Glee Club’s Concert
The Georgia University Glee club
was greeted by a capacity house last
night when they appeared in concert
for the first time in Americus. A
minstrel performance was the open
ing feature, which proved very popu
lar with the audience and was follow
ed by the club’s quartette in a series
of popular song hits. The guitar
playing was one of the enjoyable num
bers by several of the performers and
the concert was altogether a source of
great pleasure to the large and appre
ciative audience.

Red Cross Appeal.
Attention is again called to the ap
peal for cost off clothing by the local
Red Cross chapter for the people of the
liberated countries who are in such
dire need. The clothing must be col
lected by March 31st, and as the time
is so short, those who will donate are
asked to phone 220, as early as possi
ble. It must also be borne in mind
that 120 refugee garments now on hand
cannot be completed without morje
help than the chapter has at present.
It is inconceivable that these appeals
will not meet with a prompt response
in Americus, where the Red Cross has
done such splendid work during the
last year.

known how long he will be able to
spend at home with his father. His
father has recovered rapidly since
being stricken.
