the many grand pianos sold recently by
the Doll sales staff at Pittsburgh to prominent

age one Doll & Sons grand a week. The Pitts-
burgh management made the statement to The
Review representative that there was a marked
inclination toward grand pianos, with the Doll
& Sons grand to the foreground.
Miss Scharar first came into prominence as a
soloist at Grace Church, Pittsburgh, where her
clear soprano voice won for her a place among
Pittsburgh's best vocalists. She has studied
under Lawrence Gibson, one of Pittsburgh's
foremost instructors, who predicts for her a
splendid future.
In commenting on the Doll & Sons grand,
Miss Scharar said^ "I deem it a pleasure to
state that I am perfectly satisfied with it. The
tone is both sweet and full. All my friends ad-
mire it for its beautiful case design and tone.
I tried many grand pianos before making the
Doll my selection and choice."
Mr. Harwood, of the Pittsburgh floor staff,
made the sale.
