Energetic Head of Wm. Thomson & Son,
Which Has a Branch in Vancouver, Greets
Chicago Friends This Week.
William Thomson, head of William Thomson &
Son, piano merchants, Glasgow, Scotland, was a vis-
itor to Chicago this week. Mr. Thomson was en
route to his branch store in Vancouver, where his
daughter resides.
Mr. Thomson is always a welcome visitor to whole-
sale warerooms in Chicago and the successful char-
acter of his business in Vancouver mean specially
big orders at every visit. He represents the pro-
gressiveness of the Scotch music merchant and to
his alertness is due many of the modern schemes of
presenting the pianos which have been encouraged
by the Scottish Music Trade Association.
Retirement of Howard Wurlitzer from the Wur-
litzer Music Co., and sale of his interest in the com-

nounced that his son Raymond also has retired. For
the past year Howard Wurlitzer has been chairman
of the board of directors. He succeeded his father,
Rudolph Wurlitzer, as president in 1912, but retired
a year ago because of ill health.

A coming piano man in the musical world is Walter
Wessell, seven years old, son of Arthur Wessell,
who plays most excellently. Master Wessell will
appear in public as a pianist at Freeport, L. I., in
June. This will probably be his premier and the
little fellow is proud of his prowess. Miss Renwick,
his teacher, who by the way is one of the leading
teachers on Long Island, is very proud of her pupil
and predicts for him a great future.
