All over the state, much tav
orable comment and publicity
has been given the event with
various state newspapers carry
ing huge headlines and photo
graphs of the many events that
made the Third Annual Caro-
linaS Yam Festival the climax OF
of them all to date.
Opening with 30-odd-fioat
parade on Thursday morning,
and closing with a well-attended
successful square dance on Sat
urday night, good time and an
educational program was enjoy
ed by all.
The parade, said to be the
best during the short history OF

the town and ended on Railroad
street. Representative F. Ertel
Carlyle, Congressman from this
the Seventh Congressional Dis
srict, officially opened the cele'
bration after the parade when he
spoke on the air and to the spect'
atorS.
"These are uncertain times in
so far as the world situation is
concerned" Carlyle said. There
are only two great powers in the
world today capable of defending
themselves, Russia and the Unit
ed States. Right now just what
the future holds, no one knows
Carlyle also said "Everythins
of material value comes from the
earth and eventually returns
there" in connection with the
sweet potato, the product which
is the foundation of the Yam
Festival.
Mayor w. A. Williams introduc
ed Congressman Carlyle. Short
remarks were made by A. c
Edwards, chairman of the Yam
Festival committee, and Other
local persons.
Following opening addresses
spectators flocked through tho
highly decorated exhibit hall ano
again marveled at the great cul
tural benefits of the North Caro-
lima State College sweet potato
booths. The booths, both from
State College and those displayed
by private concerns, were sale
to be better prepared and more
of them than in past years.

Sergt. Roth still has dog
cared copies of "Jefferson's
March" and THE Madison
March," played at the 1909
inaugural ball, when Madison
succeeded jefferson. President
Madison was not musically in
clined, but since Dolly Madi-
son had a fondneSS for waltzes
the bands waltz repertoire ex-
panded at that time. Presi-
dents Monroe and John Quincy
Adams liked arrangements for
orchestra and piano, but An
drew Jackson preferred bal
lads such as The Girl Left

nets Over the Border" Presi-
dent Lincoln, partial to Negro

and THE Turbaned Turk That

fore his assassination.

a period of great expansion.
World War I is we'll represent
ed in the collection with copies
of martial airs, both American
and foreign, and ballads of
the period. A few years later
many foreign publishers who
had specialized in orchestral
and band arrangements went
out of business. This, coupled
with the lack of such publish
ing in this country and the
dearth of complete original
scores, made the library's
stock particularly valuable.
During the Coolidge ad-
ministration, Vice President
Dawes occasionally sat with
the bandSmen at the White
House. A flutiSt of some tai
ent, he composed Melody" a
piece which is still played. His
manuscript and the first
printing are in the library.
The band wore out many
copies of Home on the
Range" and yellow Rose OF
Texas" while Franklin D.
Roosevelt occupied the White
House. He requested that they
be included at every per-
formance there. Another Spe-
cial number added to the
library at that time was
the Franklin D. Roosevelt

| FreScnOOl cnudren can't lose
in the games" they're playing
this month at the Washington
Hearing Society.
The games-hide-and-seek, with
a slight variation, and find the
toy on the table-are just new
forms of fun to the kids, but
actually they are hearing tests.
The Washington Hearing So
ciety tested the first of $50 pre-
school children between the ages
OF 2 and yesterday at Friendship
Settlement House, 619 D street
Sc. Before the month is out,
society volunteers will have tested
children at six other settlement
houses, two church nurseries and
six Government day-care centers.
'Pick up the ball and put it in
the box" Mrs. Henry Lichtenberg
whispered 20 feet across the room
to 3-year-old Marilyn Appel.
Marilyn was sitting at a card
table with some 2o-odd toys with
in reach. She giggled and fol-
lowed Mrs. Lichtenberg's instruc-
tions again and again, without
looking at her as she talked.
Speech Discrimination.
This game test showed Marilyn
had good speech discrimination.
because she didn't confuse vowel
sounds and pick up the toy horse
instead Of the toy house, or a
chair instead of a chick.
Two Of the IA children tested
yesterday will be examined next
week to determine whether their
blank looks and failure to react to
Mrs. Lichtenberg's whispers can't
be attributed to a hearing diff
Guilty or just shyness. If they
stu have difficulty with the tests
their parents will be advised by
the society to have their ears
tested by an audiometer.
Mrs. Lichtenberg, chairman of
the education committee, said the
game tests work better for chill
dren. since the black audiometer
box frightens them.
There's nothing about the hide
and-seek test that frightens the
youngsters, though. They were
anxious to continue looking for
Mrs. Lichtenberg when she rang
oells, made a noise like a cricket
or blew a horn. That was the
sound discrimination test to find
out whether the child could deter
mine from which part of the room
the sound came.

the way they are used, which
makes the charming, inviting, hos

cOrding to Mr.. Handy, the five ma

were color, design, pattern, pro-
portion and balance.
