AN ARTISTIC EDITION
"Edition Beautiful" Has Gained an Enviable
Position in the Trade
It's a Fact
That you will sell more copies
of POET AND PEASANT at 15o
than you will at 50c.
Th 1M applies t» the general run
of reprint numbers.
Your customers will buy only
what they must have at high
prices while at 15c they
feel they can afford to
buy more copies and
add to their library.
Hence, your profits
on "CENTURY" will
amount to more in the
end than on selling:
high-priced editions.
Besides, the custom-
ers will feel more
kindly towards you for saving
them real money.

"Edition Beautiful," which was introduced to
the trade less than two years ago, has become
a permanent part of the stock of hundreds of
music dealers throughout the country. Particu-
larly is this true of the retailer who makes a
specialty of catering to pupil and teacher wants.
The success of this comparatively new edition
during a period of general business inactivity
is all the more remarkable.
The sales department of C. C. Church & Co.,
the publishers, reports that this edition has been
added to the stock of hundreds of dealers, and
during the late Fall the new accounts increased
considerably, as even December reports show.
In speaking of the success of "Edition Beau-
tiful" one of the traveling representatives of the
company said: "Some in the past have held the
theory that teachers preferred one-color title
pages to give their students, but the interest
shown in this edition disproves the theory. In
fact, we find many teachers agree that the inter-
est on the part of their students is quickened
by an artistic presentation of the music which
they can now obtain in our numbers."

material, which can be obtained gratis, which
is of great interest to the dealer and will aid him
in interesting his community in music and aid in
the development of such in his section. This,
of course, will be of service to your competitor
as well as yourself, but reflects credit upon the
business. The great trouble with many of us
is that we are continually fishing in the same
pond and we do not give sufficient thought to
the creation of new ideas. Each day let us take
stock by asking "What have I done to-day that
may react and create for the future?" Create a
desire for music and more music in the city,
community, State, factory, in the business, on
the farm, at your institutions, for once the desire
is created it is easy to supply the demand.
In conclusion, I should like to call to the
trade's attention that of the many failures
throughout the country during the past depres-
sion very, very few were music dealers. Our
trade, seemingly, has been able to weather the
storm and we shall continue to prosper and be
prepared to overcome what might seem big bar-
riers, if each dealer simply sits steady in the
boat. Do not overlook your job or shirk your
own responsibility and endeavor to have a
thought for your co-worker (your sales people)
and try honestly to give 100 per cent efficiency
and service to your patrons. In return the pub-
lic will contribute largely to the success of your
business and the industry as a whole and make
1922 the biggest season in the history of the
music business.
