CHANGE OF CORPORATE TITLE.
The Kieselhorst Piano Company, 1007 Olive street,
St. Louis, has made application to the secretary of
state of Missouri to change its corporate title from
Kieselhorst Piano Company to "Kieselhorst Com-
pany." The company states:
"Inasmuch as our corporate powers are very broad,
and we are selling at retail, or wholesale, or both, a
diversified line of musical merchandise, such as pianos,
phonographs, radios, phonograph-radio combinations,
Q R S movie cameras, Q R S player rolls, Victor,
Brunswick and Columbia records, music roll cabinets,
etc., we feel that the new corporate title, "Kieselhorst
Company," will be more appropriate. Officers and
directors remain the same as heretofore."
