The Mason and Risch piano
action -rapid, accurate and durable.
THE plane action is a most im-
portant factor in tone pro-
duction. It either helps or hinders
the musician in his interpretation.
The Mason and Risch piano
action is so scientifically designed
and so mathematically exact in
construction that the parts work
together without friction.
It is the most sensitive piano
made - responding instantly a n d
accurately to . the player's every
graduation of touch. There is no
lost motion.

Mr. 1. T. Clark in England to cover British
flections for Toronto Daily Star
Another instance of dggressive enterprise on the part of the
"Toronto Daily Star" is furnished by its action in sending to England
a member of its staff, Mr• Joseph T. Clark, to remain there until the
close of the British Election Campaign.
Sheer tbe 14th of December Mr. Clark's cables appearing in the
" Star" have been commanding attention and favorable comment.
Never before has a Canadian paper afforded its readers the means of
following day by day a British Election Campaign so intelligently.
Cabling is an expensive operation, but the " Star " does not spare
expense when there 1s an opportunity to serve its readers.
Mr. Clark, who is known throughout Canada as ■ writer of un-
usually graceful English, with an original point of view that !gives
distinctiveness to everything be writes, is describing the campaign at
greater length for "Star" readers in frequent letters which can be
truthfully described as masterpieces. -..
The Br.tisb EiectiAns are being covered in the "Stat" by no less than
four distir -t services, two of them exclusive to the " Star," ■s follows:
1. Mr Clark's cables and letters (exclusive to the "Star").
2. A .pecial cable service from a staff of permanent correspondents
in Britain i exclusive to the "Star").
3. The Canadian Associated Press cables.
4. The Associated Press cables.
In no previous British Election has a Canadian paper made similar
preparations for getting the news. It Is another proof of tbe increasing
closeness of Canada's relations to the Mother Land. But, also, not in
our times hive there been as greet issues at stake. The budget, free
trade, the future of the Hoose o1 Lords, the British constitution itself,
are in the melting pot, and who knows what will come out? For com-
parisons ore bas to go back M the great reform of 1832, and one
authority save it is the most momentous struggle since the Revolution
of 1688.
The "T•,ronto Daily Star's" news columns will keep you tally
posted as to the progreei of the fight,
