MUSIC ROLLS QUICKLY MADE
Useful Machine Designed Especially
for the Use Of Retail Dealers
Recently Put on the Market.

Designed especially for the use of
retail dealers, a compact machine that
perfOrates music rolls for use in play
err pianos is being introduced. The ap-
paratus Is described in the Popular
Mechanics Magazine. 1t Is capable of
making from one to is records ut a
time from sheet music, and will also
turn out copies Of any standard roll.
It's operation Is said to be so simple
that satisfactory work can be done by
persons who are not musicians. The
particular advantage Of the machine
seems to be tia. it enables a small
dealer to fill his customers orders
promptly without having to carry a
large, expensive stock. It also obyl-
ates the Inconvenience that confront
patrons when special orders have to
be mailed to a factory before their
wants can be supplied. Since 16 sheets
can be perforated simultaneously, a
dealer in making a roll to order has an
opportunity to add Is records to his
stock with no expense other than the
bare cost Of the paper and spOols.
