IN UNUSUAL ENTERTAINMENT
Betsy Lane Shepherd Recital Decid-
ed Success.

Miss Betsy Lane Shepherd, the
famous soprano, was heard at the
school auditorium on last Thursday
evening in a very unusual recital to
which number of prominent mus
tcians and music lovers had been in
vtted and in which she was assisted
by Mr.. Graham Harris. an accom-
phshed Violinist and special repre-
sentative of Mr.. Thos. A. Edison. Mr..
Harris stated that the purpose of
the recital was to present examples
OF Mr.. Edison's New Art-Sound Re-
Creation. Mr.. Harris explained that
Mr.. Edison, the original inventor of
the phonograph, had cherished, for
years the ambition to perfect a musi-
cal instrument which would Re
Create music without the character
1stic tones of the talking machines.
Miss Shepherds appearance was

the :heans to illustrate that Mr.. Edi-
son has realized his ambition. She
sang number of selections previous
ly made for Mr.. Edison. MISS Sheph-
erd paused from time to time thus
permitting the Recreation to be
heard alone, in comparison. So far as
the quality of the tone was concern
ed, it was impossible to distinguish
the living voice from the Re-Crea-
ton. Miss Shepherd possesses one of
those rare voices which are always
pure and colorful, and with no me-
tallic or hard quality, voice. in
fact, which is about as different from
the familiar tones of the talking ma
chimes as anything could we'll be-
Mr.. Edison's Recreation of it had
the same beautiful texture and tone
quality and carried no suggestion of
being an imitation. 1t was the same
voice. The result was that, while the
recital was undoubtedly demon
stration of the New Edison, there
was no less aesthetic enjoyment for
that reason.
The Dillon herald. [volume] (Dillon, S.C.) 1894-????, 1918-05-23

In addition to the selections rem
dered by Miss Shepherd and Mr..
Harris. the program was rounded out
by Re-Creations which covered the
entire range of modern music-full
Symphony Orchestra, the piano and
male voices, and by comparison OF
the tones of two different violen Re-
Creations. This comparison was made
to prove that even the characteristic
tones of different violins are not lost
when Reiterated by the wizard Edi-
son.

The Missionary Conference.

On the 29th, 3Oth and 31st of this
month the South Carolina Confer
ence of the Woman's Missionary So
ciety will be held in Dillon. The
Conference will be composed of
about one hundred delegates from
the various societies in the State.
We deem it great privilege for
our town to have this many repre-
sentatives of SO noble a cause in our
midst.
Various committees have been ap-
pointed and arrangements are being
made by the people Of the communi-
ty generally to give the ladies a great
time while here. 1t will mean much
for Dillon not only to have these
fair visitors in our town, but, if they
are pleased with the manner in which
we entertain them, our town will
get the biggest advertisement it has
ever had, for these good women will
talk Dillon all over South Carolina
foi weeks to come.
We extend them most cordial
welcome for what they are within
themselves. Everybody knows that
the women are the chief factors in
our social life and the great forces
in molding our ideals. We welcome
them for the great cause which they
represent. In this day of the crash
or worlds and the wreck of civiliza-
ton the Gospel of Jesus Christ is
the hope of despairing world. The
supreme lesson of the world-strug-
gle now on is that the civilization
that is not Christian is doomed to
destruction. In the new world that
is to emerge from the present bap-
tsm of fire and blood the forces
represented by the Missionary work
ers must be the material entering in
to the new national and world fab
ric.
We welcome them for the bless
ing they will bring to our homes by
their presence. The Missionary work
ers are the most Christ-like charac-
ters and it is benediction to have
them in our homes. Next week the
good women will be in charge of the
town and the men are expected to be
on their good behavior.

WOMEN AND BABIES
MASSACRED BY HUNS
Whole Families Drowned When
Torpedoed Steamer Sinks; Heart
rending Scenes at Landing.

BY Associated Press to Every Evening
London, Sept 5.-Heartrending
scenes were witnessed here when humid
reds of survivors of the torpedoed steam
er Galway Castle we're landed at an
early hour Thursday morning. The pass
engers were mostly women and children,
and it is believed whole families have
been lost
Among the survivors were little tots
scarcely able TO walk crying in vain for
their parents Parents were searching in
all directions for news of their children
and women were seeking vainly for their
husbands.
There seems no reason TO doubt that
the vessel was torpedoed without warning.
The explosion occurred between the
engine room and the stokehold, fact
which is taken to rule out any possibility
that the ship struck a mine
The nrush Of water was tremendous.
One engine was swept into the tunnel
from the engineroom and drowned
One boat was swampedI another was
damaged because the falls became fouled
and another was swept back against
the liner by wave and smashed by the
propeller.
Henry Burton, minister OF Railways
of the South African, joined with other
survivors in praising the devotion 10
duty and the self sacrifice Of the officers
of the ship and the men on the naval
vessels which rushed to the rescue
