Secured Quarters at Small's

? Sale of this Carload
of Fine Pianos. . . . ,
, ; Quick sales and email profits
is the slogan of Eiler's Piano
Itouae.
Owing to the quiet state of
business affairs back East for the
past several months, many of the
piano manufacturers have found
Itjemselves overloaded with pi
anos, and have looked to the
Cia&t e.8 fin outlet to unload their
large accumulated stock.
sEilers have ; contracted for
three hundred in addition to
their large orders for regular
shipment. Drastic cut by the
factories was a sufficient induce
ment to warrant this move on
Eiler's part. 1 - '
It means that extraordinary
price cutting will be resorted to
in1 order to sell these pianos and
to! do it quickly unheard of val
ues will be offered, and shrewd
piano buvers will be quick to
take advantage of these condi
tions. jOne carload will be sold in
Cprvallis. They will move; they
are bound t go at the prices
and terms that will prevail dur
ing this sale.
W. H. Weir, general agent for
Eiler's Piano House, assisted by
W. A. Hollenbeck, will be in
charge of the Corvallis sale and
next Monday at 9 o'clock the
ball will start rolling.
Don't delay! If you wish a
piano be on hand early. Pay a
sinall payment down and a little
every week or month and own a
piano.
Remember the place! Small's
.Bakery. Sale begins Monday

so we all were leaders, and our
campaign was only fairly launch-1 ?
ed before ' each and all had a
good following, which increased ,
in numbers so fast that when
we came to a final vote well !
the other places were all aban-.
doned and the delegates rushed
about the hall asking for one of
the Oregon badges which we had
printed on orange ribbon and
read 'Portland; Oregon, 1909.' I
walked about the hall and could
have, picked up hundreds of At
lantic City badges that had been
worn but at last thrown away
and the wearers came to us ask
ing for ours, which: were given
out to the number of 500, and if
I have to tell it myself, I was in
every act from the first to the
last, as Mr. Cookerly, of Walla
Walla, was a candidate for 2nd
vice president,' the leadership
fell to me as I had been in the
convention last year and begun
this 'Red Apple Canjpaigu
which so successfully resulted in
Portland being selected for 1909,
as was also Mr. Cookerly elected
to the place we asked for,' so tak
ing it from our standpoint, the
meeting was a very great suc
cess. ' . .:
I "At"the last moment before
the vote was taken, I rushed on
the platform and presented the
president with an enormous red
Oregon apple,' which . brought
the convention to the storm
center. In a few minutes the
declaration was 'Portland is se
lected as ouf next meeting place.'
The next day after the close
we spent in visiting about the
city and on Saturday we ran up
to Dayton, Ohio, Where we spent
(Sunday, visiting with Maud Wy
song, who was with us two years
ago there (at; Corvallis. Oh
Monday we visited one of the
most 'enormous -manufacturing
plants that I ever entered, the
National Cash Register Im
mense, perfection perfected.
