All Day Singing at Liberty Hill, tmm » The 4th of July was celebrated by the 28th annual all day singing at Liberty Hill church. Next year it goes back to Mt. Carmel church There were two or three minis ters of the Gospel present and they would frequently exclaim aloud “Praise the Lord,” “Amen,” and such expressions. Men and women shed tears of joy and con viction frequently as the gospel in song was being sung. There were twenty-five or thir ty leaders of music and a few composers of music present. Those who were presmt cannot hope to hear better singing often in this world. May it be said in behalf of the ladies present that we never saw so many of them sing and continue to sing all day as they did. The spiritual tone of the day was Christ-like and truly inspiring to higher things. Then when we speak of the din ner part of the program we can not speak in terms too flattering. There was a large crowd present and many people said that there was enough dinner left to feed amply the same crowd for supper. I wish to call attention to the age of some who led seemingly perfect lessons. Miss Gladys Starr, 8 or 9 years old, of County Line Church, who sang some of the very hardest music. We hope to hear from Miss Gladys again Also we wish to call your attention to the lesson led by Master Clark Landers, of Atlanta, just 13 years of age, his organist was Weyman Barnett, 14 or 15 years of age. The little singer was quite at home and had a splendid voice. He will doubtless be known in the musical world later. It is known all over the county and further that Weyman Barnett can sing or play anything you put before him. We must close though and I shall ask you to notice the names of those on the program which will give you an idea of the ciass of singers that were present. About half of the leaders did not get on the floor at all.
