Mrs. L. A. Rheaume, of AS Lyman street, Holyoke, Massachusetts, has been buying War Savings Stamps for year. Early in March she applied at the postoffice to cash what she had 1850. She told the postmaster that her husband, who sells bread, was buying a motor truck for $825 and they needed the money. The post master advised her to hold the stamps until April first, and explained the in- crease in value (about $2). She was very glad to take advantage of the suggestion.

FRENCH BAND C)NCER!
WAS GREAT SUCCESS
He'd Audience From First Oh
Star Spangled Banner To
Last OF 4Over There.

From the first majestic strains of
The Star SpangIed Banner and the in
spring La Marseilles to the playing of
the only great late American, war song,
|"0ver There the famous French band
which played last night to 1000 people
in the armory, had the closest attention
of all And not only that, but it had
the most enthusiastic approval Of all
as shown by the repeated encores.
AID then the audience was in won
derfuly fine humor even if the concert
did not begin until along luwards 10
o clock, as the men and director were
truly French and lived up to the aver
age idea of what a French band should
be.
The director, famous on the battle
field as well as graduate or the Con-
servatory of Music at Paris, was there
with the correct French gestures and the
swaying and the emphatic beating of
time as his famous musicians were led
up to the fortissimo passages. For
even the man who is such a musical
barbarian as to be unable to distinguish
between an American and a French
national anthem, could not but feel that
the French players were something
! different.
Wouldn' Z Give Encore.
Musicians are temperamental and not
supposed to be guided by the ways and
customs Of the average individual
Hence when Georges True was not
quite satisfied with the Kranich
Bach grand piano, an Instrument vA uil,
usual beauty of tone, he reIusuu III
respond to an encore and refused to
appear on the program the second time
But Georges, he of the rounded musical
forehead and temple and the true look
Of the musician, was such fine plan
list that the audience goodnaturadely
forgave him, even if it did give hin
the most enthusiastic encore of the
evening.
| The audience was given a program
most appropriate. Instead OF going in
to the long heavy stuff, Bach and Bee
thoven and such, the conGuctsr present
ed program mostly Of military air'
and selections played on the battle
field. 1t pleased the immense audience
as there was truly dash and flint
Ispirit So truly French.
/ And now the Salem Unit Americsr
War Mothers win have sufficient fund
to properly prepare an appropriate hons
coming for the boys of Company M VIII,
were overseas, There is credit due tt
the patriotic and energetic business mel
who brought the band to the city ant
who dug deep inato their pockets in or
der that the entire receipts OF tne con
cert should be given to the War Moth
ers.
J It was fine eincert and now NOR
than ever we all love the French. Wv
la France and Vive the French band.
