A newer estimate of the cost
of the world war IN real and po-
tential lives has just been com
pleted by the study of the war,
operating in Copenhagen. This s
organization after scientific calcu
lation, assesses the human loss
at more than 35, 100000 persons.
OF that number only 9,819,O00
are actually listed as having been
killed in action. Deaths as a di.
rect result of the war, due to ep-
idemics and blockades, totaled
5,3Ql, 900. And the decline in birth
rate during the war period is
shown to have been 10000, 900.
The aggregate, as estimated, is
equal to one-third the population
of the United States.

LENzO'S HEOPDLITAN ORCHESTRAL
QUARTETTE.

Among the Neopolitans music
is almost a religion. Through
out beautiful Southern Italy the
operas and the music of the mas
ters is much better known than
in America, where it is hard for
the busy man to take time to get
more than a smattering. Stu
dents for years of their respect
i've instruments, the Quartette as
shown above, have always work
ed under the eyes of some Of
Europe's best masters, the Or
chestra has a finish that is par
ticularly pleasing in it's ensemble
numbers. This company rem
ders the overtures, the grand op-
era arias and the light opera fav,
orites with a snap and dash that
is the result of long practice and
any appearances together.
They were drawn to the concert
platform several seasons ago and
from the concert and recital plat
forms to the Chautauqua plat
form was natural change. This
Quartette has been brought from
Newark, New Jersey, under the
leadership of Signor Decarli, who
is also a concert pianist of note.
He features in all his program
solo, trio and quartette instru-
mental numbers that never fail
to win their way in the hearts of
the audiences.
The Neopolitans are quick to
reward appreciation, so when a
selection pleases you let them
know and they will double their
efforts. They will appear with
two programs on the Radcliffe
Chautauqua in BOONE, Friday
Sept. 18th, afternoon and night.
