GILMER-SORREXTIXO RECITAL
AT RALEIGH LAST WEEK.
Gastonia music-lovers are looking
forward with great interest to the
concert to be given at the court
house on Friday night of next week.
November 5th, by Miss Josephine
Gilmer, soprano, and Signior Umber
to Sorrentino, Italian tenor, under
the auspices of the William Gaston
chapter, Daughters of the American
Revolution. In this connection the
following account of their concerr
given in Raleigh on Wednesday
night, October 20th, will be of inter
est. It is taken from The News and
Observer of October 21st:
"The music lovers of this city and
in fact of the whole State had an op
portunity to welcome one of their
own last night and the reception ac
corded to Miss Josephine Gilmer up
on her appearance at the auditorium
gave a tribute of their appreciation
that she will long cherish. But It
was an ovation due to her artistic
attainments first. This young lady
has a voice that will win for her an
enviable place among the American
prima donnas of her day, and she
knows how to handle that voiee. It
is a pleasant experience for an audi
ence to listen to an artist who is
giving them legitimate effort and
not straining for effects. Miss Gil
mer's Italian training is much in ev
idence in her work and surely every
note was sung with true appreciation
of what is beautiful and real in tne
art of singing. Her rendition or
the Jewel Song was a delight her
technique left nothing to be desired,
and the beautiful liquid quality or
her upper register was like a tin
flute tone. Not only the State of
North Carolina but the whole musi
cal public may be proud of this ac
complished young lady. It is to sucn
earnest and serious talents as these
that our concert rooms should be
open. Her personal charm was char
acteristic of the real South.
'Umberto Sorrentino is the very
epitome of the virile and dramatic
lyric artist. He has the surety of
ample experience both in concert and
opera. It is rarely that an artist can
do justice to both. But Sorrentino
is an actor as well as a singer of most
excellent qualities. He must prove
an ardent Romeo as well as an in
tense Caruso and his program last
night showed his mastery of a suave
quality of voice that was delightful.
His stage presence is electric and full
of dash and go. The audience was
lavish In their appreciation of his
varied program. It would be diffi
cult to pick out which number pleas
ed most, for he had won his audience
from the beginning.

Booklet, "The Story of Gaston Coun
ty", Being Distributed at South j
Carolina State Fair by Prohibition
orces.
Secretary Alfred O. Lloyd of the
Gastonia Chamber of Cemmerce yes
terday received the following letter
which is self-explanatory:
Columbia, S. C, Oct. 23, 1915.
Chamber of Commerce,
Gastonia, N. C.
Dear Sirs:
The Ladies' Prohibition League de
sires to distribute some literature
during the State Fair week, whicn
comes next week, from a booth they
will have there.
I have thought that if you could
send a number of your booklets "The
Story of Gaston County , which you
kindly furnished me for use in the
Prohibition campaign, they could
serve their own cause, and at the
same time, do some very good adver
tising for your city and County, and
I shall be very glad to have them
do so.
If you can furnish any of these
booklets, send them to me, and I will
turn them over to this League.
Very truly,
D. W. ROBINSON".
It will be recalled that this pampn
let was especially prepared for dis
tribution at the annual meeting or
the National Anti-Saloon League in
Atlantic City last August and there
drew quite a good deal of attention
because of the marvellous transforms
tion it recorded of a county from the
banner whiskey county " of North
Carolina to the banner cotton manu
facturing county in the State and a
mong the leading counties in this in
dustry in the South. During the re
cent prohibition campaign in South
Carolina a large number of these
pamphlets was distributed and this
week many more will be put Into the
hands of South Carolinians, Mr. Lloyd
having complied with the above re
quest.

A GIANT CHRYSANTHEMUM.
Special Train Will Carry It to Cleve

New York World, 22nd.
Carried by a special train, tne
largest single chrysanthemum plant
ever transported by rail in this or
any other country will start on No
vember 5 from Ardsley, N." Y., for
Cleveland.
It will be exhibited there at the
flower show to be held in conjunc
tion with the annual exhibition of
the Chrysanthemum SociPty of America.
This plant, Vhich is now on the
estate of Adolph Lewisohn at Ards
ley, is second in size only to one in
the possession of the Emperor of
Japan, the home of chrysanthemums.
It Is 17 feet in diameter, only six
inches less than the Mikado's largest
plant.
Several years ago Mr. Lewishon
conceived the idea of producing a
chrysanthemum plant which would
rival the largest in the world. He
consulted J. W. H. Campbell, fore
man of the Ardsley green houses
and John Canning, superintendent or
the estate.
As a result there are today two

marvellous plants in the green
houses, one the yellow chrysanthe
mum, which will be sent to Cleve
land, the other, a variety called
Wells s Late Pink." which is six
feet high and fourteen feet nine inch
es across.
Mr. Lewisohn's exhibits at the
New York flower shows have been
famous for years, but the great size
of the chrysanthemum plants has
prevented their being shown in dis
tant cities. This year Mr. M. Vin
son, Secretary of the Cleveland
Flower Show, decided that he would
have one of the big chrysantbe-
mums. He obtained from the New
York Central Railroad what is call
ed a "pit car," and after planning
with railroad men it was decided that
if Mr. Lewisohn would consent to
reduce the sire of the plant by 12
inces the railroad would undertake
its transportation. '
To make the trip possible the
chrysanthemum will be placed on its
side on a specially constructed
frame. This will be revolved by a
mechanical device which will prevent
the lower leaves from being crushed
during transit. The whole plant will
be covered with glass. J. W. H.
Campbell of Ardsley and an assist
ant will accompany the chrysanthe
mum on its journey.
On arrival in Cleveland the great
plant will be placed on a motor truck
and will be driven through the prin
cipal streets of the city, escorted by
mounted police.
The tour of the giant chrysanthe
mum will be expensive, the charges
of the railroad being $853 each way.
Owing to the height of the glass
covering the trip will not be made by
the direct route, so as to avoid sev
eral low bridges, the special train
will go from Dobbs Ferry to Depew
via the main line, thence by the Gar
denville Branch to Ben View and
then toCleveland over the Now York
Central.
