PIANO PL A YING
A ? SIGHT
-
Yesterday The Herald began the publi
cation of a new series of twenty-four illus
trated lessons for the piano or organ accord
ing to W. Scott Grove's modern method of
home teaching.
One exercise is given in each of the twenty
four illustrated lesson*. These exercises are
indicated in the customary note signs which
are familiar to all of us. but Greek to those
who have never studied music In addition
to this, the exercises are charted so that any
one. with or without knowledge of music, can
pick out the exercises on the piano.. Each
chart indicates the white keys and the black
keys that you are to strike and how you are
to strike them.
After following this course you should be
able to play the piano or organ.
If you ?would like to learn how to play the
piano or organ look for the second lesson in The
Washington Herald next Sunday. You can
get these lessons only by buying the copies
of The Sunday Herald in which they appear.

Cuban Tots Find New Joys
In Snowy Days in Washington
This is the tenth of a series of pictures being published
by The Washington Herald introducisi the "junior diplomats"

with their parents.
Coasting and skating arc unknown joy? in the sunny little
island of Cuba, and when l'orlino and l-.vora Bonct, the two
youngsters of l'orfirio T. Bonct and Madam Bonct, came to
Washington a few months ago n< ither of them had ever scrn
snow or sleet.
On the morning of Washington's first snowfall this sea
son 8-ycar-old Porfirio glance?! out of the window and
gasped in amazement.
"Oh, mother," lie cried, "look. It has been raining salt
and the ground is all white and everything"
At I'orfirio's cry Kvora tumbled out of bed an<l hurried
to lilt- window.
Now, Kvora is all of 10 years old and in her story books
has often read of snow, ami sleighs and roasting and all the
things that winter means to the children of the North.
So she smiled at l'orfirio in a very superior manner, as
though she was thinking "what stupid things hoys are any
way," but was loo polite lo say so. You sea-, l;.\ora has been
very well brought op and ?lie ?know s that il is mala to say
ihirrgs- like that earn if one does think them. Of course,
looking thrni is quite all right.
"It's snow," -lie explained very carefully to her brother,
"and it means sleds, an' ice skates, an' si? if, h*. and, oh,
everything" (or alter all Kvora was .1 little hi! ? 'vue on just
what one aloes with snow.
After breakfast both youngster? hurried out to play in
the snow and Kvora quite forgot to he superior in the fun
of throwing snowballs at l'orfino, and building snow men
and houses.

Square patche? of kore?h lay on
each aide of the trail. The mine?
were perhaps a mile or less to east

?tar? sent a pallor that waa diffused
In the fog from the ditches. At Bight
these lowlands about the city were
cool. The black vague hill that was

net of distant cries waa spreading.
"Do you suppose." suggested ???t*
ington, "that we can keep under

beast of some kind, and then ?print

Con realized very well that tb?
nearest water-hole wa? a matter of

tility. Food wa? yet to-be consid

them out snd punish. But he felt
the need of cheering hi? friend.
"We csn Bet into the vineyard."
he continued with enthusiasm he
did not feel, "end the fruit will
s. rve for water, too?and l?y.for
a camel?and you ?till have the
guide-bock on your foot.*'
Andrew March laughed miserably.
He saw wk?,t his friend wa? trying
to do.
"Why not knock at the pate?."
said Marena "and demand water and
provisions for our return trip?"
"Well, we blundered out here."
said 1-evinctnn, "and half the planet
was buikir.g u??stone? for rain,
and ' spinning dust instead of a
hreexe. with a few robber giants on
the sid??so msybe we can break
??Hy f?>r home again."
"I don't mean to be sarcastic.*'
said March very humbly. "I under

Take the Drudgery Out
of Washing With an
Apex Electric
Washer
Laundering becomes one of the easiest duties of
the home when you have an Apex Electric Washer.
The ?Apex washes thoroughly, quickly and easily
because of its correct design.
The air pockets created by the special Apex tri
angles in the tub produce alternate pressure and vac
uum, pumping the hot soapy water through the fabrics
and cleaning them without wear.
A housewife can complete even very large wash
ings in a couple of hours or even less time, and at a
small expense. The time the woman gains for other
purposes is worth the price of the washer alone.
In addition, the Apex is equipped with one of the
best Electric Motors ever designed, which assures satis
faction from an electrical standpoint.
Let us demonstrate the Apex to you and show you
what a relief and real economy they bring.
Each and every Apex is fully guaranteed.
You can arrange with us for easy terms if desired.
