i a blow at Joe Maldono
"To the works," said Jerrj to his
chauffeur, and arrived at his desk at
, about 11 o clock, where he found a-
i rlous matters demanding his attention
One was a new set ot specifications from
the Government for cutting tools for the
AVatenllet Arsenal Another was a
, hurry older from an arms manufacturer
at Urjdgeport, working on a war con-
r tract There was a teport front the
chemist on the new process steel and a
, report from the testing shops as xvell
. The two were contradictory The tools
from the new steel did not perform as
1 the chemist's report Indicated they
J Bhould. This necessitated conference
ind re-examlnatlon of the whole sub
ject. Jerry was feeling xery fit this morn

PIANOLA-PIANO
In tonal qualities the Stroud is noteworthy
it is so mellow, so rich, so "full."
Furthermore, it is superior to any other
player-piano because it contains the 300 exclu
sive patented features of the genuine Pianola.
The two most important of these features are
the Themodist, which emphasizes the solo of a
composition, and the Metrostyle, which gives the
correct interpretation of the selection.
Yet because of its price any who love good
music can have the Stroud in their home. $650 is
the price and liberal weekly payments as low as
$3 will be arranged if desired.
Come in to hear, the Stroud or phonfc or write
for catalogs and full particulars.
