a music cultivated and musicloving people. Music

Cleveland. and from a small beginning has grown to
immense proportions, now occupying the largest

music, and hundreds of popular music books of all
kinds. They also publish BrainarTs Musical World,
monthly magazine which is well known all over the
country In order to facilitate their large western

ed by them after the Chicrgo fire, they enabled
