TELLS PUBLIC
TO BUY PIANOS
RIGHT AWAY
Unusual Demand Exists
for Pianos at This
Time

In an interview with = Caledon-
ian-Record reporter To-Day Lyman
X. Harvey of H;-rvey's New Music
Rooms threw much light on the
peculiar situation IN the present
piano market. "There is a big
shortage declared Mr.. Harvey,
"of the popular priced pianos from
1928 to $3.50"
This shortage Mr.. Harvey went
on to explain is due to a variety
OF reasons. Employees in piano
factories during the past year have
in many cases left the piano indus
try to seek work in other branches
of labor. Thus r.uny skilled piano
makers have been lost to the
piano industry.

vey Cannot be made overnight
From three to seven years are re-
quired to train artisans capable of
working on good pianos.
"Then, too, there are other him
ORANGES to the industry. Railroad
difficulties and the uncertainty
that develops IN the procuring Of
raw materials due TO embargoes
have made the lot of the piano
manufacturer an extremely trying

How about the demand for
pianos just at present." the re-
porter inquired.
"ln July and August uncertain
buying conditions prevailed and
the public purchased a compare
lively small quota of pianos. Now
there Is a rush and the demand for
popular priced pianos has ~increas-
ed manifold.
"Will the piano dealers be able
to supply the demand?"
Those dealers who had the
foresight to see the change in the
market and purchased heavily of
pianos this summer will be able
to meet this demand for a time at
least. Many piano factories have
already sold out their entire out
put.
"You would thea encourage us
toners to buy at once, Mr.. Har-
vey?," he was asked.
"Certainly. There is no time
Ike the present. Speaking for
Harvey's New Music Rooms,
know that we can supply the local
demand for the present at least.

later may be disappointed"
is here any appreciate reduc-

quired the reporter.
a. Yes. Popular priced pianos

 We intend to teach the children how 10 study. With some students, there is a tendency to overdo the mental effort, when less rigid con centrstion will get better results. With others, We can find out what hapdicaps their capacity for having good lessons.
