a magnificent work for tho mountain
boys and girls.
At the time the school was started,
the only way for the residents of Tal
lulah Fall* to give their children an
education was to send them to the one
room which constituted the school and
which wus above the Jail. Naturally
the resident* *hrank from Mending their

W E eau not write a de
scription of this instru
ment that will begin to
do it justice.
But wp can make the seeing
and hearing so convincing that
you can make a thorough in
vestigation and give yourself a
real musical treat yt. the sumo
time.
Here are the bare details of
the construction of this instru
ment of music; A caso of clear
est mahogany or quartered
oak, piano polished, about nine
inches square and thirteen
inches high, containing the
mechanism for playing any
size or make of disc record.
Equipped with a reproducer
that gathers every sound wave
and transmits it through a
scientific tone-chamber and out
of the two doors, by which its
volume may bo regulated at
your pleasure.
The friction of the needle is
ao reduced that this one fea
ture alone, in sdfflcient to soli
the instrument to any number
of well-to-do people who would
never before “have n talking-
machine in the house.” The
motor is a three-spring drive
of absolutely even apeed and
complete silence. When the
lid is raised, the turntable is
oxposed above the level of the
cabinet, making the replace
ment of records as easy ns n
penny in a slot. The number
of revolutions of , the turn
table is controlled by a levor
on a plainly marked dial, and
a start-and-stop devipo is right
there where you can operate it
by a mere touch.
Any of the loud, medium or
soft-tone needles can be -used,
as well as the sweet-toned
fibor needle which is so grow
ing in favor for homo use.
The tono volume of this talk
ing-machine when the doors are
open wide, is astonishing, and
its .tone quality is unexception
able.
Now consider just what we
are offering you: This instru
ment, complete and perfect,
with six splendid Double-Disc
records—twelve selections—
for $59 ca3h, or $7 down and
$5 per month at the same
price. No interest, no extras.

of Its closing during tho very *over*

of protest, for the children “wish they

they would be on the spot and there
would also be open to the pupil* a dor

that the dormitory will be self-eup-

ent funds are very much needed to
complete the payments and to buy the
necessary furniture. The teachers are
most faithful and the pupils are eager,
