HAMPTON LITERARY SOCIETY
e<
The Splendid Entertainment at w
School Auditorium last Friday ^
t(
Night, the Occasion being the
Society's Annual Public Meeting.' ft
d
The general verdict of the au- vn
dience that filled the graded c<
school auditorium Friday night ft
at the annual public meeting F
of the Hampton Literary Society fi
was that the entire occasion and Si
every feature of it was entitled i w
to high praise. I v
The Society was called to or-! ir
der by the president. James jh
Beaty, whose opening address of L
welcome was greeted with en- e;
^ thusiastic applause that was n
' fully deserved by his appropriate n
remarks delivered clearly and j A
forcefully. He presided through-1 a
out with credit to himself and e
to the Society. p
The participants in the decla- o
mation contest for the g?ld "medal
given by Mr. John T. Green, p
were Roddey Bell. Elbe Hath- \
cock, Frank Green, Evelyn Sow-Jg
ell, Lawson Elliott. Frances c
Massey. It is no idle remark to J
say that they all did well, and1 s
particularly noticeable was the! a
fact that they were easily heard n
in all parts of the auditorium. 1 F
This medal will be given annual- J
ly by Mr. Green. : f;
The judges of the contest were l
Prof. .j. A. Stoddard, of Heath w
Springs, Prof. R. N. Nisl>et of
Wax haw. and Mr. O. (\ (Vox ton r.
of Lancaster. The contestants IV
were unknown to the judges ex- <>
cept by numbers. The medal a
was presented to the winner, (;
Frank Green, by Prof. Stoddard, b
who made an excellent speech of fi
presentation and in particular t<
impressed the fact . that he b
was presenting the medal to 0
a young man whose name was is
unknown to him. The decision ('
of the judges was unanimous, w
? . though they gave special men- f5
tion to Miss Effie Hathcock and ty.
Roddey Bell. a.
The subject for the debate was a<
"Resolved, that the United States n
Government should own and con- b
trol the railroads." Mr. John h
Reed Boldridge and Miss Kate ei
Mines spoke for the affirmative,
and Mr. Cantson Moore and Miss jt
Esther Byrd for the negative. T
The papers were well prepared e:
and were all good, and a special n
feature was that they were spoken
openly and not merely read
from manuscript. The judges
were Mr. W. T. Gregory, Mr. m
a. ,j. uiark and Dr. J. D. Fun- J \
derburk, and their decision was:'
for the negative.
The stage was beautifully decorated.
and this together with,
the numerous excellent pictures]
which have been placed in the;
auditorium, made the place very i
attractive. Miss Inez McCaniell.
Secretary of the Society, an (
nounced the program, which in
addition to its other good tea- 1
tures, was not so long as to he J
tedious. Every one present was: o
enthusiastic regarding the ex-' T
cellence of the meeting, and the j^,
order and quiet was a subject of' w
general comment and praise j jl
The first feature of the pro
gramme was a reading by Miss
Leila Harper, which was much i
enjoyed. The music by Misses Nannie
Hill Moore, Bleeka Hinson,
Eliza Wylie, Jessie Lee
Blackmon. and Marie Roddey, 1
was of distinctively high order 0
and reflected credit on all concerned.
The ovation of the evening was
given to the quartette composed
of Messrs. James Beaty,
Will Plyler. Eugene Elliott, and T
Kf.ii r/i _
.vianey rerguson. i ney were | *
forced by prolonged applause to
to respond to three encores.
Mr. S. J. Vincent, of the 11
Heath Springs section, and his *
son, Mr. J. W. Vincent, of Barn-' p
well, were in town yesterday. ti
Messrs J. M. Hood and A. 1. '
Gregory returned Sunday from ,,
JSt. Louis, where they bought a i
nice lot of horses and mules. 1
