VOL. XVII. ALLDAY SINGING. Old Folks to Sing From Sacred Harp Song book at Baptist Church. There will be an all-day old folks singing at the Baptist church on tne first Sunday in November, and all are invited to attend. The book used will be the old Sacred Harp a book well known to tin* old people, and especially Georgians. The book has been used all over the South, and has done a world of good. The music is the purest type of the sacred music of America, much of it having been composed by men who knew little of the classic church music of the Old W orld and they -were not influenced by the standards that are in use in England or in the European countries. The music in the Sacred Harp was composed by men who passed through the great religious revivals that swept over this land during the latter part of the first half of the nineteenth cen tury and they were greatly inspired to express their religious feelings in the language of sacred song. There is a seriousness and solemnity in many of the tunes that will not be popular in a frivolous age like the present, but they were exactly fitted to voice, the religious emotions of men.whose religion was a serious matter, whose views of lift* was that f it meant chiefly a preparation for eternity, and whose earthly ex pressions were but a pilgrimage to an eternal home.
