HUMAN TOUCH IN PLAYER PIANO
GIVES REMARKABLY REAL EFFECT

one Of 'ho hig arguments used By
sale$m, I'll talking machines is that
The pOSsessnr Of a marhine can sing
INTO it. talk into il or play into it and
Ia:cr on reproduce his own efforts on
he records. says H. NJ Smith in The
Indianapolis sun. This has Slbt!e
appeal ~ The innate vanity Of the hu
man mind and often closes a sale when
nothing else will do it.
II is not too much TO eNpec' the
same idea will be used before long by
piano statesmen in selling pianos and
playerpianoS to prospective buyers.
Hands May Remain Idle.
Already the reproducing idea of the
photograph has beer utilized by the
inventive genius Of the playerpianO
factory and it is now quite possible
for the pianist to sit at his instrument
and BY pressing a button set in motion
machinery which will cause his own
interpretations to be reproduced and
made available for occasions when he
prefers to have his hands remain idle.
And the ordinary individual, who
likes to hear the musical efforts OF
others, will no longer be compelled TO
rest content with a street piano tumble
of tinkling sounds, but will have the
sweet satisfaction of hearing the prop
er Interpretation of the virtuoso him
self. guaranteed by his signature.
And more than that, the vrtuOsO
can make sure the Interpretation is at
its best in making corrections after he
has played the score.
How Judgment Changed.
1t was not SO many moons ago VIC
looked rather diStaStefully at the even
ing before a playCrpianO and we felt
tempted TO stuff cotton in our ears or
wear earmuffs to shut out the mechan-
ical dishpan serenades that emanated
therefrom.
That was in the day of the so-called
mathematical doll" where half note
was denoted by a puncture in the roll
a certain number of millimeters long
and the whole note was denoted by
puncture just twice as long. The
chords were marked by punctures in
exact alignment and the entire effect
of the piece when played was that of
machine.
Mechanical Effect Gone. ,
Now, however, all is changed. No
longer does the machine-like monOton-
Gus rhythm exist. The man who
handles the playerpiano may be just as
great VirtuOso in his own way as
the man who plays manually. Indeed,
the man who originally played the
piece manually may be the one who
finds the greatest enjoyment in repro
ducing his own work from the roll. /

GAULT MAY FACE
PROSECUTION

John ]. Gault, j marine. now en-
route to the mainland in the transport
Sheridan, may be returned to Homo
lulu at the instance of the military
authorities to answer to a charge of
participating in an affray in which
it is alleged that the enlisted man in
company with three other soldiers,
committed an assault on Hackman
McCarty, the jehu claiming that he
was robbed of ten dollars in change
in the meele.
McCarty has filed charges to the
effect that in attempting to swear out
a complaint against the soldier, he
was advised by officials connected
with the police department, to consult
with an attorney.
Deputy Sheriff Rose takes occasion
to register an emphatic denial to this
charge.
According to statement from
Sheriff Jarrett, the hackman called at
the station finally declared that he
was far from positive as to estab-
fishing the identity of the soldier
who he alleges struck him and robbed
him of his money.
The police insist that the stories
of the affray as related by the hack
man were more or less contradictory
The jehu is said to have been given the
opportunity of visiting the trOOpship
before departure for San Francisco
with a view of passing upon the en-
listed men on board and aid in
discovering his alleged assailant. This
offer is declared by Jarrett as having
been declined.
