NEW PREMISES

OF BRISTOL PIANO COY

ATTRACTIVE AND WELL FITTED.

The Bristol Piano Company have now completed the finishing touches to their fine new shop in Revell Street, opposite Weld Street, adjoining the New Zealand Clothing Factory’s premises, which is a credit to

the firm, and a district improvement to the town. It is gratifying to find

the firm have solid confidence in the

future as demonstrated by their present enterprise. All inspection today by a “Guardian” representatives showed how complete were the arrangements made by the firm in their

new premises for the comfort of patrons, and to enable their fine stock to be properly displayed. Tiie double shop front is a very attactive one the contrasting colour scheme standing out very attractively. A spacious double entrance leads into the main shop. There are two spacious show windows enabling a good display to he made, which the striking name-stign effectively completes. *

Entering the main shop one is at once impressed with the careful thought given to the needs of the /business, with a view to providing the best possible service.

The interior is finished in a soft white and is furnished with elaborate fittings and counters all in carefully picked timber, mostly heart of red pine. These were made locally by Messrs If. and W. Ross to whom must be conceded great credit, as the closest inspection only increases one’s admiration.

Ample provision lias been made for the private demonstration of gramophone records or machines in tastefully designed and scientifically soundproof rooms. Here you may hear the wonderful ‘Barnard Recording Piano or that gramophone record you wanted. You may hear your music played for you or make you.r other musical purchases without disturbance. The lighting arrangements arc the very latest and equal to those seen in any of the larger centres, there being ample light with a total absence of; glare.

The ’builders were Messrs Duncan Bros., And their work speaks for itself, and has given every satisfaction to the owners. The new premises as previously mentioned forrii an attractive addition, where before was a

vacant space, and ’.brightens up the vicinity considerably. The (Company deserves every success in their enterprise which we fell sure will he their reward.

“Ye Faraway Bells” across the hay, Singing so sweet at the close of day, Whilst each fond lover, his story tells. Ring, O ring, ye .Faraway Bells! “Ye Faraway Bells!” I love your song, It cheers my heart when the world goes wrong, When I a cough or a cold endure— Your chant and Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure.
