SING Al GKAAT REVIVAL

Atlanta, ga, Nov. 7.-People of At

spring season OF grand opera, but in
the music OF the Billy Sunday choir
they are hearing something equally as
tine and inspiring lin its particular
class, as any of the arias and orches-
trail symphonies of the Metropolitan.
Fifteen hundred men and women in
the Billy Sunday choir have been
trained to sing in perfect harmony.
They learned the Billy Sunday songs
in advance Of the cvangelist's arrival.
And now in the hands OF Homer
Rodeheaver, the famous choir leader
OF the Billy Sunday organization, they
are giving the great audience truly
marvellous performance at every SER
vice
An echo choir is one of Rodeheav-
er's faVorite tricks. He picks out two
or three hundred of the best singers
in the choir, stations them at the back
of the great tabernacle, and they al
ternate with the principal choir. The
latter will sing two lines of a tuneful
revival song and the echo choir will
respond with the next two lines, Rod
eheaver standing on the pulpit with
his uplifted trombone as baton to
direct the singers.
Floating back across the bast sea
of faces toward the pulpit, the song
of the echo choir produces a musical
effect indescribably beautiful.
