Belmont, One of Boston's Most Beautiful
Suburban Towns, Selects Poole Grands
for Town Hall and High School.
One of the most beautiful suburban towns around
Boston, Mass., is Belmont, located but seven miles
from the heart of the city. It is -one of those towns
ment its town fathers with the enthusiastic sup-
port of town residents have shown exceptional fore-
sight in its development, the laying out of the streets,
the class of building that has been encouraged, and
the public buildings that have been erected from
time to time. The result is that today a business
man could, in using everyday language, refer to Bel-
m'ont town as a completed article of exceptional
merit and highest quality.

other towns, and for use in many public buildings,
halls, churches, and lodge rooms, the Poole Piano
Company can justly take pride that Poole grands

in which its residents take great pride. Well they
may. Their pride in the fact can readily be under-
stood by any visitor. To have a home in a town so
noted for its beautiful hills and valleys, artistically
laid out estates, parks and public grounds, in fact
everything that goes to make it a pleasant place
to live in is sufficient cause for the feeling.
Belmont is a town that came into existence in the
year 1859, and from that date to the present mo-
were selected for use in the new high school and
town hall of Belmont, also that the Masonic lodge
rooms and the Plymouth Congregational church of
the same town are owners and users of Poole pianos,
and have been for many years past.
Scharus & Frame, Danville, III., is a firm of jewel-
ers which is finding many purchasers for the Pack-
