Edison Tone Test
For Fairmont People
ROSS FURNITURE COMPANY ls
MAKING ARRANGEMENTS
FOR IT

The music lovers Of Fairmont and
vicinity may have the opportunity in
the near future to attend an Edison
tone-test the unique musical and sci.
entific demonstration that has been
attracting wide attention in all parts
Of the United States during the past
few months.
1t ts a well known fact that most
monographs merely give an approx.
mate reproduction Of the human voice
"a reproduction that may be pleasing
to the ear but that falls far short OF
approaching the perfection Of the
warm and vibrant tones Of the living
voice.
When Thomas A. Edison invented
the first monograph and established
the fact that sound could be repro.
duced, he realized that, II an approx.
mate reproduction was a scientific DOS.
siblity, a perfect reproduction could
be secured.
He set the achievement OF the latter
task as a goal and for years he con.
centrated his energy and resources
on the work he had determined to &C.
complish.
A few months ago he announced
that he was ready to give new and
unique instrument OF music to the
world.
In order to demonstrate the degree
OF >perfection that he had attained in
1t. he gave a demonstration in Car.
negie hall, New York. In which Nine.
Marie Rappold OF the Metropolitan
opera, sang in unison with her voice
on the new Edison.
An audience of the most cultured
and discriminating musicians OF the
metropolis heard the test and found
themselves unable to distinguish be.
tween the voice and the instrument
and the voice of the singer.
The most noted and impartial music
critics Of the world, there to pronounce
judgment on the new invention, lis.
tened-and admitted that the living
voice had been re-created.
The demonstration in New York ar.
reused SO much comment in all parts
OF the country that today artists are
in great demand all over this country.
Many OF the music lovers of Fair.
mont have heard OF these tests and
expressed their desire to hear one OF
them.
1t is in an effort to crafty the de,
sire Of these people that the Ross
Furniture company the new Edison
dealers are arranging to have one OF
these demonstrations. The Grand
Opera House has been engaged for
October rs and an artist of great rep.
utation has been secured.
1t has been stated that no admission
will be charged formal invitations will,
cards OF introduction enclosed are be.
Ing prepared for mailing.
