ONCE UPON JUNE 9th The favorite marriage service song of American brides has its golden anniversary this year. A wedding would hardly be official without a 1 .soprano thrilling “O Promise Me.”* j One day in 1888, in Vienna, Reginald | DeKoven sat down and wrote out the J song’s music in 20 minutes. That i wasn't such an exceptional feat, be- j cause he didn’t compose much of the ' melody. He sandwiched a theme of his own between portions of Wagner and Mendelssohn wedding marches. A few days later, using words auth ored by Clement Scott, a London drama critic, DeKoven sang its first public performance, by singing it himself at a reception given by Baron d’Anethan. It did not reach the general public until two years later, when DeKoven's 1 “Robin Hood” had its first perform ance in Chicago. The premiere was received indifferently, and the con tralto, Jessie Bartlett Davis, complain ed that one of the songs given her role was so badly suited to her voice, she would leave the show unless a better 1 one was provided. DeKoven rememb- | ered the song he had written in j Vienna—“O Promise Me”. Miss Davis | likjed it, and it was interpolated in “Robin Hood” in its second perform- I ance. The reception the song got j made the operetta a hit. Today “Robin Hood” as a whole or any other song in it. is rarely hekrd. “Home, Sweet Home” was similarly written for a now forgotten opera, “Clari or The Maid of Milan,” John Howard Payne, who wrote the words J of “Home. Sweet Home” (the music was by Sir Henry Bishop, English man) was horn 147 years ago today. AMERICA AT WAR DAY-BY-DAY 20 Years Ago Today—As bombard- ! ment of Paris by the 70-mile “Big j Bertha” resumed, the German offen- | sive entered its fourth phase, with a major attack in the Montdidier-Noy an area. Fifteen divisions on a 25- mile front advanced with initial suc cess toward Compeigne, between the 1 -alients created by the first and third phases. The American First Divi*- ?ion, holding the Cantigny sector, was What Do You 1 Know About North Carolina? %i * * ’ y *■ * v ’» * By f kED H. MAY 1. What sectional issue, which is discussed today, was raised in 1840? 2. When was a market for front teeth offered in the State? 3. When was the installation of an elevator in the.

How many manufacturing plants in North Carolina employ more than 1,000 persons? . ANSWERS. 1. In that year Willie P. Mangum and William A. Graham were elected j as North Carolina’s two senators to j the United States Senate. Both were j from Orange county. Since Orange at i that time was considered a western ! county the eastern politicians raised j a great Kisturbance over the fact that I both senators were from the west. 2. The following advertisement was I published in the North Carolina I Gazette, Hillsborough, February 16, j f, 1786: “Any person that will dispose I | of their Front Teeth (slaves excepted | | may receive Two Guineas for each by | calling on Dr. Laymeur.’’ I 3. In 1921. an appropriation of $5,000 j was provided, and the Council of State ' j was authorized to have an elevator i 1 Installed. I j 4. North Carolina appointed the fol lowing: Thomas Ruffin. Sr., D. M | Barringer, David S. Reid, George | Davis and John M. Morehead. The l conference was held in Washington | but failed of its purpose. ) 5. By special act in 19R1. Mrs. Jarvis was the wife of Governor Thomas J. Jarvis who served six consecutive years beginning February 1879, as gov ernor. The first two years were part of the unexpired term of Governor Vance. Governor Jarvis died in 1915. 1 ' The pension was $l5O per month. 6. According to recent census re ports North Carolina has 24 plants employing more than 1,900 persons. These plants together employ more than 43,461. ” British Freighter and French Vessel Bombed Off Spain (Con timer: *rom rage Ore.) gent Spanish air attacks on her ship ping. The bombing of the French freigh | ter Brisbane at Demia and an attack which disabled the British vessel Isadora, heightened official British concern over mounting casualties. The government was expected to ;ict both alone and with other nations to bring pressure on General Franco, the insurgent chief. Definite plans awaited reports from British diplo mats at Barcelona and Burgos, the Spanish capital. Britain was reported studying a proposal for an international air pa trol similar to the haval patrol al ready operating, and to be consider ing putting the question of the in surgent attack squarely up to Pre i mier Mussolini of Italy.

The battle for Compeigne wore it self out, at heavy losses to both sides, leaving Von Hautier’s troops 35 miles as the Crow flies from the out skirts of Paris, and as close as he would ever get. Ludendorff had driv en a salient into the French front, had got a somewhat precarious foot ing on the north bank of the Marne, and was still threatening Paris down the Oise and Marne; but his way along the Oise was blocked north of Compeigne now, and along the Marne it was blocked west of Chateau Thierry by the Americans. On the central road between the two rivers he was held up in the Villers-Cotterest forest. American steamer Pinar del Rio was sunk off the Maryland coast.

S. Senator, but lost out in the state race with Robert R. Reynolds, incumbent, but his victory in this county meant the loss of practically all of Millard Renn’s hair. Milliard wagered barbers at Henry Daniel's barber shep at North Henderson that Bob Rey nolds would carry Vance county in the primary, the bet being a hair cut any style. He lost, and now he is walking about looking as if a whole tribe of Sioux Indians had taken a whack at his scalp. Only a small patch of hair is left at the base of the head, the remainder of his head resembling a billiard ball.
