By Terry Hathaway

Below is an e-mail message I received recently that will probably
interest many MMD readers.  Enjoy!

Hi,  I live in Columbus, Indiana where Zaharako's Confectionery is
located, and I thought you might be interested in a section of my
web site that features the 100-year old ice cream parlor. It features
a 1908 Welte orchestrion.  A photo of the organ and a short description
are there, too.

Keep in mind that the page is written for kids, but I think there's
enough there that adults will find it interesting, too.  Please pass
the information along to others who might be interested in this
fantastic ice cream parlor and the Welte orchestrion.  Here's the
URL address: http://kid-at-art.com/htdoc/zaharako.html

Thanks,
