Suppose that a great singer whom you had been invited to hear, or had paid an admit tance fee to hear, got up before you and sang in such way that his voice sounded like a talking machine. "What would you think, and what would you do? You would think thai the singer was try ing to play a joke on you and you would be offended, and if you had paid money tit the door, you would demand its return. No one expects realism from a talking machine You do not expect a singer's real voice to sound like his talking machine records, and of course you don't expect his talking ma ijiine records to sound like his voice. This is the vital distinction between the New Ednson and all talking machines. The New Edison is not a talking machine AVhen -you hear a great, artist in concert work or upon the stage, that artist's voice sounds exactly as it would sound when Re created by the Xew Kdison. In other words, there is absolutely no difference. t t t t t f f t . t t t ?. ? ? ? J t f ? ? ? ? ? t ? ? ? t t f ? ? ? y t : t ? By A FIELD GOAL CAMItlillKIE, Mass.. Nov. 11. ' The football tenuis of Harvard and Princeton met in their aiinnul game jhere this afternoon before the largest crowd of tho season. Close to 10, I DOO spectators were present when Ihe jtw'o elevens took the field under cx c client playing conditions. A high wind made I he handling of puuls dif ficult. A field goal by llorween in the third period was the margin of Har vard's victory over an almost equally matched Princeton eloveii in the stad ium today. Defensively the Tigers proved Harvard's equal and slopped many Crimson pluys which had been effective against other tennis. Of fensively, Harvard was able at sev eral times to gain . enough ground through Casey's elusive runs to threaten Princeton's goul. Only by abortive atteuipls nt long goals from the field did tlie Tigers menace the Harvard line. Princeton's reliance in its extrem ity was the forward pass from vari ous fonnations, hut genernlly that failed. Tho Tiger team, defeated for the first time this season, went into tears as they slouched off the field. Harvard snnpoiicrs hailed witli cjieers Casey for his effective run ning uttack and llorween for his ac curate toe. WINGED BY AVIATOR PARIS. Nov. 11.
