M. Hohner, Hi East Sixteenth street, New York,
has just been advised by C. B. Hohmann, its
traveling representative, that the Hohner exhibit

Cal., continues to attract tne attention and favor-

exposition. Mr. Hohmann has been in charge of
the Hohner booth s'nce the opening of the fair,
and his tireless efforts have contributed materially
to the splendid success achieved by the Hohner
exhibit. He will remain on the Coast in charge
of the Hohner booth until the close of the ex-

exhibit is the playing of Jo'.in Verducci, a boy of
only ten years of age, who is a remarkably accom-
plished musician. This lad plays splendidly on
either the harmonica or accordeon, and has ac-
quired an extensive repertoire for both instru-
ments. He also plays the two instruments to-
gether, as may be seen by the accompanying pho-
tograph, and his wonderful memory for music is
reflected in the unlimited scope of his selections.
Master Verducci has drawn interested throngs to
the Hohner exhibit, and the musical effects which
he has been obtaining from the Hohner products
have resulted in an increased harmon'ca demand
for Hohner dealers all along the Coast. Mr. Hoh-
mann is planning to book the boy on "big time" in
the near future.

PATENTS VIOLIN FINGER BOARD.
• .
(Special to The Review.)
WASHINGTON, D. C, October 16.—Frank Consoli,
Brooklyn, N. Y., was recently granted patent No.
1,126,957 for a Violin Finger Board, the general
object of which is to facilitate for beginners the
operation of locating the various notes and posi-
tions on the finger board of a violin, viola, 'cello or
base violin. In United States Letters Patent No.
973,719, granted October 25. 1910, was shown a
finger board for violins and the like constructed
in accordance with the above stated object. But
in that patent the outer surface of the finger board
is rendered interrupted by the presence of trans-
verse grooves or recesses partly filled with pieces
of metal or the equivalent thereof.
The present invention consists in forming grooves
across the finger board at predetermined distances
from each other, and in placing pieces of suitable
material as bone, in the grooves, so that the placed
pieces will be flush with the outer surface of the
board.
