for the sole purpose of preserving
the unwritten spirituals, will give an1
entertainment in the School Auditorium,

Church.
The negro of today has no use for
the unpiinted hymns and the did religious
songs o<f the plantation negro
are fast becoming unknown or forKotten
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 b? preserved and are
doing their best t<!) do so.
Most of the memfberB of the Society
were born and raised 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 in religion, is often
amusing, but they approach their
subject sincerely with only respect
and love for the oldtime negro as
they know hitu. They try to reproduce
his voice, pronunciation and actions
while singing, but never to
ridicule him.
The program is most interesting?

AVIATION
Recent accident at Columbia has had its effect
upon flying locally. That accident was due to the
presence of high tension wires near the landing field,
! and has no bearing on conditions here.
We will fly from the Savage held bordering
Springdale on Saturday and Sunday. Let us show
I you that aviation is safe and that Camden needs an
airport to be placed on the air map of the South.
