Transcript

Theres music in there, Pending the morning Down our way, Per your invited to spend the pleasant evening and visiting an old-fashioned singing. The folks like music so much, in fact, that a few friends got together and formed a singing group.

So this group's always on hand at ice cream socials and picnics and such, to furnish the entertainment. Eli Jenkins, a town grilcer's leader of the group, he spends a whole lot of his time seeing that they have the songs practiced up proper. To him being singing masters of serious responsibility, he isn't quite satisfied with the way the group's been

sounding recently. So he's called a special meeting to do extra practicing. And now folks I ain't aiming to be critical and I ain't no we ain't no professional group but tarnation at last Tuesday's Grange meeting I hear a couple of sour notes that had no business being there.

I hate to point this out Eli, but sounded to me like one of them sour notes belong to you. Oh alright, standing. I learned 33 years ago. Never to argue with you. I'll admit that maybe one of them was mine.

That still don't account for the other one. Let's do a number right now and see if we can't correct some of these faults. Shall we lie? Yes, you might as well. Everybody got his music.

Yes, you. Now watch my hand, folks. Now keep the time. Oh, is that what you're doing? Well, little long as good she was shooing flies. Everybody. Tom, Mr. Jenkins. Well, it sounded pretty good, I guess.

I may as well break down now and tell you my surprise. I wanted you to get practiced up real good because I just got word that the Crowell County Music Appreciation Society is going to pay us a visit.
