The Hallet & Davis Was
11 Years Old When Jenny
Lind Game to America
Jenny Lind, the Swedish Nightingale, came to America in
1850. The Hallet & Davis piano was established in 1839.
The Hallet & Davis was already well established as one of
America's leading artistic pianos when Jenny Lind sang her-
self into the hearts of the American people, thereby kindling
its first desire for "more and better music." Jenny Lind has
passed from the memory of living men, but the Hallet &
Davis, whose home in Boston was the scene of her greatest
triumphs, goes on.
And it fills us with r pride'that, after the seventy; intervening
years, the Hallet & Davis, today, is better artistically, is
stronger financially and enjoys a wider sale than ever in its
long and interesting history and it can be profitably sold to-
day for much less money than in Jenny Lind's time.
Write us. We welcome correspondence from dealers con-
cerning any musical matters.

The opening of the new branch was marked
by a three-day series of Duo-Art and Vo-
calion recitals, which served to introduce the
Aeolian products to such Fordham citizens as
were not already familiar with them. The Ford-
ham section is suburban in character and is
filled largely with private residences and the
better class of apartments. The result is that
the prospects thus catered to by the new branch
are strictly of the worth-while sort.

F. H. B. Byrne, director of publicity for the
American Piano Co., returned to his desk on
Monday after a brief vacation spent at Hot
Springs, W. Ya.
Shoot in your fast ones!
We'll bat back harder
than ever before because
our factory is humming
along under the able
management of Mr. John
R. A. Lang, our new
superintendent of pro-
duction. We're still de-
layed here and there, but
we'll soon be one of the
fastest clubs in the piano
league with an A No. 1
chance to capture the
production pennant.
And while we're boost-
ing production, we're
still sitting tight on our
policy, long established,
of bettering Ricca quality,
month by month, year by
year.

Luigi Ricca founded the House of
Ricca in 1891. Mr. Ricca was one of
America's best known musicians. His
thorough musical knowledge coupled
with his piano making ideas enabled
him to produce a real musician's piano—
the Ricca.
The Ricca heritage of quality is now
being carried forward by the second
and third generations of the Ricca
family.
