The Exposition City By the Golden Gate—The Beauty and Variety of the Panama-
Pacific Exposition Will Charm the Convention Visitors From the East—A
Never Ending Vista of Scenic Beauty—A Country of Wonderful Development
Which Will Delight Music Trade Tourists Who Hit the Trail to the West.
M
USIC trade conventionists will soon be
journeying toward San Francisco, the
famed city by the Golden Gate, smiling in
gracious hospitality upon the ever increasing
multitude of tourists who throng her wide
thing gates as she sits in blithe content on
the golden shores of the Pacific.
The Panama-Pacific Exposition and the
scenic wonders of the great West will form
a magnet which will draw many men of the
music trade together. The Panama-Pacific
Exposition reflects great credit upon the
enterprise and progressive spirit of the men
of the Far West.
Someone has termed this Exposition "a
$50,000,000 show," and that is going some in
these war-cursed days.
The whole exposition scheme has been
planned by masters, and there is a fine balance
and perfect architectural relation existing be-
tween all of the buildings. In the various structures will be
found assembled many prod- "
ucts which give a splendid
presentation of what the world
has accomplished up to 1915.
Members of the music
trade who journey to the Coast
to be present at the convention
which takes place in that city
this month will be amply re-
paid. The journey is long, but
the tourists will see a never-
'Ending vista of scenic beauty.
The great Western States
themselves are vast natural
expositions of the imposing and
marvelous contributions of Na-
ture to the delight and comfort
of man.
The Panama - Pacific fit-
tingly commemorates a stu-
pendous achievement which re-
flects honor upon all America.
The opening of the Pan-
ama Canal weds the Atlantic
to the Pacific. Henceforth the
relationship existing between

Then there is the exposition at San Diego, quite worth while,
and any visitors who plan going to California should see both
shows, as well as the varied wonders of the Pacific Coast.
In the present issue of The Review will be found sketches of
the houses which have made music trade history on the Pacific
Coast. Special correspondence from various cities has enabled us
to compile a volume which gives a comprehensive idea of the music
trade interests of the far West, by whom founded and at present
conducted. Also they are special articles showing a century of
musical development on the Pacific Coast, as well as San Francisco
as a musical city.
It would be difficult to locate any section of this land wherein
the piano and other musical accessories play a more important
part in the lives of our citizens than on the Pacific Coast. The
