I must say a few words about the
singing sth Sunday night. I think
it was enjoyed by old and young
alike. So glad so many of the
young people in the different
churches arc learning the old
church songs. Not very many in
the congregation had ever heard
the old minor keyed piece, “Broad
is the Road That Leads to Death,”
sung in a church and while it was
sung by W. L. Barnett, soprano,
Rev. T. C. Hardman and C. M.
Barnett, Bass, with Mrs. T. C. Hard
man at the piano, singing the alto,
you could almost have heard a
cricket chirp. We missed the old
time tenor so much. Bethany,
ple Valley, Dry Pond and Oconee
were well represented, Cave Springs
having entertained the choirs that
day had a legal excuse. A two
horse wagon load of young folks
and some buggies were on hand
while a large delegation walked the
highway. Certainly we had a good
singing.
ATHENS 'CENTER' COMMISSION
ED
Washington.—The Navy sched
uled for Thursday commissioning of
the pre-flight training center at the
University of Georgia in Athens.
The school is the third of four
to be put into operation. While
the commissioning at Athens was
scheduled Thursday, the classes will
not start.until June 11.
The center, with a cacapity for
2,000 students, will turn out approxi
mately 30,000 prospective pilots an
nually, the Navy said.
One writer says before you grum
ble because a vacation trip is out of
the question this summer “let us all
rememjaer the millions who never
have enough to eat, much less go
on vacations. And the uncounted
thousands to whom war has meant
the supreme sacrifices, not a petty
loss such as we have been discuss
ing.” A mighty good suggestion.
prices will be continued in effect,
unless there is a substantial in
crease in the price of cans.
The canning terms will be the
same as last year: each person is
to furnish their own wood and salt,
and do most of their work. The
only cost will be the retail price of
the cans. If a person wishes to
furnish his or her own cans, they
may do so, and can for the cost of
one-half cent per can. Come early
on canning days.
