Why should you buy a phonograph before you learn to play one ?

Learning to play a Columbia Grafonola is simply a matter of watching a Columbia dealer, play one or two records. Then you can play the instrument yourself.. You will find no lack of opportunity to play a Columbia Grafonola at any Columbia store. They are very glad to have you play the Grafonola as much as you like, and the more you hear it the better the chances are that you will finally buy a Columbia Grafonola. It may be a few weeks before you will be ready to buy a phonograph, but there is absolutely no reason why you should not put in that time with pleasure and profit. The Columbia salesrooms are operated for no other purpose than to give the public a chance to see the Columbia instruments and to hear th: Columbia records. It is well understood by th? Columbia dealer that sensible people cannot be rushed or hurried into the purchase of

any kind of a phonograph. He expects you to take your time, and wants you to feel at home. Buying a Grafonola is really a very pleasant piece of business and the Columbia dealers try to make it even more pleasant. So do not hesitate to go in and get acquainted with the Columbia Grafonola. If you like, you may have the instrument sent to your own home and become. familiar with it there. Play the same records on it and on any other phonograph you or your neighbors have. The wonderful tone of the Columbia Grafonola will be plainly apparent. On this test it praotically always wins. Above all, do not hesitate to visit the dealer; hear the instrument played and ask questions about it, because every question asked about a Columbia Grafonola gives the salesman an opportunity to display and demonstrate the extremely desirable character of the instrument.

Columbia Grafonolas are priced at $15 to $350 Period Designs up to $2100 COLUMBIA GRAPHOPHONE COMPANY, New York

' 'SENDING THE WEEK'S WASH TO FRITZ" IN NO MAN'S LAND

Putting dynamite out on a clothesline over No Man's Land does not mean that the explosive is camouflaged. It is merely one way the Canadians have of disposing of German trench mortars and machine guns. To carry out the operation the Canadian engineers and bombers wait for a foggy evening when the flare or star shells Is less dangerous than on clear nights. Perhaps five men go over. One man carries a wooden post some six faet in langth. Two more have Insulated shears to cut the barbed wire ana make a pam a-nead. The other men carry a wooden pilley and a coil of rope, cne end of which is kept In the trench. The men go forward on all fours across the rough ground. They are all very careful. Wheln within twentyfive feet of the German cement emplacement they set the pole in the ground and attach the pulley and rope to It. Then they go back to their trench. Now a box containing some twenty pounds of dynamite is attached to the rope. By means of the pulley th? dynamite Is slowly hauled out until It reaches Just the right spot. This done all hands retire until daybreak. Then along comes one of the sharpshooters. Tha Germans have had apparently a Quiet evening. No one is moving near their cement gun emplacement but a sentry. All the Canadians get under cover. There is the sharp staccato bark of the rifle, followed Instantly, as the bullet sots off the explosive, by a deafening roar which causes the ground to rock. The men pop up to see the effect of the dynamite. They are just in time to see cement blocks, guns, a few spiked helmets and debris rising: to a height of twen'y or thirty feet skyward. Every one Is satisfied, and in th. vernacular of the trenches "the .week's wash was sent to Fritz this rnqrn-
