Plaino Recital.
An interesting piano recital was
given on last Friday afternoon at the
home of Miss Flora Bennett by her
two pupils, -Ilarlowe Hiix Mahaffey
and Margaret McCravy. Little Miss
Mahaffey played four pretty selections.
The last number, "Jolly Darkies" was
an old plantation song which repre
sented the shuffles of the darkles and
the sound of the banjos. After little
Margaret MeCravy who is only six
years old, 'played two instrumental
numbers, she sang three play-time
songs, playing her own accompani
ment. Just at this time little Miss
Martha Boyd, who is visiting her from
Spartanburg, deliighted those present
with two readings entitled ."' he Little
Bisque Doli" and "John llenry, the
Bachelor."
After the recital of these little folks,
Mliss Hattie Gray, who is just. home
from Columbia Univerlsity, consented

ent. Ever.:.onte was charimed with the
luieal skill of Miss Gray.
