The public ledger. [volume] (Maysville, Ky.) 1913-1968, 1919-12-10

My Dear Friends and Fellow Citizens:
In this hour I am at once the proud
est and humblest Of men. Proud be-
You'd all words, OF the confidence OF
the people Of my State and the loyalty
OF my friends-humble in the con-
seriousness Of great responsibility In
the presence OF supreme duty.
All the thrill that comes with VIC
tory is gone-lost in the compelling
sense of obligation and In the full real
ization of the vital Importance Of the
task that awaits me and the apprehen-
sion Of my ability to meet the emery
ency Of this great undertaking.
The passion, bitterness and strife OF
the late campaign are over-forgotten
and forgiven alike by all. We are no
longer divided. We can now behold,
with vision undimmed by partinsan-
ship and unclouded by prejudice, the
real meaning Of the peoples Will as
registered under law. The unpreced-
ented vote given the successful candi-
dates for State Offices means more
than a choice between men; 1t thun-
ders forth the peoples ballot of re-
buke", to unfaithful servants and in
efficient execution of public trust,
while 1t proclaims in unmistakable
terms their approval Of certain pro-
posed and pledged constructive and
progressive legislation.
The platform of political party Is
its solemn OFFER to contract with the
people. and when that offer is accept
ed by the suffrage of the people a
covenant is made-a covenant sound
ing in honor and sealed with the great
seal of the Commonwealth.
My party has made such a contract
with the people of Kentucky. AS Its
candidate for the exalcted position to
which they elected me, acted as Its
agent in the making Of this compact.
AS your Governor l am your Trus-
tee. impressed with the obligation OF
fulfilling its conditions. l admit with
grateful and overlooking heart the
consideration upon which it is founded
the expressed confidence of splendid

OLD AGE DEFERRED

"a woman is as old as she looks and
a man is as old as he feels, Is a
familiar saying that is full Of mean
ing nowadays. Women Of all ages
dress young, and men are active as
,,0ls as strength and vitality will per-
nit; but when vitality gets low and
elderly people lack energy there is
nothing that will increase the appetite
promote sleep, vim and vitality so
surely and quickly as Vinol. the cod
liver and iron tonic without oil,-in
fact, most druggists have such conf
dence in 1t that they sell 1t on guar
antee.

j. Conrado Tovar, whose ben
eft Piano recital is announced
for Monday evening, January
9th at $50 o'clock, at The Lyric
Theatre, is unquestiOnably the
representative piano virtuoso of
Mexico.
This artist has just completed
a tour of Mexico. where he gave
81 concerts, visiting practically
every city IN the Republic, and
he has the Endorsements of the
press and the public wherever
he appeared.
In his recital for Monday night
he will include in his programme,
compositions from Chopin, Ru-
bernstein, Debussy, Poldini, to-
gether with SHINE masters prac-
tically new to this country, viz:
Grovelez, Albinez and Granados.
This in itself will be a musical
treat to the people of Nogales,
from the fact that Tovar is a
pupil of Granados, who in torn
was pupil of Albinez; so Tovar
has had the advantage of &C
curing the interpretations of
these wonderful compositions
just as the composers intended
them to be nterpretered. His
nterpreta tions of these unique
and quaint classic numbers is an
achievement that can only be
acquired by long and tedious
practice under tutelage of mast
ers who can impart their in
SEPARATIONS of the song stories so
unusual and colorful, that to
hear them, one is impressed with
the wonderful light and shadows
so beautifully blended in these
compositions, and Tovar seems
to grasp and live every mood in
his rendition of them.
Mrs. A. M. Gillespie will assist
Mr.. Tovar in the form of So
prano solo, and to the public of
Nogales, it is needless to men
ton that this popular soprano
soloist will contribu very much
to the artistic value of an elab-
crate programme.
Mr.. Tovar is about to begin
two years tour of the United
States and Canada, with Cuba
and South America to follow.
