Several men in the barracks are professional pianists. 'You can't Imagine how much pleasure the piano has given the boys," said an officer. 'It's a little lonesome you know, and nothing pleases them better than to sing. Mrs. Britten has the everlast ing gratitude of the militiamen.' " Mrs. Britten is well remembered in Heppner as the woman who car ried on such extensive relief work here at the time of the Heppner flood. Her chief aim in life appears to be to help others.

The NEW EDISON "The Phono graph with a Soul" actually sings. It has stood beside Marie Rap pold, Anna Case, Margaret Matzenauer, Giovanni Zenatello, Guido Ciccolinl, Jacques Ulrus, Ar thur Middleton, Thomas Chalmers, and a score of other great artists, and has sung duets with them and then sung in comparison with them. The music critics of five hundred of America's principal newspapers concede in the columns of their own papers that it is -only by watching the lips of the flesh-and-blood artists that they can tell wheher it is the artist singing or the New Edison singing.
