The Edison phonograph monthly (Jan-Dec 1916)

EDISON PHONOGRAPH MONTHLY, JULY, 1916 15 RECORD ORDERS NOW FILLED PROMPTLY THE heavy demand for all classes of Blue Amberol records during the late winter and early spring overtaxed the capacity of the manufacturing department to such an extent that there was some delay in filling some of the large orders sent in by the jobbers. Inasmuch as the jobbers could not secure the records promptly, it was impossible for them to supply the dealers with some numbers. While the condition was one that was very annoying to all concerned, it was caused by conditions that could not be foreseen and was entirely unavoidable. The improvements that have been made in the Blue Amberol record, together with the consistently high quality of the selections that are being recorded for the Amberol trade, created a strong demand around the first of the year, and during January and February exceptionally large orders were received from many parts of the country. As a result of the rapid developments made in increasing the capacity of the various manufacturing departments through which the records pass, all orders can now be filled promptly and, in practically all cases, completely. SPECIAL NOTICE It has just been discovered that Blue Amberol Record No. 1918, Lalani Hula's Hawaii, by Toots Paka's Hawaiians, was omitted from the cut-out list issued in the spring of 1915. It has been out of the regular catalog since that time. EDISON GLEE CLUB PRESENTS MUSICAL COMEDY On May 19 the members of the Edison Glee Club presented a musical comedy in the Columbus Theatre in Orange, N. J., before a large and appreciative audience. It was not one of those old and worn-out comedies that everybody has seen and heard, but it was made to order for the one presentation and it was "made by Edisonians," being written, staged and presented by Edison talent. All the latest popular songs were sung and a number of dances, that may become popular in the future, were given. Among the vocal selections was an original number, "On My Edison Phonograph," a song that was one of the hits of the evening. At the close of the entertainment a dancing party was held in the ball room of the theatre and the festivities continued until a late hour, evervbodv present having a highly enjoyable time.
