A telegraphic appeal was sent late today by Mayor Davis to Postmaster Burle son that he take Immediate steps to brlngr about an adjustment of tho strike here among telephone operatives F actory W arerooms Midsummer Clearance PIANO SALE The response to this annual event is unprecedented. Never be fore has the musical public responded so instantaneously to an an nouncement such as the one we made a week ago today. We felt that our MIDSUMMER CLEARANCE SALE would be a success tills year, but we bad no idea that the response would be so overwhelming. So many of the bargains offered have been disposed of that we take this occasion to announce that our MIDSUMMER CLEARANCE SALE will close without notice as soon as the balance of the stock which was originally ofTered is disposed of. Positively no instruments will be included in this sale which were not originally set aside for it. Therefore, prompt action is necessary, as the supply is somewhat limited. It will pay you to visit these FACTORY WAREROOMS if you live within one hundred or even one hundred and fifty miles of Rich mond. for an opportunity like this probably will not be presented to you again?unless, perchance, circumstances should make it possible for us to do so. Such a possibility, however, is remote; and for that reason, we urge you to act at once. Here are Six of the best bargains remaining? Ask for nnrp;iiin No. :i. R. S.

If you have one to c.Nchange. or if you have a talk ing machine, we will allow full \aluc. on account. The above are but a few of the good bargains to be hud and were selected at random. Appreciation It has been gratifying to noto the swift response with which our announcement of a week ago has been met. CRAFTS ANNUAL MIDSUM MER CLEARANCE SALE has been successful for many years, but never has the success been quite so pronounced as the pres ent one. Never have so many mothers chosen worthy, used Pianos for their children to start on as during the past week. Such a response is indeed in spiring. It will serve as an in centive to offer bigger and bet ter values, if possible. It is delightful to meet our patrons and discuss with them, in person, their fondest hope?the education of their children musi cally. In these modern days, no child's education is complete un less it embraces music. Music is a potent factor in the moulding of character, and its influence upon home life cannot be over estimated. Though you may not now be ready to buy a Piano or Player Piano. it will pay you to visit otir Factory Warerooms merely for your own enlightenment, so that when vou get ready to buy you will be in better position to judge, values.' Vou will not be urged to buy. There will be no agents trailing after you when you leave. These Factory Warerooms employ no agents or collectors. This, to gether wiih the fact that we are situated outside of the high-rent district, makes it possible for us to offer such values as those an nounced for this sale. Owing to the fact that the stock is being rapidly reduced, our MIDSUM MER CLEARANCE SALE will close, without notice, as soon as the few remainders are sold. We are deeply appreciative of the patronage we enjoy, and hope to merit a continuance of it throughout our territory. President. We manufacture CRAFTS ROY AL PIANO POLISH.
