THE
BUTTERFLY’S ®** ■J^t
TRAIL
lioii
BY ALBERT MARY THWEATT
THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK:
Music moves us, and we know
not why; we feel the tears, but
cannot trace their source. Is it
the language of some other state,
born of its memory? For what
can wake the soul’s strong instinct
of another world like music? —
L. E. Landon.
ST. STEPHEN'S GUILD
PRESENTS MUSICAL
In spite of the very
weather, a fairly large and most
appreciative audience was thrilled
with the presentation of a wonder-
ful musical program that was pre-
sented recently by St. Stephen’s
Guild of St. Matthew’s Episcopal
Church of which the Rev. Gustave
A Caution is rector.
Piano selections were rendered
by Albert Bacon and James Dray¬
ton. Vocal participants included
Mrs. Marian Roberts, Phillip
Hampton, and Miss Juanita Gil¬
bert. As usual, Mrs. Dorothy Ham¬
ilton’s performance on her ac¬
cordion was superb.
Little Miss Greer Gadsden and
Mrs. Fannie Jenkins played a
piano duet, “The Witches Flight.”
It filled all who knew little Greer
with great pride to see and hear
her wonderful rendition along with
Mrs. Jenkins whom we all know
as an accomplished pianist. They
were attired in identical evening
gowns designed and made by
Creel’s mother, Mrs. Ida J. Gads¬
den. Mother and Dad, aunts and
cgusins and other relatives wore
oh so proud. Just the other day
Greer was quite a little tot. Now
a most versatile and demure jun¬
ior Miss.
Mesdames Josephine Hubert and
Fannie Jenkins also played a piano
diibt; “Comedy Overture.” Their
performance was also superb. Mrs.
¥hif>crt’s most colorful evening
gWh of pink net with panels of
irridescent taffeta helped to bring
■ Isunshine into the auditorium in
contrast to the dreary, rainy
weather outside.
Other selections scheduled, but
, 1 , because of the rain the partici-
parlts were not able to appear, in-
“Clair de Dune” and “Blue
Hawaii” by the Serenettes and
. liilispfl'ac.tions by the Alfred E. Beach
,
High School Band under the di
rection of Peter Smalls.
The beautiful flowers for the
occasion were through through the tne. eour-
tesy of Porters Flower Box and
Ninon’s, Florist.
The program included a wealth
of advertisements. There were
around 125 patrons besides the
regular ticket holders. In all, in
spite of the weather, we think
that the affair was quite a suc-
Congratulations to the Guild for
being responsible for providing the
opportunity for such an
able program and to all of the
participants for their great
formanees.
