Chernoff ‘Wins Pin for Life Insurance Record The Fitch-Jones company on West Main street is displaying in its win- dow a pin presented by the Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance Co. to Joseph M. Chernoff in recognition of his ex- cellent work during 1922. Mr. Cher- noff, who has been connected with the Phoenix Mutual for five years, was appointed district manager for that company a little over two years ago and is probably the youngest dis- | trict manager for any company in/ the state. He is a graduate of the| Life Insurance Salesmanship school of the Carnegie Institute, where his studies included actuarial work, cal- culation of premiums, functions of | life insurance, and principles of sales- manship. Mr. Chernoff has written | several articles on life insurance sub- | jects which have appeared in fhc Kastern Underwriter, one of the Il‘ad-* ing New York insurance magazines. | He is a New Britain man, havmg‘ acuired his education at the New Britain High school, later going to a | , business school. The pin, which is of | " solid gold, has the words in blue| | tempting to get a share of the do- London, Jan. 19.—The “Hohenzol- lern,” once the palatial pleasure yacht | of the former German emperor, fis| being fitted out as a trade ship by | the German government and will be | sent_on a cruise to the British do- | minifons. | News that the Germans were at- | minion trade, which is the backbone | of Britain's commerce, has caused | English merchants to fit out two ships for a similar voyage. The first vessel will be ready to | <ail by February 1. Soon after an- other ship will start around the world in the opposite direction in an effort to beat the German boat to its | goal. | The beautiful rose-pink furnishings | and elegantly appointed cabins of the ““Hohenzollern” have been torn out | to make room for stands that will display German goods. THE MIGHTIEST FALL. Sir Basil Thompson Reported Wallet | Stolen; But It Was Under His Pillow Newport News, Va., Jan. 19.—A hotel clerk here today held the solu- tion of a mystery presented to him | yesterday by Sir Basil Thompson, | former chief of Scotldnd vard. “I tell you, sir,” exclaimed Sir BI«II as he hastened for his train, “my pocketbook is gone; and I tell you there hasn’t been a soul in my room but myself.” A maid found the pocketbook neath the pillow on the bed used by 8ir Basil.

Thousands of sensitive music-lovers have never gurchased phonographs ecause, for them, record surface sounds spoil the music. Other thousands pa- tiently endure the ever- present scratch and scrape and try tooverlook it. Columbia’s already fa- mous discovery of a new and unbelievably quiet surface material for rec- ords has opened up a new epoch in phonograph plea- sure. Now you may buy records of the music you most delight in—the well- loved ballads, arias from the famous operas, the lilt and swing of dance music, songs of the violin, the surging harmonies of great orchestras — all noticeably free from ob- Jjectionable surface sounds. All of the Columbia Records out to-day are made with this wonder- fully quiet and pleasing new surface. As an example, we cite the latest song hit, “You Gave Me Your Heart.” In this tenor solo, sung by Edwin Dale, there’s sen- timent and setting, tune- fulness and tenderness in all their beauty, un- marred by dutrletinx ~ scratch or scra) Picture Without a Frame,” the selection on the other side, is equally attractive. Tear out this list and take it to a Columbia Dealer, Listen to any or all of these Columbia New Process Records. You, too, will acclaim them the smoothest, most quiet, most musical records you have ever heard.
