WESTERNER SEES EAST
L. F. Goelzlin, California Visitor, Enjoys New
York, but Retains Loyalty
to West Coast.
Louis F. Goelzlin of the Pacific Music Company,
the Pacific Coast distributors of the De Luxe Re-
producing Roll Corporation, spent a few days in New
York city last week with Jack Gibson of the De
Luxe Company. Naturally, talk drifted to business
conditions in the Far West and Mr. Goelzlin pre-
dicted a marked improvement and increased activity
j during the fall.
As all good hosts do, Mr. Gibson took Mr. Goelz-
lin motoring through Westchester County, as well as
showing him the sights of New York city. In spite
of the wonderful and beautiful things he witnessed,
Mr. Goelzlin, with true Western loyalty, retained his
affection for his native California.
One real thrill awaited Mr. Goelzlin, however—
something he was unable to boast of as coming from
the Sunshine State. In the course of one of his
drives through Westchester, Mr. Goelzlin was treated
to a typical old Eastern thunderstorm—an experience
he had not encountered in six years. Instead of
being dismayed by the ear-splitting bolts from Mars,
Mr. Goelzlin claimed he thoroughly enjoyedthe down-
pour, even going so far as "to intimate that such an
occurrence would occasionally be a welcome relief
from the perpetual sunshine of California.

PRACTICAL SUMMER STIMULATION.
The Royal Court of Music is the high-sounding-
title of a piano house at 106-110 Union street, Bon
Marche Building, Seattle, Wash., Count George Hay
Du Barry, president. On Sunday, August 5, it ran a
half page advertisement in the Seattle Post-Intelli-
gencer in which it said in part: "Join the volume
and secure the home piano at the most favorable
time. Be wise and attend; we release a supply in this
affair that are the standard makes of renown, going
off our floors for advertising purposes."
NO HITCH IN PIANO SHIPPING.
A peculiar condition exists at the present time in
the automobile business, particularly in connection
with sectional distribution of cars. Local agents in
Chicago have been unable to get Chryslers to fili
their waiting order lisas'—that" is, to get any of the
new designs that have been put out this summer.
Contrasted with this unfortunate condition, how much
happier piano dealers ought to feel, for they can get
orders filled from almost any piano factory in the
country immediately. The deduction is that there are
no better nor surer lines of business than selling
pianos.
