The North Pacolet Interdenomina tional Sunday School Convention will meet at Elb^thel the 24th of next month at which time it. Is Proposed to organize a singing convention If the wav be clear. This was suggest ed at the last convention and we see no reason why it should not be a success. Our brethren in the north ern part of Cherokee county organle- ed one several years ago and from what we learn it has been a decided success and there is no reason why it should not succeed here. W*9 can, nn doubt, enlis the interest of Prof. A. G. Davis, Yhose heart Is in the work and witu such a man at ita head It will succeed. Its a fact be yond dispute that there is not • country church where the singing Is not so good is it should be. and this move wo hof * will tend to better this state of affa s and b-- a great bless ing to the •omraunitles that enter heartily into th« work of improving their singing. No church can sue coed in its work that does not lav specF''’ emphasis on the singing. A poor preacher with good music will do t>etter work than a eood one with poor music. W’e hope our noople will think over this matter and by the time the weather gets favorable will be ready to organize a singing convention in this section where bet ter church music is more or leas needed. When speak of a singing school or convention we don’t mean a court- in« r school, but one intended to raise the stadard of intelligence, morality and usefulness among the young neonle who attend.
