About the first publie use of the figure was on m poster where the tire man was shown holding a goblet contatsing broken glass, horse shoe nalts and other terrors of the road, evidently in the act of proposing a toast, the worfing being “Nunc est Bibendum™ which is Latin for our more familiar expression (before pro- hibition) of “Here's How.” From that time forward the Michelin man was known abroad as Bibendum, this name being considered approprinte, decanse Michelin advertising bore the message that Michelin “arank” or absorbes the shocks of the read, and also such obstacles as bits of tron, broker stones, and so on. ‘The roles governing the present contest are very simpie.

He said: “The AMPICO piano made remarkable reproductions of the characteristic interpretations of these pian- ists. At times the pianist would stop playing; the AMPICO would go on asif he were not idle. Then the pianist would again take up the wondrous tale. In some instances the reproduction of the whole composition was identical with the original; in other instances the AMPICO surpassed what had gone before, and thus did justice to the pianist when he had fallen below his . own standard. Especially noteworthy was the reproduction of the many charming nuances. Not for a moment was there any suggestion of rigid, inflexible, purely mechanical mimicry. The reproductions were as free, elastic, spontaneous as though a gifted mortal were the performer.” HEAR THE INCOMPARABLE e Am pico With three Artists appearing in person Horace Palmer Wells______.Tenor May Ryan Fox ______________Pianist Della Hoover Francis Violinist AT THE NEW HIGH SCHOOL AUDITORIUM JUST ARRIVED shipment of Ladies’ Silk Sweaters ors and styles, trimmed in fringe, silk, Astrakhan and contrasting silk jersey.
