toilet rooms'.! depot of the c6Th
'pany at Albiop, ...e company agreed to
jput in everything asked for but the fur
'nace. The towii of Genoa, where the
I Albion branch connects with the'Spauld
ing line, objected to any change which
: would run the Albion train through to

the demands of the people of Callaway
i for a service which would enable, them

A piano clearance of IMMENSE proportions Is slated here for" Saturday, and
there are a DOZEN reasons why such a "Clearance" Is NECESSARY. In the first
place, there are a few pianos and player pianos remaining from the SEGERSTROM
Btock; we HAD to leave the Segerstrom location, .Wednesday, because Aulabaugh,
the furrier, DEMANDED his room. Even so, the sale of the Segerstrom stock proved
to be the most GIGANTIC piano selling EVER held in Omaha, but the inevitable
odds and ends .MUST be disposed of NOW, here at the former Bennett establishment.
Then, another reason, we are REMODELING and ENLARGING our . PIANO
DEPT. here at Orklns; we are also adding the cleverest arranged display rooms
ever devised for VICTOR TALKING MACHINES and VICTROLAS; the stock of
these modern entertainers will be the LARGEST in the west and will be run In con!
nection with this PIANO DEPT.
We have no warehouses at our disposal; new pianos for fall are arriving;
Segerstrom pianoB must be housed, and space must be added 'for the new '."VIC
TOR" DEPT. Hence this Clearance must be QUICK and THOROUGH. ' 1
New Upright Pianos at low -as'.'. . . . $140
New Player Pianos at low as .... V . $325
Used Upright Pianos at low as . . ... $ 50
Used Player Pianos at low as $250
Square Pianos, Organs, your own price.
, Now then, GRASP an opportunity! BUY pianos when a dealer is absolutely '
FORCED to SELL. You can talk your own down payments and arrange your own
terms when dealers need space as MUCH as Orkins need space in their piano de
partment at THIS moment. A FEW of tbe values to be offered are' printed above,
but THEY are only SPECIMEN values; it takes time and space to quote them ALL."
If you can get right down to BUYING a piano on Saturday, Orklns will make it
worth your while. Room space gaps for carpenters to WORK in; THAT is what
must be had here NOW.
