to Lake Rabun where all the class

ride fr many of us. When we left
Lake Rabun, we stopped for a
while at Panther Creek and then
left for home.

Enthusiastic And Responsive Audience .. ..
Enjoyed Univ. Men's Glee Club Concert
The expertly prepared and per
formed concert of University
Men’s Glee Club here in Fine Arts
Auditorium last night was highly
praised by an enthusiastic and re
sponsive local audience.
Presenting a program in five
groups, which embraced a very
wide variety of musical types and
styles without losing face in the
matter of good programming, the
choral group, in last night's per
formance, more than justified the
acclaim which has been accorded
the club and its director,-Byron
Warner, in many sections of the
state.
Traditional Songs
The Lachrymosa (Requiem),
Mozart, and the Coronation Scene
(Boris Godunov) by Moussorgsky,
were the highpoints in the first
group. Also Included were the
traditional opening medley-—Geor
gia Songs — and the Randall
Thompson Tarantella. ‘
Miss Margaret Church, soprano,
gave a sensitive performance of
Puccini's “Un Bel Di” from “Ma
dame Butterfly,” and Miss Edith
Blair, soprano, charmed the audi=-
ence with her rendition of the
“Doll Song” from “Tales of Hoff
man” by ‘Offenbach,
Miss - Jackie ‘Anderson’s per
formance of the “Gypsy Song”
from Bizet’s “Carmen” = with
Misses Church and Blair in sup
port was very well received. The
trio’s .rendition of a Warner ar
rangement of Strauss’ “Voci di
Primravera” — (Spring Voices)
proved -a light and pleasing con
cluding selection for.the group.

O. C. O. Home Club
Entertained By
Mrs. C. A. Ward
On Thursday, April 12, the O.C.
O. Home Demonstration Club met
at Rucliff Farm, the home of Mrs.
C. A. Ward, for a spend-the-day
quilting party.
During the afternoon the club
held its regular monthly meeting
with Mrs. Ward, president, presid
ing. Mrs. Felton Spinks gave the
devotional, taking her text from
the sixth chapter of John and clos
ing with prayer. The business of
the month was transacted, and
the meeting turned over to Mrs.
Smith, Home Demonstration
Agent. She gave an interesting and
informative talk on “How to Make
the Most of Your Figure.”
Using charts showing the eight
common figure faults, she illus
trated how each might be mini
mized by properly designed cloth
ing and hair styling. She also ex
plained the “Rule of Fourteen” in
scoring the eye-arresting points
of one’s ensemble. The application
of this rule makes a lady certain
about the costume she wears.
The members were enthusiastic
over a plastic purse Mrs. Smith
made to show them. She gave
them a list of materials and in
structions to follow in making si
milar ones.
~ Mrs. Spinks, project chairman in
‘clothing, brought a timely arti
cle on the figure problem of the
short woman. She stated, “Simpli
city is always high fashion, and
accessories in scale-with the size
of the figure are always most
most pleasing.” -
The meeting and quilting party
ended about four-thirly when the
hostess invited the members into
the lving room for ice cream,
cake, and hot coffee. The social
period was devoted to discussing
club plans and exchanging re
cipes for dishes members had
brought for the dinner at mnoon.
Much interest was shown .in the
home improvement projects Mrs.
Ward is carrying out and a collec
tion of pottery which she and
Mr. Ward have made recently ir

sung by Misses Blair, Church and
Anderson, vied with “Hang On the
Bell, Nellie,” wrung dry by W. C.
Owen, for top honors in the third
group. Other selections included
the chorus singing “Jonah and
the Whale,” and “On a Hill.” Walt
Springer and the club offered
“The Rose of Tralee,” and re
sponse was such that Mr. Springer
sang the popular “Be My Love” as
an encore, “Give iMe Hand-Hoded
Music,” sung, shouted, ecried and
literally executed by W. €. Owen,
the club and the Misses Church,
Blair and Anderson with the aid
of a guitar-fiddle ssombo, brought
down the house.
Following intermission the
rarely performed ‘Testament of
Freedom” by Randall Thompson
was given a finely studied and
well - thought - through perform=
ance by the entive club. This cho=
ral work, in four parts, is accom~
panied by an instrumental ensem=
ble, and the accompanyin§ group
last night was made up of mem
bers of the club. It is unsual that
a large choral organization such as
the glee club should have enough
instrumentalists in its ranks to.
form such an enesemble,
Closing the program was a
group of selections from contem
porary operettas and musical
comedies, Audience response was
quite often overwhelming during
this group, the familiarity of many
of the selections perhaps height=
ening the total effect of the group.
In addition to the listed program
the entire musical ensemble sang
the Georgia Alma Mater and
Dixie.

“38th Parallel”
To Be Shown ™"
Tonight In Athens
The Sound movlnfl picture in
color, “The 38th Parallel” will be
shown Thursday evennig, April
19th, at the Boulevard Baptist
Church at 7:30.
The picture was made bf Bob
Pierce who is known as a mission
ary ambassador and who produced,
some time ago, a picture showing
the effect of Communism in China.
The puplic is cordially invited to
see this picture “The 38th Paral
lel” About one third of it will be
war scenes, showing the GI boys
in action and the balance of the
picture will portray the wonderful
spiritual revival in Korea that
took place last spring and summer
at which time over 30,000 were
added to the church.
The Communist attack on June
25 came just at the time that God’s
Spirit was sweeping many into the
church, and demonstrating God’s
power in a most miraculous way.
On account of the war this great
manifestation of God’s power did
not register with the public here
because we were so absorbed in
the war.
- For this reason, the picture will
be particularly refreshing to all as
to God’s power to transform peo
ple and nations.
Rev. H. E. Wright, pastor of the
‘Boulevard Baptist Church, has an=
nounced the public is cordially
invited to see this pictue this ev
ening at the Boulevard Baptist
Church.
