WOODRUFF IS "CHESTY."
'"Manager Woodruff of the Woodruff company is
feelin' sort o' chesty this week," reports the Carnegie
(Okla.) Herald. "He received a single shipment of
eighteen Guibransen pianos Tuesday, one of the
largest shipments of its kind coming to this part of
the state. These new pianos are beauties in design
and are divided between players and straights.
But why shouldn't Woodruff feel chesty? He is
now in his new building and has one of the largest
stocks of musical goods shown by any store in the
southwest. Woodruff is a musician himself. It's
a treat to hear him play 'How Do You Do'—on
the player."
The Rudolph Wurlitzer Co. has opened a branch in
Fond du Lac, Wis., under the management of A. J.
Hook, for some time connected with the music trade
and recently with the Milwaukee branch of the
company.
