Page Fifteen GIVE THEM THIS GREAT ADVANTAGE

.. . TO KNOW AND LOVE GOOD MUSIC

iti) No one really knows the influence music has upon a child. The strength of character it imparts, the inspiration it awakens, are qualities which it alone can engender. The love of music is a price- less heritage. And it is a privileged child whose parents permit him to develop his talents on what is both the strongest and the most nearly perfect instrument, a Steinway. With its marvelous tone, its quick and sure response to childish fingers, the Instrument of the Immortals brings an inspiration of its own to the child's instruc- tion. You may think that the Steinway is expensive. But in the long run, it is the least expensive of pianos! With a deposit of ar little as ten per cent of the total cost (used pianos are accepted in partial exchange), the model you select will be delivered at

once to your home. The balance of the payments then will be extended over a period of three

years. . . . Won't you come in and listen to the Steinway?

A new Steinway Upight piano can be bought for a total as low as $875 A new Steinway Baby balance Grand at $1375 10% down three years Used pianos accepted in partial exchange. If there is no Steinway dealer near you, write for information to Steinway & Sons, Steinway Hall, 109 West 57th Street, New York. STEINWAY The Instrument of the Immortals
