learn that he is having a brilliant success.
The Decker & Son piano is an instrument
that deserves support. It is honestly made
and designed by men who are adepts at
their business.
AMONG the enthusiastic Southern repre-
sentatives of the Sohmer piano can be
counted F. A. Guttenberger, of Macon, Ga.
He is a well-known musician, and a capa-
ble judge of a good instrument—as a con-
sequence, a great admirer of the Sohmer.
C. FRANK HORTON left last week for Chi-
cago on a combined honeymoon and busi-
ness trip. He will in future look after the
interests of C. F. Goepel & Co., dealers in
piano and organ supplies, 137 East Thir-
