LOVE IN THE SUN
BY Walmsley
They rented an old army shack
on the Cornish coast. They had
almost no money, but they had
love and courage. Their life to-
gether. with it's cool acceptance of
hardship, it's continual delight of
the blue water, the careening
gulls, the harsh, invigorating sun
light. in making a garden and
building a solid fortnight house
out of crumbling shanty; in hav-
ing a child, and building a boat
all these blent harmoniously into
an honest, realistic idyll of which
Love in the Sun is the story. mas
much as it is the story of a man
and woman who loved each other
deeply and serenely, who lived
creatively-it is an old story; one
of the oldest and one Of the most
moving. But not often is this, or
any other story, told with the sim
plicity the indebtedness, and the
perpetual wonder that Leo Wal
msley brings out in this fine nov
ell. Out Of the sun, wind, and wat
err, out of bathing in the sunlight,
fishing in the rough Cornish wat
ers. hurricane, out of writing and
building, out of clean poverty and
courage, the author has written
this book that rings as bright, as
true as silver on rock.
FOUR PART SETTING

AS the wife of an English diplo-

far reaches of the Empire and
knows at first hand the urbane,
sensitive, and cosmopolitan exist

the setting for her new and most
accomplished novel.
-Four Part Setting" is the story
of Rose Pelham, a young and
pretty wife, who has made fail
ure Of her marriage and who now
comes to visit her cousins in
China in the hope Of regaining
her self-possession. The LIZARDS
are old China hands. Antony who

cheer her up he organizes an ex-

Mr.. Knutsen and his business

MUSIC
It was a sort Of grand finale
for the music students. Some of
them would perhaps like to go next
year, but this is their last time as
they are seniors. The Music Festi-
val every year is really what makes
the long hard practice fun. The
thrill of playing in the mass ORCH
estra or band is one not to be for
gotten. Those who sing in the
mass chorus enjoy it too. Outside
of that fact that one gets much
musical knowledge out of festival
Of this type there is the social side
of it. The mingling with students
from other schools is a pleasant
experience.
Glenwood was no place for the
unfortunates in need of rest and
quiet for the town was overflow
ing with kids"
Tired, very tired in fact, but
happy the students came home.
Another music festival was over
and to put it ordinarily "a good
time was had by all"

The Tipping I classes are working
original letters, introduction of

composed by the students and typ

Faith Baldwin written such a rich,

Germ Over Little Interest
In 63 Counties

RALEIGH, May 6.-R-Demo-
cratic leaders expressed concern to-
day over what they termed a "vir-
tually negligible" registration in So
counties which ordered new regis
t%rations under the 1889 election re-
form laws.
Governor Hoey and W. A. Lu-
cas- of Wilson,, chairman of the
state board of elections, said re-
ports indicated that only about
nine per cent of the voters had re-
registered as of last Friday.
Fearful that only about Is or 20
per cent will place their names on
the books before the close of reg
istration Saturday evening, Cover
nor Hoey announced that he would
make a statewide talk over the
radio at 7:15 p. m. Wednesday,
urging residents of the So coun-
ties to register.
Both Lucas and I are deeply
concerned over this situation"
said Governor Hoey. This is the
first registration of a statewide
scope in 25 or more years, and the
people are not responding as they
should"
The registration books were
opened April 27, when registrars
went to the polling places to list
the names of voters. Only a small
percentage of the otherwise quail
fled voters appeared at the polls.

For the remainder of this week,
persons may register by going tt
the homes of the registrars, anc
the registrars will be at the polls

The Governor said that unless
persons registered as soon as pos
sible there would be a very small
vote in the first and second pri-
maries. Another registration perioc
will be held before the genera.

Cotton Crop Insurance
Vetoed By Roosevelt

WASHINGTON, May 6.-P-A
bill setting up a system of cotton
crop insurance, similar to the exist
ing wheat insurance program, was
vetoed today by President Roosevelt
and it's proponents said there was
little chance congress would over
ride the veto.
Mr.. Roosevelt said, in his veto
message, that the wheat program
was experimental! and that sufficient
experience had not yet been accu-
mulated to warrant it's extension to
other crops.
Under the Insurance plan, the
farmer pays premiums in the form
of wheat and, when crops are bad,
receives wheat to reimburse him for
his losses, up to rs per cent Of the
crop.
