THE ALL-DAY SINGING AT SPRING PLACE Largely Attended and Great Success. One of the most enjoyable oc¬ casions—and so pronounced by the immense crowd present, was the all-day singing lastSunday, at which, Spring Place, with her accustomed hospitality acquited herself proudly as hostess. Much interest was shown by all the people and we believe the impetus given the cause of mu¬ sic will create an interest in, and for singing that will not soon abate. Here’s success to all who came and so willingly made the day a grand and glorious pleasure. Following is a partial list of the program. Opening Song. All Hail The Power of Jesus Name. Prayer by II. H. Black. Three songs lead by Prof. Kerr, Miss Maliuda Shields Organist Speech by Ool. H. H. Ander¬ son, which was pronounced a fine effort and enjoyed by all. Three songs lead bv Prof. Vaughn.

Three 3 ongs lead by Prof. War mack, after which Editor Hull Kerr in a nice little talk intro, duced Old Brother Parker, one of the old-time singers, who was leading singings when our moth eis and fathers were sweethearts. Prof Prof. I Parker’s arker s sinking sinking was was very very The event of the day was the speech of the Hon. Harold Will ingjiam, of Chatsworth, introduc ed as “Everybody’s” sweetheart, as indeed he is, and we hope a soon renurn of the time when we can hear him again. Rev. M. W. Shields made an excellent speech on music a id it’s Dowers, and the training of the voice. His speech was a_ treat. After a recess of ten minut< several excellent numbers w sung by Prof. Sh elds and othe after which Prof. Weaver lead three songs. Prof. Wanna then lead the three closing son;.
