"Isn't It awfully early, dear?" said
Helen as Warren roused her.
"Well we want a good start," he
explained, "and I thought you wanted
to see about the lunch."
"I do, but that will only take a few
minutes. I have everything ready and
all I have to do is to make the coffee."
"Is Nora up?" Warren questioned.
"She hasn't come home from
church yet," said Helen, who was
bustling around. "Would you like the
coffee iced, dear? It feels as though
it were going to be a hot day."
"You might ice one bottle and have
one hot," said Warren, as usuai not
stopping to consider the extra trouble,
and Helen smiled to herself as she
went out into the kitchen to see if
the kettle was boiling. Nora had
everything ready to start breakfast as
soon as she returned, and as Helen
was finishing the sandwiches the key
turned in the lock and Nora came in
quickly.
"Oh, Mrs. Curtis," she began, "I'll
attend to everything; you go in and
dress," and Helen relinquished things
gladly and went into her room to fin
ish dressing.
"I'll just have a cup of coffee," said
Warren, who had finished dressing,
"and then I'll go down to the garage
to see if everything is all right."
Before she was ready to snatch
something herself she heard the door
close and knew that Warren had left.
Helen felt very happy this morning.
She was feeling well and this was
their first long trip In the car. They
were going to take a picnic lunch and
go off in the country for the day. It
was so different from the way they
generally spent their Sundays, and
Helen could not help thinking to her
self how different Warren had been
lately.
"Have the asparagus for dinner.
Nora." she said, "with the cream
sauce, and roast one of the chickens.
You made the ice cream, dldh't you?"
"Yes, ma'am, strawberry."
"That's fine; I guess they'll enjoy
their dinner."
'Everything's ready now, Mrs. Cur
tis; Is there anything more?"
"No, Xora, there isn't another
thing, and than you for helping me."
Helen finished her breakfast and
went back to her room. She got out
her steamer coat and tried the effect
of a new black and white sport hat.
Then she was ready and she sat down
to wait for Warren. The sound of
the horn down below made her run
to the window, but it was not their
car. and Helen sat down before the
open window and skimmed over the
papers.
"There you are, dear," sbe said as
the door opened and Warren came in.
"You must have come up very quiet
ly, I never heard your drive up. Is
everything all right?"

"No, it isn't,"Warren growled; "had
a flat tire Just as I was dViving out
of the garage."
"That's a shame," said Helen sym
pathetically. "But it'B early and we
have the whole day."
Warren growled out something
from the bedroom and then called:
"Have you seen anything of my
gloves ?"
"I thought you left them in your
coat."
"Here they are," he said crossly.
"Are you ready?"
"All ready. Warren. Will you take
the box? I'll carry the coffee."
They went down in the elevator,
and as they arranged things in the
car and Warren climbed in and they
were off Helen was almost exuberant
with a combination of the morning
and the car.
A Little Journey to New Roohelle
"Where are we going?" she said
happily.
Warren was flushed from bending
over to adjust somehing and an
swered her abruptly.
"Up to New Kochelle."
"Do you think Bob and Louise will
meet us?"
"Sure; that's why we're going
there."
They whizzed along through the
warm Spring air, and Warren's spir
its rose with the distance they cov
ered.
"They have a surprise for you,"
he said, above the rush of the wind.
They reached New Kochelle about
10 o'clock and made their way down
to the water's edge. Helen asked no
questions as they got out and made
their way down to the pier of the
hoathouse Bob shouted to them and
Louise came running- up.
"Come on." she said; "you don't
know about it, do you ?" and then as
Helen followed her idown, "you're
not the only ones who can be sporty."
Bob was fussing over a long, grace
ful boat that lay in the water. The
sun sparkled on the shining wheel and
the engine emitted little snorts and
puffs as though anxious to be off. .
"Isn't it a stunner?" said Louise
enthusiastically.
"Yours?" said Helen incredulously.
"Ours," said Louise decidedly, "and
we're going to cruise along the sound
and take you with us. Isn't it a great
plan?"
"That's why we started so early,"
vouchsafed Warren.
"Are you surprised?" said Bob.
"Am I surprised?" said Helen. "I
feel as though 1 had suddenly become
a member of the four hundred. What
wonderful times we ought to have."

A FASHIONABLE SKIRT.
A New Model Especially Suited t<
Flouncing and to Bordered Stuffs.
By MAY MANTON
'''' I^'
8574 Straight Gathered Skirt,
24 to 32 waist.
New fabrics are being shown in a really
exquisite variety of borders and they aro
especially appropriate for straight skirts.
This one can be joined to a yoke or ex
tended to the waist line as may be pre
ferred. It is full, according to the latest
requirements, and it takes extremely
graceful and pretty lines. The yoke is
cut to the slightly raised waist line, but
when the skirt without the yoke is used,
it can be finished either at or above the
normal line. In one view, it is
made of flouncing, in the other, of
plain material, and the latter is just
as pretty as are the bordered fab
rics. The straight lower edge also
allows of a hem-stitched finish, and some
of the new cotton and linen fabrics are
exceedingly dainty finished in that way.
Also cotton fabrics show a great many
brocaded or broch£ effects, and
such are always especially desirable for
simple models. A brocaded crepe would
be charming with a hem at the lower edge
sewed by hand and with stitches as nearly
invisible as fjjssible.
For the -»*;lium size will be required
3*4 yds. of material 27 or 36 in. wide, 2? g
yds. 44, or 2 '4 yds. of flouncing 44 for the
skirt without yoke; 2H yds. of flouncing
36 in. wide, with yd. of plain
material 36 for the skirt with yoke.
The pattern 8574 is cut in sizes from
24 to 32 inches waist measure.
It will lie mailed to any. add
ress by the Fashion Department of
this paper, on receipt of ten cents.

SIGLER CO. CLOSES
$125,000 CONTRACT
[Continued fwm First l'age.]
Is known as the "adaptable action,"
the original product of the company.
Mr. Bard announces that several
other smaller contracts have been
closed up with dealers throughout
the East and Middle West, since the
company has moved into its big new
factory, recently completed.
The new factory has been entirely
gotten in shape for the accommoda
tion of an output exceeding 5,000 ac
tions per year. There has been some
delay, Mr. Bard says, in filling orders
on account of the enormous amount
of work necessary in getting the many
departments systematized and equip
ped. However, this work has now i
been completed and the plant has
been running day and night complet- j
ing some special work on tilling or- ,
ders which had been held up, and in
making up some new sample actions
to be shipped to the piano manufac- !
turers' convention which is being held .
in Chicago this week.
C. M. Sigler, president of the com- |
pany, left last Friday for Chicago, ,
where he will exhibit to the manu-, j
faeturers of pianos the many fine 1
features of the Sigler piano player. j
The Sigler Piano Player Company's
line now consists of three separate
and distinct types of piano player ac
tions. The original action was what
is known in the piano trade as an
"adaptable" action—that is to say it
can be installed In any ordinary
piano in the customer's home,
regnrdless of the size of the
piano, without damaging the
piano case or changing its appear
ance. This is said by experts in the
trade to he the most unique and per
fect piano player in the world, and is
Ta-pidlv putting Harrisburg tin the
map as a manufacturing center of art
products.
Another type of action made by the
Sigler riano Player Company is what
is known in the piano trade as a
"single valve" action. This type of
action is preferred by many player
piano manufacturers. The latest ad
dition to the line is a "double valve"
player action, which has produced
very favorable comment from the
fact that it is built along entirely new
linos and is bound to meet with a
wonderful demand from manufac
turers who perfer this type of action
to the "single valve."
Mr. Bard, the factory superintend
ent and inventor of all the Sigler
actions, is a great admirer of Harris
burg. Since coming here some three
years ago he has built himself a home
in Paxt&ng and become an enthusi
astic Harrisburg booster. He says the
facilities here for manufacturing are
ideal for many reasons: Its distribut
ing facilities, its excellent climate,
its location with regard to the piano
manufacturers, and the ease with
which skilled artists are procured and
induced to make Harrisburg their
home. Mr. Bard says he is particu
larly impressed with' the ease with
which workmen can secure homes 111
Harrisburg and with the close knit
transportation facilities which enable
men to get home to their meals with
out spending half their day on the
street cars, as in New York and other
large centers of population.
Mr. Bard also said that while he
lias brought quite a few special me
chanic! here from other cities, that it
is his intention and preference to em
ploy local people wherever possible.
At the present time the factory force
is composed of about 60 per cent,
local workmen, most of whom have
been trained to the work by the com
pany.
The factory is divided into various
departments, among them being the
bellows making, action, spool box,
mill room, varnishing, tuning, in
stallation room, and packing. The
heads of these departments in their
order are as follows: Mr. Kaminsheff,
H. E. Aughinbaugh and Harry Lang
letz. Roy Cain, Alfred Stokey, W. H.
Brown. W. N. McKinney, Joe Norton
and Albert Alleg.
l>o You Think She Should Yote?
One of the interesting features of
the factory (organization is 'that a
woman is acting as inspector in the
action making room. It is Mrs.
Charles E. Bard, wife of the super
intendent, who has been trained in
the work by Mr. Bard himself. Mrs.
Bard is a great enthusiast, and Mr.
Bard claims that it was directly due
to her influence, skill and encourage
ment that many of the finer points
of the actions have been worked out.
The offices are under C. W. Prosser,
of Steelton. He came to the Sigler
Company from the offices of J. C.
Shumberger, the expert accountant.
Charles C. Stroh is the company's at
torney.
The growth of the Sigler Piano
Player Company has really been sur
prising lo businessmen and manufac
turers throughout the city. It had
its inception less than two years ago,
when Air. Bard was associated with
M. Sigler's piano store, 30 North
Second street. The first experiments
on the Sigler "adaptable" action were
conducted in the repair shop of the
Sigler piano store, and when they
were found to be successful, Mr. Sig
ler began the manufacture of ttye ac
tions in the Forney Building, 426-428
Market street. The business so rap
idly outgrew its orders that it was
found necessary to organize a com
pany and to erect a factory. Accord
ingly, last June the Sigler Piano
Player Company was incorporated
under the laws of Pennsylvania with
a capital stock of $6,000, with
C. M. Sigler president, Mr. Bard vice
president and John W, Thompson as
treasurer. I-ater in the year it was
again found necessary to increase the
capital stock and it was increased
to SIOO,OOO. Instead of the three di
rectors, under the reorganization a
board of live dierctors was elected,
which is as follows:
C. M. Sigler, president; Charles E.
Board, vice-president; John W.
Thompson, treasurer; William Graup
ner and C. H. Balr, directors. Mr.
Graupner is of the well-known
Graupner family, which has many
business interests throughout the city
and at the present time Is erecting
a big bakery at Tenth and Market
streets. Mr. Balr is a big cigar man
ufacturer. Mr. Thompson, until June
of last year, was engaged in the bar
ber supply business. C. M. Sigler has
been one of Harrishurg's leading
businessmen, being identified with the
piano trade< here for the last twenty
live years. Mr. Bard has been in the
piano and pipeorgan business for
many years, being first in the retail
and later in the manufacturing ends
of the game. He has been identified
with some of the leading dealers and
manufacturers in the country, among
whom are the Aeolian Company of
New York, Jardine & Sons of New
York, and the Peloubet Company.
Mr. Peloubet and Mr. Bard for many
years were experimenting on various
types of player actions, both for the
piano and the plpeorgan, Mr. Bard
specializing on the piano player end
of the business, and Mr. Peloubet on
the plpeorgan end. Mr. Bard came
to Harrlsburg to take charge of the
repair department of the Sigler store,
where the "adaptable" action was
worked out.
Officials of the company have re
ceived a telegram from Mr. Sigler
at Chicago, stating that he Is at the
Auditorium Hotel, where his exhibits
are being shown to the manufacturers
and that the samples are attracting
more than favorable comment.
The product of the company will
be shown at Chicago during the con
vention and from there Mr. Sigler
will visit all the piano manufacturing
centers In the United States.
