I have already Had the pleasure of meeting a number oi the Raleigh folks, and I am impressed with the fact that they are "real folks." And that just brings us back; to the thought that we must offer REAL Piano values! Of course, we have been doing business witH jhe North' Carolinian for a good many years, but we have lacked th personal contact which we now have and which is so much' to be desired in building a great business. -y ' " In opening our Raleigh store we determined to organize a local force which would conduct the 'business in accordance with our policies; and with that ideal in mind, we were fortunate in securing ,the' services of Mr. Theodore H. Bower as District Manager, and he, in turn, has surrounded him self with such able assistants as Mr. A. C. Stallings. Mr. , Karl Essrich and Miss Velma Stallings. This, however, is only the nucleus of a greater organization. We want North' Carolinians to expect A good deal of u more, than they do of any othes music store,' for we expect to serve them better. Wa want them to be more exacting. We feel sure they will find that our Raleigh store will measure up to the highest standards. They will find Mr. Bower aver ready, willing' and able to please. , t ' Mr. Bower is a man of wide experience in the Piano trade. He was associated with us in Richmond before taking charge of our Raleigh headquarters, so that ht has been thoroughly imbued with our policies and ideals. , We bespeak' for him a courteous reception at your hands, arid hope to merit, through him, your confidence and patronage.
