126,000 Miles of Cloth for Cement Sacks To keep cement moving from the mills to the many building jobs always under H way, cement manufacturers require an R astonishing quanyty of sacks. This year the industry has consider- B ably more than 225,000,000 sacks. These represent enough cotton cloth to make e skirt for every woman and girl in the United States — 126,000 miles of 30-infch fabric. Even a moderate sized mill which ships say 1.000,000 barrels a year must have 2,000,000 or so sacks. When a customer returns a sack he gets credit for it, if it is usable or repairable. The convenient returnable sack means that each plant has to have large departments where men and women sew, sort, clean and count sacks continuously. This work alone costs the Jdustry I nearly $1,250,000 a year. And cement manufacturers keep increasing their sack inventories so that they can ship promptly. Last year they purchased a total of more than 100,000,000 new cotton sacks. For replacements alone over 50,000,000 were needed; lor ' increased supplies over 30,000,000. In addition over 18,000,000 paper bags were used representing 7,000,000 pounds of paper. This problem of containers causes a large and steadily growing investment by the portland cement industry.

[ . ' " ~ "1 1 Thomas A. Edison Triumphs Again! 1 j|fjl V Big Audience at Strand Theatre Hears Elizabeth Spencer in EDISON Tone-Test

In a test of direct comparison, made last Thursday at Strand Theatre, before a large audience. Thomas A, Edison's new phonograph scored a complete and convincing triumph. Elizabeth Spencer, the famous soprano, sang in • direct comparison with the Edison Records of her voice on the New Edison. To every ear there was no difference between her living voitfe and her Re-Created voice. This is the most drastic phonograph test known. No other phonograph has ever sustained it. No other phonograph has even attempted it. The New Edison's marvelous performance of Thursday vindicates everything that has been said or claimed for its perfect realism. Elizabeth Spencer stood on the stage next to a shapely Chippendale cabinet. She began to sing. Her golden voice soared over the auditorium, bringing all under its magic spell. Halfway through her song, she suddenly stopped singing. The New Edison, at her side, took

up her song — and continued it alone. Singe i and phonograph thus alternated, throughout the song. The only way the audience could be sure which was singing, was by watching Elizabeth Spencer's ghps— *so exactly like the living voice was the Re-Created voice. Lucile Collette made the same test of comparison with Edison Records of her piano selections. Flute and Saxophone comparisons were made by Harold Lyman. Always the same result— there was no difference between the Re-Created performance and the living performance. Proof was piled upon proof! Evidence was massed on evidence! The end of the concert found the audience absolutely and completely convinced, through its own personal experience, that there is no difference between an artist's living performance and its Re-Creation by the New Edison— that listening to the New. Edison is, in literal truth, the same as listening to the living artists.
