I he Wester Music Co., Announces the Most Imperial Sale Ever Attempted in Atlanta’s History. $38,500 W orth High Grade Instruments, Consisting of 114 Upright, 4 Grands, 6 Player-Pianos and 43 Organs Will be Closed Out At COST OR LESS—CASH OR PAYMENTS The Grandest Money Saving Event, the Greatest Sale in Number and Quality of the Instruments Ever Known.

Out of Town People Should Write or Phone Us at Once. Open Even ings. 64 Peachtree Street. In announcing this great wale of pianos player pianos, organs, etc., we wish to take the public, the piano-buying public, into our confidence, make a plain state ment of facts and tell our very good rea sons for sacrificing this entire stock. Our constantly increasing business has so taxed our present quarters that ex tensive alterations, improvements and repairs have become absolutely neces sary. These alterations will necessitate the cutting away of division walls, changing elevator and stairway, laying new floors throughout and installing more piano parlors. Owing to the present overcrowded condition of our wurorooms, and in order that work may be done expeditiously and without interruption it is absolutely necessary that we dispose in some way of this immense stock. No need to tell you that the gritty dust arising from brick and mortar is injuri ous to the highly polished surface of the pianos. No need to tell you that pianos would be damaged by constantly moving them about, or that the workmen must have room. These things, while they make this sale necessary, scarcely need lie told. Now we have let the contracts for this work and the workmen are ready to tie gin as soon as we get this stock out of the way. We have to move these instru ments and it must be done quickly, at once. So, to make short work of it, we have decided to offer this stock at cost or less for two weeks, for cash or easy payments, to the people of this city and state. As we must move these pianos we have de termined to move them to homes of peo ple even at a great sacrifice in price rather than move them about from place to place building to building, with consequent ex pense and damage. We are prepared to make any sacrifice in order to accomplish this much desired result. We are not going to consider value or former price. We will shut our eyes to all loss and grin and take our medicine. We will not only cut out, cut off all profit, hut on certain lines of instruments we will make a big sacrifice on cost. In most cases the actual saving on upright pianos will be $125 to $250. On player pi anos $l5O to SSIOO, and on organs $25 to s^o. World’s Best Makes. In this sale will be pianos of the high est quality and reputation, in great va riety of styles and finishes, included in which will be found the following: Kranich & Bach, Kimball, A. B. Chase, Emerson, McPhail, I vers &c Pond, Krell. Hoffman, Whit’ney, Hinze, Davis & Sons. Singer, and many others, nearly all of them new some few are slightly store-worn, and some used pianos, and all marked accord ingly. The recent Memorial edition of the Henry County Weekly was a splendid piece of journalistic en terprise. The issue consisted of 32 pages and was printed on cal endar paper. Editor Johnson is a splendid newspaper man.—Greens boro Herald-Journal. One Price—Plain Figures.
