My. S.S. class decided on a sunrise breakfast next Sunday Morning. Went to M.E. to a good service except that Rev. Hempstead read his sermon! Heard a Harin Simmons quartet that was exceptional. At 3:30 hear Miss Garrett’s Sextet with Rev. Hempstead in Miss G’s composition “Servant, Master and Lord” It was beautiful – Miss Garrett accompanied on the organ. Started embroidering a blanket for Dit. At Grady’s, Capt. Starr talked to me about Mexico – got me all excited to go again! Heard the Hardin-Simmons chorus at the Baptist Church and enjoyed it.
