Give a Thought to Music.
The best authorities urge that pi
anos should be inspected and cared
for regularly and frequently, and, by
all means, should be tuned, at least,
twice a year.
I have made piano -uning and al
lied arts my chief study and en
deavor, and will assure honest and
conscientious work in this vocation.
But it is evident that, to get the best
satisfaction and results from a piano,
it must be kept in tune, in regula
tion, in voice, in repair. This can be
achieved only by regular and fre
quent endeavors.
Just as the human voice ap
proaches perfection in the achieve
ment of the art of cultivation, only
by the best devised practice, so must
the piano retain its individuality by
the most cautious attentiveness to its
needs. Regular prices for irregular
tuning. Special prices for regular
and frequent tunings.
