BLIGH AN INVENTOR AS
WELL AS THEATRICAL EXPERT

Evidently determined to not only
keep even with the times, but beat 'em,
It. G. Bligh, the owner and manager of
the Bligh theatre, has designed cash
register, and has it in his box office,
that can perform every stunt but
speak outright, and is the only register
of the kind now in operation in the
United States.
The machine is a combination regis
ter Of cash, ticket taker and ticket de-
liverer. All that is necessary for a
patron to do upon entering the theatre,
is to lay the change on the counter. The
machine is then placed in operation,
and ticket, upon which is printed the
date, amount of money paid for same
and the time of day, is slipped into a
handy little pocket near the entrance,
where the patron can easily secure
same. Another ticket is also slipped in
to case on top Of the machine.
The register is operated by electrici-
ty, and, although more Of an expert
ment, operates perfectly. Mr.. Bligh de.
signed the machine, and the National
Cash Register Company constructed it.
Owing to the accuracy of the register
and the amount of, data it furnishes on
each sale, it is impossible to make mis-.
takes that cannot be readily discovered,
The invention is the result Of Salem
mans ingenious mind, and, while no
other machine Of the same make is in
operation as yet, all theatres will be
supplied before long, declares the cash
register representatives in this city.
