Committeemen Named for
Annual Red Gross Roll Gall
'"•""'HERE are a lot of good pianos made. There are a lot of good dealers sell-
J_ ing them. But just why is it that the best dealers represent Kimball?
I
O
S it the general merit of the line—or the plan of financing the dealer—or the
advertising, or the sales help? Yes, partly. But more than that—it is because
SQUARE SHOOTING is a Kimball trait.
UR dealers do not "go away". They are thoroughly satisfied, and some of
them have been for more than fifty years. You, too, can experience the real
pleasure of a profitable, a stable and comfortable factory connection.
