Wylie of Fargo Leases
Entire Building
J. M. Wylie, Fargo, N. D. has just
taken a long lease on the building
where he has been operating for the
last 2MJ years, and leased all three
floors and the basement.
The ground floor is being completely
remodeled, windows to the floor level,
the ceiling is being painted in ivory;
the walls, for ten feet down, in cream,
and then it is made in ovals six feet
wide and six feet high from the front
of the store to the back, where each
piano will have a setting individual
and complete.
There will be new, indirect lighting.
The floors will all be sanded and var-
nished and it will be one of the nicest
retail stores to be found anywhere.
The location is 115 Broadway and
the ground floor and the basement will
be occupied to start with; later, the
entire building. It is 140 feet long by
25 feet wide, giving me S500 square
feet on each floor. Business has justi-
fied this expansion and the expense
involved.
According to Mr. Wylie, the store
will look very much like one of the
illustrations in the Jesse French store
manual. A piano will be mounted in
the back under a floodlight, and a?
one walks in the front door, a three
foot rubber mat, 100 feet long will
lead directly to it.
Offers Business Courses
To Music Students
An innovation in American music
education whereby training in music
is combined with journalism, radio,
business, and dramatics has been an-
nounced by the School of Music of
Indiana University.
Under new curricular combinations
students in music who do not wish to
follow a professional career as soloists
or become music teachers may fit them-
selves for many music-related positions
which an extensive survey by a School
of Music committee has found to be
open to young men and women with
the proposed combined training. These
include positions as music critics, mu-
sic publishing, music salesman, record
department managers, radio announc-
ing, music promotion, music advertis-
ing, artists managers, music store de-
partment managers, and business man-
agers for orchestra, opera and other
musical organizations.
The new combined courses, which
will be offered for the first time during
the semester opening Feb. 11, are ex-
