In beauty of tone, In clearness and resonance, and in appearance it is certain to be equally gratifying. It will be an ornament to your home, a source of daily enjoyment to your family, a delight to your friends. I , . The Columbia Grafonola: is the realization of the dream of two decades the possibility of making hearers forget the pres ence of the instrument a possibility that has made the Colum bia laboratories the scene of unceasing experiments until tht dream became the accomplished fact of today.
