ONE OF THE SIDE SHOWS
Leedy Manufacturing Co., of Indianapolis, Invites
Dealers to Stop and Chat and Look.

the week of June 8th, so don't fail to stop in at the
"Leedy Tent" and have a chat.

about the new Leedy "Professional" (floating head)

NEW FACTORY PIANO TRUCKS
Self-Lifting Piano Truck Company of Findlay, Ohio,
to Have Larger Building.
Increased business has resulted in the formation of
plans for erection of new building on North Main
street, Findlay, Ohio, as the home of the Self-Lifting
l'iano Truck Company. Frank D. Lea, manager of
the industry, had part of the former home of the
plant razed and construction work will start at once.
Greatly increased floor space will be available. The
office of the company will be in the front part, while
the machine shop will occupy the rear portion. A
building in the rear which is how the home of the
plant during the erection of the new building will
be used for a wareroom and a shipping department.
The two-story frame building which the company
had occupied since 1903 was wholly inadequate for
the expanding business, according to Mr. Lea. The
company moved to Findlay from Lima in 191)3, hav-
ing been organized two years previously.
New equipment and additional machinery will be
installed in the factory and the steadily increasing
demand for Self-Lifting piano trucks will have more
prompt attention than ever before.
NEW DRUM PEDAL.
A patent for a drum pedal has been invented by
Chester E. Heyn, Omaha, and the pedal placed on
the market is considered a winner by its promoters.
The Heyn Drum Pedal Co., consisting of C. E.
Heyn, president and general manager, and E. T.
Gordon, secretary and treasurer, has offices in the
Karbach Block. The pedal is built of bronze and
aluminum and no expense has been spared in the
material or construction.
