IT WAS my privilege yesterday to
look about the shop of the Topeka
Electric Company and decide what to
write about. 1 took it all in: cleo
trio irons, washing machines, pereo-
laIOfS, Sewing IldCIlIttS, NdCuuhi
cleaners, and a large array of grills,
coasters, and other convenient appli-
ances, AMI decided to sing the praises
of The Armstrong Table Stove.
1t is such an unusually efficient and
attractive affair and has great posi-
bilities for the gentle art of cookery
This little electric stove is very COM
paetly arranged and utilities every bit
of heat. Ordinarily, cooking is done
on one plate. or on one side of the
electricity, but the Armstrong Stove
uses both. Better than that, three
things can be cooked at once. so that
the meal can be served piping hot,
right at the table.
This stove broils. fries, boils,
peaches, toasts and has a waffle at
taehment besides.
1t is ideal for small families and
business women who like to prepare
their own meals
Remember The Armstrong Table
Stove. at The Topeka Elec0ie.

A HUGE SUCCESS
Chamber of Commerce Enter
tains for Kansas Teachers.
Between 5000 and 5000 Were
in Attendance.

"There were between 5000 and
5000 persons at the Chamber of Com
merce party Friday night-counting
the teachers, the members of the
Chamber, and the Washburn men stu
dents' Charles L. Mitchell, chairman
of the general reception committee of
the Chamber of Commerce, said this
morning. The party was the most
successful in every way, that we have
ever had"
Not an untoWard incident narred
its success. The safeguards thrown
around the hall were such that no per-
son not a Washburh student or hold
ing membership card in the Teach
ers' association, the Chamber of Conn
meree or the Merchants assocfat jon,
was permitted to enter. One man, a
member of the teachers association,
had mislaid his membership card and
was detained by the doorkeepers until
he had been vouehed for by Az Z.
Lunceford, president of the associa-
ton.
The second And third floors of the
Chamber of Commerce building were
crowded from the time the general
session of the convention closed in
the city auditorium. The crowds came,
mixed with their friends ana with the
Topekans, partook of the refresh
ments which were being served on
both floors, and departed, to have
their places taken Immediately by
others.
Closed at Midnight.
The reception closed promptly at
midnight last night, tho against the
will of many of the guests who were
DESTROYS of remaining longer.
twelve girls served punch and
waters in the corners on both floors
All the rooms were decorated with
autumn leaves and huge yellow chrys@
anthemums.
The opening portion of the enter
tainment consisted of a musical pro-
gram under the direction of l. b.
Henry. The program was as follows;
INV Golden Kansas" and Swing
Along" by the Modoc club; violin and
piano, Mr.. Robert Service and Miss
Bernice Hemus; two dances, one Rus
sian, and a Peggy O'NeiL~ waltz-clog
by Miss Adele Foster; soprano solo,
Miss Margaret Bell; Scotch comedian
numbers, by Mr.. Tom Powefls Git for
Home, Bruno 'Modoe quartet; sing
ing of the first and last stanzas OF
America by the audience, led by the
Modoc club.
Following the musical program
Mitchell introduced the floor COM
mittee of eight members of the CHAM
Der of Commerce. most of them IN
evening dress, and informed the teach
ers that it was quite all right for t1em
to pick the floor committees pockets,
bump into the members, complain 10
them, or to hire a taxi to go home IN
and charge the bill to the committee
or any member>0f it.
Mitchell appeared at the general
session of the convention at the audi
toriun, to invite the teachers to come
to the Chamber of Commerce party
when their own program had been
finished, and his invitation was re-
ceiEed there with cheers.

COMMUNITY INTEREST in the
harp, inspired by the marvellous con-
cert of the present week by Salvi, will
be followed by the desire of many to
play this charming instrument.
The harp has unlimited possibilities
and is so beautiful in tone that the
simplest melodies give pleasure. It is
not a difficult instrument to learn to
play. Some proficiency may be at
tanned in so few as nine or ten les
sons. \ child, or any beginner, can
make rapid progress in learning to
play the harp.
The Clark Irish Harp is excellent
for the novice as well as for stage and
concert use. 1t is thirty-nine inches
in height and can be easily handled
bv a child. 1t has an adjustable base,
thirteen inches high that harmonlZeS
with the lines of the harp which is
made of curly maple. 1t is a beauti-
full little instrument and very reason
able in price.
In addition to the Clark Irish Harp,
there are other larger and more elab-
crate designs of the instrument on
sale at The jenkins Music Company
