cuss the comings and goigs among
the Avenue brothers. Right away the
good conversation swung around to
talk about the JACKSON COLLEGE
CHOIR, and how good them chillun
can sing. One brother spoke right up
and said he believes its as good as
anv choir anywhere and as far as he
is concerned these people around here
don't need to send to Alabama or no
where else to get no choir to give no
concert for him as long as they got
that choir out to JACKSON COL
LEGE and them chillun keep on sing
ing like that. He said that there was
Just one thing he couldn't understand,
and That was why didn't they take
that choir and go on a tour or some
thing like these other schools around
here that keep sending singers thru
here all the time This good brother
went on to say that he didn't see why
in the world them people out there
didn't give a choir concert cause
everybodys talking bout how well
they can sing and everybody wants to
hear them and it shore would be fine
if they got together and rugged up
concert for one of these fine Sunday
evenings before school closes so some
a chance to hear them would be able
Of them people what amt never had
to come out. Now we don't profess
to be no music critic. but we do
know that the cappella singing of
the choir is the best we've heard
