JUSTIN SANDRIDGE RECITAL, piesents Justin Sandridge, the cele brated pianist, with the great Vir ginia Union University choir of one hundred voices, Wednesday evening. February 5th, at Fifth Street Bap tist Church. Justin Sandridge is a truly grea+ artist. To adequately describe the perfection of his playing is an al most unsurmountable task. That he wil be awarded a place among the ■finest pianists of all time is the opinion of critics who have heard him. , ■ ,-?andri ge. an American produ :. was born in Boston and received all his musical training there under mas ter instructors. He made his debut two seasons ago as guest soloist with the gr..:t Bi-'.on Philharmonic Or cherfra 0f 100 men before an audi ence of 8,u00. Mr. Sandridge opened his 1929-30 l->ur in Washington, D. C. He , layed in the great music halls of Pittsburgh and other large cities to reat audiences—prolonged applause characterized his every appearance. The Union University choir of one hundred voices—the heart-searching beauty of their singing and the meas ured emotion with which it is charged fulfills the perfect aim of art. which is to excite and then to satisiy. Infinitely touching is the music from this great body of voices, which seems to come out from eter nity rather than from human throats. Its rhythm, its exaltation, its sen suous loveliness thrill the ear. NEW VINE BAPTIST CHURCH Charles City County, Va. Rev. W. L. Tuck, Pastor At 12 o’clock noon Sunday, Pastor Tuck biought to his people a won derful message from Matthews 28th chapter, 19th verse, “Go ye there fore and teach all nations.” Pas tor Tuck always brings to his peo ple good, strong messages.

This i? a question that has been asked by thousands of those who follow this kind of sport for numbers of years. Well folks use your own judgment. That is all I can say about it. But the decisions that have been rendered in some bouts almost tell you that something was wrong. 1 prefer not giving my opinion on this question, but I am going to tell you about what happened in one of thev bouts fought by the -well-known Jack Dempsey, one of the greatest fighters of all times, before he became champion. Some of you may be able to recall this particular bout, but there are thousands who do not re member it. All who know Jack Dempsey, and I doubt that very few people in this country are unfamiliar with his tac tics, know that he has always been against “flopping,” but this particu always practiced what they preached lar bout proves to me that people have not always practiced what they preached. This bout was fought way back in the days before Dempsey became champion, ‘‘The Dempsey-Flynn bout.” Flynn had as much business beating Dempsey as Old Jim Jef feris had beating Jackson, and when Dempsey was K. 0. in the first round the fans went mad, Dempsey was supposed to have received $500 and as usual the gamblers cleaned up. This bout made such an impression on Dempsey’s prestige that he started to quit the game. FULTON NOTES The services at the Mt.
