William F. Standke, Jr., manager of the New
Orleans, La., store of the Columbia Graphophone
Co., was a visitor this week at the executive head-
quarters of the company in the Woolworth Build-
ing. He spent a few days in New York and then
visited the factories of the company at Bridge-
port, Conn., where he was surprised at the magni-
tude and growth of the Columbia Co.'s factory
facilities since lie had last seen them. Mr. Standke
spoke enthusiastically of business conditions in
the South, and predicted a record breaking fall
trade.
"The reception accorded our 'Grand' by the
trade in all parts of the country is indeed most
pleasing," remarked M. A. Yerkes, manager of the
wholesale department of the Columbia, in a chat
with The Review. "This instrument has scored a
marked success wherever it has been introduced,
and its elevating influence on the whole industry
