Band Day at the Chautauqua.

Yesterday was band day at tne
Redpath- -VaWter chautauQua tent.
Bohumir Kryl and his band furnishing
splendid program of music both aft
ernoon and evening. Every available
seat in the tent was taken, and rows
of chairs were placed outside the
tent and the sides of the tent raised
so that everyone who came could en-
joy the music. The band was ap-
preciatively received, and responded
numbers. Classical, popular, and de-
scriptive selections were rendered by
this large and talented organization,
which is under the perfect control OF
the leader and plays with perfect uni
son. During the program last night
Mr. Kryl, who is famous as a cornetist
played a cornet solo, and responded
to the enthusiastic encore with a
beautiful rendition of "a Perfect Day"
One of the prettiest selections given
last night was the anvil chorus, a
descriptive number, in which four
young men occupied the foreground
and struck rhythmic blows on an
wills, the sparks from which illumined
the darkened stage, and the act add
ing greatly to the effectiveness of
the descriptive composition being
played by the band. The descriptive
melody accompanying "The Soldiers
Dream" moving picture story of a
brave warrior, added greatly to it's
realism. The programs both afternoon
and evening were long and replete
with beautiful numbers, and the COM
ing of Bohumir Kryl and his big band
proved real festival of harmony.

Just as it is now obstinately shut
ting its eyes to the need of industrial
preparedness, for three years the Viii
son administration refused to see the
need Of adequate military prepared

der it was content to rely on a regular
army that could only muster 10000
available men and refused to continue
the established policy Of building up
our navy. When the time came for ac-
ton the country had not sufficient
troops TO police the border, and this
force has been supplemented by trine
more than one-third the war strength
Of the national guard. If the national
administration had had the ability to
interpret the signs of the time military
