Sunday was an all day rainy season and it seemed unfortunate for so many good things were in store at the various churches. But in cases like this we must agree to the saying that "Whatever is, is right." Those who ventured were fully re paid for the bravery they manifest ed. Sunday evening the three Mc Cravy brothers, Frank, Jack and James gave a most delightful and up lifting sacred conceit. Mr. Frank Mc Cravy is a singer of the Baptist Home Board Evangelistic Service and his brother Jack, assisted with the bass. James McCravy is a senior at Fur man, singing and also giving some beautiful solo and obligato music on the violin, being a violinist of dis nnction. The congregation was en tranced for an hour or more by the rios, duets and solos and violin mu ?e by these three musicians and by ;he beautiful voice of Miss Miriam Morris who sang in a duet with Mr. Frank McCravy and a solo "0 Dry rhose Tears" with pipe organ accom paniment and violin obligato. Mr. James McCravy was late, ar riving on the 9 o'clock train, but Dr. Lee and the ingenious brothers very successfully kept the congregation waiting by entertaining them with a most edifying talk by the pastor and some congregational singing be fore th?- mcert began. At the close of the concert Mr. J. L. Mims arose and gave expression to the appreciation of the people for the visitors' presence and benefit derived from the occasion. It is one of the paradoxes of the world that in the place where applause can be most worthily bestowed it is often with held. MRS. J. L. MIMS. Honor Roll Edgefield High School. For Fourth Month.
