The Oxford Orphanage Singing Class will give a conarl here on Thursday, May 8. The Raleigh News and Ob server, the last time the class appeared in the Capital City, said: "The little folks of the Masonic Or phanage delighted about 800 people last night at the Auditorium with a program made up of songs, recitations and pantomime. Particularly notice able in the performance of the young people was the harmony ol the youth ful voices, in trio, quartette and chorus 'singing, also the articulation was so good that the audience knew what the Bongs and recitations were all about, enjoying equally the humor and pathos in the selections. "It is to be hoped on the next visit of the little children that all Raleigh will be at the Auditorium to applaud and aid them." CIRCUMSTANCE. Two children in two neighbor villages Playing mad pranks along the healthy leas, Two strangers meeting at a festival; Two lovers whispering by an orchard wall; Two lives bound in one with golden ease; , Two graves grass-green beside a gray church-tower, Wash'd with still rains and daisy- fa ossotned; Two children in one hamlet born and bred; So runs the round of lire from hour to hour. Tennyson.

"Everyone is in Slumberland but you and me" is one of the very catchy airs that will be sung in the coming production of this most wonderful extravaganza. This is a beautiful yaltz melody that was composed especially to be featured in the Slumberland show ar.d when one hears this song, they are carried away 'to the realms of slumberland where castles in the air are built of beauiliiul dreams which are toppled over upon one's awakening. The music in Slumberland is conceded to be the most tunelul that has ever been heard in these parts, every meni her of the thirty airs fhat will be heard Icing gems from the best composers. The larger cities where this wonder ful play has been given have proclaimed their praises from the house-tops recommending all to avail themselves of the opportunity of witnessing one of the two performances. The evening Post of Charleston, S. C, a few years ago, printed the following in its write up of Slumberland. "From the overture to the grand finale, pleasing features followed one another in generous succession. "Mirth and melody prcvaded the two acts. The funny roles were arch enemies of sorrow and dear friends of gladness. The vocal parts had much ear-charming music. Pretty girls in the various groups formed a series of magnificent kaleidoscopic pictures which were rarely beautiful". S. Coplon & Son extend a cordial invitation to every lady in New Bern to visit their store this week and on Monday and Tuesday of next week and inspect the stock of goods which the Oriental Importing Company of New York, is displaying there. A lady and gentleman, representatives of this company, will be on hand to show the visitors thc stock which consists of the finest laces, embroideries,, etc. NOTICE.

This pretty frock was sketched front a costume worn by a prominent social favorite at a recent reception.

'Be it resolved that the Woman's Club of New Bern desires to place itself on rccorl as being in favor of the Bond Esuc, w hich is to be voted on, May 6th, 1913." T. I. We.frca, chairman of the County Hoard of Education and trustee 'of the City School, says: "The approaching election on the ! question of issuing bonds' to provide I far letter school facilities for thc city i of New Bern marks an important crisis in the educational life and development of this city. Bonds have been issued by thc city to provide for the material advancement of her citizens in the way of providing" for substantial sidewalks and streets and for other purposes and no progressive citizen regrets this for ward movement. How much more im portant must thc duty be to provide for the ie growing ind imperative needs for Letter educational facilities for t! boys and girls of this community. "The work of the schools in New Bern is badly crippled and handicapped by the lack of sufficient school facilities, especially the lack of school buildings; for no teacher can do justice to himself and the pupil.;-under him in an over crowded room. "At presc.it there are only twenty rooms available for teaching purposes. In about half of these you will find over forty pupils and in one room there are over 70 pupils. For lack of room some of the classes have to wait until jare ctitit l"d? For myself I am willing to pay this adrlitionr.l tax for the benefit of the children.
