most prominent musicians, wilt Inspect
today all of the pianos that arc to bo
sold under the drkln Brothers' co-operative
selling scheme that Is In vogue at
their establishment at present. Mr. Jones
will Inspect each and every machine for
tone, quality, action and touch.
Tho Orkin Brothers are now deep In
the plans of their co-operative selling
scheme and are preparing to sett to the
public Ih order to assure themselves as
well as their customers that the pianos
are all that both they and the martu
facturers say they are, Orklns haVe ar
ranged to have all the pianos Inspected
by a local man while the Instruments ore
on the-floor. Of course, all of the pianos
were inspected before they were shipped
to Omaha, but it Is possible that the
moving from the east to "Omaha may
have affected the playing qualities of
some one or two of tho" Instruments, and
If such Is the case the local' firm does not
want to sell the piano.
Mr. Jones will perform the Inspeotlon
Tuesday and It will probably occupy sev
eral hours' time In the morning.. When
he has completed his Inspection of each
Individual piano he wljl place an affi
davit on tho piano stating that the tone
quality, the aqtlon and the touch are all
in perfect condition, so that everyone who
purchases a piano will have Mr. Jones'
signed affidavit that the Instrument Is
as near perfect as It Is possible to
make Iti
Anybody is at liberty to inspect the
pianos themselves, but Mr. Robinson,
manager of the department, wishes to
assure the public that Mr. Jones Is recog
nised as a musician of more than ordi
nary ability and Is fully capable of pass
ing Judgment on any plana All of the
pianos are on the floor, so that every
body may see for themselves what they
are purchasing before they buy.
Mr. Robinson reports that the sale Is
more than satisfactory. "Tho public,"
said Mr. Robinson, "recognlres tha't the
sale Is unprecedented and is taking ad
vantage of the exceptional reduction In
price. We will movo every ono of the
COO pianos In an Incredibly short time
relatively short, of course, because pianos
are a difficult stock to move in a short
space of time."

j of Pnrsnlt U nod, Who Is
Every Tf here.
Dr. Leon D. Toung of Beatrice preached
at Lowe Avenue PresflyJerlan church

tural text from Psalms Ixtll:, "My soul
followeth after Thee.
Dr. Tounr. wno is Known as one of the
strongest Presbyterian ministers In Ne
braska, Is a pulpit orator of unusual
powers, but with a deep spiritual tone
dominating his preaching. With Impres
sive effect he followed his theme to Its
logical conclusion with a superb picture
of heaven as man's ultimate enchanting
pursuit.'
"Pursuit and possession constitute life,"
he said.
"The crusades were an enchanting pur
suit. The pilgrims pressed on to Jerusa
lem, not only to recover the sepulcher,
Itself, but for a deeper and richer pur
pose, for Christ had spent three days
and nights within the tomb and that
fact, not the mere possession of a sepul
cher, is what Impelled the crusades. The
reformation was an enchanting pursuit
and so was the" renaissance, and so Is
this great twentieth century enterprise
of missions It, like those great mass
movements of the soul before it. Is an
enchanting pursuit.
"The goal of the pursuit was God.
And whero shall we find Ood? We shall
find Him In the world within, In our
selves, and If We do not find Him there,
we shall not find Him anywhere..
"Man at his best," said Dr. Toung,
"touches God. But Is not God In the
world without? Yes, God Is everywhere,
but we must first find Htm In the world
within, to find Him In the world with
out." The minister drew a striking, picture of
God In the seasons spring, summer,
autumn, winter and all their typical
forms and attributes. In all nature, In
fact, and said "We can find Him there;
we can find Him In the masterpieces of
art, In the noble deeds of life, but more
than all In His word, the Bible and Its
exemplification In the world within and
then the world without"
