 GIVEN PRAISES f
Miss SandDerg. and MT
 Furjanic k Delight 7 Music Lovers

Appearing in a concert held 1T the Northern Light Presbyterian Church last evening, two visiting artists, Miss Gladys Sandberg, pian- ist, and MT. Nicolas Furjanick, vio- linist, gave what was acclaimed the finest musical program ever held in Juneau. They proved themselves musicians Of the highest rank and worthy of the ovation given them. The concert was sponsored by the Martha Society.
 The opening number on the pro- gram, a violin concerto by Men dslSsohn, perhaps the most beauti- ful and most popular in violinistic literature, was given with complete m stery by Nicolas Furjanick, young virtuoso, wherein he showed a skill of bow and overcame diff cult technical passages with ease. He possesses a glorious tone of rare quality and his interpretations re- veal marked originality and beau tiful understanding. Throughout the rest of his program he more than ever showed himself a true protege of old masters with whom he has studied abroad.

ROASTING OF COFFEE MORE IMPORTANT
 THAN THE BLEND
.Under-roasting and Over roasting Produce an Unsat-
 isfactory Flavor

It is a fact that two lots of coffee from the same blend can be given entirely different favors by differ ent degrees of roast. A delicious, uniform flavor in coffee depends upon uniform roast.
 Hills Bros. invented and patented Controlled Roasting process that roasts perfectly all the time. Hills Bros. Coffee always has the full charm of the flavor that Nature puts in the coffee berries.
 As the accuracy of the hour-glass depends upon an even, continuous flow .. "a little at a time ... so a perfect, uniform flavor is secured in Hills Bros. Coffee by Controlled Roasting-the patented process that roasts evenly, continuously C little at time. There is automatic control of heat-thereby eliminat- ing guesswork, which is the con- stant problem when coffee is roasted in bulk.
 Vacuum cans preserve the won derful flavor of Hills Bros. Coffee. Air, which destroys the flavor of coffee, is removed and kept out of these cans. Ordinary, "air-tight" cans won't keep coffee fresh. Order Hills Bros. Coffee today. Ask for it by. name, and look for the Arab trademark on the can.

vealed by Gladys Sandberg, who not only accompanied MT. Furjan- iclz in a most exquisite manner, but proved herself master of the key board, especially in the brilliant and difficult Rigoletto paraphrase by Verdi-Liszt. Her interpreta- tions were beautiful and sincere and her technique of sparkling bril- liancy.
 After the program the audience was reluctant to leave the hall, calling back with enthusiastic ap- plause the musicians who generous ly responded with several encores. All sincerely hope to hear them again. 8 #

MONEY CAME IS
 SLATED TONIGHT

 Manning or Junge will heave for the Bills, and Mclaughlin or T. Keaton for the Vets. The game will start as usual at 6:30 pm.
 President Karl Theile announced today that next Sundays game be- tween the Elks and Moose will be played at Douglas at the regular hour, 5:30 in the afternoon.
