Ihe PHONOGRAM SUBSCRIPTION THIRTY CENTS A YEAR SINGLE NUMBERS, FIVE CENTS Published by HERBERT A. SHATTUCK at Number 135 Fifth Avenue, New York City NOVEMBER NOTES. \Dear Editor: Now that the New Reproducer is an assur. d fact, I will await its coming-out very patiently, as you advise me to in your letter. As long as it is louder (and doesn’t scratch the way the disc-record sound-box does) I shall be satisfied. The pointers you give me are worth many times over the cost of becoming a Member of The Order of the Phonogram. Such advance information is certainly more than a “ Theoretical Advantage” mentioned on the Certificate ofthe ORDER. It is worth the whole price of admission to be "put next.” John Wright, Hackensack, N.J. With this issue of The Phonogram, the alphabetical series of jingles comes to an end. The closing words of the Z it for Zulu rhyme “ The Phonograph pleases them all with its airs,” are the gospel truth. Neither this nor the last century has produced an instrument which has given so much amusement to young and old alike. These jingles have pictured the Phonograph in twenty-six different phases of usefulness, but they do not represent by any means all of the uses to which the Phonograph can be ap- plied. If our alphabet contained four hundred letters like the Chinese, I believe we*d find the snpply of fitting rhymes would still not be exhausted. Back numbers con. taining Jingles can be had of the Publisher for five cents each (excepting Nos. 1 and 4): or Bound Vols. I II III, for $1.00, 60 cents and 60 cents respectively.
