TRADE SLOGANS
The music business, and particularly the piano-
trade end of it, has produced a more diverse and
numerous list of apt and catch}' slogans than almost
any other line of business. The modern application
of slogan is a rallying cry or a stimulating phrase,
although originally it was sluagh-gharim, a cry to call
the highland clans of Scotland together for war.
Modern slogans have reached the Presto-Times office
on advertisements, letterheads and in letters to this
office. Noticeably, the pianos of value and quality
bring out the most and the best of slogans.
The following slogans are worthy of distribution:
"No talented child should be denied a Steinway."—
Philpitt, Florida.
"Teach your boy or girl to play."—Rorabaugh-
VViley's, Hutchinson, Kans.
"The piano is indispensable in the world of music."
— E. F. Droop & Sons, Washington, D. C.
"A Knabe, the gift that lasts a lifetime."—Gog-
gan's, Texas.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry up and buy."—Ross Piano
Co., Fort Worth, Texas.
"You cannot possibly buy a better gift than a
Steinway."—Grunewald's, New Orleans.
"Your home or your studio should have a grand
piano, for pleasure, fo" appearance."—Humes Music
Co., Columbus, Ga.
"For more than 67 years the Steinway piano has
enjoyed international fame for its extraordinary
beauty of tone."—Mellor's, Pittsburgh.
"Let's start something; start the child in music."—
W. M. Gulp, manager, Werlein Store, Monroe, La.
