Edison brought it into being to get good
music, good plays, good prose and good
poetry before the people who have COM
paratively little chance to hear any Of
these things.

ances Of comic and grand opera on its
stage. Photographs will play the music
and little puppets will do the acting.
Guido Bruno, writer and publisher of
quaint Greenwich village, was the one
who interested Edison in the plan. One
of Bruno's pet ideas is the spreading of
good pictures among the common people
by having prints of the best works hung
in grocery stores, barber shops, cigar
shops, shoe shining stands and other
places Of the sort where the proletariat
gather and where their eyes usually meet
only cheap and worthless reproductions Of
pictures of no value.
