The Savings Organization of the
Tenth Federul Reserve District has
just been informed by the Trensury
Department that the Secretary of War,
deciding that hand grenades converted
into savings banks should not be sent
broadcast tlnoughout the country, has
cancelled his arrangement to furnish
grenades to the Treasury Department.
A Ithough more than IIOO.OOO of these
greuades has been sold to the banks in
the Tenth District, the children who
have entered into the savings plan dur
iug their vacation, must content them
selves with Certificates of Appreciation
issued by the Treasury Depaitment for
their services. These certificates are
being prepared in Washington and will
be Issued by the Havings Organization,
The War Department gave its ap
proval of thogreuade distribution 8;v
eral weeks ago. Its recent decision
comes as a surprise but was evidently
made on account of complaints made
that the grenades might hecomo a
menace to the safety of children aud
families owing to the possibility of
again converting them luto dangerous
weapon'.

JEWELS of SOUND
in Cabinets of Exquisite Beauty
You know, of course, that so far as the reproduction of
music is concerned there is but one instrument which
RE-CREATES it with proven ability. That instrument is
The NEW EDISON
"77f Phonograph with a Soul"
the only invention which has successfully met the tone
test, the test of direct comparison with the living artist.
To achive this result cost 53.000.000 in experimental work.
But do you realize that the superiority of the instrument
is now reflected in the superiority of the case which con
tains it? With but two exceptions, each New Edison, no
matter what its price, is now encased in a period cabinet.
Built of thoroughly seasoned and selected genuine Ma
hogany or selected quarter sawed White Oak by craf rs
men whose pride in their work is apparent in its perfect
ion, these cabinets are masterpieces. We ask you to in
spect the display of Heppel white. Sheraton, Chippendale,
Jacobean. William & Mary and Eighteenth Century Eng
lish cabinets now on view in our store. They,, arc replicas
of those exhibited this month at the Hotel Commodore,
New York City.
