AMERICA AT WAR DAY-BY-DAY

~ Years Ago TOday-Senator Will
liam E. Borah demanded that the
American people be told what they
were fighting for. The time had come
he said, when they should be told spe-
officially and definitely the terms and
conditions upon which they would
cease to fight
Russians on the Austro-Hungarian
front were in mutinous, disorderly re-
treat, yet royal Russian divisions on
the Rumanian front were driving back
the enemy. On this date, they made
an attack which won them ground,
1000 prisoners, 81 heavy guns, ten
flame throwers and II machine guns.
Paris was attacked by German air
men on two successive evenings in the
first air raids on the French capital
since Jan. 1916. Bombs were drop
ped on four different sections. Only
six persons were killed and a dozen
wounded!

f. What relief for small whisky dis
tillers was sought in 1869?
s. What Indian name was given
North Carolina governors?
g. What was Hillsboro's first name
and when was the town chartered?
ANSWERS
1. In 1915 the legislature approp-
rated $4,000 from the Literary Fund
for establishing the school. In addi-
ton to this sum each county was re-
quired to pay SIS for each student
sent to the institution. Today the in
stitution has a plant valued at over
one million dollars and an operating
appropriation of over 100000.
g. John Urmstone, sent to North
Carolina by the Society for the Pro-
pogation of the Gospel, wrote the sec
rotary in London, October Is, 1718,
saying, America and the Climate
Kills many 1 am informed there have
9 or 10 Clergymen died in Virginia

many less in South Carolina, some are
of the opinion that my life is owing
under God to poor living sparing and
ordinary diet with much exercise and
sometimes hard labor

T. At that time there was special

monopolies, as against the small man

representatives. from this State to en-
deavor to secure a change so as to
make a plant making not over 100
gallons annually not liable for the
$500 license.
s. A chief of the Tuscaroras visited
Governor Tryon's home at Brunswick
in 1865. While there he was found to
be sick. In appreciation of the care
and treatment given him by the gov
ernor the Indian gave Governor Tryon
the Indian name of Diagawekce
which was his own. 1t was Governor
Tryon's wish that this be the Indian
name for all North Carolina COVER

6. The present town of Hillsboro
was chartered in 1859 under the name
of Childsburg. Seven years later the
chatter was amended and the name
changed to Hillsborough.

IN CHILDREN'S SERIES

TOBY TYLER, or Ten Weeks With
a Circus" James Otis familiar
story of the little boy who ran away
to join circus, comes to the National
Theater in play form Saturday morn
ing, April 10, as the sixth and last
play in this season of the Children's
Theater of New York.
Toby Tyler and his little monkey
friend, Mr.. Stubbs, have long been
favorites with American youngsters
through the pages of James Otis book.
They are as popular on the stage as
any of the well-known story book
characters which the Childrens Thea
ter actors portray.
To know that Toby was once a real
boy who underwent experiences SIM
liar to the fictitious lads, adds greatly
to the interest of children of today in
his story. For Toby once returned to
Uncle Daniels farm, continued to live
there, married and had children of
his own, and it was their repeated de-
mands for the story of Toby's 10 weeks
with circus from the authors own
lips, that eventually led him to write

THROAT AILMENT BARS
TIBBETT CONCERT HERE

THE song recital by Lawrence Tib-
bett, baritone of the Metropolitan
Opera, scheduled to take place yester-
day afternoon at o'clock at Consti-
tuition Hall, was cancelled at the last
moment, due to the illness of the
artist. Patrons arriving at the hour
of the performance were told, how
ever that the concert would be given
on Saturday afternoon, April 3, at 3
o'clock, and that seats for yesterdays
concert would be accepted at that
time. Mr.. Tibbett was being pre-
sented by Dorothy Hodgkin Dorsey
as next to the last artist on her Sum
day afternoon series at Constitution
Hall.
The singer, arriving after an ardu-
Gus concert and operate season, Sat-
day evening went directly to the May
flower Hotel. Awakening next morn
ing with serious case of laryngitis,
and not wishing to disappoint his au-
dience, Mr.. Tibbett requested his man.
Mrs. Dorsey to recommend a physi-
clan. After several hours treatment
Mr.. Tibbett and his accompanist,
Stewart Willie, tried out his voice, but
at 3 o'clock it was decided the artists
condition was too serious to undertake
the recital. There was no time for
an announcement to be sent out, and
patrons were told of the cancellation
on their arrival at the hall
This is the first time in the several
years that Mr.. Tibbett has appeared
in concert in this city that he has
failed to sing as scheduled. AS has

Applause Demon
strates Worth of Mu-
sic to Students.
BY ALICE EVERSMAN.

TINE final student concert by the
National Symphony Orchestra
took place Saturday morning
in Constitution Hall, where
the young audiences, which had heard
the series this Winter in the different
high schools, joined together for this
farewell event. Boxes and every seat
in the auditorium was filled with
children Of all ages, who welcomed
DR.. Kinder with the kind of applause
that plainly showed the deep bond
of friendship between them.
The applause and the entire atti-
tude of the children speaks more
forcefully than anything else of the
value OF these concerts for the young.
They are not strangers any more to
either the conductor and his men or
to the music which they play for
them, and for the latter they have
developed sense Of discrimination
that fully repays for the hard work
| involved. That these concerts are a
source Of real pleasure to Dr. Kinder
and the orchestra cannot be doubted,
and when he expressed his regret that
this was the finish of the season, the
children showed that they felt the
| same way about it. Whatever profit
| has been given to the adults through
! the symphony concerts has been more
| than equaled by the growth of under
standing and appreciation in the
young people.
The Origins and Growth of Music,
which has been the general subject
of the concerts this year, reached the
music of Anglo-Saxon countries in
| Saturdays program. In illustration
the numbers chosen were Purcell's
'Passacaglia," MacDowell's "Trysting
Place" Grainger's Molly on the
Shore" and Skilton's Indian War

Each of the selections were first ex-
planned in interesting and amusing
fashion by DR.. Kinder.
The high point Of the program was
| the playing of two numbers, with the
orchestra augmented by the student
orchestra from the senior high
schools, which had been trained by
Capt Don Paul McAdoo and the in
strumental instructors of the schools
An orchestra of young girls and boys
nearly the size of the National SYM
phony came from the side sections o1
the hall at the call of DR.. Kinder and
occupied chairs in the front of the
stage. Under the baton of DR.. Kind
