Greensboro News. Seldom, rs ever, has a concert of local talent given such genuine pleasure as that of last evening in the Odell Memorial building, when the Choral Art Club, under the direction of Charles Troxell, present |ed n splendid program- The choruse.., I well balanced anil beautiful’y phras led, were most effective. The selec | tions were admirable, the singers fm j tering wholeheartedly and intelli- I ger.tly into the musical themes, and ! each voice as one rising in crescendo ! or receding, the forte and pianissimo | were like the exquisite shading of a j pastel picture, ho "finely and artistic- I ally dene. The soloists, Mrs. JK. Os. Benbow, j Mrs. A. E. Stanley and Mi's. E- C. ' Caldwell, rendered their selections with true artistry and beauty, and were forced to respond in Cneh ease. A word of praise must be said for the excellent work of the incidental soloists. Dr. T. Edgar Sikrs, Bynum 'Clapp, Robert Wuuseh, and 11. It. Hersh. who fulfilled their duties with good musicianship and ample vocal equipment. ; One noted with delight the poise, ease of breathing, diction, lovely tonal quality and the effective can tante Mint signified painstaking work and artistic and creative inter pretation from the club. This organization has an ad vantage not often secured in the fact that each member is a trained singer and so it id not surprising that choral work was an artistic triumph. The accompaniments fell to the capable hands of Miss Lydia Ihmiel, who followed readily each Singer's mood at the same time i sustaining them with splendid un | derstuiKling. "It is to be hoped, jafter having lizard this concert, that Iwe are on the verge of an era hav- I ing for its ideal the establishment (-of n real southefti musical center at I this point, realizing what has been done by the colleges, music clubs and other organizations helping along | this line," said one lover of music | last night following the concert. » | In Scandiavia girls share equally with boys ill the magnificent system iof state education, and have equal [ aet'e s to all the professions and to ] all posts iu the civil service.

April lfi.—Probably the hanging of Gerald dbttfntuA was no worse than any other execution. Due, however,- ,to Chapman's wide notoriety, news accounts of it were unusually horrible in gruesome de tail. Judging from unofficial con gressional comment, they’ve caused a decided revulsion against capital punishment under any circumstances. Os course congressmen, as such, have no responsibility for state laws, but they do, indivldnaliy, have influ ence in t'iieir respective states. Resides, the Chapman case, in one way, was peculiarly linked up with the federal government. The bandit , enjoyed—or. rather. by no means enjoyed—the distinction o£ being the only man ever pardoned by the presi dent of the United States 1 in order to be hanged. * * * President Coolidge. in signing this pardon, relinquishing the Atlanta pen itentiary’s claims on Chapman and thus allowing the Connecticut author ities to string him up, really sent the outlaw to his death in a more; direct sense than he was sent by the jury which convicted him, the judge , who sentenced him or the board wfilch I refused him mercy at the last. The Connecticut proceedings at least were automatic-—the usual thing, done in the usual way. President Coolidge set a precedent, perhaps in all legal history, in granting a pardon which meant file faoose. When the supreme court turned down Chapman's contention that a pardon can be refused by tbe man it is offered to, some lawyers in Con gress do incline to believe there may be merit in the argument that the so-called Chapman pardon wasn’t ac tually a pardon jrtt all—a pardon be ing a remission of ifonishment, not its infliction.
