CONCERT UNITEs
GREAT INVENTIONS

The radiophone, the motion pic
ture machine and the Mills melody
violin-the three greatest inventions
of the recent past, were brought to-
gether recently at Chicago, and sa-
cred concert rendered which was
picked up by the radio enthusiasts of
twenty states.
While the program of the sacred
concert was being given, motion. pic
lures were made by the International
News Reel, and upwards of 100000
motion picture fans will see not
alone the operations of the radio
broadcasting station on the screen,
but will also have the opportunity of
witnessing the operation of the latest
invention in the musical world.
The program which was arranged
under the direction of two musical
directors, Morgan L. Eastman, of the
Westinghouse Radio Station KYW at
Chicago, and Banks Cregier, was
called the greatest musical program
broadcasted so far by radio.
The Mills melody violin furnished
the violin music that accompanied
the singers, the harp, the organ and
four-part harmony solo on one of
the group violins outshone the other
numbers of the program.
Wilson j. Wetherbee, program d.
rector of KYW Radio Station, an
nounced the concert to the radio
world, and as the program was
about to proceed the broadcasting
room resembled a concert hall and
moving picture studio combined.
In the center of the broadcasting
room, on the upper floor Of a sky
scraper in Chicagos loop, the vari.
GUS musical instruments were ar.
ranged around the huge microphone
which receives the music and trans
ports it by air channels to the world.
At the left Herman Klum, pianist,
sat at a concert grand piano, to his
right sat Miss Shelby Jabine at an
organ, and Joseph Stelzl was seated
at the Mills melody violin console,
with five vioIins of the group control
circled in front of the microphone.
When the signal was given for the
program to proceed the following an
was sent out over the
radio:
Tonight among other musical
numbers it will be your pleasure to |

musical invention, played over the
radiophone, the latest device for

mills melody violins are real vio-
Inns, any number Of which may be
placed under the control of a single
player. The musician sits at the key
board, resembling that of any piano
Or organ. Every violin he is playing
IS at times perfectly under his con-
.rol, so that he can execute the most
iificult feats of violin playing with
ease.
ION each violin all four strings can
be played at once and four-part har-
nony with string quartet effect can
De produced.

controlled violin that the United

PROSPECTS BRIGHT
FOR THE new TRAIN
". e. & st. l.. Officials Confer Thurs
day With Local Business Men

n conference between the business
men OF Hickman and the officials of the
", I. ~ ST. l.. railway was held Thurs
day afternoon TO work out some plan hy
which better train service between
hickman and Hollow Rock junction
might be had. The conference was held
in the directors room of the Hickman
| Bank & Trust CO., beginning at three
o'clock
H. f. Smith. first vice-president of
the railroad, Cbas. Barham, general
freight agent, w. /. Lightfoot, general
passenger agent, w. II. Wharton, as
sistant freight agent and J. G. Gallo
way, passenger traffic agent, represent
ed the railroad at the conference. They
arrived Thursday afternoon in a pri-
vate car, leaving Friday morning
good representation of Hickman
business men was present, in fact, many
were turned away owing to the size
of the room in which the conference
was held. Vice-President Smith acted
as chairman of the meeting and called
on various business men of the CITY.
who plainly stated the need that Hick-
man had for the incoming morning
train and outgoing night train. Each
phase of the subject was carefully dis
cussed by the railroad officials and the
local men.
Following a suggestion of some of the
Hickman men present, Mr.. Smith stated
that, owing to the fact that a new train
added TO those which were already run
ming on this division would be a certain
loss, an experiment would probably be
made of replacing one of the trains
already running with the new service.
The train which would be taken off
would be the one leaving Hickman at
30 a. IN. and the one arriving at AS
p. m, the one replacing it to run on
a schedule for its arrival at z :45 a. M,
and departure at .: 80 p. m. This ex-
pertinent he said would probably be
made if other towns along the line
would agree to IL.
1t is to be hoped that this experiment
Will be made, If ii is not possible to add
the new train without taking off either
of those now running. as the train SER
vice on the N, G. & st. L. to and from
Hickman is in reality detriment
rather than of any benefit whatever to
the city. From the expressions given
by Mr.. Smith and the other officials of
the line the probability is that we shall
soon have the new train although we
may have to lose one of the others.

'LIBERTYS ADVANCE
In HEAVY TURNOVER
All U. s. War Issues Except
Third 4 las Make New Highs
Market Active.

Fundamental Improvement in the
money situation, with banks unable to
lend anywhere near the quantity of
time funds that they desire to put
out. resulted yesterday in surpris-
ingly large upturn in the Liberty bond
market. Standard bonds of all Sorts
were in demand. with the floating sup
ply scarce. but the Government bonds
were most prominently in popular re-
quest.
The Fourth AZ per cent. Liberty bonds
touched the new high OF $3.50. which
is just $16.20 more than the record low
quotation of sS2 for the largest of the
war issues. Victory AIS made new
high at 10O.1s. while the 311s rose to
9S. in contrast to $3.50, the 1921 high. In
fact, all Government issues made new
highs except the Third 4as which
touched $3.50. The following table

serve bank of $S6. 500. 900 and total of
United States Government securities
owned of $11s,172. 1875. While none of
these Government securities has been
sold, it is understood that the amount
borrowed from the reserve bank has
been reduced more than one-third
through repaid loans as a result of
liquidation. A leaf out of the First
National Banks book has been taken
by the National Bank of Commerce and
others and the result of the rise in the
price of Government bonds since the
first of December has given such in

N. Y. Loan oner to Montevideo.

MoNTEvrpEo, Uruguay. Jan. IL (AsJo-
ciated Press).-A group of American
bankers representing the National City
Bank of New York has offered The
Uruguayan Government a loan OF
IS, 1000, 900 to s1O.000.000 with which 70
purchase the British owned water works
company of Montevideo. The company
has offered to sell the plant for f2.000.-
900. which at the present rate OF ex-
change amounts to more than 12.000.000
Uruguayan pesos. The pound sterling
is relatively lower in price than the
American dollar, and the Uruguayan
Government. by negotiating loan in
the United States and paying the pur-
chase price to the British company, will
gain considerably.
The conditions of the loan are under
stood to be the same as those of the
recent fiotation of s7.500,000. The sale
price of the water works Is less than the
actual value of the properties, according
to the appraisal of the National Techni-
cal Department.
Inquiries at the National City Bank
here failed to confirm the Montevideo
message.

There were yesterday reports that the
Government was a buyer of it's own out
standing bonds, but such buying was not
needed to account for the RISE New
York city has been flooded by outside
institutions with funds to loan on call
and time and it is natural for such in
stitutions failing to find a demand fo.'
their funds to invest it in Government
securities. The fundamental factors
favor such investments, as bankers be-
lieve that the Governments will not st Do
rising until par be reached.
Consequently investments in the Gov
ernments are favored because in case of
necessity advantage can be taken of the
upward trend Thus the countrywide
thawing of the credit situation is being
felt in the Government bond market.

sity for a city hall. The plans for
these buildings might we'll be the first
task of the city planner, and the most
obvious one. don't know how long it
would take to get such plan, but for
the start Of it, the civic center itself,
it seems to me it would not take an
unreasonable length of time.
"The council at it's last meeting took
q step towards the securing of a plan
by empowering the president of the
council to choose a commission. No
time will be lost There will be on
that commission people who love the
city and county Of Kenosha, people who
live here and work here, representative
of every group, not people who will
beautify one section and let the rest
of the city go.
There will be no cost to the county
board in making this plan The atty
will pay the cost. But the initial cost
will be paid for many times over in
the result. Other towns have made
mistakes that it has taken a mint of
money to correct; we hope by small
outlay at the beginning to guard
against such errors.

STILLsIN LOVE
WITH MAX 0SER
Friends Of Miss Mccormick Brand as
False Reports That Oser Ro-
nance is Broken.
(By Associated Press Leased Wire,


Chicago, Ill. - There is no estrange-
ment between Mathilde Mccormick,
daughter of Harold F. Mccormick and
Max Oser, Swiss riding, master, and
absolutely no foundation for reports
that any cablegrams from Oser had
been ignored, it was declared today by
Howard W. Colby, intimate friend of
the McCormicks.
Miss Mccormick left her home early
this morning with Mr.. Colby to spend
the morning learning to drive an au-
tomobile. Later she and Mr. Colby
went horseback riding through Lin
coin park While following the sport
which he fancee had taught her, Miss
Mccormick made positive denial that
she had broken with Oser and declar-
ed the marriage was definitely set for
June.
81 love Max Oser more than anybody
else in the world and I'm going to mar
ry him." was the statement Mr.. Colby
gave out, speaking for Miss Mccormick
miss Mccormick and her father, Har-
old F. Mccormick, will sail for Europe
early in June and the wedding will
take place soon after their arrival in
Switzerland.
"There is absolutely no truth to the
stories that Miss McCormick's and Mr..
Oser's engagement has been broken"
Miss Mccormick has been in America
several months after spending most of
her life in Switzerland. She has ex-
pressed keen desire to return, Mr..
Colby said.
"Miss McCormick's interest in AM
erica is not as great as in Switzerland"
said Mr.. Colby, "and she has shown no
interest in the American things we
have introduced her to-"
Mr.. Colby said that SO far as he
knew cables had been exchanged reg
uIarly between the riding master and
Miss Mathilde.
