it"
In a test of 'direct cornparisonj inadeTast' even
ing at the Grand Theatr'Saleni, before a large
audience, Thomas A. Edison's new phonograph
scored a complete and convincing triumph
Betsy : Lane Shepherd, the eminent soprano,
sang in. direct comparison with the Edison Rec
ords of her voice on the New Edison. To every
ear there was no difference between Iter living
voice and her Re-Created voice.
. This is the most drastic phonograph test
known. No other phonograph, lias even sus
tained it. No other phonograph has even at
tempted it. '
The New Edison's marvelous performance
of yesterday vindicates everything that has
beep said or claimed for its perfect realisml -
. Betsy 'Lane Shepherd stood on the stage next
to a shapely Chippendale cabinet. - She began .
to sing. r Her golden ' notes soared over the .
Grand, bringing all under Its magic spell. '
Halfway- through her song, she suddenly . living artists.
stopped singing -The New Edison, at her side,
took up her song, and continued it alone.'
Singer and phonograph thus alternated,
throughout the song. , ; ' ;
; The only way the audience could be , sure
which was singing, was by watching Betsy
Lane Shepherd's lips o exactly like the living
voice was the Re-Created voice. j ! '
Jacques : Glockner made the same lest . of
comparison with the Edison Records of .'his
'cello selections. Always the same , Result
there was no difference between the Re-Created
performance and the living performance.
, Proof was piled upon proof! Evidence was
'massed on evidence! The end of Hfie' concert'
ound the audience absolutely and completely
convinced, through its own personal experience,
;that,lhere is no difference) 'between ah rtfst's
living performance and Us Re-Creatibn by tne
New Edison that listening to the New Edison
is, in literal truth, "theQame as listening to the
liviny nrfisfs. v i '
