A conductor and composed of note, the popular maestro has kept} his! public because he constantly | plays those selections the public actually desires to hear.

A. Parrish on Tuesday even- in, January 28. Guests for the evening were Dr. O. E. Rice, a retired minister of Daytona Beach, and Dr. Henry W. Blackburn of Miami. Dr. Blackburn is the district superin- tendent for the Methodist churches in this area. Dr. Rice has had many years building of churches. He told us not to go in debt for an elaborate building that will be too large for our present needs, but to lay plans for the future and build our church and Sunday school rooms in units. The plans for the project will show the different units and what the whole will look like when it is completed. Dr. Rice advised to go ahead with the building program as soon as our plans are complete, which will probably be the early part of the summer. At that time we will start with | the amount of money. we have} on hand and build what it will pay for. We feel that the build- | ing will progress rapidly when we show that it is really started. A small cut will be made of the plans so that our citizens can see what they will have for their efforts. All who attended the meeting feel that we will work doubly hard for this very worthy project. “Dimes” Chairman Lauds Schools Here; i 1 \ roe county chairman of the the most glowing event that has | happened in the 1947 drive is the | unexpected avalanche of returns from the children of the public and parochial schools of Key West. “This year,” said Mrs, Harvey, a really thought, being a mother myself, that it was a little too much burden on the children to, Polonaise, DeBussy’s Clair de Lune, and Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue yess gy een Tickets for Rubinoff’s concert are on sale at the Key West Li- barray every afternoon from two until six o'clock.
