BAND AND GLEE CLUB CONCERT
AND EXCLAMATION CONTEST

BAND AND GLEE CLUB CONCERT.
AND DECLARATION CONTEST
One of the best all-round programs
ever given at Wentworth came on
Saturday night. The Glee Club and
band gave a concert and the annual
defamation contest was held. Due
to the rain that fell in the afternoon
the exercises were held in the gym
nasium instead Of on the lawn al is
the usual custom. But evidently the
rain kept no one away. A large
crowd that taxed the seating capac-
ity of the gym assembled-hundreds
Of cadets, visitors, Central girls, and
town people. /.
The w. M. A.. band opened the pro-
gram. 1t must have been a pleasure
for Major Day to WELD the baton in
front of a group of musicians like
that. The forty cadets were perfect
ly trained, they obeyed the conduct
or as one man, and they had marck-
ed musical ability. Many visitors
pronounced it as the best amateur
band they had ever heard. At any
rate all Wentworth was proud of that
popular organization which has add.
ed so much to school life.
Every number that the band rem.
dered should have special mention
The first selection was Sousa's noble
and spirited "Star and Stripes For
ever" played with such feyor that Il
almost swept the audience from it
feet. Then followed a beautiful
piece full of delicate harmony AM

ever popular Southern melodie. Mex

contest had been held. Six cadets
took part and perhaps never before
has Wentworth had such a contest in
which all participants were so evenly
matched. 1t was really difficult to-
say that one was better than the
other. Bobbett led off with a selec-
ton in which he showed fine control
and composure. Sanders was very at
tractiye in "Afeard Of a Gal" and
Quinn delivered an oratorical selec-
ton written by himself in an inn
pressive manner. But the gold med
al was awarded to Halper, who gave
Hamlet's Soliloquy in splendid style,
and the silver medal went to Cadet
Rhodes, who gave "Thanatopsis."
Martin C, F., won an unusual honor
in this contest. In giving "Ben Hur
and Iris" he won first place over all
deelaimers but due to the fact that
he won the medal last year he was
ineligible to receive the medal but
was given this high honor. Capt.
Sackett trained the declaimers.
The Glee Club also made a great
hit in its selections. The chorus
work was excellent and the voices
blended well. The boys were equally
good on a rollicking sea-song, like
Sailing" or on a harmony selection
like "Settin' Aroun' the Fire" Their
rendition of "Carmena" showed what
they could do with q really difficult
piece. The audience would have lik-
ed to have encores but the club sang
la straight program. Much credit i;
due to Major Celemens, director, anC
J Mr.. Little, accompanist, who have
accomplished so much with the sing
ers.

Accurate Road Signs Enable

A most striking illustration Of the
tremendous amount Of cross-country
travelling being done today by auto
mobile was given recently by Lynn
McNaughton. general sales manager
Of the Cadillac Motor Car Company.
who stated that in two days auto
mobile travelling in New York state
he counted the tags Of thirty-six
states on automobiles that passed.
1.-THE automobile owner Of today
thinks no more of travelling through
q few states in his automobile than
he did a few decades ago of travel
ing by steam railroad to q nearby
town." comments Mr.. McNaughton.
And this practice is a tremendously
fine thing for our country. for now we
are beginning to get acquainted with
the charm and scenery of our own
country before going abroad.
Improvement Of Roads.
"But the most significant fact lies
In the vast improvement of roads and
