A town on its own line is one of the directory's headings. That is where the town on a maker's page comes from.
1nor does anything approaching an abiding society appear nearer than it did years ago. I rather fancy unity of purpose is what is required, the selection of a thoroughly competent conductor (and we have one), and then a strong, close rally and firm adherence to him, outside all personality, and solely on account of merit. "Palmam qui meruit ferat." LEONATUS.
3Dayton Doings
4DAYTON, Ohio, October 4, 1893.
5MATTERS musical promise well for the season. The Boulevard Conservatory of Music, operated by the Misses Lillie, Louie and Viola Butz, has been converted into "The Dayton College of Music," with a charter, and the above mentioned ladies, respectively, as president, vice-president and secretary, and Mr. Lawrence Butz, Jr., treasurer. Mr. Anthony Schath, of Cincinnati, Ohio, teacher of the violin department, is also second vice-president of the college. According to the catalogue, the Misses Butz teach the Italian method of singing; Mr. Schath, as mentioned, the violin; while the professors of the piano department, also the departments of the various orchestral instruments, instructors in the organ, ensemble classes and theory, are not named as yet. Musical matters, as can easily be foreseen, will now become centralized at the Dayton College of Music, and peace and prosperity will settle over our warring factions for ever and ever! Amen!
7Mrs. Ella J. Kneisly departed for Europe—Berlin in particular—recently for a year's study, leaving Professor Blumenschein minus a valuable and able assistant. Professor Blumenschein is teaching privately this season, sans assistants, sans conservatory. Prof. Howard Forrer Peirce has re-opened a studio after a year's retirement. Prof. Peirce is our very best pianist, and doubtless will reap his well-earned reward.
9Prof. G. Herman Marsteller, our talented violinist and teacher, is again with us after a long vacation in the health-giving mountains and the lake breezes of Chicago. He is handsomer than ever.
11Miss Idellette Andrews, the energetic, electric hustler of the profession here, is also returned from the place where everybody goes and returns, provided they are not killed by a railroad accident.
13Competition and Increased business have not only improved the quality but reduced the price; and we think, in view of these facts, coupled with our recent brilliant success in England, that we are entitled to even a larger share of your generous patronage.

21A THOUSAND TUNES.
22That's a large number, but the Symphonion plays it. The Symphonion is an unlimited music box instead of a cylinder playing from one to six airs. The Symphonion uses steel plates as shown herewith.
24These plates revolve and their teeth strike the teeth of the steel combs, thus producing the tones. Plates are changed in a moment. They may be bought by the hundreds and each plate represents a different tune. One may thus have sacred music, old favorites and latest songs of the day, as he chooses.
26The Symphonion is simple in construction and does not get out of order, as the old fashion music boxes always do. They are rich and melodious in tone and not the least expensive.
28We are headquarters for the trade and are prepared to quote lower prices than ever before with all the latest improvements.
