Jackson seemed worried ever the loss of the feeth, which he sald cost 35.

These in- clude Philadelphia, Boston and Chicago. At the Auditorium In Chicago the Ballet Russe will appear for two weeks. i It 18 because of its four leading dancers ana because of the strength of its ensem- ble that this ballet is regarded as supreme. | In the matter of scenery and costumes thelr performances can hardly help sur- passing anything America has known. | Leon Bakst is ‘the creator of -all fthe! scenery and costumes for all the twelve | productions in the . repertoire . of the organization. For ‘“Insclenerung’” Leon Baket is supreme, America has seen some isolated examples of his work. Now | it is to have opportunity to marvel at his masterpleces. EAGLES' MEMORIAL SERVICE, Rev. T.

My visit to your factory and the demonstration there given me of your unique sys- tem of pianoforte construction have convinced me of the ideally high standard you have set before you, while my experience with your pianos at my home, as well as on the*concert stage, has proved to me how completely you have attained that artistic ideal, Their beauntiful tone, which no adjective can adequately describe, and their in- spiring perfection ‘of mechanism, render them noble instrmments, worthy of the highest place in my esteem.
