That's the official cognomen. But
the hundreds of thousands who have
sat spellbound by the wond'rous
music OF these warrior-bandsmen
know them as just plain
Ninety.First Kilties Band.
And certainly they have held nearly
the world spellbound. From coast to
coast in Canada and in the United
States they have travelled. And when
war clouds drifted this way they
called off engagements and led their
outfit to Europe in a blaze of musical
glory.
All Michigan will again have an
military band, for Secretary-Manager
George w. Dickinson of the Michigan
State Fair has announced that the
Ninety-nrst Kilties will appear there
for eight days, playing their inspiring
music at afternoon and evening con-
certs.
I'VE feel, 4" Mr.. Dickinson said,
s'that an exposition so great as the
$5,000,000 Michigan State Fair should
have nothing but the best, for 1t is a
state institution and the state must
be well represented; further we know
1t Is our duty to have only the best in
music, fine arts and the other beauti-
full things of life for the legions Of
citizens who travel from far and near
to be guests Of the state
Il believe that 1t is due largely to
this determination to constantly i'm
prove the Michigan State Fair that
has been responsible largely for its
unparalleled success and growth"
The Ninety.First Kilties Band,
which comes from Hamilton, Ontario,
is composed of selected artists who
dress in the picturesque kits of the
Highlander. 1t has played in more
than 500 cities and towns in the
United States, Canada and England.
II has been one of the leading fea-
lures at many big exhibitions.
While overseas the Ninety-first
Kilties was appointed Canadian staff
band by Sir Sam Hughes, then minis
ter of militia and defense. 1t played
before the king and queen of Eng
land, other members of the royal
family, cabinet officers and prominent
civil and military leaders.

National Movement To Come To Climax During

NEW YORK, July 2s-(By Asso- ciated Press.)-A change in the dates of National Father and Son Week, so as to have the observance center each year around Armistice Day, Is indorsed by President Hard ing In letter received at the New York offices of the international committee, Y. M. c. A, which orig mated the observance In 1917 and whose boys work committed con tinues to lead its promotion.
 The change from the week of Lin coln's birthday, used for the purpose of the observance until this year, has been made in response to the desire of national and international Sunday school organizations. The Presidents letter follows:
 National Movement.
 My attention has been called to the National Father and Son Move- ment, which Is to be launched during National Father and Son Week, No- vember 11-1S. It Is a great pleasure for me to commend this movement, which has as its objective to draw together in & more intimate way the fathers and sons of America, and to strengthen and develop this relation ship.
 'The success of this movement during the past years has won for it distinct place. Since the move mont has become world wide in char acter. 1t Is most fitting that 1t center around the date of worldwide sig nificance, Armistice Day. Surely, the coming generation will need to be constantly reminded of their obli- gation to help maintain the peace of the world, for which millions of fathers and stns have died in past years.
 Ut Is hoped that all individuals as well as constructive agencies, in terested in the boy life of our na- tion, will give this week due>consid- eration and recognition by bringing together fathers and sons in schools, churches. clubs and other places, and assisting the boys of the coin munity to their own inherent right Of companionship with their fath- CTS"

FRANCE LAND OF EXTRAS
Hotel Keepers Put As Many Into The Bill As They Can Devise

Hotel Keepers Put As Many Into
 The Bill As They Can Devise
 One of the recommendations maoe at the congress of hotel keepers at Blois was that they should put up their prices in a public place, so that the visitors should not at the end or his visit go away thinking he had been cheated.
 This has already been done In the case of restaurants, greatly to the advantage of the travelling public, but at French hotels the foreigner, In particular, more often than not finds that he or she has to pay great deal more than was antlci- pated. In America, there are eitner good hotels or there are not, and the majority of people go to the good hotels and pay an equally good price for them. But there the matter ends. There are no extras for baths. There is as much electricity and not water as the visitor can want; sne can even take her little electric stove and cook with the hotel elec- tricity in the hotel bedroom.
 France is the land of extras. The French do not like paying, and so the hotel keeper divulges the price of the room and then proceeds 10 aod to it as many extras as he can de- wise. There is, in Paris at least. the extra 10 per cent for service, which most people accept with relief, until they find that tips are expected after all. and that they are really helping officially as well as unofficially. In some hotels there is extra for heat ing. ,. l.. the case of the transient client are mt on at the end of his bill, Instead of being included in the price Of the room as indicated to him when he arrives. Wine prices are not always set forth clearly, and he often finds that he has more to pay than he possibly imagined.
 Eurther. there are hotel keepers who admittedly charge according to the look of their client, with the re- suit that foreign visitors, very often Ignorant of French, take it for granted that they are going to be chssted and French hotels are ac- cordingly unpopular with them.- From the Manchester Guardian.

 But he has slipped in quietly, un- heralded by trumpet or drum; he has installed himself in our midst at his ease and in true British comfort, you may be sure. It has been a peaceful occupation. Moreover, since he evil dently feels that he Is here for long stay, he has not been satisfied with hotel, no matter how Anglicized it may be, but has built himself a per- nianent dwelling.
