The Edison phonograph monthly (Jan-Dec 1916)

12 EDISON PHONOGRAPH MONTHLY, OCTOBER, 1916 Keeping in Touch with Edison Artists From the middle of this month until Christmas Anna Case, the young prima donna of the Metropolitan Opera, will be busy filling the many engagements that she has accepted. Her first appearance of the fall will be in Springfield, Mass., where she will be heard October 6th. On the eleventh of the month she will give a recital in Carnegie Hall, New York, and from then on she will have but little rest until the holidays. Marie Narelle, the well-known soprano, who makes a specialty of singing folk-songs, appeared recently before a convention of the Ancient Order of Hibernians in Boston. Her rendition of "Old Ireland Shall Be Free" aroused so much enthusiasm that a bed of roses that decorated the speaker's table was given to the singer, Mayor Curley, of Boston, making the presentation. Christine Miller will appear as soloist at the music festival to be held next May at Grand Island, ANNOUNCING THE NEW DIAMOND AMBEROLA "STORE" {Continued from page n) ters. The doors and sides are paneled and so arranged that hangers and other advertising forms may be suspended against them. Just the place for your monthly record hangers. The "Store" is as substantially made as it is attractive in appearance and, from every standpoint, is a desirable adjunct for any merchant's store. The advantages of the Amberola "Store" are numerous. It affords a place in which instruments and records can be kept safely, compactly and systematically. This one feature is going to be influential in placing it in hundreds of small stores where there is no suitable space to keep and display the Amberola line to advantage. It affords continuous free advertising and lends an air of distinction to your store. It is not costly and it does not require any great outlay of money to stock it with the equipment it is designed to hold. In every way it is highly desirable for dealers. While the New Amberola "Store" has been designed primarily for new dealers, it can be secured by merchants who are now handling the Amberola line and who feel that the new method is an improvement over their present way of displaying the instruments and records. The "Store" is made to sell at the remarkably reasonable price of fifteen dollars, so it is within the means of every merchant. A limited quantity is now ready for deliverv and dealers who wish to start their winter Nebraska, under the auspices of the St. Cecelia Society. The New York Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Walter Damrosch, will provide instrumental music for the festival. Anita Rio will be one of the singers on a program to be given by the Evanston Musical Club and the School of Music at Evanston, 111., November 16 and 17. Helen Clark recently returned from a two weeks' vacation at Newport, R. I., thoroughly refreshed and ready to add many fine records to her already long list of Blue Amberols. Hardy Williamson gave a recital in August at the Academy of Music in New York, and his program evoked much enthusiasm from a large audience. The Above Shows the Neat, Compact Appearance of the "Store" When Closed work along the most efficient lines and who feel that they now are handicapped by lack of space or facilities for making an attractive display, should take steps to improve their stores and increase their sales and profits by installing the New Amberola "Store."
