The Remington Phonograph Corporation, of New
York, recently gave a banquet to the department
managers of that industry and their assistants. The
accompanying photograph was taken on that occa-
sion and it shows at a glance the kind of men that
go to make up the organization of an industry which
has won success within a comparatively short time.
Under the experienced and resourceful management
of James S. Holmes, the Remington Phonograph
Corporation has pushed its products well to the
front And, deserving that place, the instruments
will stay there, for the trade is finding in them a
profitable line and one that is thoroughly represent-
ative. The photograph of the banquet "speaks for
itself," though the event itself was .enlivened by some
very spirited off-hand speeches.
The first meeting and banquet of the managers
and assistant managers of the Remington Phono-
graph Corporation, New York, was held at Cafe
Boulevard, New York, October 27. The aim of the
meeting was primarily to cement the loyalty of the
force and to increase enthusiasm in the employes
generally for the production of the supreme quality
in Remington phonographs.
Among those who addressed the meeting were
Philo E. Remington, president of the Remington
Phonograph Corporation; James S. Holmes, vice-
president, and Everett H. Holmes, sales manager.
Vice-President Holmes talked at length upon the
history of the Remington family from 1790 to date
and the great value of the name when attached to
only the best that can be produced.
A house organ will be issued in the near future
to further inform the employes of the company's
wonderful progress.
NEW "STRATFORD" OFFICERS.
A change has recently taken place in the organi-
zation of the Stratford Phonograph Company, of
Ashland, Ohio. The present officers of the company
are as follows: P. E. Countryman, president; B. F.
Zercher, vice-president; A. B. Cornell, secretary;
Seth Gongwer, treasurer. That is a good, strong
roster and the Stratford is a machine in which any
dealer may take pride. The Ashland industry is
making good headway and is steadily enlarging its
circle of representatives.
CHANGE OWNERS IN RICHMOND.
C. B. Haynes, president of the C. B. Haynes Co.,
Richmond, Va., has sold his interest in the C. B.
Haynes Co., Inc., to E. Bowman, who was the sec-
retary and treasurer of the company. In 1907 Mr.
Haynes established a jobbing business in Richmond.

William E. Pearce, Indianapolis, Ind., special repre-
sentative of the Brunswick phonograph Company,
closed an order last week in Terre Haute, Ind., for a
car of phonographs. The buyer was John Jenses.
Mr. Jenses said: "We have had difficulty keeping
in stock with the new Brunswick. A car load is a
big order in the business but we have on hand right
now orders for one-third of them.—Terre Haute,
Ind., Tribune, Sept. 28.
The Standard Furniture Company, L. Schoenfeld
