ENGLISH CHEER REFERENCE TO U. SJ-IGHTERS America Will Be VictoryBringing Factor, Lloyd George Tells Commons. LONDON, Aug. 8. "If America were

to call men to the colors In the eame !

proportion that Great Britain has done, it would result in an American army of 15,000,000." It was Premier Lloyd George who thrilled the House of Commons Wednesday afternoon with this picture. But there were few other "ifs" in his speech, which was a review of the war year, incident to the adjournment of Parliment Thursday until the middle of October. It was a "win-the-war" speech throughout, with the speaker at his oratorical best, driving home smashing, inspiring facts. Enthusiastic was his praise of America's part in the war, how it has

been and will be, the decisive, victorybringing factor. In July alone, he said, 850,000 Americans wera brought to Europe, 180,000 of them on British ships. Cheers constantly - Interrupted the prime minister in his . speech. . They were particularly loud and hearty whenever ha referred to America, and when he praised the fighting qualities of the Yankees who have stood the test of battle1 like veterans. Ovation for Foch. Again there was a stormy ovation when the speaker mentioned Foch's name, calling him "Marshal" the honor Just bestowed upon the Allied Generalissimo as token of France's grati

tude for the victory of the Marne. The German people and Germany's allies wero beginning to be disillusioned, the Premier continued. ' In March, Germany was promising great things and the peace tenacles from her allies were withdrawn. The promise,

however, he pointed out, had failed, and , the German harvest was short, although militarily the Germans had been at the height of their power. Russia, said the Premier, had become a log to the feet of Germany. The Russian people, however, had resented the internal interference of Germany with them and were more and more seeking allied help.

"We will not hesitate to give it to them where ever it is possible," he added. Alluding to the Czecho-Slovaks, the Premier explained that their only desire was to quit Russia and help the allies on the eastern front. The Bolshevik government, however, had repented the attempt of the allies to assist them to get away. Therefore, the Bolsheviki had only themselves to blame for the Czecho-Slovak hostility.

The Premier wanted this made clear., he said, because there had been criticism of President Wilson's decision to join the allies in the Vladivostok movement.

GIRLS' TRIO GIVES BENEFIT CONCERT

Miss Caroline Hutton, violinist; Miss Mildred Schalk, pianist, and Miss Elgia Wittwer, vocalist, gave a recital Wednesday night in the east Main Street Friends church for the benefit of the Allied Relief fund. Miss Hutton commenced the program with a realistic Vieuxtems number, "Ballade . and Polonaise," Miss Wittwer sang three delightful little songs: "Spring's Coming," by McFadyn, "Such a Li'l Fellow," by Dichmont, and Scott's appropriate "The Wind's in the South Today." Miss

Schalk appeared next, producing a bright and whimsical number, "Schergo" by Hutchinson. In the second part of the program Miss Hutton gave "The Avalanche," from a Wigwam, "The Meadow-Lark" by Cecil Burleigh, and "Rondino," by Eddy Brown, the Indianapolis virtuoso. Miss Wittwer gave "To a Messenger," by La Forge, "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot," and "The Americans Come," by Clay Foster.

A Faithful Reflection of Christine Miller Just as the clear surface of a quiet pool mirrors the image above it, so does this marvelous instrument reflect with complete fidelity the voices of the Edison artists. So perfect and satisfying are the Recreations that no human ear can detect a shade of difference between the performances of the artists and those of "Th Phonograph with a Saul" Over two million people have attended our famous tone tests in which the artist was pitted against the instrument And not once has the New Edison failed to meet this searching test: definitely convincingly conclusively.
