Why Should You ^ Have a Lester? O F the hundreds of different makes of pianos turned out in this country, less than ten percent are made complete under one roof. The other ninety are simply assembled parts, brought from a dozen different factories, and put together under some name, with small regard for their durability or m-isical qualities. For a third of a century we have been making LESTER Grand, Upright, Player PIANOS And knowing then as only manufacturers can know an instrument, we recommend them to you because: 1. They Are made ccmp.rte in the great Lester factories2. Regardless of price, there is no better instrument made. 3. Sold direct by the maker*, there are no middle profit*4. The Lester’* reputation is world-wide. It is a leader among high-grade instrument*. 5. Despite it* ad. .itted superiority, it is a* easy to own » Lester as one of the many, inferior assembled brands. 6. The Lester's durability and stamina are phenomin* 1 Let us show you how you can have one at once.
