YOUR PATRIOTIC
DUTY
BUY A LIBERTY
BOND

Danger for the complete success
of the Liberty Loan turks In over-con-
fidence.
The announcements in the press Of
large applications by Institutions and
men Of great wealth are apt to en-
gender the comfortable feeling that
all will be well without the efforts Of
the small subscribers. This line OF
thought together with the idea that
through Observation-Disclosures al
lotments may not be made, must be
dispelled from the mind of every pa
triotic citizen.
1t Is not sufficient that this issue
should be merely bare success. 1t
must be a striking demonstration of
the overwhelming strength of purpose
animating all sincere friends of Lib
erty to bring the war to a speedy and
successful termination.
The eyes of the enemy are watch
ing this preliminary skirmish and our
victory must be made effective by a
truly popular subscription exceeding
MANY TIMES the amount offered
1t behooves every INDIVIDUAL to
let his action be entirely guarded by
the conviction that upon HIS UT
MOST PERSONAL EFFORT depends
the only result worthy of the great
cause which all free men desire and
INTEND to make triumphant. Hest
fancy as to the importance of the
amount available should not be al
lowed to prevail. The Bonds are in
denominations as low as $50, and all
purchasers of one of these will con
tribute their quota towards swelling
the volume of subscriptions.
No thought of the detail work at
tendant upon subscribing to the loan
need deter We will as we have
already stated - attend to that free
Of any charge All that is necessary
is that we receive notification Of the
amount desired.

Scriabine's Seventh Sonata in one

positions Of unusual quality.
Mr.. Royce Is a son OF the late Pro-
lessor Royce, Of Harvard. and is now
conductor OF the newly established
Ithaca symphony Orchestra. For him
no apologies need be made because OF
the fact that ne is an American. His
Theme and Variations is a work of
sound musical merit. While it's mate
rial is not perhaps strictly original,
its working out IL unusually interest
ing As a composition for the piano

and real brilliancy, and it ought 10
prove grateful to any virtuoso. Mr..
Bauer played it with fine effect, and IL
reused long sustained applause.
Laparra's Rhythmes Espsgnols were
equally suited for the instrument, and
were filled with color and incisive
rhythm. They were admirably sugges-
tive of the hints given of their nature
by the composer himself and they
aroused the hope that their composers

on an early American subject, may
prove as vital and spontaneous. The
other compositions played By Mr..
Bauer were Schonberg's "Clayier-

OLIVE MEAD QUARTET

Concert In Acolian Hall Proves Excel

The Olive Mead Quartet returned TO
us last night, and the size Of the audi
once in Aeolian Hall proved that it's
following is unimpaired. The four
young women have made for them
selves a distinct place in New York's
musical life, and have long proved
themselves an organization well bal
anced and we'll controlled.
On last nights programme there
were three numbers-the Schubert
Quartet in D minor, posthumous; the
Taneiew, op. 7, and the Beethoven in
fat, op. is, No. 6. fi
Miss Mead and her three associates
gave of all a smooth, musicisnly read
ing. Their playing was throughout
unexaggerated, fluent in style, precise
in attack. II was always the work Of
sincere musicians whose one aim was
to effect perfect ensemble. This en-
semble they have attained in past
years, and they attained it again last
night. The Olive Mead Quartet is in
deed 10 be welcomed back to its old
place, and that welcome was extended

The Promise and Its Fulfllment

Today there are substantially 25oo owners
in America and Europe qualified by experience
to back these claims.
During 1916, more officials and engineers
of the motor car industry, in buying car for
personal use, gave preference to the Marmon "a
than to any contender for its honorS.
Now the Marmon returns to the Motor
Show taking the pre-eminent place that this
congress of high authorities accordS it. And to
its original popularity has been added the en-
thusiasm of owners and the esteem of the public.
Here we are prepared to explain to you,
why the Marmon "a requires only grease
cups
Why it averages 50 to Is per cent more
miles per gallon of gasoline and weighs half
ton less than any other car of equal size and
power
Why it holds the road at high speeds and
does not sway, Notwithstanding its lightness-
And how in these and numerous other ways,
we have applied the laws of science to higher
advantage than has any other motor car maker
to date.
When you have seen and understood the
reasons for Marmon pre-eminence, you will not
be surprised to note, among the new cars at the
Show, how tendencies indicate that Marmon
triumphS are to become the standard for auto
mobiles of tomorrow.

No page, perhaps in the history Of motor
car development contains brighter story of
achievement than the chapter on the Marmon
