If you wish a blues chord, there
are a set of blue spots indicating
the proper keys. For the morning
after feeling there are brown
spots. Other moods are properly
indicated with suitable colors. The
best part about the contraption is
the claim that you do not need to
learn to read music! Don't get one
if you are color blind!
OF course if one did not feel
quite up to learning the piano in
this manner, there is always the
alternative of using player-piano
or a photograph. The royal road
to music study is thanked with
signs indicating detourS and bear
ing the claims of the moronola
and other labor-Saving devices.
Owing to other official engage
mentS, the U. S. Marine Band will
not give the usual scheduled con-
cert tonight at the U. s. Capitol.
The U. S. Navy Band, Lieut..
Charles Benter conducting, will
give a concert tonight at 1880
o'clock at the band stand in the
Navy Yard.
In the field of popular phono-
graph records 1t has been hard to

"Alibi Baby" and "CarelesSly"

Guy Lombardo and his Royal
Canadians have recorded a recent
Victor release, "a Sailboat in the
Moonlight" and on the reverse
side Gone With the Wind" The
latter song is harbinger Of the
film based on the best-Seller novel
Of the Civil War. These are two
smooth dance numbers, with the
vocal refrain by Carmen Lom-
bardo.
From Billy Roses hit show,
"Aquacade," three songs are in

Copyright, 1897, by International News
Service
LONDON, Feb. 19.-Still dazzled
by his experience, Frederick E.
Fuller, of the Flatbush, Brooklyn,
Fullers, today told International
News Service how he and Mrs.
Fuller hob-nobbed with King
George, Queen Elizabeth, Queen
Mother Mary, and other members
of the Royal Family amid knives
and scissors of the cutlery exhibit
at the British Industries Fair.
Before Fuller, who is in the cut
lery business in New York, left
for his first trip to Europe, he
thought he might drop in and
have a spot of tea with the
King" How his joke practically
came true he tells himself:
"The Mrs. was standing in the
cutlery section of the fair and 1
was in the act of buying some
stainless steel carving knives
when / heard a big commOtiOn.
Turning around, / saw the
royal family at nearby stand!
The Mrs. and / stood looking at
them, almost breathIeSs. Then
saw Queen Mary look at us
and then speak to an attendant.
Next, to our astOnishment,
Queen Mary walked over to Mrs.
Fuller, smiled, and shook hands.
"'HOw do you dO?' she said.
7 am informed that you are
American buyers. / am very
glad to meet you here The
queen then turned to me and
shook hands and said, how do
you do?'
"My poor Mrs! She was
speechIess. All she could do was
smile.
Queen Mary then asked me
how business conditions in Amer
lea were. I told her we were get
ting along pretty well now.
Meanwhile, Queen Elizabeth
followed Queen Mary in greeting
the Mrs. and asked us both what
we thought of the cutlery display.
/ said I thought it was a fine
display.
"The Duke Of Kent then
stepped up and he also asked
about conditions. When l re-
peated that we were getting
along pretty well in America, he
said: I am very pleased to hear
it,

Several thousand young men
and women from all parts Of the

mands before Congress for an i'm
mediate appropriation of 500 mil

which headed for Washington in
an auto trailer rigged to resemble
a covered wagon.
Among the arrivals are group
of some $500 from New York, so
from Boston and Chicago each,
