Kdwin Charles Itoudop, the “Voting Irish Jlaritoue,’’ to he at May Festital. Mr. Edwin Charles Rowdon, was | born in Tiperary, Ireland, his parents moving to America while he was a ■ ' child. His sobriquet of “The Young Irish Baritone,’’ consequently is one ! which is his “by right divine.” He is among the younger genera- t tion of singers, one who exemplifies ; in the highest manner the art of singing. His art is a demonstration ' of the fact that singing is not merely a matter of voice cnkure, but is ! rather an accompaniment of the i musical tones which intensify and ! adorn a sentiment or the story con- ! veyed in the song. His voice, a pure ringing basso ; cantante, together with a sympathe- i tic temperament, more than the i prescribed amount of gray matter and a tremendous capacity for hard work, has earned him well deserved success. His phasing personality and native charm of manner, have i WOMEN AND SOCIETY. [All communications to tills column should be addressed to l*.

Mr. Rowdon studied abroad for about seven years with tbe best of the old world masters. He bad been engaged in his work in Chicago for about three years, and the success, which has been his in his oratorio and concert work, has likewise at tended him in his work as a vocal instructor.

Byers, with the enthusiastic assist ance of the fair young ladies from Limestone, is moving along right merrily. The result of the first day’s work was exceedingly gratifying to all concerned. However, much more work must be done before the success of the event which means so much to our city is assurred. Let us one and ail respond readily to those who approach us with the in terest of the festival at heart. The price of a season ticket is only $2 30, which will admit to ail of the live per formances and enable you to hear the foremost musical artists of two conti nents. Tbe welfare of the city and the fu ture prosperity of the college demand that we support this festival—the best festival of the year in the South Atlantic States. Give tbe ticket canvassers a hearty welcome and engage a season ticket for the festival. The season tickets at the low price of !|!2 50 will be on sale but a few days longer. Cuufedsrute Kolillen.
