In order to show the merits of its line of band
instruments the Sterchi Music Company, Terre
Haute, Ind., has made arrangements to have Jimmy-
Miller, trombonist, who is appearing at the Indiana
to give demonstrations at the local firm. An attrac-
tive display of band instruments is being shown at
the Sterchi store in conjunction with the engagement
of Mr. Miller.
Following their custom of co-operating with the
local high schools in their musical endeavors, the
Sterchi Music Company last week donated a new
Ludwig bass drum to the Garfield high school band.
Last June the firm presented the Wiley high school
band with a similar gift.

director of the recording studios of the Columbia
Phonograph Co., Inc., succeeding R. F. Bolton.
The C. W. Lewis Furniture Co., Tuscaloosa, Ala.,
has added the Victor line to its talking machine

Talking machines are ably featured in the show
windows of the Oliver Ditson Co., Boston, which
also stimulates record sales by linking the records
with the songs and music heard in local theaters and
vaudeville houses.
The Frisco Mfg. Co., San Francisco, has an-
nounced a saxophone stand, which the company con-
siders sure of a big demand.
Palmer S. Smith, now associated with the small
goods department of the Sieberling-Lucas Co., Port-
land, Ore., is well known as a musician. His engage-
ment carried out the rule of the house to musicians
as salesmen whenever possible.
"The Western Drummer" is the title of a new
house organ issued periodically by the Quality Drum
Shop, San Francisco.
Walter A. McDougall, manager of the McDougall-
Conn Music Co., Portland, Ore., is conductor of the
widely known Elks' Band, of that city.
The Renier Music House, Dubuque, la., representa-
tive of Conn band instruments, is organizing a girls'
band at Guttenberg, Iowa.
Annie Louise David, a noted harpist, of New York,
has stimulated the sales of Lyon & Healy harps in
an American tour which she has just concluded in
Houston, Tex.
American dance music is now taught in a school
established in London by Paul Specht. All the in-
structors are American.
Finland's timber resources are calculated at 55,890,-
000,000 cubic feet or 670,680,000,000 board feet, of
which about two-thirds is located in the south and
the remainder in the north, though the actual forest
area is about the same in both sections.
A new small goods department under the manage-
ment of Myer C. Friedman has been installed by the
Peabody Piano Co , Baltimore, Md.
TONK CHRISTMAS ORDERS.
The Tonk Manufacturing Co., Chicago, publishes
the following: "We are prepared to promptly fill
Christmas orders. Do not wait too long. It is our
custom to fill orders in the order received except
when they are plainly marked for Christmas delivery.
We recommend 'K-D' 88 especially for the holiday
trade because it is the most practical K-D piano seat
ever offered to the trade; furthermore, we have them
ready to ship, and they are handled more efficiently
by the transportation companies. Telegraph orders
will be given preference from now until Christmas."
