Girls, Does this Apply to You?

The following is taken from an ex-
change. Under the heading of Gig
Cling in Church." it says:
Giggling is described in the dictionary
as the act of Laughing idly, tittering.
grinning'' 1t is silly and childish enough
anywhere, but in church it is abominable,
and yet there is no place where giggling
is more common. 1t is natural in school
girls, but when met with in young women
of nineteen and twenty it is objectionable.
1t is frequently characteristic of young
men with incipient mustaches who think
they qualify themselves for manhood by
effecting contempt for what their elders
revere. They giggle. If they catch
the eye of an acquaintance they giggle; il
an old woman rises too soon for a hymn
| they giggle; if baby cries they giggle; i
the clergyman coughs they giggle; if the
plate is handed to some one who puts
nothing in they giggle; if the choir makes
mistake they giggle. In fact nothing Il
too insignificant to arrest their notic
and produce giggle, not even the fac
that they have just enough sense to gig
gle because they did giggle, and cal
giggle.

WHY Is THIS THUS Manufacturing en-
terprises get more benefit from newspa-
pers than any other business, almost,
and they patronize them less. This ought
not so to Wilson Advance.
Of course ''this ought not to be so,'
but it is nevertheless. Of all the man
ufacturing enterprises in Henderson,
not one has an advertisement in the
GOLD LEAF, although they have re-
ceived greater publicity and derived
more notoriety from it than anything
else. But some people imagine it does
no good to advertise in their home
paper an article that must find custom
ers abroad. This is a mistake, because
the paper has more than local clrcu'
lation, and there is no reason why Its
columns should not be as productive OF
good as those at distance. And ther
again it would be but showing just rec
ognition and appreciation OF the effor''
of the paper to build up and fostel
manufacturing enterprises in our midst

Cor ou'S Minstrel ).

The performance of Gorton's cele-
brated New Orleans Minstrels at Bur-
we'll Hall Saturday night was the rich
est thing of the season. They had
fair-sized audience considering it was
Saturday night, when so many OF our
people cannot get off from their busl-
ness. and the performance was fully up
to the standard. It was full of fun. and
chaste and refined throughout. Hank
Goodman was as good as ever, though
suffering from hoarseness somewhat,
while Henry J. Yorkey, Jake Welby,
Frank Sommers. e. G. Pearl and the
! Elliott Brothers-Eugene and john
are artists in their respective lines. AS
each would appear one after another 1t
was difficult to decide which most to
admire. Goodman was tavorlte OF
course, but Yorkey and Welby easily
shared the honors with him. The sing
inc and dancing of the Elliotts was
much enjoyed. Frank Sommers in his
original specialties, playing banjo
and singing and dancing at the same
: time, dancing Jig while SHINING two
: tambourines. and his wonderful bone

Rurwell Hall,

The performances ofthe Carrie Stan
lev Dramatic Company at Burwell
Hall Thursday and Friday nights were
witnessed by small audiences. The
first night the Count of Monte Crlsto
was rendered, Miss Stanley essaying
the title role. She did well considering
the strong (male) character she under
took, but the support was not equal to
her. Friday night the play was some
what more animated. AS Flossie, the
Mad Cap, Miss Stanley was apparently
more in her natural element. and the
acting of the support was also better.

The State Chronicle .

We couldn't pay Editor Daniels and
the State Chronicle higher praise than
by copying what the Sanford Express
says, all of which we endorse:
The State Chronicle has been edited by
Mr.. Josephus Daniels just four years this
week. There is no young man in all the
State that has welded so powerful an IN
fluence as Editor Daniels during that
time. That influence has always been
wholesome, and the success OF the State
Chronicle shows that the people OF this
State are devotedly attached to honest,
conscientious journalism. The course OF
the paper has been thoroughly aggressive
and it has been a terror to evil doers
The Chronicle by it's masterful and nervy
course has retired more than one rasca
from high places OF public trust to pr
| vate life, and for this it deserves the sub
| scription and unbounded thanks OF every
| patriotic North Carolinian. We sincerely
wish it was in every reading household II

A Fine Performance.

One of the best performances ever /
witnessed in Burwen Hall was that Of |
the Excelsior Dramatic Company last |

May Blossom. the great Madison

to the fitness and ability of the actor
portraying it. and there is not poor
one in the whole troupe.
