BALDWIN PIANOS FOR .
SCRANTON CONSERVATORY
Instruments from Cincinnati Industry Have Leading
Parts in Recitals and in Curriculum.
The accompanying cut shows exterior and interior
views of a famous eastern music school, where the
Baldwin piano is an aid to study. The Scranton Con-
servatory of Music, Alfred Pennington, director, was
founded in 1896, and maintains the highest standard
of musical education in the branches of pianoforte,
voice culture, singing, violin, musical theory and har-
mony, has received an ever-increasing patronage from
the entire territory of which Scranton is the center,
as well as places more remote.
The Scranton Conservatory is especially famed
and his case designs are among the most attractive.
But it is "Radle Tone" that creates enthusiasm in
the West 36th street factory. And that enthusiasm
extends to the dealers who sell Radle insruments.
The result is what it always must be in the piano
trade, where salesmen are stimulated by what is best
in musical results. It is always interesting to visit
the Radle factory, for the enthusiasm there is con-
tagious, with the stimulation of a positive assurance
that merit will win.
"Our orders are increasing steadily, and our dealers
are growing stronger in their faith in Radle pianos,"
said the head of the industry to a Presto representa-
tive this week.
MUSIC WEEK STIMULATION.
A stressing of the use of special printed matter is
recommended by the National Music Week Commit-
tee for the final weeks in preparation for the observ-
ance on May 3-9. The committee's experience in
connection with the first National Music Week proved
that its preparation of attractive printed matter was
possibly the greatest service it could make to the local
Music Week Committees and to those in the music
trade who co-operate in the movement. The com-
mittee has therefore added certain items to this list
of material. All of this printed matter is distributed,
at the actual cost of printing, by the National Music
Week Committee from its headquarters, 45 West 45th
street, New York City.

through Pennsylvania and the eastern states, not only
for the equipment of the institution and splendid pres-
tige of the faculty, but especially for the great repu-
tation of Alfred Pennington, director, as a teacher
and as a musician.
Recitals and concerts given before audiences play
as important a part in the teaching curriculum as the
lessons themselves. In these recitals the concert
grand piano is always a Baldwin. Many of the other
studios are also equipped with Baldwins—a source of
great pride to the pupils as well as the faculty. The
center cut shows the Scranton Conservatory of Music.

OLD NEW YORK INDUSTRY
Factory of F. Radle, Inc., on W 36th Street, Is Inter-
esting Point of Observation.
The factory of F. Radle, Inc., 609-11 W. 36th
street, New York, is a point of activity. The prog-
ress of the Radle piano, while dating back a very long
time, has been especially and substantially pronounced
of late. Mr. Radle has displayed foresight and a
knowledge of what the piano buying public prefers,
The Schaff Bros. Co., of Huntington, Indiana, is
making a success of the one-size piano plan. The
size is four feet five inches in height, but there are
four veneers, which gives a good variety and enable
the salesmen to satisfy all tastes. The plan has
worked out well and insures closer connection be-
tween receipt of orders and shipments. Manager
C. S. Miller expresses great satisfaction with the
way the spring trade opens.
E. A. BEANE, SUPERVISOR.
E. A. Beane is United States supervisor of radio
for the ninth district, which comprises the middle
