French Army Band Veterans Are To Be Salem's Guests Ono of the big features of tho Fourth ; Liberty Loan was tho appearance of the French army band in many eastern cities, an organization of battlc-scarroo' veterans from the trenches. Vast sums wcro raised by thoir patriotic music Now that ieaco has been doclarod they hare been granted an cxtonsio; of leave by thoir govornnient in or der to make tour of America visitiir our important cities to further cement that onteitto cordiale (which has fw long existed between the sister repub lics. Many musicians wear soldier's uni forms, but there is only one baud whoso members not only are vcterais of the war, with medals for bravery under fire, but also musicians of the highest rank, graduates and pnzo-wis-' ners of the Paris Conservatory. It is said that a man eaa exprem truly only what ho has himself oxpei ionced. (ionsidor, then, the wild exul tation of ."La Marseillaise" blaring from the trumpets of heroes- of Franci or the splendid fire and rhythm of tip '8ambre et Mouse." which buttle niarch is the war-cry of tho Poilu. The French army band veterans have hoard tho tearing crash of shells; they know tho deadly vapors of poison gas they have felt the weight of Germany's gray-green lines; and have thrgwi them back; they have given themaelve to Franco, lioart and soul and body What they have seen and felt and dono is expressed in thoir incomparable musie, Captain Fernand Plolain, tho direct or, won these highest musical honors of tho European continent in ante bcl- lum days. In war time he was decor ated for bravery, for valor whilo lead ing his men to battle, And now he brings to us this organization of buttle scarred men of France, to show the "entente cordiale" between France and America It is an event of a lifetime to hear these heroes, and we arc fortunate in 00 -i t i.v..( them come to our citv. Jfa aaU hear them play the Mar Bpangled Banner with new interpre tation, feelingly and with reverence; we shall hear their soloists, nnd every man in the organization is capable of appearing as soloist on his particular instrument, and best of all. we shall catch the spirit of patriotic music thut has carried France through four years to victory, the spirit that ani mates the Marseillaise ''worth a mil lion men to the armies of France" as played by the meu chosen by France to perpctuato the national military mu sic of the war.

Stricrlv Modern $1 per Pay 100 Booms of Solid Coffort Only Hotel in Business District Automobile Is Passenger Not A Pleasure Car "Now that the war is over thero is a tendency on the part of a few indiv I uals connected witlf the nmnufacture, jsalo and uso of passenger automobiles, to resume the use of the term, "pleas- : ore car " when speaking of them, says F. 1. Delano of the iSulem Automobilo ! company, local dealer in C'iievrolets ! passenger Rtitomobles and trucks. "Nothing could be nioro" unjust or uiiliuthful than to connect the name pleasure' with as iudespousablo utility as the automobile has proven to be dur i ing the past four years, especially. It i is not a pleasure car, but a passenger lean, unit it tins never rigutiy quuiuieu I for such a misleading designation since I the early days of" use, when as an in I among the recent arrivals in Salem ! thing hithertofore used for traveling I purposes, it wa9 adopted by sonic who chose to make use of its utility purel I for pleasurable purposes. The same is true of railway coaches and steamships. (There are a certain number who always ' have and alwav will us them with re creative aims. Yet no one ever refers to even- a parlor car as a pleasure car or to a steamship as a pleasure boat. Then why label the automobile with such nn appellation I j "If the automobilo in spite of its I vf'.iity, was so high priced as to be with- ; . r!i -i-ii, h of only a vry limited num ber then it might "rightfully be regard ed as a luxury. The term 'qleasnre ier-r' might then Ih used with some mod lificr.tions. But such is not tho case. The ownership of automobiles is eonfin cd to no special class of people, small salaried clerk9 as well as men with trades own and operate them. I "In many instances they have been j the means to more economical and bet ter living, enabling their oivncis to live I in rural districts where rents and )iv ' iug is cheaper and yet reneh their place !of business easily every dny. The same ii9 true of the business man wno tins found the automobile an tnvi.iuable ; business assistant, actually saving him much in tune, energy and money. "A recent investigation into the use of automobiles in farming district's, re vealed the fact that the passeugor auto mobile is used ninety percent of the time for utility purposes." if PERSONAL !
