SYLVIA.

That dramatic and vocai talent
is IN this community in abund
ance was thoroughly demonstrat-
ed last Wednesday night at the
hlks Theatre when the beautiful
little operetta Of "Sylvia' was
produced by the boys anil girls
of our High School for two hours
an audience that completely filled
the house gave the closest atten.
ton to the rendition of the play
plnctuated by bursts of applause,
and repeated encores. The act
ing would have done credit to
professionals while the singing
disclosed the fact that Iberia has
vocal talent that will yet make
its mark in the years to come.
That 20 boys could be brought
out of the stage delivering Ro
licking choruses, perfect in harm
ony and action was a matter of
surprise, especially when their
voices had not yet reached ma
tlritN, their support in the chor-
uses was splendid from the low
EST bass notes to the delightfully."-
highest mote of the tenor. TIL,
young ladies and girls were
wonder and were the especial
recipients of favors from the an
dien3e. The Duets, and Quar-
tettes, were well rendered and
showed patient and industrious
work and cultivation, the eos
tunes We're all appropriate to
the characters and gained much
communication. I'm so large
number nearly fifty, it would be
invidious TO single out any for
special mention, as all deserved
and received hearty praise. The
Audience were given a wholesome,
refined, uplifting entertainment.
This has certainly been triumph
ant year for our High School
especially along the lines Of music
To the self-sacrificing and pains
taking efforts of the teachers
Miss White and Miss Bell, the
Former conducting and teaching
the music and the latter the drill
ling and dramatic work. is due
unstinted praise especiallv when il
IS known that with their other
miitifarious duties consequent
upon graduation and commence
ment. they gave their time To the
production of this play for ben
eft of the Athletic Club Of the
High School. A handsome SUM
was realized for the treasury of
the Club. II is doubtful if ever
better satisfied audience passed
ont of the doors of the EFks The
atrn. than the ono Of Wednesday
night.

You seldom find a saving fam

A family paying rent has no
special incentive to save, but the
family that buys home has a
special object to save for. They
at once realize that it is niue h
more important to save their mon
ey and pay for their home than
to waste 1t foolishly, and if they
have borrowed money from this
Association they can pay it back
in easy monthly payments.

AerOplane and Gunboat

IT is reported that, Dher Mason, the aviator, who is assisting one
has compelled Two Mexican gunboats to fee from the harbor OF Quay
mas by the simple expedient of dropping bombs upon them from his
aeroplane.
The incident is tremendously suggestive. 1t is true that the Mexicans
have n OF the reputation OF being the bravest men,. but we suspect that
the thing that put their gunboats to flight might have had a similar
effect o people drawer than they. This matter of standing still As the
recipient of deadly missiles from the sky would not be likely to ON
mend itself to anybody.
And if IL great ships OF war "a be put to flight or destroyed by a
tiny aeroplane, why are We still expendng cores or hundred OF millions
Of dollars in constructing such ship $: millions that might be employed
to the vast benefit of the people? Does it OF look as if this might
be stupcndous folly? Nor should it be said that this is strictly a lay
mans view, for experts of al have urged that the arrival OF the aero
plane herads the passing of the war ship.
There is at least room for suspi cmn that every ship OF war low built
is a great embodiment OF foolish waste. Experts who are o interested
