The home was converted into a veri-

MISS ALICE VERLET CHARMED
HER AUDIENCE.

The music lovers of Covington who
availed themselves of the invitation
to attend the concert by Miss Alice
Verlet at Parkview Theatre will rot
forget the experience.
When it was announced that Miss
Verlet would sing in unison with a
recreation of her own voice on the
New Edison which stood upon the
platform we were skeptical. To at
tempt to match this splendid voice
with a sound produced mechanically
by thing of steel and wood! 1t was
preposterous!
When the first notes of the Song
came to our ears we were waiting
breathlessly. And we continued
breath,ess throughout the evening.
At first Miss Verlet's voice and the
voice from the mahogany cabinet be-
side her came to US indistingu sh-
ably blended-voices SO completely
one that no ear could detect theil
duality. Suddenly we realized that
he lips of the singer had ceased to
move, though her voice went giori-
ously on. She sang again, and again
stopped. Only by watching her lips
could we tell whether the voice came
from her throat, or from the magic
box at her side 1t was her VOC
in both cases-there was no ques-
ton of that from the first. No mere
echo or record" could make us
doubt the evidence of our own eyes.
Miss Verlet's voice was there, wheth-
err she sang or was silent. Equal in
tone. in clearness, and in beauty, 1t
filed the room, literally re-created
by some magic power of our be-
wilderment.
The climax of the entertainment
came when the theatre was darker
ed, so that we could no longer see
the singer, and had to judge by our
ears alone whether the song as we
heard it was the voice or re-creat On.
We vacillated from one opinion to
the other-now we thought Miss
Verlet was singing-noW tnat we
heard the New Edison alone. The
notes of the last verse filled the
theatre. They were so clear, SO
true. so beautiful that everyone IN
the audience was convinced that Miss
verIet was singing as we had NOT
known that even she could sing.
Suddenly the lights flashed on again,
showing the stage empty, save Tor
the graceful mahogany cabinet from
which f1oated forth the final Won
derful phrases of the song.
Re-creation-we had never beltev-
ed it before, perhaps We had
thought it merely trademark
catchword. But for those who at
tended the tone test-$re-creation IS
no longer a word-it is reality. A
wonderful new art presented to the
world by the greatest of living in
yentors-Thomas A. Edison.
The recital was arranged by Mr.
Frank Patecek.
