Beautiful Concert
By Jr. College Choir

Those persons who were present to
enjoy the sacred concert presented by
Holmes Junior College at the Baptist
church Sunday evening were indeed for
tunate. A splendidly trained chorus
rendered a number of beautiful anthems
and spirituals and supported the spec
ial parts which were we'll done by in
dividual soloists.
Outstanding numbers on the program
were the lyric soprano solo, "How Beau
tiful are Thy Dwellings" which was
faultlessly rendered by Miss Evelyn
Cannon. Wilbur Pollock, tenor. sang a
lovely arrangement of the Lords Pray
er, while Harry Hoods rich baritone
was unusually impressive and pleasing
in "The Holy City" Mention is also
made of the flute solo which was given
by Thomas Wasson and of the violin
duet by Misses Rosa Ford and Annette
Nc Daniel. Holmes Junior College is
certainly we'll equipped with music
faculty and the program Sunday even
ing was one which merited the highest
praise.
