Tom Brown Wanted ‘YKW’ but Got B. V D. When He Tuned in On His Little Radio

By WALTER D. HICKMAN OM BROWN wanted to hear something from the outside i world. He had a letter from the dear wife. It was a warm night. Tom in his room at the Claypool wanted conversation with the outside world. He craved just that. So Tom approached a specially made traveling bag and produced his special radio set. Tom gleamed With pleasure. He was about to talk with the outside world. “What direction is Chicago from this room?” he asked me and others assembled for his radio concert. “Slightly northwest,” I suggested as Tom adjusted something on his radio which indicated that the Wir-’y City was wanted. Then Tom became excited. He turned this and turned that. The sound produced reminded me of a riot. “I get so excited when I handle this radio,” said Tom. He removed his coat. Th£n his collar vanished as he toyed in a hopeless effort to get YKW, but the darned thing would not “YKW.” As Tom worked up some speed be became warmer and warmer. He finally 1 emoved his coat and exposed the upper part of his undergarments. I suggested that he had already obtained “B. V. D.” and that was as near as we got. to Chicago. Loves His Radio Tom Brown, leader of the wellknown Six Brown Brothers and the thirty-piece saxophone band, now playing an engagement at the Circle, is wild over the radio. There are many artists on the stage in this country who have taken the radio as a companion. Tom gets lot of pleasure out of his radio in his hotel room. He carries it with him every place he goes. It makes the long hours between shows seem shorter. When Tom discovered that he could not get Chicago because the last bedtime story had been told, I he produced the oldest saxophone in existence and played several of Paul Dresser's numbers for his guests. This ancient saxophone does not resemble the ones the Six Browns play on at the Circle. Even the saxophone has advanced just like the automobile. Tom Brown is one artist on the stage who enjoys to “black up” for his work. Tom with his blacked up face, his funny tie and starched trousers is well known to thousands of American patrons of the stage He and the other Browns are a credit to the American stage. Their engagement closes Saturday night at the Circle and they leave for e " ” r k or a long engagement.

A Satisfied User Is Indeed a Valuable Advertisement * Mr. Lawrence M. Peterson, 3538 Salem St., is a firm believer in the advantages of Indianapolis By-Product Coke Read What He Says: ' Indianapolis, Indiana, “Citizens Gas Company, June 4, 1924. “Indianapolis, Ind. * “Gentlemen: “After having used Citizens Gas Company coke almost continuously for the past eight years, it has occurred to me that you might appreciate a line to let you know that we are more than pleased with the results obtained. “For the past five winters we have heated a house with seven rooms, besides sleeping porch, and have had no difficulty in maintaining the desired temperature. “Coke appeals to us as a most desirable fuel for the home for the following reasons: “It produces an even heat without sudden changes in temperature of the house. v “The entire house is warm in the early morning, and it is not necessary to force the furnace and waste fuel. “The furnace requires attention less frequently than when using coal—twice a day on an average—at times it will go for thirty to hours. “There is no smoke, no soot, and little ashes. “Coke is much more easily handled, and makes less dust and dirt in the furnace room. “We use a standard warm air furnace without any additional equipment, and feel that we are getting splendid results. “I feel that if the Smoke Prevention Bureau were able to induce the heme owners of our city to try coke for heating their homes, the smoke problem would be more readily solved. “Yours for a cleaner city, “LAWRENCE M. PETERSON.” i Why not join him and thousands of other users, and be delighted? Buy NOW at the Reduced Spring Prices and Save Money Citizens Gas Company
