BACHMAN BAND
HAS HIGH GLASS
CREDEN TIALS
Press Clippings Bear Proof
That Exceptional Attrac.
ton Is Coming Here

Perhaps no musical organization
has ever come to Bismarck so we'll
supplied with high class credentials
and glowing testimonial as Harold
Bachman's Million Dollar Band
which will appear at the city audi
forum on Friday, October FL. Press
clippings and testimonials from all
over the United States, exhibited
by Myron Bachman, manager Of
the band, bear proof that an un-
usually high grade attraction has
been booked by the local Legion
post for the above date.
Among the more important places
where this band has played and de-
lighted thousands with it's spirited
music are the first national conven-
ton Of the American Legion in
Minneapolis, the Minnesota state
fair, Wisconsin state fair, Oklahoma
free state fair, Mississippi Alabama
fair at Meridian, Mississippi, ZOO
logical gardens in Cincinnati, trot-
ting races at Lexington, KY, the
Florida state fair, the .So'th Florida
fair at Tampa and three consecu-
tive years the Masonic exposition
in the Madison Square Garden in
New York city.
This is one of the few concert
bands in America whose entertain
ment is so diversified that it is also
in demand as a headline vaudeville
attraction. The Miller theatre in
Milwaukee, the Palace in Chicago,
keith's in Louisville, Keith's in
Pittsburgh, the Lafayette Square
in Buffalo, Schubert's Winter Gar
den in New York an dozens of
other vaudeville and la &c moving
picture theatres have featured Bach
mans Million Dollar Band, which
has been engaged for the past six
years in Florida in the winter time,
three years in West Palm Beach,
and has just now signed a contract
for it's third consecutive winter
season at famous Plant Park in
Tampa.
1t would take a book 10 reprint
all the newspaper comments that
have been written in praise Of this
excellent band. One particularly
flattering comment printed \ the
News in Milwaukee, regarding an
appearance in that city, was headed
by the caption Look Out, Sousa."
The Billboard, when reviewing the
bill at the Palace Music Hall in
Chicago when the 1achman band
was featured there, said, This band
is we'll worthy Of its place as q
headline attraction in big time vau-
deville,' while the Chicago Tribune
on another appearance gave the
band an entertainment classifica-
ton Of 30 per cent, q very high
rating for the conservative dra-
matte critics of that journal.

the Chamber points out.
"Overheating could be eliminated
if care were taken to have proper

cult. When too much current is being
used they blow, thus breaking the

Of the current until replacement has

higher capacity or even pennies and
other pieces Of metal are used for
this purpose. Such action is just

CARE IS URGED
IN WIRING WORK
Defective Electrical Installa-
tons Cost Public Much
in Fire Loss

Washington, u. c., October a.
Defective electrical installations and
improper use Of electricity cost the
American public more than $4,000
annually, the United States Cham
Der of Commerce points out, in a
statement issued today.
The widespread adoption Of the
National Electrical Code as the stan
dard for wiring has done much to
eliminate faulty installations, but
often additions or alterations which
arc made to electrical systems after
they have been approved do not al
ways conform to local requirements,
the Chamber says.
"Many electrical fires may be at
tributed to overheating caused by
excessive amounts Of current flow

raising the steam pressure.
Household electrical appliances
such as curling irons, coasters, press
ing irons, electric pads, electric
plate warmers and heaters are now
in general use. When operated in
accordance with directions, they are
not dangerous, but quite often the
users fail to turn off the current
and detach them from their sockets
when through using them. This re-
suits in overheating and has been
the cause of numerous fires.
"Arcing is often caused by short
circuits due to broken connections
and worn insulation. An example Of
this is the number of fires caused by
