We are spending $50,000 this year in this kind of advertising. It helps both the player-
piano and the music,roll business, but^costsjyou and [your customer nothing. It comes
out of our gross profits.

There Are
Only 100,000
Player Piano Owners Left
It is estimated that there are 850,000
player piano owners in America.
750,000 of them already know Q.R S
Player Rolls produce music that is musical
because it is human.

That means there are only 100,000
left that don't know Q.RS Player Rolls.
Are you one of these? If so—there is
one pleasure in life you have missed—a
pleasure that can be had for the asking.
While QR S rolls cost you no more than
ordinary kinds they are not cheap rolls—a high
grade article seldom is. They cost the dealer
more, but he cheerfully sells and recommends
them because he is "pound wise" and knows
that the better music your player piano gives,
the more likely your neighbor is to buy one.
Some of the largest selling compositions in
recent years have produced exclusively in
Q R S Rolls. Take for example our No. 511,
A Little Birch Canoe." Eight out of every ten
player owners that hear this will purchase it.
