MUSIC TRADE EVENTS
IN SOUTHERN INDIANA
Business Reported Good in Evansville and Other
Cities and Anticipations Are Cheerful.
Eighty-five employes, wives and sweethearts of the
Harding & Miller Music Company, Evansville, Ind.,
gathered in the basement of the store on Thursday
night, January 26, for the twentieth annual meeting
of the Harding & Miller Benefit Association. The
association is a fellowship organization and designed
to care for the store's sick and incapacitated.
Al Klamer, manager of the store, was the toast-
master. The entertainment was in charge of Nye
Sandefur. Rev. A. P Wilson, pastor of the First
Christian Church, was the speaker of the evening,
lauding the association for its effective fellowship.
Several skits by employes were presented, one being
'"Harmonalo," the inventive musical dream of one of
the employes of the store. The Harding & Miller
house is one of the oldest in Evansville.
Plans have been made known by Professor Lowell
Mason Tilson, head of the department of the Indiana
State Normal School at Terre Haute, concerning the
May music festival for which rehearsals already have
begun. This is one of the musical events each year
in Indiana. An elaborate program is being pre-
pared for the festival.
Professor Raymond Kirsch, leader of the Boon-
ville Municipal Band at Boonville, Ind., is arranging
for a concert to be staged at a future date in the
Boonville Opera House, the proceeds of the concert
to be used in buying uniforms and instruments for
the band. Professor Kirsch has been at the head of
the Boonville Municipal Band for a number of years.
Trade with the music dealers in southern Indiana
towns during the past week or ten days has been
very good.

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
