#161 Q-R-S Marking Piano (1912) - Landmarks Other roll recording devices were developed within this time frame, but as far as known, the Q-R-S is the only example still in existence and in service.

Following a player piano revival in the 1960s that increased demand for rolls, this machine was restored and refinished in 1972 (at which time the roll drive motor was replaced). www.asme.org /Communities/History/Landmarks/QRS_Marking_Piano_1912.cfm   (416 words)

Red Legs - KS-Cyclopedia - 1912 That the organization was disbanded before the close of the war was owing more to the fact that the necessity for its existence had ceased than because a few of its members had thrown off the restraints of discipline. Such was the character of the Red Legs—men who knew not the meaning of the word cowardice, and who left their fields and firesides to defend their homes against the irregular and predatory warfare of the guerrilla and the bushwhacker. It is to be regretted that, not being regularly enlisted soldiers, the complete and authentic history of the Red Legs and their deeds of heroism and daring cannot be obtained at this late day. skyways.lib.ks.us /genweb/archives/1912/r/red_legs.html   (822 words)
