The whole world knows that when Kreisler sets his fingers
to the bow of his violin he summons music of the rarest beauty.
And every Victor Record he makes is a page upon which is
engraved the brilliance, the magnetism, the dignity of his art. gjjpli
Haunted by the beauty of a forgotten theme of Beethoven's, tlllll
Kreisler has woven the melody into a glorious composition of
his own, and he plays it with alluring charm as his latest con
i '"if tribution to the Victor library of great music. All Kreisler's
poetry of feeling, his mastery of instrument, are here! And
every lover of the violin, every lover of lyric melody in its high
estate, will want this Victor Record. ISS^B

Kreisler s art requires the finest of violins—and the Victrola
is as much his instrument as the violin. He makes records
!—■— j| only for the Victrola because it expresses his art with unerring
truth. And this is the reason why practically all the world's .gplg|
greatest artists are Victor artists. i|^H
Go to your nearest Victor dealer today and have him play for you the new Kreisler

Harrisburg Rotary
Club Hears About
Plattsburg Benefits
"Plattsburg" was the subject of an
interesting talK by E. J. Stackpol?, Jr.,
before the Harrisburg Rjlary Club to
day at its luncheon at the Columbus
hotel. Mr. StacKpole has spent the
past two summers at Plattsburg
training camp and is enthusiastic in
his belief in it 3 practical benefits in
a physical anc mental way us well as
its value as an arm of the great pre
paredness program of the nation.
"Men of every walk of life are
thrown together, with no favoritism
tor anybody and 1 cannot think of
any influence more conducive to true
democracy than the associations at
Plattsburg. Those who attend learn
how to be good privates in the ranks
and then how to be officers. Men go
to camp pale and run down and they
come back physically rit and ready
for a winter of hard work."
Mr. Stackpole noted that in three
years the attendance from Harrisburg
at Plattsburg had increased from
nothing to 25 and made a plea for
more recruits next season.
