vitations to hops at the Naval Acad-
cmy are now censored by the hop
committee, and any undesirable per-
sons will not be included in these
j Invitations. With a brigade of eight
hundred midshipmen, it is a matter
q no little difficulty to regulate the
tssemblage that would, under ordi-
! airy conditions, gather at the Naval
academy dances, were the invitations
consciously sent out, and were cards
OF admission bearing the persons
rlme, not required to be presented at
tie door.
Most of us who have lived in An
napolis, 10. these many years, know
that there have been on various and
sundry occasions undesirable people
on the dance floor at the Naval Acad-
envy. To be sure a great many peo-
pie did not recognize these, or even
know of their presence, but people in
public life did know, and it was I'M
favorably commented upon.
Oftentimes there would be dancing
around our fair daughters and brave
sons, those whom we would close our
doors against. and whose society would
be barred from our homes. We, of An
napolis, know this has happened not
once, twice or thrice. but many
times, and we rejoice that Captain
Gibbons has taken a means TO pre-
vent its recurrence. This paper has
always taken the stand that the Ma
val Academy hops are not public, but
private social functions. That they
are given and paid for by the midship-
men and that those. not specially in
vted. are not expected to attend, any
more than an outsider would presume
to come. unlimited, TO your home, and
partake of your Individual hospitality
as their host.
The hops are not Government
affair, even if held in Government
building. and at a Government insti-
tuition. They should, therefore, be
surrounded with some guard and pro-
lection for the benefit of the Young
men who, in years to come, are TO rep
resent our government in other lands,
and whose department at all times is
expected to be that of an officer and
q gentleman.
Summer has gone: even Indian
summer. The last support was re-
moved when the midshipmen at the
Naval Academy donned their winter
overcoats Saturday.
The warships in New York harbor
are painted gray. That's the way
most New York fans feel just now.
