Day after day pretty Juanita Leslie attended to the wants of customers, gaining many friends by her amiabilitj and charming manner. Love and romance were far from the thoughts of the practical young lady, who was deeply interested in her work and rapidly becoming a good business woman. Then one day there breezed into the department a sailor man, a good looking sailor, a captain of a merchant vessel-bound for Australia. He loved music and wanted a good h.g supply of new records to enliven the long journey to the Antipodes. Miss Leslie demonstrated record after record, he bought them all.

EMERSON SEEN IN "HITCHY KOO" Artistic Scene in Raymond Hitchcock's New Show Will Feature Emerson Phonographs and Records — Unusual Stage Setting An unusual stage scene of significance and value to Emerson dealers will be introduced this season in the first road company of Raymond Hitchcock's new "Hitchy Koo" show. In this show there will be presented a scene featuring an Emerson Shop, in which the chief comedian of the show, Stan Stanley, occupies the center of the stage. Mr. Stanley uses a dialogue wherein he inquires for many songs, and twenty-five Broadway beauties emerge from a life-size Emerson phonograph and sing the refrains of the different songs, all of which are presented on Emerson records. As Raymond Hitchcock's "Hitchy Koo" is one of the most popular revues of the year, Emerson dealers will have a splendid opportimity to utilize timely publicity in connection with the appearance of the revue in their respective localities. The scene will be handsomely staged and the featuring of Emerson phonographs atKl Emerson records will enable the dealers to work in co-operation with this idea. August and September are still ahead and these months hold great possibilities for the dealer who is in the habit of getting what he goes after. "The Music Without the Blur!"
