Stubby had just told how the car
had rolled down hill and turned over
in the river.
"What became of you when the
car turned over?" asked Button.
"i fell out as it went over and
the current of the stream carried
me from under it so I was not hurt.
And Mr. Noland escaped too as the
car caught in such a. way on some
rocks that it kept the body of the
car from crushing him. As I swam
out at the stream on the other side
of the bridge. I saw him crawling
out from under the wreck."
“Well, I should any you had a

Orchestra Gets Praise
And Support for
Work of Last Season
—The Donors
n in quite unlikely that anyone
of the nearly L500 people who
heard the Norwalk church Orchestra
last season. and who had heard it
in previous years. will deny that
the quality of it playing last lea-
son was in every way much superior
to that of the put.
Scores ’of persons of musical ln-
telligence expressed this opinion.
and it great many of the city's pro-
minent men and women whohad
not heard the orchestra until this
year admitted their astonishment to
find that it was a great deal better
than they had thought it could be.
One well-known man. who seldom
misses hearing the orchestra. de-
clared that it was one of the bigges. t
assets the City of Norwalk had.
Similar expressions of approval were
heard throughout the cannon.
Without exception these enthus:
lnstic folk spoke with pride, and in
the highest terms of praise. of the
work done by the local members of
the orchestra. Some were so proud
and loyal as at first to attribute the
success of the orchestra almost en-
tlrciy to these players. But in the
end. everyone came to realise how
much the out~of~town musicians—
particularly the artists from New
York City—had contributed toward
this success.
Especially did the local players
themselves appreciate this assist-
ance. Not only were they inspired to
greater endeavor by the fact that in
their midst were musicians of the
highest rank—who were merdbcrs
or the largest and beat’ orchestra in
this country—. but they played with
more confidence. .This. in turn. im~
proved to a very great extent the
tone and ensemble of the orchestra.
While some of the money needed
to these cutout-town musiciana'was
raised by the usual contribution
when the orchestra savoits Sunday
evening musical services at the Nor-
walk Methodist Church. most of the
money was given by a number of
Norwalk citizens who have’been in-
terested in the orchestra. who ap-
preciate its value to~the city. and
who are desirous not merely that it
continue to exist, but that it con-
tinue to grow. ,
,The principle contributor was
Charles H. Harris. who responded
very'genérously when stir-st solicited.
and then later voluntarily sent in
another cheat "form. substantial
amount. Mr. vHarris. incidehtally.
before coming to Norwalk supported
a band of his .own: ho'haa givon
freely toward : the Goldman Band
concerts in.Ncw York, and now has
expressed his willingness to do even
more than his share to ‘help the
Norwalk orchestra to reach the
highestpowme point of efficiency.

Fairbanks Says He and

Not Change Man-

LOS ANGELES. Aug. la—The fol-
low g statement has been giv on to
the press by Mr. Douglas Fair-
banks:
“The stories in the newspapers to
the effect that Mary Pickford and I
contemplate any change in our
business arrangements, are absolute-
ly without. foundation. Mr. Chaplin
has already said this—so have I—
but I want to repeat without any
reservation or qualification. and I
hope in a waythat will prevent the
repetition of such reports. that there
is no possibility that Mary Pickford
or myself will tie up with any other
institution, or that Mary will do
‘Peter Pan'.
"in one way the circulation of
these rumor: is more or less flat-
tering. The Wall Street Journal. the
other day. stated that the stock of a
certain motion picture organization
had been put up by the report that
this organization was to handle my
pictures. Porhnpn that—wan the pur-
pose of the report and it may have
succeeded but it does not make the
claimed to be on the‘ point of mak-
ing contracts with the same organi-
greatest service if it would reject
all inch statements so far as they
rclate to Mary Pickford and myself,
as .baolute fabrications, which in—
deed they are.
"Within the industry it is dis-
turbing to have credence given to re—
ports of changes which are not only
impossible now. but not even re-
motely possible in the future. I am
more than convinced that in the
United Artists Corporation we have
scoured absolute freedom for our-
selves ln the making 0!" the kind of
pictures we want to make and at
the some time have a. means of dis-
tribution which is no satisfactory
that no other arrangements need
even be contemplated."
