February 14, 1920 A Rooter for ‘‘ Uncle Walt” 0 Usi.reood & Undereood. Loro LevernutmMe—“ Prime MInisTER or Britis Inpustry” ORD LEVERHULME, who has LC been called “the Prime Minister of British Industry,” and whose en- terprises in Great Britain and this coun- try represent a capital of $500,000,000 and the service of 50,000 persons, has been traveling in the United States recently. That he is an ardent admirer of Walt Mason, whose exclusive prose poems in Juvce are enjoyed by our great family of readers, is apparent from the following just printed in the Emporia Gazette, “Uncle Walt’s” home town paper: Lord Leverhulme, whose homes are at The Hill, ithevtead Heath, N. W. and Thornton Manor, ‘on Hough, Cheshire, England, has written a “Walt Mason. The letter follows one whe has enjoyed your writings in Jupce many years, and who greatly admires your hilsophy, 1 had hoped to have seen you on this visit to America, and I wrote to the editor of Jupce askin him for vour address so that I might have the pleasure of callg upon vou. I have just received word from Jupce saying that you rarely visit New York, but he has given me your address in Emporia, "I am sorry I cannot get to Emporia, vise nothing would have given me greater re than to have done so, if you could have accorded me the courtesy of an interview. “| admire your philosophy. and wish there were sane thinkers upon the every-day affairs of life along the tines of your philosophy. “With sincere regrets that I shall not have the pleasure of seeing you, and hoping to have the pleasure of reading your contributions to Jupce for many years to come, “Yours sincerely, “Leversutae.” more Heroes By Cuer Snarer HEROES are extraordinary entities that stand out from the rabble like a mole on an alabaster neck at a dinner party. In the past heroes were knighted. Or they posed before sculptors. Nowadays they go into vaudeville or sign advertisements for a new hair restorer. The heroes of 856 A. D. were awarded the beautiful princesses. The heroes of 1920 are filmed for the weekly review of cur- tent events shown before an audience that is I'll Teach You Piano To persons who have not pre- viously heard of my method, this may seem a pretty bold statement. But I evil gladly convince you of its accuracy by referring you toany number of my graduates in any part of the world.

Investi-ate os writing for my 64-page free booklet, “How to Learn Piano or Organ.” My way of teaching piano or organ is entirely different from all others. Out of every four hours of study, one hour is spent en- tirely away from the keyboard— learning something about Har- mony and The Laws of Music. This is an awful shock to most teachers of the “old school,” who still think that learning piano is solely a) problem of “finger gymnastics.”” When you do go to the keyboard, you ac- complish twice as much, because you understand what you are do- ing. Within four lessons I enable you to play an interesting piece not only in the original key, but in all other keys as well. I make use of every scientific help—many of whi are entirely unknown to the av age teacher. My patented in- vention, the COLOROTON sweeps away playing difficulties that have troubled students for generations. By its use, Trans- position—usually.a“night-mar to students—becomes easy and fascinating. With my fifth lesson I introduce another important andexclusive invention, QUINN- DEX. Quinn-Dex is ‘a simple, hand-operated moving picture device, which enables you You ‘actually see the fingers more. Instead of having to reproduce your teachet finger movements from MEM ORY—which cannot be al accurate—you have the correct models before you during every minute of practice. The CO!

Men and women who have failed by all other methods have quickly and easily attained success when studying with me, In all essential ways you are in closer touch with me than if you were studying by the oral method— yet my lessons cost you only 43 cents each—and they include all the many recent developments in scientific teaching.

Every | | war throws a big crop of heroes on the market. In the recent war the heroes ate Bully Beef and chased the German out of the land of the hand lotion. -And they were called “above-named soldiers” while the fellow who lounged about the club house at Brest and entertained the welfare girls came home jingling like 2 week-old Xmas | toy. 29 York was a hero. So was Dionysius, Ulysses and Artaxerxes, Doc Cook and One-Punch Hogan. But the real heroes are not listed. The every-day gallants go unsung, unsculptured and unfilmed. When real heroes are special mention will be made of the youth who helps the girls do the dishes at a house party. And the man who takes a cold shower. And the fellow who says “No” to a barber.
