\ SHOPPER'S ATTENTION IS
DRAWN TO STEGER PIANO
High Ideals of Steger & Sons' Piano Mfg. Co.
Pointed Out in Daily Newspaper.
The Steger piano was the subject one day last
week of one of the intimate chats in the "As Seen
by the Shopper" page in the Chicago Evening Post.
This is the bit of clever comment clipped from the
newspaper:
"It is a very pleasant discovery in these days of
unsettled industrial conditions, to find a concern
which has zealously maintained its high ideals in
manufacturing in the face of constant demands for
increased production. Steger & Sons Piano Manu-
facturing Company has achieved the distinction, be-
cause it has consistently adhered to the highest
ideals in the production of Steger pianos and player-
pianos. In the immense Steger factories at Steger,
111., with over 40 years of practical experience in
building the finest pianos, only the best materials
are used and the most skilled artisans employed,
quality is placed first—price secondary.
As a result one really could not wish to possess a
finer piano than a Steger. The beautiful, resonant
tone of this superb instrument is a source of real
joy and inspiration to all true lovers of music. The
artistry and rare beauty of its case-designs appeal to
the most discriminating.
Immense resources and extensive factory facilities
enable the manufacturers to offer the artistic Steger
pianos and playerpianos at attractive prices. It will
certainly repay you to visit the inviting Steger dis-
play rooms, in the Steger Building, northwest cor-
ner of Wabash and Jackson, and inspect the beau-
tiful Steger piano, which is universally known as
"The Most Valuable Piano in the World."

MICHIGAN'S TIMBER-SAVING PLAN.
Michigan's slight loss through forest fires during
1920 is being attributed to the success of the new
organization formed to combat such fires, in which
the state was divided into districts comprising from
2y 2 counties to five counties, with local organization
in each.
