Take
Leading Part In
Nations Festival

A joint chorus composed of the
choirs of the churches of st. Paul
furnished the background for the
dances presented by the members
of the Modern Dance Center, under
the direction of Gertrude L. Lip
pincott, Minneapolis, on the Friday
evening program of the Festival
of Nations at the St. Paul Audi
forum Arena.
The group portrayed in dance the
history of the Negro race in three
parts-their exodus from their ma
tive land to America; their life in
the new world, which consisted of
much work, much religion, and
very little play; and last, their
part in the shaping of the democ-
racy for which America is noted.
Choreography for the dances was
done by Bernice Brown, assisted
by Gertrude Lippincott. The script
written by Laura M. Jeffry was
read by Corrine Powell and the
chorus was under the direction of
John M. Whitaker, music director
of the Halle @. Brown House.
The dancers were Beryl Cockrell,
Rosamond Collier, Dolores Carter,
Dorothy Munson, Ada Patterson,
Ada Collier and Eunice Brown.
In the market square was the
booth where Southern fried chicken
and all the trimmings was served
and among the homelands exhibits
was the work of the artists, Cor
don Parks, photographer, and
Henry Bannarn, painter and sculp.
tor, and the trash craft of Idelle
Patton.

Ware Is Energetic
Rev. Mr.. Ware is a talented and
energetic minister, who is not only
a forceful speaker but has a rich
baritone voice. His ability in this
respect has contributed greatly
toward the progress of the church
since he was called to st. Paul.
Recently, at the Northwest Re-
gional Meeting of the National
Baptist Convention, Inc, Des
Moines, Iowa, Rev. Ware, accom-
panied by his charming wife, cleo
trified the meeting with his singing
of otis a Highway to Heaven"
Many in attendance regarded it as
one of the high spots of the meet
ing.
Rev. Ware is a member of the
Sunday School Publishing Board,
Nashville, Tennessee; a member of
the Social Commission of the Ma
tional Baptist Convention, Inc. In
addition to the many responsible
ties of his ministry, he has given
considerable time to work with
civic organizations.
During the past year, Pilgrim
Baptist Church under Rev. Wares
direction has raised ten thousand
dollars. The Indebtedness on the
church is being reduced rapidly and
the financial standing has never
been better in the church's history.
Mrs. S. E. Ware, nationally
known figure and outstanding
musician, has been an invaluable
aid in the carrying out of this re-
markable program. Rev. and Mrs,
Ware comprise an unusual COM
bination whose influence is felt not
only in st. Paul but throughout
the Northwest.
