Coffin's Orchestra of Wilmington Plays
for Benefit of Stieff Pianos Exhibit
The manufacturer display and sale
of the celebrated Stieff piano of Bal
timore, which has been going on at
DeFord's Department Store for two
weeks, reached delightful climax last
evening when. despite the rain, Coffin's
orchestra of IL pieces of Wilmington,
came to Smyrna and gave a concert.
DeFord's Store and window display
had been enriched by profUsion of
autumn colors and flowers and at
early evening, a number congregated
at the store to hear the music. Mr..
Coffin, the manager of the orchestra,
is the author of "My Sweet Mary"
and "Autumn Leaves Waltz. P" Both
of these selections were played by the
orchestra with good effect. After
the concert at DeFord's the orchestra
repaired to the beautifully decorated
Club House where they discoursed
music for dance and card party for
the benefit of the Red Cross. There
were 20 or more couples present.
which number would doubtless beer
more than doubled had it not been fol
the inclement weather. MIR. w. ].
