AUTO DISPENSES MUSIC FROM AUTOMATIC PLAYER
Fitted into a specially designed automobile, a self-playing musical instrument with a tone somewhat like an air calliope, has attracted attention in the west. Played with a keyboard, by hand or with an ordinary piano-player roll, it furnished music that could be heard nearly a mile. The device occupies floor space of only twenty-four by thirty-one inches in the auto-mobile, which has sleeping quarters built in it.
