The Confessions Of A Ham Singer BT CHAKLES JACOB HABKIS (Continued from laft we^) The time had come to leave this beautiful city which had held me as one in a trance. The exquisite shrubbery, its healing watery, curling flowers, moun- #^»STRAiGNTEII USE ONLY nu wiwi 32 CONSECtlTIVE TEAM Fir Stratgltmlaf Slorttr Itraiii i If n 4mm I taineous grandeur had kept me enthralled for many months. I shall never forget it-she gave me the thrill of a lifetime. To sing a few times like I desired was worth the time, the money, the effort. The friends made, and the wholesome times com pensate for this trip to the Rockies. . The trip was worth it, if only to meet and know little Marie Bryant. She is an unself- [ ish soul, loved by all. Marie is | a tireless worker in both club and church work. She has a good soprano voice and I shared with her my knowledge of vo- calism. At the end of October, 1926, I began my homeward trek. I did a recital in Pueblo. Un^ wisely, I left my energy in the home of the accompanist for the evening by singing too much during the rehearsal. 1 presume BALDWIN PIANOS AND ELECTRONIC ORGANS We Sell For Cash Or On Terms To Snit Ciutomer Maus'Hutto Piano Co. “The House Of Baldwin” 116 N.

Had a good time with the audience in all of these selections. They gave me quite an applause for my piano renditions. My next recital of piano and vocal music was at a church of eighteen hundred members in Oklahoma City. Don’t get the idea I had a large audience there. There was one represen tative from each hundred-only eighteen persons were present. I made up my mind to do just as good a job as if all the mem bers were there. Mrs. Groce, a leading musi cian and business woman of the city, played accompaniments for me. I was rested sufficiently to give a better account of my self than on some previous en gagements. My tones came easi ly and freely. This meai;it a tip top performance. Perhaps you ar« saying, “What conceit!" This is not conceit, but was an occasion for general rejoicing, when hey came so few and far between. Next, I slipped over to Boley, a Negro town, and did a recital in thei# high school auditorium The Boleyites came into nation al notice since my visit there. Here, Negro officials of their only bank defied “Pretty Boy” Floyd and hia gang when they attempted a hold-up. Two of Floyd’s men and the bank presi dent, Mr. McCormick, were killed. Then, Boiey is the home of the former Marva Louis, one time wife of the celebrated heavyweight boxing champ. I went back to Oklahoma City and did another recital. This time I got a better; that Is, a larger house than at my first appearanae there. Sadie Davis, a very cultured young woman from my native Augusta, played my accompaniments. We got along alright except in one song in which she played “B" natural against my “B” flat. This clash almost unbalanced me, but tried hard to keep a straight face. The next day, I left this state where “black gold” ran through some of the streets., I got into Little Rock, Ark,, somewhat fatigued, but got my self together after a few hours of rest. Mrs. Bass, an accom plished musician, had a rehear sal'so that I could take it easy, i ran over to Philander Smith College to see my friend Willis Macklin. I was his accompanist in a series of rwitals just two summers previoiisly. I had met Macklin atxiut .six years before in Mississippi where the mosquitoes survive the winter. Willis had a good voice; hence, we ' found each other’s company mutually plea sant. Some of the physical ef fects of Colorado had -begun to leave me, yet I faltered not, but spent t^ore and more time in the great conditioner; the bed. We had an elegant audience.

What I lacked in vocalism, I made up in pianism. I gave recitals in Pirie Bluff and Min ton before leaving the state. Dr. Glass whom I had known for years, was then working In Arkansas. He warned me against putting a local soprano on my program. He said she had a towering vioce and would show me up. I felt like asking him if she could sing up and down cataracts. If not, I would have np fear. (to be continued) YanceyvilleClub Holds Revue YANCEYVILLE The Annual County^ 4-H Dress Revue was held recently in the Neil Alexander Bailey Agricultural Building.
