unique was the joint recital Of Theodore
Celia, n Philadelphia harpist now occu-
pying the second chair In the Boston
symphony Orchestra, and Joseph Nal
kin, violoncelllst of the same organiza-
ton.
Mr.. Celia was welcomed by a large
number of friends who warmly ap-
plauded his brilliant handling of the
female of the orchestra" Some years
ago this young man was member Of
the Symphony Club, and by persistence
plus his natural ability was rewarded by
Doctor Muck. who engaged him as sec
ond harpist for the Boston symphony
Orchestra. Mr.. Celia showed his mas
terry of the harp in every detail. His
tones, with very few exceptions, were
plucked clearly and with absolute pre-
cision. There was none of that prelimi-
nary grating or scratching which is
found SO frequently among harpists
Mr.. Malltins is an artist of sterling
ability. He makes his instrument sing
with the clarity of a bell. The warmth
and fulness of his playing reminded
forcibly OF the great French cellist. Ge-
rardy. zone woman, who evidently
thinks Of all tones in relation to voice
vibrations. was overheard to say, "IIe
has a Tito Ruffo tone.'D
At no time did Mr.. Maxim produce
sound from his instrument that did not
satisfy the ear completely. The tones
are soft, velvety. gentle. Even in the
broadest passages there was the warmth
and tenderness of a woman. The group
of three short numbers. although violin
compositions, did n6t seem at all foreign
to the instrument. The cellist through
out played with keen artistic perception
and poetic vision. Mr.. Malliin is indeed
a cellist of distinction.
There was but one regret, and that
was in the arrangement of the program.
Mr.. Celia was the principal offender.
His numbers We're all of the scntillating
variety that makes the sublime harp
sound sacrileg.ously like the absurd
music box. Although the photography of
harp music Is not overly extensive, there
are many compositions OF musical worth
that might much better have been
played. IT also seems too bad that the
opportunity TO hear the harp and cello
together was neglected.
The Malkin. Celia recital was under
the auspices of the Philadelphia Musical
Bureau, which also presented Mischa
Elman IA the afternoon. V, HI.

one of the biggest fidelity bonds ever

here in 1917, Il is estimated The rate
of money flow is ever Increasing.
To give legal protection TO this vast

ing more than S6,000,000 have been
issued by the National Surety Company
in a patriotic financial transaction of
mammoth proportions. The company,
to show It's confidence. is planning to
make arrangements that the risk shall

About one-tcnth of the first bond, for

were able to deliver a normal
amount Of sugar every day.
The supply Of raw sugar in the
early summer gave evidence Of
being enough for all needs.
But the rate Of consumption had
increased. An extra A50.000.OO0
pounds were required to meet the
needs Of the people from June up
to November.
"You can't eat your cake and
have it too"
A part Of this increased demand
for sugar was due to the nation.

ment. The sugar thus used is not
gone. 1t is saved. It is simply in
the fruit and jam jar instead Of
the sugar bowl.
Sugar has sold in the United
States throughout the war at an
average price lower than in any
other country. It is one Of the
cheapest foods the nation has.
Admittedly one Of the reasons
for this brilliant showing. in view
Of CHANGED world conditions. has
been the fact that the domestic
cane refining industry is in large
units.
It's a noteworthy tribute to the
domestic refining industry which
will be better appreciated the
more the events Of the last two
years are studied.
Franklin Package Sugars have
been Of great value in the wider
and more even distribution Of
sugar.
A barrel holds $50 pounds Of
loose sugar, all Of which usually
goes to one grocer. II has been
possible to ship practically the
same amount Of package sugar in
three l20.pound cases to three
different Srocers.
The grocer has been able to

check boarding.
1t will be necessary for srocers
and consumers to watch carefully
their distribution and purchases
during the approaching period Of
readiustment.
Housewives can cooperate with
this plan by buying Franklin Pack

production is unavailable to Il
The main sources Of available
sugar for the United States and
the Allies are narrowed down TO
theWest Indies principally Cuba).
Hawaii, the Philippines. Louis;-
ana. and the susar-beet fields Of
the Middle West.
Cuba has now increased its pro-
duction Of sugar cane, but Eng
land, France and other foreign
countries perforce have increased
their importations Of sugar from
Cuba.
There is an abundance Of sugar
in far-away Java. It is as useless
to the world as unmined gold. be-
cause no nation can spare the
ships to carry it.
This country and Europe could
only procure sugar from Java by
using ships badly needed to carry
American troops and supplies to
France.
It takes $50 days for a cargo
ship travelling at the rate Of 200
miles a day to 60 from England
to Java and return, counting in
the loading and discharsins at
both ends. The same ship travel
ing between New York and France
takes so days for round trip.
Therefore the same ship can
make three round trips between
New York and France while it is
making one round trip between
England and Java.
The competition among nations
for Cuban raw sugar, has forced
up its price, with necessary COR
responding increase in the cost Of
refined sugar. This competition
has now been overcome by the
combined efforts Of the United
States Food Administration. the
Allied Governments, and all ele.
ments Of the sugar industry.
In the midst Of such abnormal
conditions, this Company has
done everything within its power.
in cooperation with the Govern
ment, to provide an even distribu-
ton Of sugar to consumers at the
lowest possible price.
In constant effort to stabilize
the price, we have even sold sugar
at less than market prices-for
some time at a full cent a pound
below the market.

were severe strikes in the re-
fineries Of this and other COM
