The first and the latest of the Sousa marches are pictorially pre- sented in a painting by Paul Stahr, the young American artist, which com- memorates the third of a century tour of Lieut. Comdr. John Philip Sousa and his band. When Sousa, who had founded his fame as ‘“The March King” during his leadership of the United States Marine Band, launched a career for himself he decided to fea- ture in his programs a new march. The march was “The Liberty Bell,” and it was played throughout his first season, that of 1892 and 1893. The next sea- son Sousa wrote another new march, and the following season another, un- til the new Sousa march was eagerly awaited in all sections of America. And 8o it is that “The Liberty Bell” and “The National Game,” written 33 years afterward and the latest Sousa march, are presented together by Mr. Stahr. “The National Game"” is a base ball march, composed by Sousa at the in- vitation of Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis, high commissioner of or- ganized base ball, and is designed to be played as the official march of the base ball players at all base ball cere- monials. Its composition at this time particularly fitting, as the National ague is celebrating its fiftieth anni- sary. It will be played here in concert during the world series, when Sousa and his band appear in concert at the" Auditorium, Wednesday, Octo- ber 7. COLUMBIA—"Don Q."

Throughout the action of the story Doug has rare opportunity for the dis- play of his athletic prowess and feats of nimbleness and daring.

Let your eye follow your finger and you will see the lines of the pattern, but you can scarcely feel the place where the tiles neatly join. The colors are sharp and clear. On block patterns, the blocks are firmly set and are part of the whole. They will not loosen. All this means extreme care in the making— many tests, many inspections. The reason you find buyers of Armstrong’s Linoleum always satisfied is that so many pains are taken to make Armstrong’s Linoleum “perfect.” Is Armstrong’s Linoleum really perfect?
