One was that if you killed a snake and hung it on a limb, it would make it rain. During droughts we were careful to com ply with this. And, of course, it always eventually rained. It al ways had. Snake or no snake. But that made no difference to us. We clung to our belief.,^ Another one was, we believed if a turtle, or cooter as we call ed 'em, bit you it wouldn’t turn loose until it thundered. I think they told us that to make us care ful in messing with these crea tures, as we explored from the source to the mouth of our creek. That thing was indelibly impressed on my mind. And I had a number of nightmares^ thinking one of those things had me and the skies were clear. In fact we were always doubly careful around them during long dry spells. But on out during the thunderstorms of summer, we al ways felt a bit more secure. In fact, we played with them when it was thundering, knowing a bite couldn’t last long. As kids we wouldn’t think of turning around and going back to get something we forgot with out making a cross there in the with our big toe and spit- on it.

Will Present Program At Aveleigh Sunday Morning Presbyterian College’s robed choir will present a musical inter* pretation of “The Story of Jesus'* when it appears at Aveleigh Pres byterian church on Sunday morn- inng. Conductor Edouard Patte, in preparing his program of sacred music and worship, has given special emphasis to chorals of the Rreformation Period, Russian music and spirituals. Once more this season, as in the past four years, Dr. Patte has blended 32 voices into a singing organization which is rated onei of the foremost college groups in the South. It receives highest recognition through interpretation of classical sacred selections. The Presbyterian robed choir makes two tours annually which extend over five states. It has traveled some 20,000 miles in the past four seasons and participated 1 in numerous radio broadcasts, in cluding “Great Glee Clubs of America” over national hookup last summer. Among the most significant pieces rendered by the choir in developing its theme “The Story of Jesus” are: A delicate and joyful “Nativity Song” by Buxtehude, the famous Scandinavian composer and or ganist and teacher of Bach, who once walked 200 miles to hear his teacher play. “Gloria Patti” by Palestrina; the 16th Century Roman choir master, rendered in Latin by the PC singers. They also interpret Palestrina’s “Bone Jesu,” a piecel of pure devotion and adoration aiming at the beauty of pure sound, with dissonances thorough ly prepared. “When Jesus Wept,” a seldom heard carati by William Billings (1746-1800) the first native Amer ican to make a profession of com posing music. Several little known spirituals add a simple, moving touch to the program and the service concludes with a vig orous anthem by Josef Haydn.
