appear so beautiful in his mind. AS
he reaches for them. he sees them dis
torted and grotesque, and is about to

to be repeated by request. Mr.. Tcherni-
koff will present two newly arranged
numbers, Harlequin" to music by
Goosens, and a March" of Tchaikow-

Richmond to the Indiana Ohio
state line, II to Dayton, 201 to
Brandt, 40 through Springfield, Co
lumbus, Wheeling, w. Va, to Wash
ington, Pa.
The most direct route from Wash
ington, Pa, is via U. s. 40, but
since this road is more subject to

Frederick, Md, and U. S. 240 to
Washington.
The distance is Gil miles. The road
