Chicago Finds Radio
i Has Aided Music Sale
CHICAGO. Radio and the
phonograph have extended the
desire for individual musical ac
complishment, if a consensus of
reports - from Chicago's music
houses reflects general reaction.
The sale of sheet music was
found never to be so great. The
demand for band and orchestra
instruments was never bo brisk.
The principal stimulus was de
clared to be the popularization of
radio.
The statement of John Philip
Sousa before a congressional com
mittee that radio had brought
with it a "listening public" which
no longer bought nor played
sheet music, was not echoed in
these music stores. Representa
tives of the leading makers of
musical instruments and the pub
lishers of sheet music cited figures
to show that the trade was grow
ing steadily, .especially since the
perfection of radio.
At Shipley's the ladles of Salem
have satisfied themselves that they
can get the finest spring and sum
mer frocks, coast and dresses ever
shown In this city.
