the utmost limit of time in which
to complete the purchase. -
Tersely stated, the Eilers plan
has saved to the piano buyer ev-
erything that systematic, economf-
cal, correct, careful and up-to-
date business method and man
agement can effect.
Thus there is not today a ham,
let of even the smallest imagin-
able size where there is not to be
found one or more of Eilers Mu-
sic House customers and loyal adj
herents. y,
Thus the Eilers plan has en-
abled hundreds of thousands ~
homes to secure high est-graj
pianos for money that heretofor6y
and otherwise has been paid for
medium grades.
The Eilers plan insured rigid
inspection of every instrument by
a competent expert before it left
the factory, and it made certain
the correct and careful handling
from source to final destination.
And the Eilers plan gave to
each buyer a definite, honest,
trustworthy, binding guarantee.

A little over 26 years ago, Mr..
ID. s. Johnston, the late Presi-
dent of Eilers Music House,
started In the piano business in
Tacoma. The first home of the
Pioneer House was small tent
store with rough fir floor. The
business grew and prospered
and was merged later with the
Eilers interests on the Pacific
Coast. From the days when
the purchase of one car of pianos
was a big event-from the day
OF one small store, the organiza-
ton has grown TO forty. From
selling a few hundred pianos in
year, 1t has developed until
now the sales are numbered by
many thousands.
Founded upon ideas and ideals
then altogether new; ideas that
were fundamentally so sound,
principles that we're so correct
that in these 26 years this enter
prise has grown from compare
lively humble beginnings to the
Nations Largest" Grown from
handling two or three of the
Nations best makes, to handling
over thirty of them. Grown
from sales records that then
seemed big, even though they to-
tailed but thousands, to sales rec.
ords now that exceed the million
dollar mark during any three
months period.

piano selling, combined with the
colossal purchasing power repre-

In every community where an

This success is due:

Third, by conducting every

Fourth, by making the buying
