The May Day Festival
A Success
BY L. l.. McVay

One could not wish for any more
interest than was manifested at
the first annual May Day Festival,
sponsored by the Omaha Guide
than was shown at st. John AME
church on Sunday, May 16, 1887.
In this mass of voices of three
brndred young Negro boys and
g'rls, one could see u future men
ard women. Too much praise can
not b. given to Mr.. S. E. Gilbert
Of tn Omaha Guide, better known
to Guidites as Uncle Gill; and Miss
Ethel Sones, an Omaha young wo-
man of great musical ability, for
their fine work in their first at
tempt to show just what the youth
of Omaha can do.
We do not wish to forget the
many sponsors and directors who
showed such a fine spirit of CO.
operation in making this day a
success. Perhaps the results of the
work at Bethel Baptist church in
South Omaha, whose queen was
Miss Pricilla Gilden, was the best
demonstration of what can be done
with a little cooperation. Miss
Gilden is the daughter of Mrs.
Carrie Gilden and is a senior for in
South high school.
Miss Gilden, bringing the highest
amount of nbney, $12O.64, was
crowned May Day Queen for 1887.
Just as the Goodwill Spring Mu-
steal, organized and directed by L..
L. McVay, will have to have a lar
ger auditorium in which to pre-
sent the program next year, so
will the May Day Festival as be-
tween 900 and 1000 people attend
ed this year. Let US hope that ev-
cry citizen of Omaha will give
these two movements their 100 per
cent support because they are
worthwhile and uplifting. There
have been good things started in
Omaha, but killed in a short time,
but the May Day Festival and the
Goodwill Spring Musical r here
to stay.

Interesting Facts about Songs

Interesting Facts about Songs
re Know: Home Sweet Home
Home Sweet Home was writ
ten by a homeless man, John Ho-
ward Payne, born in New York in
1892; and he did not collect a cent
for it, even though its popularity
swept the world. Payne has been
wept over for generations as the
poor, wandering, homeless a
However, he was not poor, on the
contrary he was rather successful
as an actor, a producer and the
author Of sixty plays.
Some of his best works were
written while he occupied a luxu-
rious suite in the best part of Par
is. Payne was awandere r; but it
was because he liked to wander, and
he was homeless because he would
not stay at home.
Home Sweet Home first appear
as a solo in Payne's opera 'Clari'
or The Maid of Milan which in
itself was really an adaptation of
a play which had already been pre-
scented. In this play, Clari, who had
run away with a duke, hears a
group of strolling players sing a
song of the native land, which so
strongly moves her that she re-
turns home. This song was the
famous Home Sweet Home
The music was not original with
Payne, as it had previously been
published in a collection compiled
by the famous British composer,
Henry Rowley Bishop, who called
it a Sicilian air.
The story of the Star Spangled
Banner will appear in next weeks
issue.

giving them full value in accom-

Arthur l.. Pepper, general rep

told The TimeS-NewS that Cor

his statement that North Carolina
should take a leaf from Florida's

true that Florida cities might
"learn something from North Car

said there should be greater CO.

less knocking of each other.
