GET PHONOGRAPH RECORDS
Million or More Wanted for Fighting
Men

New York, Oct. 26.-Fiyc hundred
cities and towns throughout the Uni
ted States started an intensive drive
today, under the auspices of the pho
nograph records recruiting corps, this
city, to round up a million or more
photograph records to be sent TO
American soldiers and sailors in can
tonments here and IN service over
seas.
In New York hundreds of men and
women prominent in musical and pa
triotc work are devoting their time
to make canned music week" GER
tain success.
ted States are cooperating to get the
idle or "slacker records" out Of their
dusty cabinets and into the service Of
the soldiers. Every music store is a
voluntary receiving station for idle
records, and those sent to the dealers
will be promptly put into active ser
vice in home camp, on a DESTROYER or
transport, or at the front in France
"A musical army, singing army,
is an army that will preserve it's mo-
ralc and is on the road to victory"
says Major Gen. j. Franklin Bell, hon
orary chairman Of the national phono-
graph record recruiting corps, in a
message to the Ameriacn people. "The
man or woman who takes q record
from his or her phonograph library to
give for the use Of the soldiers gives
something that will cheer and inspire
them. Clean fun and wholesome en-
iertairment stirs a man to the givrag
of his best for his country"
