TRIBUTE TO DAYTON STORE.
"Mr. Meredith, of the well known Meredith Music
Store on South Ludlow street, Dayton, Ohio, recently
had a very amusing story told him by a musician
from another Ohio city much larger than Dayton,"
says the News, of that city. This musician made a
special trip to Dayton for a purchase of teaching and
concert supplies and incidentally made the remark
that "In our leading music store they have a slogan
that reads, 'If it's anything worthwhile in music we
have it,' but their customers have changed it around
to read, 'If it's anything in music we will have to
order it.' '' "In past years," continues the newspaper,
"the Meredith's Music Store has shipped sheet music
to all parts of this country and in some cases even to
foreign lands. Practically all the leading publishers
are represented in the stock of Meredith's Music
Store."

BOWEN LOADER AND
THE PROSPECT LIST
Quick Action by Dealer and Salesman on
Every Name Is Assured by This
Admirable Contrivance.
The necessity of going out and finding the piano
customers instead of complacently waiting in the
store for the obliging prospect, is made clear by cir-
cumstances in the trade today. The dealers who
make the most sales are the ones w r ho actively seek
out the prospects and show and demonstrate the in-
struments at the moment of finding. By the Bowen
Loader way to dealer practically brings the piano
store to the prospect's house.
The new Bowen Piano Loader made by the Bowen
Piano Loader Co., Winston-Salem, N. C , is recog-
nized as a desirable and necessary equipment for the
dealer ambitious to actively search for piano cus-
tomers. It is invaluable to salesmen who work sub-
urban and country trade. The use of a sufficiency of
Loaders enables a small force of salesmen to do the
work of a large one. Using the Bowen Loader, one
man is all that is necessary to load, unload or dem-
onstrate an upright piano, but small grands may be
hauled on the Bowen Loader as well as uprights.
The most perfect prospect list is powerless to serve
the dealer except he is equipped to quickly see the
prospects and open negotiations leading to closed
sales. The Bowen Loader attached to a Ford run-
about is the quickest and most effective aid towards
bringing the piano to the prospect's home.
The Cristanelli Music Shop was opened recently
in Iron Mountain, Mich, and features Baldwin pianos.
Careful attention has been paid to the appointment of
the interior fixtures and furnishings, and when that
work is completed the Cristanelli store will be one
of the most attractive of its kind in the district. New
