SALT LAKE ASSOCIATION
WILL BE REVIVED
Plans Being Formed to Resuscitate the Or-
ganization Which Has Been Permitted to
Slumber for Several Years.
By JACK WILLIAMS
A meeting of the Music Dealers of Salt Lake and
vicinity at the Hotel Utah, January 11, at which
President Ed. UhL of the National Music Merchants'
Association, was present. Mr. Uhl, who is also
president of the California Music Company at Los
Angeles, made a very instructive address to the rep-
resentatives of the various musical lines in attendance,
including dealers from Sale Lake City, Ogden, Provo,
and Brigham City, Utah.
Mr. Uhl spoke on the educational phase of music
and also urged those present to revive the Utah
Music Dealers Association, which has not functioned
for several years. Ten concerns signified their will-
ingness to actively support the Association, and a
committee consisting of T. J. Holland, of the Glen
Brothers-Roberts Piano Company, J. D. Daynes of
the Daynes-Beebe Music Company, and Mrs. Olon
MASCOT
The World's Leading Small
Electric Piano
of the Utah Music Company, all of Salt Lake City,
was appointed to call another meeting at the earliest
possible date and also to draft a set of by-laws.
Ezra B. Jones, manager of the Jones Music Com-
pany at Ogden, Utah, demonstrated the Brunswick
Panatrope during the entire week of the National
Stock Show at Ogden, playing to approximately ten
to fifteen thousand people a day. Mr. Jones was highly
commended by a front piece in the local newspapers
for his activity in furnishing the music and also
secured many prospects by this demonstration.
The Glen Brothers-Roberts Piano Company of Salt
Lake City, is experiencing a very active month in all
departments, according to Manager T. J. Holland. A
special window tie-up arranged in connection with the
appearance in this city of "The Student Prince,"
brought a big run on records and sheet music in these
numbers.

It was announced at the luncheon of the Piano
Club of Chicago this week that next Monday the
club will be entertained by Julian Arnold, son of Sir
Edwin Arnold, and himself equally famed as a writer
and lecturer.
The subject of Mr. Arnold's talk will be "Recollec-
tions of Famous Artists of the Victorian Period."
This is said to be one of Mr. Arnold's bes* topics and
as it largely concerns musical people will be espe-
cially interesting as a piano club attraction. The
club is indebted to E. V. Galloway of the entertain-
ment committee, for this treat.
Charles Deutschmann, president of the Piano Tun-
ers' National Association, related a romantic experi-
ence he had. Late last Saturday, just about as he
was to retire for the night, he was called to the
telephone to hear a request in a female voice to come
quickly to an apartment at a well known down-town
hotel. The speaker said that her kitten had become
so wedged down under the strings of the grand piano
that the little feline could not be extricated by her-
self, her maid, or other help in the hotel.
The plea was so tearfully urgent, that Mr. Deutsch-
mann could not refuse. It was easy to let down a
few strings and allow the kitten to escape, but the
grave president of the National Piano Tuners' Asso-
ciation was blushingly embarassed when the lady, in
effusive thankfulness, impulsively flew up and kissed
him.
The next day a letter came to his office expressing
the "sincere thanks of Florence MacBeth."
The entertainment at 'the Chicago, Piano Club
luncheon on Monday of this week was by Axel Chris-
tensen, and by two young men supplied to the club
by Mr. McLaughlin, of Lyon & Healy. One gave
several selections on the banjo and his companion
played the violin.
Announcement was again made of the Club enter-
tainment at Chez Pierre, on the night of Tuesday,
February 1, where and when a good time is expected.
The affair will be informal and all piano club mem-
bers and their friends are invited.
Ed. C. Davis, a former treasurer of the club, was
present and gave a few moments' talk on life in
California as he now sees it at his home in San
Diego.
