ANNA CASK HAS OVF.B 500

The Distinguished Soprano at the Ral

f It Is estimated that Anna Case tile
distinguished Ajnorlcnn soprano, who
will give one of her Justly famous re
citals here at the Auditorium Febru
ary 12, haB in her repertoire over 500
songs, exclusive of operatic arias,
which would give an Idea of the enor
mous work required of a musician of
her standing. Miss Case has always
been noted for her varied programs
and is Indefatigable In searching out
new material.
One of her principal reasons for go
ing to Europe during the past summer
aside from her successful debut reci
tal at Queen's Hall, London, was to se
cure personally new manuscript ma
terial for use on the programs of her
extensive tours this season. Miss
Case sings in English, French, Italian
German ah d Scandinavian, being not
ed for the clarity of her diction In all
these tongues. In arrtBpng a pro

to bring out what might be called the
harmonious contrast with light and

In speaking of programs Miss Case
said in a recent-interviewt The hard

i good songs and enough of them tc
I make a program or interest and
' riety with at once an appeal to the pub
lie and a'hlgh musical standard. Songs
must not only suit one's voice, but
cne^S temperament, for unless I can
feel my salt, into, the atmosphere of a
song, I simply cannot sing It. Plaln
*ongs, dramntio onen???4 ones
w1th a *icrte of melancholy are not rare
It is t tre bright gongs which throw thoBB
others in contrast that are not bo eas
ily to be found. And then you have
to avoid as much as possible, what
other singers use. The further prob
lem of appearing before the same pub
lic tor a second, third and fourth-time
complicates matters still more. By
the hardest sort of work I have dlscov
ered a number of new songs In Europe
this summer, which I hope my public
will like.

Hinily nf Seeing the North Carolina
Historical Pageant Picture. This pic
ture, giving a vivid and detailed ac
count of our early settlers was made
under the direction oi the State Di-1
,vision of School Extension. The tca
chers are requested to review\his parT
of our North Carolina History with
their classes, do ihis in 6rdlU' lllUl Ihg
f.u is uuiy DtTTresh in the minds of the
children when they see the picture. |
This is the psychological time to teach
early North Carolina History; the pic- ]
ture will give not only a visual ac- I
count ot the history but will provide a
Cue motive for the study un the-part
Of the children. The State Depart
ment has gone to much trouble and
I expense to set_this picture ready for
the screen and we should feel fortu
nate la.franklin County that we will
have the privilege of seeing and en
joying it.
2. The General Assembly of North
Carolina enacted a law whereby a day
|was to be set aside in each school year
to be known as A Temperance and
Law or Order Day, in wmcn the child
ren are to be given instruction in the
truth concerning alcoholic drinks and
to be trained to resjJect the laws of
our land. The State Department of
Education has set apart Fenruary the
10th for this day and has arranged a
special program for that day. I mail
ed to each school a copy of this pro- 1
grant Monday, January 30th. The
program Is Intended to be helpful to
the teacher in selecting ma?eria*l from
which to prepare a program for this
day. Teachers should select that
which is bost suited to the ago and
advancement of the pupils. The old
fdea was that children were not citi
zens that only adults were citizens.
Today we recognize that even young
children are citizens, just as much as
atftTlfs and what is wanted is not
training for citizenship but in citizen
ship.
3. Dr. W. F. Savage who is con
ducting a Dental Clinic In the county
was at the Louisburg Graded School
last Wednesday and Thursday. Tho
teeth of over a hundred children were
treated. Many of our physical and
therefore mental defects among child
ren are directly the resulst of bad
teeth. I hope the children ? nthe cmin
ty will take advantage of this oppor
tunity to have some of these defects
remedied. The following facts con
cerning this work should be remem
bered :
a. There 1? no expense attach
ed to this work, this is taken car?
of entirely by the state.
b. All children between the
ages of 6 and 12 inclusive are elig
ible for treatment.
c. It is not charity work but
-^jor-gtt-the children of all tho poo
pie.
4. The following comes from Miss
Nannie Pigg of the Frankllnton {graded
School. "Whenever a teacher enters
a community it would be a fine thing
if ahe-cotrfd hare that little poem, be
fore her which begins '"I shall pass
thia_wav but once." Possibly it would
maKe her realize what. :i vast opprrrtu
nity just for this once is beckoning to
her. Just the form of the extra cur
ricula she will do will be determined
by her desire to help. I say desire
guardedly, because if a person wants
^en-help badlTr enough along any-par
ticular line she can get it done.. Ev
hnr shnnlil dfrfidp rtgflnitHv on
Tome line of activity for ber comma
nity. It may be to secure some kind
of community organization through
which any phase of community life
might be improved. It may be to
teach a Sunday school class. It may
,hfi tO-Anmafi a desire on the part of
I the people for more efficient school.
\Jl very fine thing is for the saperlnten
|dent and his teachers to decide togeth
er what the school needs and make
plans for securing these. At the end
of the school year let them check up
and see what has been accomplished.
Miss Annie Cherry* supervisor for Hal
ifax County, carried this idea out very
successfully. At the end of the school
year she had community center group
meetings at Four Group Centers, j
Then the teachers from each school
read the list of extra curricula. The 1
school that was judged to have the
best report was awarded a handsome (
prize. Besides getting a great deal of i
equipment in the way of pianos, ath
letic kits, libraries, a great many ad
vantages such as public lectures, com |
munity plays and etc. were secured. 1
The life of any teacher m almost any j
particular community 13 unusually |
short. But she can erect to herself i
a permanent monument If she will ]
throw her whole soul into whatever1
her hands find to do. .As one of our
great men has said. "The greatest)
blessing of life is to spend and be |
spent."

CONSUMPTION OR TUBERCULOSIS ?
In the last four issues of The Times
we have been telling people about Uie
above disease. What It is, how to
catch it, how to*C-w? it and what tto?
ravages are. Now in this issue we
want to tell them how to keep from,
catchjng it. In the first place, the
most frequent way to catch it is by in
haling the breath or small visable and
invisable particles of spiay fruisi the
voice, breathing ami coughing of one
who knows he has the disease or from
nne~wlm BS it u.mt iloumrt C555 tliat?
he has it, the latter as often as the
first?for many people have the dis
ease and do not know it and these are
The cases that are most dangerous, be
cause for not knowing that they ha?e
it they are not -artrui themselves in
trying rot to IT ana peApie vho
c6me in contact with them not being
suspicious, they are not careful. Tke
spray from a Tubercular throat is just
as distructive to life as the contents
of a machine gun. If one does not
catch' (Tie disease when they come m
contact with (direct) the one
who has it. This spray thrown oat
from a Tubercular throat will dry and
after being ground into dust every
wind or breeze will scatter it broad
cast to be inhaled by all who come near
it. A good rule to observe is not to
hold your face too close to any ones
mouth while talking or in conversa
tion. Don't sleep with people oC
whom you are the least suspicious.
Don't eat after them or drink after
tliem, just here is where the individ
ual eating, drinking and sleeping ar
rangements come In with their good
results. Here are other good rules to
observe. Avoid breathing dusty air.
Avoid careless coughers and spitters.
Avoid close foul air at all times. Avoid
Flies. Above all avoid getting "run
down." Sleep well, healthy and stout.
When we are tired, overworked and
run down, is the easiest time to take
or catch diseases of any kind of the
breathing System. Eat simple nour
ishing food, chew it well and eat slow
ly. Regulate your exercise and diet,
so that your bowels will move freely
once a day and drink plenty of pure
water. About eating moro people are
killed by overeating than by drinking
whiskey or by war. There is no good
reason why man should not live to be
a hundred years old. The simple
thing of eating too much, too fast and
not chewing your food, is the cause of
the short lives of people, thereisn't a
particle of doubt about th?s.
