SEARCH FOR OLD PIECE
RECALLS OTHER TIMES
Reminder of Days When "Percifer F. Smith's and
Gen. U. S. Grant's" Marches Raged.
Writing to the Chicago Tribune, a music lover
who signs the initials "F. F. B." presents the fol-
lowing problem for the sheet music store clerks:
I have tried to purchase a copy of Gen. Siegel's
march, a piece which was popular about thirty years
ago, but the dealers write me that they cannot get
it. Is there any one who has an old copy that can
be spared?
Piano players of fifty years ago knew the old
march as well as they did "Gen. Grant's March."
Both pieces were inspired by the Civil War. But
there should be no trouble to find Gen. Siegel's
March in any of the long-established music stores.
We'll wager the Ditson house, in Boston, has it,
or Cottier, Denton & Daniels, in Buffalo, or pos-
sibly Lyon & Healy, Chicago, "filled the wrappers"
after the big fire.
PIONEERS IN SPREADING
AMERICAN PIANO MARKETS
Travelers Who Win Trade for Musical Instruments
Must Have Many-sided Abilities.
The traveling man must know how to find the cus-
tomer, the best season at which to visit him, and he
must also be an expert in rating the credit value of
the man to whom he would sell. These traveling
salesmen for piano manufacturers form a large
army, and they scour the country even to the remote
vilages. The constant traveling implies many hard-
ships—such demands as only the very robust can
stand.
The prince of these traveling men is the foreign
representative of the large American manufacturers.
He is the man who goes out to make markets. He
must know his geography, history, politics and eco-
nomics, and besides he must be an expert in his own
lines, as well as a man trained in business methods,
commercial law and trade customs as applying be-
tween the United States and the countries in which
he does business.
