The Edison tone test directed by F. M. Munson at WaKeeney Drug Store drew big crowds last Thursday. Miss Jean contralto and Mr. Emerson Williams bass baritone, with Audrey Creighton on violin, demonstrated flawless vocal and instrumental reproduction by the Edison phonograph. The test showed perfect tonal accuracy, even when the singer momentarily vanished and the machine finished the song.
