REVIEW
ATTENTION! MUSIC TRADE
September 1st is New Year's Day in the Educational World.
What are you going to do about it?
Be Prepared, of Course!
We knew it and that is why in our "Selling Points for Dealers" now in the mails, we print a mes-
sage of mutual interest to Music Dealers and Music Publishers. It is based on W. L. Coghill's in-
spiring address to music merchants. He says, in substance, "Music Dealers do not know the selling
qualities of their stock." We believe he is right.
Our "Selling Points for Dealers" for September will point out simply how you can learn. It con-
tains money-making offers and tells you just what to do to improve Service and increase Sales.
Read it! Understand it! Act upon it!
.
Do it now—Don't Delay—Do it now.
If "Selling Points for Dealers" has not reached you, send for it.
'
Yours for better service, greater sales, more profits!

songs and other copyrighted material for the
