ZEDELER SYMPHONIC QUINTET

The Zedeler Symphonic Quintet
brings to the lyceum a genuinely new
idea, that of presenting symphonic
concerts" with company of only five
musicians-each an artist. To secure
this symphonic effect specially con-
structed reed organ is carried. This
gives all the reed and wind effects
Of large orchestra and combined with
the piano and stringed instruments,
produces an effect as startling as it
is unique.
For many years the cry has gone
up from thousand throats that the
audiences don't appreciate anything
good but the Zedeler Quintet has dem
onstrated the fallacy of that claim.
1t is one of the best appreciated mus
ical organizations doing lyceum or
Chautauqua work. After hearing the
Zedelers one is forced to coincide with
James Russell Lowell in saying that
the very earliest and hardest of hearts
has some musical strings to it, for the
universal appeal that the Zedeler
Quintet makes is proof that they know
how to reach the heartstrings Of all.

WESTERN SLOPE ROAD

Montrose Enterprise:
There is a proposition on foot to
spend about nine Thousand dollars IN
constructing good well packed grav-
el road from Montrose to Olathe. The
state will put up one-third and the
county will put up one-third if the peo-
pie who use the road most will put up
the other third. Theodore Heckert 10
raising the $1,000 from the people who
reside on the road nearest Olathe and
now it is up to those most interested
in that bad stretch between here and
Menoken to raise the other $4,000.
Then in order for the county to spend
the nine thousand dollars most eco
nomically scaraffer and roller must
be secured at cost Of perhaps $500
ond a gravel screening outfit at about
$3.50, and they may be compelled to
get a crusher at another additional
cost. All these matters are now being
carefully considered, and as the State
Highway commission has consented
to furnish part Of the money It is
pretty certain that something will be
done.

SOLUTION OF FOOD SHORTAGE
OFFERED BY COLORADO EDITOR

A Boulder newspaper man Few
days ago, offered . solution Of the
food shortage problem, that from the
standpoint Of the unmilitary man ap-
pears to have considerable value. We
do not recall which Of the Boulder
newspapers discussed the subject,
else we should gladly give credit.
The proposal il that al Teuton
prisoners captured by the Allies be
brought to the United States to save
the expense and the difficulties OF
transportation Of food across the
ocean.
Several million prisoners are in
termed in the British Isles, France,
and Italy, that must be fed and cloth
ed. The Allies have but little use
for them and most Of them, accord
ing to report, are living in the idle
ness Of prison life.
II these prisoners were brought to
America they could be fed here with
out difficulty. Nay, more, they could
be put to work in the fields and In
the mines Of this country and further
aid US in supplying our own people
and our allies with food stuffs, grains
and coal.
Every transport bearing these pris-
oners would leave port bulletined -
q prison ship. II the Teutons saw ut
to send it 70 the bottom and murder
their own men, it would be, their
affair. II IL also suggested that the
transports carrying soldiers from this
side include in their load at least ten
per cent German prisoners. 1t Is not
in accordance with the rules Of war
to use prisoners to shield fighting
force, but the submarine il \ law
less fighting machine, Is employed by
the Germans and they would be COM
PEELED to resort to lawlessness in des-
troying their own people.
Two million men imported into
this country now would make vast
difference in the output Of farms,
mines and factories.
1t would require comparatively few
soldiers to guard the prisoners-no
more than are now needed to guard
them in Europe. In fact none Of our
first line troops need be used, but home
guards.
Our transport ships are not COM
ing home full laden anyway.
1t might be objected that large
portion Of these men would stay after
the war and become citizens, but that
is not serious objection for the Ger
mans, unless mistakenly allowed to
settle in large groups and keep their
own longuage and their own news
papers, make some of our best Amer
lean citizens.
