ape Better
you want to add fifty per cent to your
D O enjoyment
of your player piano?
There's a startling new Q-R-S invention—
a real innovation in player rolls—which makes
possible so much more musical enjoyment
than the old roll, that fifty per cent is a con-
servative estimate of what it adds.
The majority of good music dealers are now
showing the new Q-R-S STORY Rolls.
Investigate.
The Q-R-S line comprises every variety
of player roll that you could possibly want—
Word Rolls—Story Rolls—Autograph Rolls
—Mother Goose Rolls, etc.
Q R S makes them.all.

President of Brambach Piano Co. Gives Aid Per-
sonally to Those Deserving It.
To be a citizen of the United States is a consid-
eration of rirst importance to the foreign born, ac-
cording to the belief of Mark P. Campbell, president
of the Brambach Piano Company, New York. Mr.
Campbell is directing an effort to have all eligible
workmen of the Brambach plant become citizens of
the United States and is offering them every co-op-
eration to that effect.
The Welfare Department of the Brambach Piano
Company is on hand to assist the employe in filing
his first papers and to give him any information
which may be r*eG£ssary to do this correctly. In
taking out the final papers it is necessary for the
candidate for citizenship to present himself with
citizens of good standing who act as sponsers. In
this connection Mr. Campbell is offering his personal
time, going with his employes and standing sponsor
for them. This presents a spirit which reflects
Americanism of the finest kind.

LOCAL ASSOCIATION OF
TUNERS FOR KANSAS CITY
WRITE US ABOUT OUR SPECIAL LISTS
At Meeting at Hotel Savoy Last Week It Was
Agreed to Organize.
An enthusiastic meeting of the most prominent
piano tuners of Kansas City, Mo., was held at the
Hotel Savoy May 8. The principles, purposes and
policies of the National Association of Piano Tuners
were very heartily endorsed by all present. It was
decided by unanimous vote that immediate steps be
taken to effect a local organization of N. A. of P. T.
in that city. F. G. Lupien and A. W. Adkins were
appointed representatives of the national association
to carry on the work until a local organization is
effected.
A number of applications were filed and examina-
tions made, so that the organizers are assured of an-
other division to be added to the ever increasing list
of local organizations under the government and
jurisdiction of the N. A. of P. T.

WILLIAMS
PIANOS
The policy of the Williams House is and always
has been to depend upon excellence of product
instead of alluring price. Such a policy does not
attract bargain hunters. It does, however, win the
hearty approval and support of a very desirable
and substantial patronage.

SELF-LIFTING TRUCKS.
Piano men of today have little idea of the hard-
ships which beset the dealers of long ago. There
was a time when it took four or five husky men to
landle a piano. Today one man with the Self-Litt-
ing Piano Truck can handle the heaviest instru-
ment with comparative ease. The Self Lifting
Truck is made by the Self Lifting Piano Truck Co.
of Findlay, Ohio. It is one of the best selling ac-
cessories to well equipped piano stores because
dealers and salesmen have learned its almost in-
dispensable character.
