The extreme illness of Mrs. Dave
Myerson, Jr., in Asheville will be
learned of with sincere sorrow. Mrs.
Myerson, with her sister, Miss Blanche
Levy, has been in Asheville for several
weeks and it was hoped was gaining
sterength. Recently she contracted
measles and during her convalescence
“They were nervous and restless
—huddled in the dugout, waiting for the gray dawn that was to send them over
the top. I would wind the Grafonola, slip on the record of the ‘Humoresque’
—and as the soft, sweet, haunting strains floated out, I’d watch the grim faces
relax; and the tense mood pass.
“Again—in a shattered Belgian village—a group of American lads—truck drivers
going up to the front—would be caught and held by a tornado of shellfire. There
■was nothing to keep them occupied; to leave the hut was certain death—we’d
play band music on the Columbia, lively selections that would take their minds
off of the whine and screech of shells outside.
“We had 120 Columbia Grafonolas in our ‘farthest up’ huts. Over 300
Grafonolas and 5,000 records were in use in the Canadian area alone. They were
an important part of our equipment.”
* * * *
These extracts from a letter from Captain H. A. Pearson, Senior Officer,
Y. M. C. A., with the Canadian Expeditionary Force in France, paint vividly the
part played by the Columbia Grafonola in the grim events “over there.”
Captain Pearson, who was invalided last June, after being severely wounded when
his hut was destroyed by shellfire, writes, “Give your soldier tobacco; give him
music—”
Send some records to your soldier boy
There is a Columbia Grafonola in his Y. M. C. A. or Knights
of Columbus Army Hut. Anv Columbia Dealer will be glad lo
show you how to ship them safely.

ENJOYABLE ENTERTAINMENT
AT THE BASE HOSPITAL. <
One of the most enjoyable entertain
ments presented this season at the base
hospital was given one evening recent
ly when a 'group of patients and en
listed men from the division combined
their efforts in a vaudeville perform
ance. The affair was given under the
direction of Mrs. Jesse G. Ferren, of
Hartford, Conn., and was most suc
cessful.
Among those who took part was Cy
Meeker, who has been extremely pop
ular as an entertainer here this sea
son. His offering consisted of a num
ber of comic songs, and he received a
big ovation. Sergeant Harold Hum
phey of the base hospital.! played ;
number of piano solos which were well
received, and 'Miss Henrietta Donen of
Augusta, scored an instantaneous hit
with her charming voice. Privates
Green and Hornak created considerable
amusement by their black-face comedy
and Pinkham and Wheeler in a. sim
ilar line of entertainment were warm
ly applauded. Doyle Bugher of the
107th Field Artillery sang splendidly
and later in the evening Cy llecker was
again called forth for another song
One of the distinct hits of the even
ing was achieved by a Jazz Band from
the 103rd Ammunition Train. These
boys made a fine impression and their
selections were applauded uproarious
ly. These entertainments are held
every Friday evening at the base hos
pital and are attended by patients
nurses, officers and enlisted men on
duty at the hospital, and guests from
Augusta.

MAKING EFFORTS TO GET

A great effort was made this morn

is still hoped, although hardly expect
ed, that she will be able to address an

only is the flag flung out to the breeze
to advertise that the foodstuffs it
floats over is for the conservation ne
cessary in these strenuous times, but
it also carries the protection of th<
government, and a culprit found
poaching on a gaiden that carries a
war garden flag is an offender against
