PATRIOTIC WEEK

Patriotic Week To B Obierved by Richmond. Everyone Should Job in Its Observation

It's the playing of our grand old Patriotic Airs. Every family is urged by mayor and council to join in the observation of Richmond's first Patriotic Week. This observation will be intensified and will mean so much more to you if .you add to it our National and other Patriotic music. A Starr Piano or Player Piano will put just the proper spirit to your observation and will not only give you pleasure during this week, but will last for years. Make this event the time to secure that piano you have thought for so long you would buy. We have in our salesrooms every style and there is surely one here that will be just exactly what you want.
