school auditorium Monday afternoon
at four o'clock. All ward managers
are asked to be ready with their
monthly reports.
Unique Entertainment Offered
The Charleston Spiritual Society,
composed of representative families
of Charleston who have organized for
the sole purpose of preserving the
unwritten spirituals, will give an entertainment
in the school auditorium
Saturday evening, March 12, at 8:30
o'clock, for the benefit of the Parish
House Fund of Grace Episcopal
church.
The negro of today has no use for
the unprinted hymns and the old religious
songs of the plantation negro
that are fast becoming unknown or
forgotten by his own race. This
society felt that this very unique
religious expression in song by a
primitive race, handed down by word
of mouth alone, should be preserved
and are doing their best to do so.
Most of the members of the society
were born and reared on the low
country plantations around Charleston
and know the negro character and
the spirituals at first hand. They
know his way of expressing himself,
even m religion, is oftfeir amusing,
but they approach their subject sincerely
with only respect and love for
the old-time negro as they know him.
They try to reproduce his voice, pronunciation
and actions while singing,
but never to ridicule him. Admission
charges will bo $1.50 and $1.00.
Tickets on sale at the Wornan's Exchange
and at the auditorium door
Saturday night.

The social given at the Camden

indeed a delightful affair. A special
program was arranged for the occasion
by Mrs. W. II. AJlred. Mrs.
F. N. McOorkle was in charge of the
music, assisted by Miss Nell Goodale
and Mrs. Paul Lewis. Very interesting
and inspiring talks were made by
Mrs. George Creed, Mrs. C. F. McCoy
and Mrs. R. T. Goodale on
"Woman's Work for Missions." A
playlet, "How Aunt Polly Joined the
Missionary Society," was presented
by all present. Although u little
humorous, it was also instructive and
brought forcibly to the hearts of the
indifferent and un-enlisted women the
importance of why they should join
the Missionary Society. An earnest
appeal was then made by Mrs. All|
red that all members of the Woman's
Missionary Society that they join and
help carry on the work of. mission*.
Mrs. A. B. Ward, in her charming
way added a few well chosen words
?
to this appeal. Quite a number responded.
Then came the social hoar
and the ladies were invited into the
new dining hall where n delicious*
salad course had been prepared by
Mrs. DuPont Hancock and her efficient
committee.
