ROLLS IN LOUISVILLE.
In the Player Roll Shops in two choice locations in
Louisville, Ky., Bruner Greenup has developed an
exclusive roll and record business of a large and
profitable kind. Mr. Greenup has now added August
to June and July as a busy summer month, so he can
now report a summer business which excels all pre-
vious experiences in the same months. Mr. Greenup
has a store on Walnut street and another on Fourth
avenue and in both stores he "bunches his hits" for
the rolls and records. He is a persistent advertiser
and his window displays and store demonstrations
of roles and records are most effective in creating
demand for the goods.
