MRS. ROOF'S PUPILS DELIGHT I
LARGE LEXINGTON AUDIENCE
The music pupils of Mrs. E . B.
Roof gave their spring recital in the'
High School auditorium Thursdaynight
of last week, to one of the lar-'
gest crowds ever attending a recital;
in Lexington. The program was var|
ied and interesting throughout, as
was evidenced by the frequent applause
given the performers. Each J
one performing their part creditably;
to themselves and teacher, demonstra
ting- thoroughly the excellent training
received during the session. Mrs.
Roof has been a teacher in the mu-|
sic department of the Lexington
school for 20 years or more, and du-l
ring that time has produced some
finished musicians, many of whom
took their first lessons from her
when they were tiny tots. The pro-j
gram Thursday night consisted of 25;
numbers ranging from the simplest
beginners number rendered by little
Miss Sara Hampton Kaminer, 7 years
of age, to the most difficult classic
by Miss Sara Black, a June gradu-;
ate. Following the recital the Four
o'clock Club served refreshments,
completing a most entertaining and!
instructive evening.

I
Witfii every business house in Lexington
closed, and amid a steady
downpour cf rain, the people of Lexi
net on pacbed the county court hou^e
to its fail capacity on Friday afternoon,
to hour addresses by the Rev.
R. R. Murchiscn and Mrs, Annie I.
Rembert. The occasion was the bic:
patriotic rally called by Dr. D. M.
Crossor. of Lcesvii.'e, chairman of the
T.a?-CifT4-/\n C (, frcinpil r\? TOp
fense. It was an occasion for the
people to demonstrate, in an open
and public way, their patriotism as ..
well as their allegiance to. and faith
in, the American flag. And every
member of the large and enthusiastic
audience entered into the meeting
with whole-hearted fervor, and
eagerly did they grasp every word
that fell from the speakers' lips. It
was an audience r-ompo-ed of men,
women and children?every one of
whom are enlisted in the great work;
of winning the war, and helping to
give liberty and freedom to all man-j
kind.
The meeting was opened with a
song, "In the Sweet Bye and Bye,"'
led by Sheriff Sim J. Miller, follow-j
ed by the invocation by the Rev. W. j
H. Riser, pastor of Saint Stephen's'
Lutheran church. {
Dr. Crosson, in intro'ducing Dr. Mur;
chison, thanked the people for their
attendance, which was but another
evidence of Lexington's genuine pat-1
riotism. Mr. Murchison stated, at(
the outset, that it is not necessary i
for one to go across the water, right;
I in the midst of the fray, to realize:
the horrors that are daily and hourly j
: being perpetrated by the enemy. Hei
declared that the great majority of;
the people do not yet realize its ser-1
to trust the military leaders and|
[ Woodrow Wilson in this great crisis, j
| Our armies have been raised with j
great rapidity, he said, but nothing;
compared to the need of the hour.
; Every leading man realizes now that
| the United States was a little ^oo slow?
I in declaring war; but the fact that we
j had always been a peace-loving peoj
pie, was largely responsible for this.
! It is an enormous undertaking, and!
| the people of this country are willing
j iousness. The speaker declared that!
j the ill feeling occassioned by the War,
i Between the Sections had not yet fi- j
j nally passed away, and this, too; had:
I hppn a draw-back, to a certain extent j
! in getting the people aroused to a
j full sense of duty.Happily, however,
j the time has arrived when every Ai
merican no longer knows no North, i
I no South no East or no West, but
i that Americans everywhere are lin-;
j '
i ing up with the one great purpose of
. making the peoples of the world free
| Dr. Murchison scored the manner
j in which pacifists are spreading Ger-j
I man propaganda throughout the
i country. The fact that we should I
or should not have entered the war. j
I said he," is as ancient as Revolutioni
ary history," and ail must act and
act wisely. Men are needed faster
! than we can get them across the wa!
ter, and these men must ,be cared
for. They are making the supreme
sacrifice, and it is the duty of those!
who are left behind to see to it that
they are made as comfortable as possible.
In this connection, the speak
er urged the members of the Lexingj
ton Red Cross to put every ounce of I
! energy into their work; that wounded
soldiers in the trenches are praying
for the bandages to hold out until
their wounds are dressed.
The speaker closed with an elo!
quent and touching appeal for the,
: thousands of little innocent childrenin
the war-ridden sections who are
i without food raiment. His was a
masterly presentation of the needs
- - * 1
of the hour, and he sat down amia
much applause.
The next and last speaker was Mrs!
i Annie I Rembert, of Columbia, a wop
man who has given most of her timej
and her talents for many years in the
?reat work of stamping out tuberculosis
in South Carolina. Mrs. Rembert
stated, however, that this was .
not her mission on this oceassion; <
that she was here for the purpose of
arousing the people of Lexington to <
a cleeror sense of duty at this time?
in this hour of the nation's crisis. I
wish ! could go out on an old time
campaign and meet the people face ,
to u ever./where."she saul, "and
endoavrr to impress upon them the
