30 THE PHONOGRAM the Chorus, “ Coon-Coon-Coon-1 wish my color**— here at this word “ color ** we find trouble for the singer, as he takes the high note for this word. He has forgotten to move his head away from the horn and the consequences are that this word blasts or over-vibrates. So he must try it again and must remember that when a high note is sung he must move his head away from the horn to compensate for the extra vibration. Two or three attempts with your singer will enable him to make a good record and you should not become dis- couraged if you do not succeed the first time.

At the recent Convention of the National Shorthand Reporters* Association held at Buffalo, which Association ii composed of about seven hundred official court reporters from various parts of the country, considerable interest wa» shown in the Phonograph for use in connection with tran- scribing notes in court reporting. For the purpose of giving those present at the Convention a practical demonstration, Mr. Clarence E. Walker, an official court reporter from Louisville, Ky. (who recently reported the Goebel murder trial there), brought to Buffalo his whole outfit, consisting of the Phonograph and even his typewriter operators, and gave a practical demonstration of the rapidity with which notes could be transcribed by a court reporter by reading his notes into the machine and turning the cylinders over to several operators for transcribing.
