Half a Million People

_have learned music this easy way_

You, too, Can Learn to Play Your Favorite Instrument Without a Teacher

_Easy as_ A-B-C

Yes, half a million delighted men and women all over the world have
learned music this quick, easy way.

Half a million--500,000--what a gigantic orchestra they would make! Some
are playing on the stage, others in orchestras, and many thousands are
daily enjoying the pleasure and popularity of being able to play some
instrument.

Surely this is convincing proof of the success of the _new, modern
method_ perfected by the U.S. School of Music! And what these people
have done, YOU, too, can do!

Many of this half million didn't know one note from another--others had
never touched an instrument--yet in half the usual time they learned to
play their favorite instrument. Best of all, they found learning music
_amazingly_ easy. No monotonous hours of exercises--no tedious
scales--no expensive teachers. This simplified method made learning
music as easy as A-B-C!

It is like a fascinating game. From the very start you are playing
_real_ tunes, perfectly, by _note_. You simply can't go wrong, for every
step, from beginning to end, is right before your eyes in print and
picture. First you are _told_ how to do a thing, then a picture _shows_
you how, then you do it yourself and _hear_ it. And almost before you
know it, you are playing your favorite pieces--jazz, ballads, classics.
No private teacher could make it clearer. Little theory--plenty of
accomplishment. That's why students of the U.S. School of Music get
ahead twice as fast--_three times as fast_ as those who study
old-fashioned, plodding methods.

You don't need any special "talent." Many of the half-million who have
already become
