THE NEW EDISON
"The Ponograph With A Soul."
Our store will be the meccn, for
music lover3 of North Platte and
neighboring communities at all
times. Money or efforts will not be
spared to introduce the favorite
invention of the master of inventors,
Thomas A. Edison.
NOT A TALKING MACHINE
The New Ellison is not a "talking
machine." In order clearly to distin
guish the life-like Re-Creations of
the New Edison from the,, lifeless
mechanical reproductions of ordin
ary "talking machines," the music
critics have coined a new expression,
Music's Re-Creation, a now art, the
secrets of which are known only to
Mr. Edison and his most trusted
associates.
We could tell you that more than
one million music lovers and the
music critics of over one thousand
papers have publicly acknowledged
their inability to distinguish be
tween the voices of living artists and
the New Edison's Re-Creation of
them when heard side by side.
Thirty Edison artists (great singers
and instrumentalists) have! partici
pated in tests which have convinced
these music critics that the New
Edison is truly the "Phonograph
with a Soul."

Wo could write entire pages about
Music's Re-Creation in an effort to
convince you that no other sound
reproducing invention can possibly
compare with tho New Edison, but
one sweet note of the voice of Anna
Case singing "Depuis le jour" or one
ripplo of molody from tho bow of
Albert Spalding playing "Tho Med
itation from Thais" would convince
you as no printed words ever could.
A NEW ART MUSIC'S
RE-CREATION
We could tell you that The New
Edison has a GENUINE DIAMOND
stylus reproducer (no needles to
change). We could tell you that Edi
son and Edison Re-Creations are
almost unwearable and unbreakable.
We could tell you many other re
markable things about the New
Edison and Edison Re-Creations
but the New Edison itself can tell
you far better in its music-language
just what we are trying to impress
upon you here that it is an instru
ment by means of which Thomas A.
Edison has given to the world a
new art Music's Re-Creation.
You owe it to your love of music
to visit our store and acquaint your
self with Music's Re-Creation.

McADOO MAKES A TALK
TO NORTH PLATTE PEOPLE
Wm. G. McAdoo, ex-secretary of tho
treasury and ex-dlrector general of
railroads, passed east in a special car
attached to tho first section of train
No. G which reached this terminal at
10:35 yesterday morning. Tho com
ing of Mr. McAdoo and that ho would
make a short address had been pre
viously announced, and tho depot
plaform was packed with tho people.
Introduced hy District Chairman
Moonoy, of tho Liberty Loan organ
ization, Mr. McAdoo spoko for about
ten minutes in tho interest of the
coming loan. He paid special Btrcss
on the fact that 70,000 American boys
had made the supreme sacrifice and
sleep beneath the sod in Franco, while
200,000 more wore maimed by loss of
a leg, an arm, or an eye, whllo still
others had .their health impaired for
life. These were tho real sacrifices
that tho American boys mado; shouTO
wo who staid at homo falter when ask
ed to buy bonds? Wo had shown our
patriotism in past loan drives, wo
should bo equally patriotic in the
coming drive; tho boys over there had
helped lick the Kaiser, and mado the
world safe from other possible wars,
should we not consider it a privilege,
rather than a burden, to buy bonds?
Mr. McAdoo endorsed the plan for a
leaguo of nations, through which pos
sible wars may be averted, and strong
ly advised his hearers not to let poli
tics bias their minds as to tho needs
of such a leaguo.
Mr. McAdoo Is a read talker, wastes
no words In presenting his thoughts
and it is regretted that ho did not
have a longer period In which to
speak.
