For many years it has been the Gus.
tom in porcelain factory in Trenton
y. j., for the girl employees to sing at
their work. It is said that the estab.
lishment has become noted not only
as producer Of art in crockery and
bric-a-brac, but also as sort of must
cal conservatory from which many
graduates have gone out with highly
cultivated voices and large repertor-
les of song gems of the day.
1t is painful to learn from special
dispatch to the New York Times, that
the department of vocal culture in tho
porcelain works has been closed. that
the girls have been forbidden to- sing,
and that consequently they have gone
out on a strike. 1t came about this
way:
The manager unmindful of the out
pour Of melody to which his ears had
long been accustomed, was recently
talking by telephone to a customer in
New York. 1t was something about an
untitled order, and the customer asked:
why don't you send on the de luxe set
that we ordered last week?" To his
amazement, there came to his ear In
clear, ringing tones the answer: "My
wife won't let me-" Thinking that a
wrong connection had been made, and
not wishing to butt into an affair which
was none of his business, the customer
abruptly hung up the receiver. After
suitable interval he rang up the por-
celain works again, and asked: "Is it
possible that you are discriminating
against us in favor of somebody else In
this matter Of early chipments?" "A
sweet soprano voice replied: have a
coy corner in my heart for you" The
next question ELECTED this astonishing
answer: when the harvest days are
over, Jessie dear"
The customer gave up in despair
and Indignation Subsequently he
called on the manager and protested
against being "joshed" when he was
trying to talk business The manager
was mystified but applied himself to
finding out just wha. the trouble was,
