Manufacturers of
Dealers Find Portable Set Helps in Keeping Alive
the Public's Interest in Radio.
The Kodel radio is a
good summer seller, ac-
cording to the number of
sales made by the several
prominent Chicago stores
since radio's latest inno-
vation was introduced by
the Westphal l a b o r a -
tories early in the sum-
mer.
The Kodel is a port-
able set that contains
unique and exclusive fea-
tures. It is compact and
resembles a camera in
size, which adds to its con-
venience. The smallness
of the Kodel has not af-
fected its receiving power
in any way. Through its
demonstrations in Chi-
cago stores it has con- vinced spectators of its
remarkable receiving power and high selectivity.
The power embodied in the small case, and the
convenience it affords its owners, have reflected on
the radio sales of the music dealers to the extent that
dealers have kept the Kodel prominently displayed
before the public.
The Kodel, a product of the Kodel Mfg. Co., Cin-
cinnati, Ohio, is represented in Chicago and sur-
rounding territory by the Westphal Laboratories, 223
South Michigan avenue. Harry Westphal, of the
Westphal Laboratories, is a radio technician of wide
experience and has given his personal and efficient
service to the retailers of Kodel.

The August Bulletin of the Automatic Music Roll
Company Is a Rarely Full One.
The August bulletin of Seeburg Specials for elec-
tric pianos, orchestrions and organs, is a remarkably
large one. The Automatic Music Rolls Co., of Chi-
cago, which produces the Seeburg music, presents
one of the best lists that industry has ever put
forth. It embraces new standard 65-note music, for
coin operated instruments, pianos, motion picture
players, pipe organs, orchestra, hand-played organ,
rolls—everything in the automatic instrument roll
line. The introductory page reads as' follows:
Automatic music rolls are being used by all live
and up-to-date electric piano owners.
Music rolls should be changed often to obtain the
best financial results from your piano.
Are you keeping your place alive? Are you getting
big returns from your instrument or have you ne-
glected to get new music as needed? Neglect is an
expensive habit.
Many owners of electric pianos have a standing
order with us for one or more new rolls each week
or month. Our roll department is up on this service.
You might as well have the benefit of it, too.
PORTABLE PHONOGRAPHS POPULAR.
The sale of portable phonographs is one-third bet-
ter than usual in Dallas, Texas, this summer, ac-
cording to D. L. Whittle of the D. L. Whittle Music
Co. Other music dealers make similar reports. The
Adam Schaaf Co. reports a noticeable increase in
sales of records in July as compared with June, the
records being chiefly dance selections.
RADIO SUPPLIES FAILURE.
The Reflex Mfg. and Sales Company, Inc., radio
supplies, 644 West Forty-fourth street, New York,

$1,000 bond, by Judge Knox.
