The days when you had this opportunity, but not the inclination, to devote to years of grinding practice have gone, and now when you have the inclination you find you haven't the Color Music makes it possible for the veriest beginner to play in a day, and we can prove this to you in a few moments. In fact, you begin to play at once. You can in a day, sometimes less, play the accompani- ment to any song, either from Trew's Color Music Books or you can play harmonious chords in a proper sequence to accompany any song or air in any key. Color music makes a musical education possible within the means of any one. CARL BUSCH, Director of the Kansas City Symphony Orches- tra, says: “Color Music is so very simple in its construction and manipulation that it must appeal to every one who wishes to play, but has not had the opportunity of devoting years of study for this pur- pose. Color Music is especially ingenious in enabling one to trans- pose into any key at sight.” CHARLES EUGENE BANKS, the well known music critic, says: “I think Color Music a most wonderful discovery. It intro- duces a new principle in the interpretation of music. It sweeps away a network of barriers and lets us pass directly to the heart of the thing in view. “Color Music makes it not only possible, but apparently easy, for any one with any degree of intelligence to sit down to the piano and play anything arranged after this method. “I do not know how far this principle may extend in music, but it would seem that this musician has opened up an avenue which may make the composition of music a much simpler affair. Anyway, she has something that gives every member of the family, even in the most remote farmhouse, the power to play either the piano or organ without any previous instruction whatever. Thus months of weary practice are eliminated, even had the aspirant the time, opportunity and money to get léssons for the purpose.” Special Demonstration Begins Tomorrow Eilers Music House When you buy the complete Color Music System of piano playing during this demonstration, we will explain exactly the sys- tem—which is simplicity itself.
