Somehow or other the piano
was delayed in transit and after
the orchestra leader failed to To-

piano manufacturer in New York
to ship him one by airplane. The
manufacturer picked out one OF
the prettiest little blue models
and sent it by fast truck to Nit

tored plane was waiting. The lit

and 3. roar OF the big motors, it
was off for Atlanta.
The aviator craWled back into
the compartment containing the
