' - With regard to Mr.' Lambert Mur phy it may bfi . said, , that- there has never been a tenor voice n Tarboro that compared; with his. He isthe "master of every inflection and con trols with a finesse-; that is clearly perceptable. , His head notes Vejee distinctly sweet And clear while tne power,, effectiveness and volume of his basso rang out clearly and withr out the sliehtest- harshness. 'His greatest effect is noted in the lighter shades where tender pathos is so ap parent. Mr. Murphy sang a number of ser lections, the aria of which " were well known to his audience and conse quently more greatly enjoyed than the technical renderings.- Probably ,the one selection of the' evening that brought more applause- than others was a selection from Wtfrd Stephens, "Christ In Flanders," sung effective ly as a chant and which elicited from his hearers an enthusiastic applause. Taken all 4 in all the concert was the season's big social feature and Hpsnito "the downoour of ram few seats were vacant in tne house, tnus the. pld tradition that Tarboro does not love music has been sorely shat tered for the personal . response ' as well a2T the financial"" receipts were greater than "any bther.: attraction this season. ' -V ' Much of the support wssf probably due to Miss Howell's popularity in her home town. Mr. Lan'ibeft Mur. phy, though he would draw a" fuU house now, was practically personal ly unknown to local people except that he has been on the Victor record for some, time, 'so that some of the credit must lie in the fact that we are, after all, music lovers apd have not known it.

A nation wide t campaign to "measure service of teacBers, school, equipment and courses of instruction," so that every municipality may know how to deal with its public, school problem, has been started, it was announced here today, by a National Committee com posed of secretaries of Chambers of Commerce and superintendents of schools" representing 64 American cities. On the ground 3 that' the public schools of the United ' States ',: are facing a grave crisis due to the al. leged need of $2,500,000,000 to pro vide adequate, buildings, and $200, 000,000 for raising salaries to stop .the increasing shortage pf teachers, the National Committee says that it is enlisting the aid of Chamber's o$ Commerce all Over .the country for the purpose vof acquainting' every citi zen and tax payer with the facts. - the' conference decided that the Chambers of Commerce could render effective aid ' only upon the basis of a "careful survey of , local school con ditions for the .purpose of comparing them with other cities, the idea being thereafter to enlist all community forces for the development of the public school system... ) The. first questionnaire sent to Chambers of Commerce and superin tendents of schools of all cities with a population Of 8,000 and more, and which will be followed by four other questionnaires . making the following inquiries: "How much training do your teachers have? How well do you pay your school employes? What special inducement do you offer the teachers' in your school?" Later questionnaires will ask, among other things: "How well do you hpuse your school children?, What is your edu cational program?

Mr. Editor: The meeting recent ly held in behalf of better roads, while few in number, was enough to start, the most 'worthy effort to have better roads. . Much credit is due to Secretary Shackell for furthering the purpose. Tho matter must be kept before tho people. . ,The saying, "Jor dan is a hard road to travel," is of ancient origin and persistent life, and it makes one think of the good .roads in Edgecombe county; if the Jor donites had to, travel roads like ours, they have my sympathy. The roads that - have been constructed - have given good service ; and" much com fort, but being neglected in their maintenance, have now largely writ over them, bad order. I desire to submit two methods of improving and obtaining good roads : . First, so far as means can be provided, divide parts of the roads into sections,' let these sections be shorter or longer, according to the traffic that passes over them, let the working force and equipment consist of one man, of fair capacity and judgment," team and cart, shovel, hoe and tamper and one horse scrsper. Require that the section be looked over every day, if the section is too long for this to be done, then shorten it, if there be time wasted then lengthen it. Should tho road go,, bad by the continued stress of wot .-weather, the section man should , have assistance. - The principle of the section man's main. tenanee, is founded on that tinfc honored and .'age proven maxim,'.' a stitch in. time saves nine." swhen this system has been thoroughly and practically tested;" then the results Considered, and If found ;not to be 1 uccwoKvt Alio. Musiaciory. uoupjess- ly 4 the knewledge -and experience obtained, "will lead to,' some better way. I am altogether sure that it will not make the roads worse. ' Secondly, appropriate enough of At. - . a i . . . . mile of standard hard surface road; i . uiu nil nvv ue uuuc, wien sen enough of the road bonds on hand to supply the needed fund. The first and principal use of this mile, is to serve as a working ' object lesson. Nothing is so promptly and effective-, ly informing and educating as a: physical working: illustration. ' . Seeing and feeling inevitably lead to conviction, v What did the Lord , say and show to - His -disciple Thomas T ; Thomas . wasv absolutely convinced. There can be no doubt but this mile of standard road when rightly and fully appreciated, - will lead to tho construction of standard roads for the county. Tall paka from little acorns grow. If any one has a better way, he is guilty , of a wrong to his people and county in keeping it concealed. ' y , John L. Bridgers.
