The full results were:
The tower housing the 12 fam- Jons bella is also in need of repair. and much work is required by way of redecoration of the interior of.. the church; the organ, too, re- quires some attention. Tho or iginal appeal was for £9,000 tio cover the cost of redecorations and work on the tower and steeple, but the appeal has now been ex- tended to include £4,000 to £5,000 for putting the bells in good order, and about £2,000 for organ re- pairs, a total of £10,000.
Rebuilt by Wren.
The tower, 236-11. high, at the top of which is a dragon 9-ft. long, was erected by Sir Christopher Wren when he rebuilt the church after the Great Fire of 1666. Of

There is no other gramophone like the Decca, When it is open, you can recognise it at a glance. But wlien it is closed you carry it with- out others being aware it is a gramophone. Playing, there is distinctiveness again. The Decca tone is full, free and entirely natural. Large and expensive Cabinet gramophones may have such a tone, but no portable" other than the Decca.
