The Singer and the song

There are songs, and songs. Likewise
there are singers, and singers. The in
different singer seldom sings the indiffer-
ent song, but always chooses the more
pretentious work in the vain hope that
what is lacking in the rendering may be
offset by the greatness ofsthe song. The
indifferent singer and the Indifferent
song would make combination which
the public would scorn and refuse to
patronize.
But with the real singer, the singer
who sings from his heart, through a
sweet voice, into the hearts of bis hear
ers, with such, the case is very different.
He is not forced to rely upon the great
songs for his fame. but he has the won
derful ability to pick one of the beautiful
little flowers of musical production,
which may spring up unseen by the
roadside of life. And he studies that lit
tie song-blossom and loves it. He stores
it away in his heart and then, before
some great metropolitan audience, he
sings it out of his heart and into the
hearts of his hearers.
This is the character of David Bisp
hams singing. To hear him will be a
revelation to you of hitherto hidden and
unknown possibilities in our English
songs.
His appearance at Middlebury June
29, is rare opportunity for Vermonters,
and should not be missed at any cost.
The tickets go on sale at Stems drug
store next Monday, June IA.

One fact that temperance and no. license workers have to face frequent Vy is that of dreaded boycott. by the liquor traffic and it's friends. of any man who publicly makes known his stand against the traffic. ...=
 Even in a small town like Stafford it is amazing how widespread is this fear of what the friends of license may or will do to the business of 8 man who dares oppose them. It is strange that they never think of fear ing the friends of no-license. This is due first to feeling that on the whole, the no oense element is above resorting to a mean and now nearly obsolete practice, such as refusing to trade with man because he differs with you in opinion. Another reason why no-license people are not feared, if offended. is that when they do boy. cott merchant he seldom knows it.
 Yet it is a fact that many man suffers business losses that he little suspects. Here in Stafford, at the last election. 426 men voted for no-li. cense. It is fair assumption that if these 426 men and their families have a choice between two merchants, one of whom they know to favor li- cense, they will choose the one who favors no-license, believing that he, being in sympathy with them, most deserves their support. Every hotel that has bar loses hundreds of dollars. without suspecting it. per haps. because men of strong temper ance principles will not, if they can avoid it, stop there. They so plan their visits to town that they will not have to stay over night. or else arrange to stay, if there be 8 temper ance hotel, at that hotel. There is a vast difference between the real boy. colt, the deliberate and low minded attempt to ruin men who differ from the friends of license, and the proper preference given by the friends of license to those who agree with them. But that men suffer. lose trade, lose favors. because they champion the license cause, no one who observes carefully will think of denying. We do not believe that there is in New England today town or city where man who avows himself openly and emphatioally upon the side of every move for the improvement of morals, decency and order, will receive any thing but profit from 1t. There if no surer way of doubling business than by doubling the respect in which your fellow citizens hold you.

Haines.
