Name That Noise

This sound clip contains two brief snippets from a song recorded in 1950. It's an interesting piece of instrumentation, highlighting just how creative musicians could be in their quest for novel sounds, long before synthesizers and digital effects processors took over. Can anyone guess the instrument? Bonus points if you actually recognize what song it's taken from.
