Negotiations were closed last week
consideration of $125,000. The deal was made through L. H. Bulller, manager of the F. E. Taylor company.
Extensive plans of enlarging and beautifying the theater have been announced by Its new directors. Alterations
will be made during the first half of January, when the theater will be kept dark. "The Rlvoll," as It will be
called, will open its doors to the public on January 16.
One of the most radical departures from present motion-picture houses on this coast will be an elaborate little
Japanese tea garden, which will be installed on the mezzanine floor. The candy booth In the present lobby will
be taken out and improvements of every kind will be made. Entirely new hangings, fixtures and furnishings will
be installed, . ' '

the New Edison.
He wanted a phonograph which would Re-Create 'music, not
merely reproduce it,
i
Now those three million people who have heard forty great
artists sing in direct comparison with the New Edison
know it is the greatest phonograph. They can tell you
that there is no difference between the singer's voice and
its Re-Creation by the New Edison. They have seen the
singer stand beside the instrument and have heard him
sing. They have seen his lips cease, and yet have heard
his voice go on without interruption. Had their eyes not
told them the New Edison was singing alone, these people
would have sworn the voice came from the living singer.
To Mr. Edison, it was worth three million dollars to be
able to give music-lovers the pleasure of hearing our great
singers when and where they would, exactly as they would
hear them on the concert platform and operatic stage,
Let us play your favorite Re-Creattons for you.
