This was the daring test undertake
en- last night at Methodist Church by
Thomas A. Edison. He sought to
prove that no difference exists be-
tween the voice Of the living artist
and its RECREATION by the New
Edison. The unsteady cultured of
Skowhegan were invited to pass
Judgment. No test could have been
more exacting.
Glen Ellison made comparison after
comparison. The mystifed audience
tried vainly To catch a difference be
tween the original rendition and its
RECREATION by the New Edison. No
one could tell one from the other.
II was a triumph whole and com
plete for the New Edison.

Those present at Methodist Church
last night saw Glen Ellison walk onto
the stage. They saw him take mis-
position next to a beautiful cabinet
They saw his lips give voice to the
opening lines of Roaming in the
Cleaning Then suddenly his lips
were still-but the song kept flowing
on.
How came this They were hear
ing Mr. Elison's voice. yet Mr. Ellison
was not singing. The entire audience
gasped as it slowly realized that it
had been unable TO distinguish be-
tween Mr.. Ellsons voice and the RE
CREATION Of that voice by the New
Edison.

FORD GOES BACK
PRE.WAR BASIS
Restore Business to Normal

Detroit. Sept. 2l.- Henry Ford to-
day announced a reduction OF prices
on all Ford Motor Company pro-
ducts to pre-war basis as q step
towards restoration OF business to
normal conditions. In state,
ment Mr.. Ford declared that pres
| ent business conditions demanded
that some practical effort be made
to bring economic conditions back
+ to normal, that the business Of
the country may be Stabilized and
that the progress. prosperity and
Icontentment Of our people may be
restored"
Inquiry tonight among heads Of
other automobile industries failed
to indicate whether the Ford an
nouncement prcsages general de-
feline of motor car prices. A num-
Der Of manufacturers declined to
comment.
Mr.. Ford declared that since the
war has ended war prices also
should be reduced. :"
There is no wisdom" he said,
l''in trying to maintain an artificial
standard of values for inflated prices
Ionly retard progress
! There is lull in business. gen.
orally" the statement continues.
"Peopleln every walk OF lite are
waiting for prices they know are
unnatural to become lower"
Manufacturing plants are being
shut down all over the country and
in every inc there is growing in
activity because the volume OF con-
sumption is growing less and less
through the seIf-denial of people
who realize the injustice Of the
situation.
Labor is being thrown out Of
employment. but Notwithstanding
this. there has heen little change in
the cost of living.
although rich in natural re-
sources the country's progress'is be-
ing held practically at a standstill
through the greed of profiteers.
Now is the time to call a halt to
war methods, war prices and war
greed. 1t may be necessary for
Everybody to sacrifice a little but IN
1.-The end 1T will be most profitable
for the sooner we get the business
of the country back to pre-war con-
ditions, the sooner will the lives Of
our people become natural and pro-
gress. prosperity and contentment
be restored"
The price reduction on the Ford
iproducts ranges from IA to 81 per
cent and is effective Immediately.
There will be no reduction in wages
at the plants. it was announced.
