A MUSICAL TREAT
Concert by NJ. E. Church Choir Pleases
Large Audience

Emmett's reputation as musical
center was showed up several notches
by the concert given by the Methodist
church choir Thursday evening of last
week under the direction of Walter
Nusbaum. The program of II numbers
was of a classical nature and was
rendered in an artistic manner. In
comparison with concerts given by
companies in the lecture course in
recent years, it suffered not one whit.
The only disappointment was that,
owing to a severe cold, Mr.. Nusbaum
was unable to take his part on the
program. The vocal solo by Mrs.
Newcomer and the violin solo by
Max Gunther were especially fine, and
were a treat long to be remembered.
Readings by Miss Anna Campbell and
Mrs. VIII Womack were admirably
rendered and of pleasing character.
The program follows:
The Vikings, by Chorus.
Male quartet-"Daddy," by Wo-
mack Shropshire Nusbaum-Gamage.
Nursey Rhymes and Vogel Waltz,by
Chorus.
Reading-"The Attorney for the
Defense, by Anna Campbell.
Vocal Solo-"Swallows", by Mrs.
Ray Newcomer.
Charity, by Ladies Chorus.
Violin Solo-Mazurke Concert, by
Max Gunther
The Miller's Wooing, by Chorus.
Reading-'The Cremation of Sam
MCGEE" by Mrs. Will Womack.
There Is Friend in the Home
land and The Heavens Are Telling,
Creation" by Chorus.
Personnel of Chorus
Sopranos-Ella Breshears, Mrs. Ray
Newcomer, Meta Edwards, Genevieve
Edwards, Mrs. E. w. Pattison, Mary
Carnage, Mrs. R. B. Shaw, Pearl
Kelley, Mrs. Ora Bever, Mrs. Max
Gunther.
Altos-Mrs Roy Keithley, Mr.. Ed
Skinner, Beulah Kinzer, Mrs. G. z.
Mains, Josephine Wayman.

Many chickens and turkeys persisted
by taking refuge under the burning
granary, the wheat fell upon their
remains and was left undisturbed for
many weeks. Final investigation
proved it to be moldy and soured, and
perhaps poisoned by the putrefying
poultry flesh; hence the so called
ptomaine poisoning.

CLEMSON WINTER EGG MASH
Mixture of Cottonseed Meal and Grain
Will Produce Eggs at Com
paratively Low Cost.

1t is more than a year since the
Clemson egg mash was given to South
Carolina farmers by the poultry hus-
bandman of Clemson college. In that
time it has increased steadily in popu-
larity and those who have used it
have reported the most satisfactory
results. With the approach of winter
farmers are reminded that it requires
plenty of good feed to make hens lay
in cold weather. 1t is believed that
they can find nothing better for this
purpose than the Clemson egg mash
and the formula for the mash is again
brought to their attention.
