CHICKERINGS FOR STEAMSHIPS

OHIO CONVENTION
BIG SEPTEMBER EVEiNT
Discussions at Business Sessions at Hotel
Commodore Perry, Toledo, to Be Big
Feature of the Annual Meeting.
Nothing so eloquently tells the purpose of the
nineteenth annual convention of the Music Merchants
Association of Ohio, in the Hotel Commodore Perry,
Toledo, on September 10 to 12, than the subject pro-
posed for discussion at the first business session on
the afternoon of September 10: "Promotion of the
Piano." It is a topic that evokes discussive abilities
at a music trade convention and this time the associa-
tion officers have picked sure-fire talkers to lead the
event.
Finance will be the topic for the second day and
that too is powerful to extract remarks from even
the most silent member. "Salesmanship" on the third
day is a subject which will be treated under a variety
of heads. That constitutes salesmanship is something
about which a group of piano salesmen can always
disagree.
President Taylor will soon announce the names of
the men selected to lead in the discussions and impart
the spirit that makes for keen interest in the gather-
ing. According to Mr. Taylor they are to be men
of ability to handle the themes.
STEINWAY IN IDAHO
CHICKERING IN TADOUSSAC SALOON
Following the established policy of giving the most
up-to-date service on its passenger service, the Can-
ada Steamship Lines will put into commission this
year two new steamers, the "Tadoussac" and the
"Quebec." It is a difficult task to paint a word pic-
ture of the various rooms and lounges of these two
palatial sister ships. For the comfort and luxury of
their appointments and service they are unexcelled.
To enhance the charming interiors among the other
furniture selected, there is a Chickering Concert
grand for the "Quebec." It is a decided compliment
to the makers of these pianos that their products
should have been selected for these two ultra-modern
steamers.
The Victor Talking Machine Co., manufacturers
of Victor records and Orthophonic Victrolas have
just appointed the Imfeld Music Store of 1225 Central
avenue, Middleton, O., Victor dealers for Middle-
town.
The appointment of the Sampson Music Company,
Boise, Idaho, as a representative of the Steinway
piano is an assurance of big sales of the fine pianos
in an interesting territory. The appointment covers
the sale of the pianos in the counties of Lemhi,
Clark, Fremont Valley, and Adams and in all the
counties south of these in the state of Idaho. The
appointment is highly appreciated by Charles B.
Sampson, whose ambition and activities in building
up a splendid piano business are thus rewarded in a
desirable way. The Steinway line gives a vast in-
crease to the strength of the piano line of the Samp-
son Music Company.
