Three Laurens Rotarians, Dorrough
Ferguson, Rice Nichols, and Ernest
Easterby, gave conclusive proof that
versatility is a quality not unknown
in the neighboring city. Called on un
expectedly by the song leader of the
local club to perform, they responded
with ‘“The Little Gray Home in the
West” in a manner that left nothing _
to be desired in point of volume and :rr
enthusiasm. After spontaneous ap- 1
plause that actually drowned out the i j=z
latter part of their rendition had sub- ! =
sided, the visitors explained that they ! ~
were really not accustomed to attemp- ' ^
ting such feats but that their apparent ! ^
success encouraged them in the belief ““
that it would be worthwhile’to practice
together and return again with a real
program.
Other visitors were Rotarian Sidney
