BOUUMIR KRYL
A TRUE BOHEMIAN
Bolimnir Krjl the cornet soloist of
the Four Great Stars who has played
on two continents with a success on each
only equaled by his prosperity on tho
other is a Bohemian by birth Any one
could tell that by his use of tho English
language or rather his misuse for he
has not been long in this country and
his English is noarly as much broken as
the best tea set a week after the new
Irish maid was employed But you
dont need to know English in order to
play tho cornet Bohemia must be a
pretty musical place it seems and Mr
Kryls native town particularly so as it
has had the honor of producing not only
Bohumir Kryl but those other Bohem
ian artists Jan Kubelik and J Cocian
