STRAUBE PIANO COMPANY
PREPARED FOR BIG DEMANDS
Factory Fully Equipped to Comply with Calls for
Pianos and Playerpianos.
The Straube Piano Company, Hammond, Ind., is
assured of an unusual fall and winter season from the
standpoint of sales. E. R. Jacobson, president of the
Straube Piano Company, in writing to Straube deal-
ers some time ago, pointed out that the company
foresaw that it would require some unusual prepara-
tion to meet the needs of dealers promptly this fall.
The preparations were made and the requirements of
dealers anticipated in the effective Straube manner.
The Straube Piano Company now has a large num-
ber of comparatively new dealers to care for, and this
number is increasing every week. This increasing
number of dealers is largely due to the company's
national advertising and dealer service. Therefore, if
the company was to meet promptly the needs of its
dealers, it should have to rely on wise anticipations.
Mr. Jacobson, relying on the advises of all Straube
dealers, anticipates an exceptional season in all sec-
tions of the country. The Straube Company is in-
creasing its production to the limit in order that all
orders may be filled with the usual promptness.
PRAISE FOR F. RADLE PIANO.
Dealers representing the F. Radle pianos made by
F. Radle, Inc., New York, are always enthusiastic in
their methods of advertising the instruments. It is
an assurance to prospective customers of the de-
pendability of the F. Radle line. The way C. C.
Zeek, one New Jersey dealer, advertised the F.
Radle is shown in the following: "We know by ex-
perience that a violin has to be just right in every way
in order to be a fine musical instrument. We have
watched the construction of Radle pianos all the way,
from the back to the finished instrument, and we
have observed the same careful, painstaking work
that we have found necessary in violins. Everything
has to be just right. We attribute our growing
sales to the fact that each instrument is an advertise-
ment."
The Turner Music Co. has a new busy branch store
in the Gruber building, West Palm Beach, Fla. The
headquarters of the firm are located at 608 Franklin
street, Tampa, Fla.
