HARDY WILLIAMSON IN
CONCERT AT OLIVER
lyric Tenor Gives Demonstration of
Recreation OF His Own
Voice.

The recital given last evening at
the oliver theater by Hardy Will
hanson. the popular lyric tenor. was
UNIQUE in several ways. II had been
announced that on this occasion Mr..
Williamson consented that a labor
atory recreation OF his voice,
made By Thomas a. Edison, should
be heard in comparison.
What is a "labortory re-cre-
alton" Of a voice? Merely a phon-
ographic eproductiOn-but such a
reproduction as had never been
heard from any talking machine.
The fact that Mr.. Williamson
voice and his re-created voice were
the same is due TO the fact that Mr..
Edison has perfected a new art
sound recreation 1t was the re-
suit of a lifelong ambition Of Mr..
Edison's 10 so re-create music that
the recreation could not be distin-
guished from the original. AS usual,
Mr.. Edison has succeeded and to
prove il Mr.. Williamson sang in
unison with the recreation of his
own voice. He paused from time
to time permitting the recreation
10 be heard alone. Except perhaps
for a smaller volume OF tone one
could not be absolutely sure just
when MIR. Williamson sang anc
when he did not-except by watch
ing his lips-even then one could
not be absolutely sure as he some
times formed the words with his
mouth without uttering a sound. IT
was convincing proof that the great
wizard has added another TO his al
ready long list of revolutionary in
ventions.
During some selections Mr.. Will
hanson varied his method Of illus
tration by singing continuously
counter-melody TO the solo that he
originally. recorded for Mr.. Edison.
The result was a duet, but such a
duet. Where could any two artists
be found who would be in such &C
cord as TO enunciation and express
sion as Mr. Williamson with him
self! And where could any two
voices be found that would be so
alike in quality as the same voice,
for it was the same voice.
Several delightful whistling num-
bers were given by Miss Elsa Win
ter of Chicago, which added very
much to the pleasure of the even
ing
Mr. EdisOn's new musical instru-
ment. called the New Edison. was
the medium by which these re-cre-
atoms were played.

OF Iowa, against DIR. +. Ady of
West Liberty, who was held re-
sponsib BILE for the injuries inflicted
upon Lemke by his auto, although
the Doctor was not driving thecar.
Lemke's victory in court is the
climax of a five years fight in the
Iowa Courts, and it establishes
the precedent that the head of the
family becomes responsible for the
injuries inflicted by his automobile
whether he or any member of his
family in his absence drives the
car, when it does damage.
The son of Dr.. Ady drove the
car while the father was away, and
frightened the team of horses that
Lemke was driving, causing them
to run away and throw Lemke and
his sisters out of the rig, injuring
them. The accident happened in

small but the principle is big

that abnormally high prices will con

A CALL TO PATRIOTIC
SERVICE Do YOUR BEST

1t is we'll for us to remember
the strongest military power in the
world. No one can foretell when
the war will end. No one can fore
see what sacrifices we will be
called upon to make. 1t may be the
United States will be obliged to
make j supreme effort before vic
tory comes.
We cannot afford to take chances.
We must not only raise large
army and equip a large navy, but
we must also mobilize our indust-
ries. If there is any one lesson that
this war has taught so far, it is
that it is war of manufacturers
and farmers as we'll as war of
soldiers.
The greatest contribution that
Iowa can make to this nation and
to our allies this year is to increase
the food supply 1t is our solemn
patriotic duty to do this. The burd-
en- OF food production rests heavily
upon us. How shall we meet it?
Production in Iowa is limited by
a shortage of labor. The necessary
labor however is available in this
state if it can be trained and used
City boys under military age
should help during the vacation on
some farm, or to take care OF a
j garden, or to do some other produc-
tive labor.
City girls should be taught how
to save and can or dry all surplus
garden and fruit products. This can
easily be accomplished through DEM
onstrations in city schools. They
should also receive Instructions in
in this work.
Arrangements should be made with
our commercial club and others to
release help to- work on farms
- iss:iQg the rush periods. 1t will be
patriotic thing to do in this year
of labor shortage.
Many people who are retired will
be glad to help so far as they are
physically able. In fact many farm
ers who have retired have signified
their intention to do all the work
possible this summer.
A sentiment against idleness
should be deveoped through the
papers, churches schools commercial
clubs and all other organizations.
In war time no one is too old Oh
TOO young to do their bit. 1t is
the duty of one and all to buckle
down to this business of winning
the war to the end that it may
be over as quickly as possible and
thus many lives will be saved.
