CAN1ATA AT CENTRAL
 IS HIGHLY ENJOYED

Perhaps the most enjoyable evening of the year at Central College, thus far, was the cantanta, The Spanish Gypsy" given by the senior class on last evening. The stage setting, rep resenting a Spanish vineyard with it's aGbors of green vines and clusters of purple grapes, created perfect at mosphere for the rendition of the can tata. The characteristic costumes of the Spanish maids and gypsy girls added greatly to the effectiveness. The choruses were well sung and the act ing was natural and graceful. Espe- cially good and much appreciated were the solos by Misses Jane Cam mack, Juanita Bowen, Grace Sims and Edmonia Petty. After the can tata the senior class served delicious refreshments in the large dining room, and an informal reception was enjoyed for an hour.

SHERIFF ROSE SAYS
PAUL0 NEVER DRANK

According to Sheriff Rose, Paulo, a
famed character here 10 years ago.
never used liquor, and the statement
made in a local paper that he died
from "bad booze" is entirely incorrect.
!. "Paulo was a unique character"
said the sheriff. HE was blind, and
at times irascible, but never knew
him to drink My mother took care
of him until the day he died and I
knew him intimately for years and IN
all that time never knew him to drink.
"Paulo achieved fame by initiating
boat whistles. On pipes which he
made of bamboo he could blow an
exact imitation of the whistle of any
boat that came into the harbor here,
and when the double whistles began to
be used he fashioned new kind of
reed that exactly initiated these.
"Paulo died at my mothers, home
after many years residence in Homo
lulu" ..::1:l: -. ......
