And little payment? will
Keep it there
Some people labor under the impression that it takes hundreds of dollars to own a beauti
ful piano, and to these people we say, you hold a wrong idea.
Beginning tomorrow morning we offer a great assortment of fine pianos which are perfect
in tone and manufacture, and which we will place on sale for sio cash and small monthly
payments. .
Every one of these instruments is doubly guaranteed and is far superior in quality and
workmanship to many that are sold by other dealers for twice their cost.
It’s our great ambition to see a piano in every home in this Texas metropolis and in mak
ing this offer we realize that it means the sale of at least one hundred pianos this week, but we
prepared for the rush by filling our storehouse with instruments in order to prevent disap
pointing any of the possible purchasers who wil’ visit our store this week.
We have just one more word to say concerning this wonderful offer:
Come Early While the Assort
ment of Designs is Com
plete and Take Your Choice
Our doors will open promptly at 9 Monday morning and close at 6 each day during this
sale, which lasts but one week.
If you need a piano and have felt as if you could not afford to buy one don't neglect this
great opportunity of getting one on practically your own terms.
If you are an out-of-town resident write us for catalogue and prices. We will ship any piano
on approval and guarantee to return all money paid if not entirely satisfactory.

Congress of Mothers and Par
ent-Teacher Association
Express That Sentiment.
CAMPAIGN FOR PURE FOOD
New President, Mrs. A. H, Cad
wallader, Makes Strong Plea
for Co-operation.
That the San Antonio Congress of
i Mothers and Southwest Texas Par
| entTeacher association shall wago
I war during the coming year in the
j interest of the enforcement of the
[ cigarette and saloon laws regarding
minors was the sentiment expressed
at the first meeting of the season
[ held this afternoon at the Woman’s
Club house.
Pamphlets have been printed by
the legislative committee containing
the Texas laws in regard to the sell
ing of cigarettes to minors and the
permitting of minors in saloons.
These are to be distributed in
order to create a sentiment to en
force these laws for the benefit of
| the child.
I Speaking for the pure food committee
of the congress, Mrs. J. A. Daugherty
reported that during the summer the
| committee had had printed for distri
bution a little pamphlet containing
[pure food notes, and selections issued
by the dairy and food commissioners’
■ department of Texas. She declared that
it would be the purpose of the com
imittee to incite individual and concert
[cd action to procure clean food, par
ticular attention being given to ths
bread, which it is claimed is now
handled in an unsanitary manner.
The meeting was piesided over by
Mrs. A. H. Cadwallader, the newly
elected president, who made a bright,
encouraging talk and made a strong
plea that the congress might work to
gether to accomplish good results. She
declared that at no very distant time
she hoped to institute in the colleges a
chair for the preparation of young men
and young women for parenthood.
The educational committee will have
for its especial work the education of
mothers in regard to the laws applying
to children.
Mrs. A. C. McDaniel, chairman ot
lthe outlook committee, called attention
to the penny packages which are being
Isold at the corners 'to chifSren. She u»-
'dared that as much effort shout* be
expended to conserve the physical as
the moral nature of the child.
Upon the motion of Mrs. F. W. Mc
|Allister it was voted to hold a conier
[ence of the chairmen of the mothers’
[congress, the presidents of the various
mothers’ clubs, the principals of the
schools where mothers clubs are held,
[and the superintendent of the schools
[for the purposes of arbitrating various
jmatters, particularly the question of the
[expenditure of moneys collected by the
[mothers’ clubs at entertainments.
| A committee, composed of Mrs. A.
[Zorkowski, Mrs. Cummins and* Mrs. J.
|D. Daugherty, was appointed to draft
resolutions upon the death of Mrs. S.
D. rice.
It was moved to appoint a playground
committee which should be appointed by
I Mrs. Belle Dilgarde.
Dates of Congress.
The dates of the state congress ot
[mothers which meets in Austin, was an
[nounced as October 12. 13 and 14. It
was stated that Governor Campbell and
( State Superintendent of Education Bral-
Jjy would deliver addresses of welcome
and there would be an interesting pro
gram. Each delegate is instructed to
have three typewritten copies of her re-
Iports. Mrs. W. W. Walling was appoint
led chairman of the badge committee
[which will have ITadges for the dele-
Igates printed bearing the name of the
metropolis of Texas, San Antonio, an.f
the name of the school represented.
Mrs. Harvey L. Steele was appointed
[chairman of the committee to interview
[Dr. <*over Johns to iearn what pro
[gram has been made by the American
Dental association in regard to earing
for the teeth of children who are unable
to have them eared for.
Mrs. George Worley, delegate to tne
National Congress of Mothers in Den
ver last June gave an exhaustive re
port of the meeting. She spoke partic
ularly of Miss Elizabeth Harr:son, pres
ident of the Chicago kindergarten col
lege, will have charge of the San
Antonio kindergarten colleges during
the coming year. She said:
“Miss Elizabeth Harrison, director of
the Chicago kindergartens, in speaking
of how best to conserve the nation’s
moral resources, said God never nieant
that any human life should be a failure,
any more than he nieant that Our for
ests, waterways and mines should be
wasted by the powers of greed and
ignorance. She said that the same son
serving force springing up to protect
our natural resources should apply it
self with ever greater eagerness to the
conservation of child-life and all that
makes for its finest development—com
fortable home, cleun
wholesome food and the advantages ot
travel and contact with people of cul
ture. San Antonio is a fortunate city
in having been able to secure Miss Har
rison as supervisor of kindgartens for
the season 1910-11.’’

tory of machinery, tools, etc.
Street Commissioner Maddox is the
only commissioner who is praised for his
business-like methods.
The grand jury also recommended
that the city set aside a reservation for
a “red light district.’’
Scarfs grow in favor. For day wear
with tailor costumes the supple satin
scarf is worn. For afternoon dress the
scarf of mousseline de soie or voile.
For receptions the large empire scarf
makes a pretty accompaniment, and
for evening wear luminous scarfs of
bright tones contrasting with the cos
tumes are worn.

Seventh New Moon.
Rabbi Marks last night outlined the
Jewish belief and the ceremonies which
mark the advent of a new year for
them. He said.
“The meaning and purpose of this
festival is not set forth explicitly in
the Bible; we are left to infer them
from the Scriptural titles of the day,
‘The Memorial of Blowing of Trump
ets (Lev. XXIII 24) and the Day of
Blowing the Trumpet (Numbers XXIX
1) ns well as from the fact that the
Jewish is the seventh new moon of the
Hebrew calendar. In the Biblical age
every new moon Was regarded as a
solemn occasion, and the seventh, the
siered number, was especially so.
“It became the day of the blowing
of the trumpet —par excellence —remind-
ing the Israelite that a new period of
time begins; and that no occasion could
be more appropriate for the endeavor

SPANISH TROOPS
HELD READY FOR
SUNDAY RIOTS
Demonstrations Throughout
Country Are Feared
Tomorrow.

Fight On Clericals Is the Storm
Center and King's Posi
tion Is Delicate,
Madrid, Oct. I—Troops throughout ai»
of Spain are sleeping on their arms to
night in anticipation of serious trouble
tomorrow. Probably 200 clerical and
anti-clerical demonstrations will be
held on Sunday in an effort to influence
the coming session of the Cortez in the
fight the government is making against
the clericals.
The heaviest detachments are con
centrated in the Basque and Catalonian
provinces but the widespread nature of
the discontent makes it impossible for
the government accurately to locate the
danger points.
The position of King Alfonso in tie
impending struggle has been made more
acute by the growing insistance on the
part of the clericals, on whom the king
is counting for support, in favor ot a
republic. As the clericals are demon
strating openly in favor of Don Jaime,
the pretender, the king finds his posi
tion suddenly weakened To an alarming
extent.
There is the gravest apprehension in
the capital tonight lest the troops waver
in their loyalty to the government
should tomorrow’s demonstration de
velop clashes between rival factions.
