Manufacturer* of
Tin- new French horn of C. G. Conn, Ltd , Elkhart,
I lid., is pointed out as another decided Conn victory
in the band instrument field. The acknowledged im-
portance of the French horn in the band and orches-
tra makes the Conn product particularly noteworthy
to musicians.
The new tuning slide for the French horn is an-
other Conn improvement which enables the player to
tune perfectly when playing horn witrMiand m the
bell. Many horn passages required that the hand be
forced far into the ball, and this sharpens the horn a
half tone. The other hand can readily transfer the
air passage through the new tuning slide and keep the
horn in tune. This slide can also give the horn
player an A horn with the B flat and an E horn with
the F. Experts claim this a most valuable feature
and almost indispensable to horn players.
Lieut. Lawrence Mansfield Matt, conductor of the
famous 106th Regiment Band, now known as the
23rd Regiment New York National Guards Band, is
another prominent musician who praises the new
Conn French horn. Continuing in a letter :o C. G.
Conn, Ltd , lie say«:
"I presume it is unnecessary for me to tell you that
my band is equipped with Conn instruments, far al-
most every member is an artist and owns a Conn.
We have a Conn Jumbo Sousaphone in gold and a
large bass drum and several more instruments bring
the percentage up to the 100 per cent mark. Need-
less to say I have always been a firm believer in Conn
instruments for the reason that they possess the re-
finements in all particulars that give the results so
satisfactorily in the requiremen's of the heavier band
music of the present day. I extend my congratula-
tions to your company on having reached the highest
point of perfection in your craft."

Two Paint and Varnish Companies Subject to Order
to "Cease and Desist."
In the summary of the November work of the
Federal Trade Commission, a complaint against the
American Shellac Co., Inc., for "falsely representing
that respondent's product is composed only of genu-
ine shellac gum," cited under the head of 'false and
misleading advertising," evoked an order to "cease
and desist."
Another order to cease and desist was made in the
complaint against the Reliance Varnish Co., et al,
Louisville, Ky., for "bribery of customers' employes."
EXCLUSIVE BUESCHER ARTISTS.
The big drawing card at the Heilig theater in
Portland, Ore., recently was the U. S. S. Leviathan
orchestra, Nelson Maples, direc'.or, and Enimett
O'Mara, tenor, who are exclusive Buescher artists,
and while in the Rose City played to packed houses.
The Seiberling, Lucas Music Co.. who are the
exclusive Buescher distributors for Portland, took
advantage of their appearance to feature them in an
extensive and artistic window display. The picture
of the artists was the central feature of. the window,
surrounded by a complete line of Buescher instru-
ments, attractively arranged.
