T^O piano can be any better than the men who make
it. If ideals are Ipw the instrument must suffer.
The men who produce Hobart M. enable Instru­
ments have never forgotten this in all their years of
success. They permit no man to participate in the cre­
ation of the Hobart M. Cable piano who does not share
their purpose to produce a musical instrument for the
sake of music. ..TTie community of^wofkers here is now
numerous enough to make pianos in larger number
without a sacrifice of musical ideals. This announce­
ment is now made to a selected audience to inform them
of these Highest Quality Instruments dedicated to lov­
ers of music. Hobart M. Cable Instruments have never
before been announced publicly. Over 50.000 are in
homes everywhere.

SAXON
Shipments Resumed
at Once
Production of Saxon cars was tem­
porarily iptemjpted due to a fire
which partially destroyed our main
.plant in Detroit on Saturday morn­
ing. February 3.
However, we had under lease addi­
tional factory quarters of greater floor
space than the plant which was dam­
aged by fire. New equipment has been
installed here and Monday morning,
February 12th, we began. building
cars, in this newly equipped irfant.
We have a large suw>ly of material
such as motors.- axles, frames, bodies,
rims, fenders, radiators, etc., stored
in our plants outside the main plant
*nd this is available for immediate

use in building cCrs. We have on
now a supply of all parts necessary
in assembling finished cars.
In spite of the temQprary delay, we
expect to complete our shipments to
all our dealers on schedule time. For­
tunately our Sen’ice Department was
not touched by the fire ^d we are
able to give immediate 'attention to
the need of ail Saxon owners from
our large supply of service parts.
The loss sustained by the fire was
fully covered by insurance.
We will continue to build Saxon cars
good and to build them in quantity.
