Te first appearance last night of the Lewis' Municipal band In a concert recital drew a fair audience, though It was an invitation affair, the concert having been arranged for the purpose of giving city authorities and music critics an opportunity to guage the band before the season of free municipal concerts shall open at the Auditorium Sunday afternoons.

In this connection it is proposed to put on motion pictures. There will be no admission charged and- vhe entertainments will be so arranged as not to interfere with church services. It has beer, announced that If these entertainments prove a drawing card tnat it is aem onatrated that the people desire them and will attend- there will be a move on the -part of the city officials to close the picture shows on Sundays.

Harmon of Ohio has been a National figure for a long while. Despite the fact that Ohio, In the last presidential election gave President Taft a substantial majority. Governor Harmon, a democrat, was swept back lntp office in that State by a majority that Is without precedent in any State where the two great political parties of this country battle for supremacy with equal advantages as far as their T5rdlnary numerical strength Is concerned.

Harmon the governor, and Harmon the man, has so conducted himself In official and private life as to merit the profound regard of the entire country without reference to political affUlatlons. His splendid record as a public man, his unblemished character and Ms standing in democracy Is such that he Is regarded as a fit candidate to lead the democratic party to deserved victory this year. Therefore, It Is urged that not only the avowed supporters of Governor Harmon, but alL democrats, should attend the meeting In Turner hall this evening. There "will be no long speeches made by the several speakers who will address the gathering, but short talks, concise, to the point, will be the order of the "program. 1 Amusements "Brewster's Millions."
