Welcome Address.
Ladies' and Gentlemen OF the Brhzos
County Singing Convention:
II affords me great pleasure to wei.
come you to the annual meeting OF
our Singing Convention. and also to
our community.
Ever since our organization began
Its career We have had a steady prog.
ress In attendance. and have already
accomplished n great deal more than
many OF us ever expected TO In a
longer period OF time.
Our progress has been due 10 the
fact that We have had such indus.
trious workers over the county who
have given their valuable time and
loaned their skilled efforts TO the
cause OF making our organization an
organization OF importance. an or.
ganization OF educated thinkers and
Industrious workers.
Some OF our organizers and helpers
remind me Of the story Of the Irish.
man. lie comes TO America and gets
his first Job as carrying brick up
ladder 10 two very skilled brick
masons. He wrote home and said:
Dear Pat. come over to Amerke and
you need not work. carry the brick
IN the ladder and the other men do
all the work" Some people In our
community are Just the same way.
They go from place 10 place to notify
the public on certain business or
meeting. and then they meet with us
and le, others do all the singing and
are selfish enough 10 say the others
do the work.
unsel'Ishness Is the greatest gift
