M. SCHULZ COMPANY SURE
OF BIG APRIL BUSINESS
Fourth Month of 1924 Promises Well for Active
Chicago Industry.
Orders for pianos and players to the M. Schulz
Company, Chicago, are arriving in such numbers
that the company is looking forward to a big busi-
ness in April. The report that dealers everywhere
are putting pep in the trade has been confirmed at the
M. Schulz Company's offices, 711 Milwaukee Ave.,
Chicago, this week.
Dealers who have been comparatively inactive since
the busy holiday season are going after business with
increased energy. Orders were placed with the M.
Schulz Company early this month by dealers who
had been exceedingly quiet during the first three
months of the year.
Rapid Growth Enables Company to Occupy Large
Building in Heart of Tennessee City.
The Floyd Piano Co., Memphis, Tenn., which re-
cently moved into its new quarters located in the busi-
est part of Memphis, is doing big things in the trade,
according to the report of Henry P. Veatch, Lyou &
Healy piano traveler in the South. Mr. Veatch awards
the palm of beauty to the new home of the Floyd
Piano Co., and says it is hard to conceive of a hand-
somer store. All the fittings are of an unusually
artistic type.
The activity of the Floyd Piano Company has been
stimulated by the help of a fine line of music goods.
Lyon & Healy instruments are represented and a
reputation for square dealing has been established
that has a far reaching effect throughout the South.
The display of grand pianos is being pushed vigor-
ously and booths for demonstration have been pre-
pared for this purpose.

Kelley & Cowles, Inc., Hartford, Conn.

sented to both political parties, will be drawn up at
the twenty-ninth annual convention of the National
Association of Manufacturers, which will be held at
the Waldorf in New York on May 19, 20 and 21.
Among the subjects to be discussed are taxation,
immigration, railroads, merchant marine, conserva-
tion, industrial relations and the legislative outlook.
The topics, it was said, will be presented by authori-
ties in their fields.
The "platform for American industry" has been
under discussion for a year by a committee headed by
Charles Cheney.
