LANGSTON, OKLA.

One of the most conspicuous fea-
lures at L. U. is the rapid growth in
the Music Department. Ten pianos,
four music teachers, one hundred fifty
pupils show the approach of Langston
University by leaps and bounds to-
wards a real conservatory.
A most wonderful program was
rendered by two "wee tots" 5 years
of age, daughters of Prof. Samuel
Sadler and President j. NJ. Marques
at 4 o'clock April 18th. Thirty in.
strumental numbers with numerous
songs and exercises in voice culture
we're perfectly rendered by these
"Sunbonnet Babies" of five. This
shows what heredity, environment and
training will do for our babies.
Madames c. B. Sheler of New Eng
land Conservatory of Music and B.
B. Douglass of Minnesota C~onserva-
tory deserve credit and praise as val
liable assets to Langston University
Conservatory.

Services were well attended Sunday
at Bethel A. NJ. E. Church. At the
morning service DR.. T. jeff Ross, pas
tor, preached from James lib; sub
ject, Harvest Time" our hearts
burned as he told us of the Angel of
God gathering the saved. Sunday
night subject "Carefulness in Serv-
ice" a great crowd sat spellbound as
this messenger delivered Gods word,
he is an earnest, untiring officer in
Gods army. Services at the Vine and
Broadway Baptist Church was well
attended. Rev. Underwood filed the
pulpit morning and evening Bethel
A. NJ. E. Church was the scene of a
record-breaking crowd last Friday e
ening, the occasion being the visit OF
Madame Mary B. Tolbert, national
president of the National Association
of Colored Women's Clubs. Madame
Tolbert spoke under the auspices OF
the Macon Women's Club, the church
was beautifully decorated in purple
and white, the club %colors; the music
was furnished by the Lone Star Quar-
tet. Madame Tolbert is in a class by
herself as an orator of exceptions

stop for a long look for the surging
crowds behind pushed us on.
After an hours climb we came in
sight of the great cross that is plant
ed on the summit of the mountain. At
the foot of the cross could be seen in
the early dawn the large choir of
singers from the different churches of
the city. All arrangements seem to
be under a community service COM
mittee though l was told that the pill
grimage started under the Catholic
Mission. Now, all denominations have
a part in it.
Just as the first ray Of sunlight ap-
peared in the East the strains of a
cornet solo, "The Holy City," hushed
the waiting, and surging crowds on
that mountain, its silence. Then led
by the large choir, all sang the well
known hymn, "In the Cross of Christ
l Glory" This was followed by the
Lords Prayer and responsive readings
from the scriptures on a little pro-
gram that had been handed to us
at the foot of the mountain. One
verse especially seemed appropriate,
"And very early in the morning the
first day of the week, they came into
the sepulchre at the rising of the SUM-"
1t is strange how plainly the readings,
prayers and solos could be heard in
that clear mountain air, and the men,
DRY of that mountain sunrise service
with its thousands of worshippers and
over all the cross, lighted up the rays
of the rising sun make a picture that
is well worth the long climb.
