women, our sincere gratitude for the
confidence expressed in this wonder
ful man by nominating him as the
candidate of the party for the presi
dency.
"We entered this campaign with
considerable reluctance because Sena
tor Harding did not desire to make a
high-powered organization campaign
for the presidency. Our plan, as is now
well known, was carried out whereby
we conducted rather a modest cam
paign and left the election to the re
publicans of this country without too
much pressure.
we have, throughout the cam
paign, had the highest respect for op
position candidates and for their sup
porters. At no time have we made
any attack upon any candidate or
upon any candidate's supporters and
Senator Harding will receive the sup
port, no doubt, of every man and
woman in the country who desires to
vote the republican ticket. The ticket
will be elected overwhelmingly in
November."

With your sterling Americanism and
long public and executive experience

election and confidence in a great

Westerman appeared to have little
trouble In beating the runner-up yes
terday, the latter being slightly off
his usual game. The local junior
champion will probably be sent to

This instrument is so miraculous and so amazing that words are
futile to convey the story from one who has heard it to one who
has not.
To those who attended the recent concert at which Ornstein
played so superbly, it was evident that the AMPICO'S reproduction
of his playing was indeed ORNSTEIN. r '
In reproducing the playing of RACHMANINOFF, it is RACH
MANINOFF. The recorded playing of LEVITZKI is LEVITZKI. It is
equally true of any of the hundred or more pianists whose art is
preserved for all time by this wonderful instrument. Nothing that
the artist does when making the record escapes the AMPICO which
catches and preserves it for its perfect reproductions.
THIS WONDERFUL INSTRUMENT BRINGS INTO THE HOME
ALL THE MUSIC YOU LOVE BEST BEAUTIFULLY PLAYED
for the greatest pianists in the world- play it for you and it is
always there to be heard whenever you wish.
A cordial invitation is extended to all music lovers to hear the
