M'CORMACK IN LOVE SON(iS Irish Tenor Will Not Confine Himself to Purely Classical Selections Here Those who go to hear John Me- ] Cormaek sing in the Chestnut street j auditorium to-morrow evening will hear him in many of the songs of love aud 1 heart interest that have made him fa- | mo us. The great Irish tenor does not | confine himself merely to the difficult j classical selections, although he will j render some of them. He is so gener- j ous with his encores that it might be j said that his extra numbers are really i the principal part of his program. He i sings only once every two days in or der that he may be able to give his j audiences the full benefit of his won- I dcrful voice and he delights to re»i>ond I to the appreciation that is always ac- j corded him by singing such old favor ites as " I Hear You CallinglMe," " Be- j lieve. Me If All Thy Endearing Young | < harms," "Trotting to the Fair" and t " Mother (Machree. One of his own favorites is "In j Fanaid's Grove," a selection he never fails to render when the opportunity affords. When one hears McCormack singing that rare old song he feels as though all the suffering and longing of Ireland, her fortitude in time of trial, her faith, her gladness ami her tears had conspired together in this son of the Gael to plead the cause of Inisfail with an eloquence beyond the power of oratory. So great has been the demand for I popular priced seats for the McCor mack concert in Harrisburg that the local management has arranged to place on sale 200 additional $1 seats and 200 additional $1.50 seats. Already there are indications that standing I room will be at a premium on the even ing of the concert and in order to avoil disapjtointment the management [ has requested that seats be purchased ] at the earliest possible moment. Adv* ADVERTISING LIKE MAGNET Truths as Expressed by Keystone Motor Car Company Mr. Robert L. Morton in speaking of the advertising done by the Key stone Motor Oar Company, says: "Our advertising is like a big mag-' net. It draws from the great mass of; people the person who is interested enough to send us an inquiry or to come to our sales rooms to look at our ears. It is the individual we desire to reach and we find our medium of pub-1 licity successful. The first thing in j selling an automobile is to have an in-| terested prospect; second, the car to) please and satisfy, followed with in -1 telligent courtesy which costs you noth- j ing, but brings big returns."

M.—Herbert C. llocfvcr, chairman of the American-Belgian relief committee, has arrived in Berlin for an important conference with the German govern ment. So important are these negotia tions that it may be said that upon them depend whether American relief measures in Belgium can be continued or not. With Mr. Hoover are Dr. Wiekliffe Rose and Ernest Bicknell, who have been investigating conditions in Bel gium and in Russiin Poland on behalf of the Rockefeller foundation and the American _Red Cross. These two Amer icans are in Berlin to consider the es tablishment of a relief organization for Poland. A condition to the under taking is the pledge of the German and the Austrian governments not to requi sition from the inhabitants any food stuffs whatsoever for the use of the Austrian and German armies in Poland. There is good reason to believe that these pledges will be given but if they are not the relief measures for Poland as at present planned will have to be abandoned. In the event that the two govern ments concerned assent to the propos al that they requisition no food-stuffs from the people grain cbuld be im ported into Poland from Rumania and the price would be comparatively low. If thj# plan,of relief for Poland suc ceeds an' executive committee will be established. MUSICAL DIRECTOR RESIGNS Professor T.
