SAN FRANCISCO, CAL., August 1.—The recent
remodeling of the Wiley B, Allen Co. store at
1031 Fifth street has made possible the addition
of a sheet music department which was installed
to-day, according to a statement made by J. H.
Cooley, manager, yesterday.
The contract for the building of the wall fix-
tures, counters and showcases was recently
given to Schieffer & Sons, of this city, and will
conform in design and color to the beautiful
fixtures of the other departments manufactured
by this concern and installed last Fall.
The requirements of instrumental and vocal
teachers, orchestra leaders, choir and band mas-
ters, music students and the music-loving public
will be cared for by complete stocks from the
leading music publishers of America and Eu-
rope, including the library editions of B. F.
Wood, G. Schirmer, Carl Fisher, Oliver Ditson,
Clayton F. Summy, Boston Music Co., Peter's
Edition, Durand, Steingraber and many others,
as well as the leading publishers of popular
music.
"The addition of a music department is a re-
sult of a constant demand from our patrons
and our desire to give a more complete music
store service than the physical arrangements of
our store in the past have permitted. We
promise a stock and service second to none on
the Pacific Coast," says Cooley.
The Review herewith reproduces the window
display which won the Century trophy cup
given by the Century Music Pub. Co. for the
best window showing of the Century Certified
Edition during the past season. This is the
first of eight prize-winners and is the window
