“Joyful Greeting.”

By Editor

This is the title of a new Sabbath-school song book, lately issued by the J. E. White Publishing Co. It contains a good supply of new pieces, as well as many old favorites. Several features are introduced which never before appeared in any Sabbath-school song book.

Many of the best word and song writers in this country have contributed to the work, among whom we mention the names of L. O. Emerson, W. A. Ogden, J. H. Tenny, H. P. Danks, A. J. Showalter, F. E. Belden, and Frank M. Davis.

The material for this book has passed through the most rigid criticism, the great aim of which has been to accept useful pieces only. The pieces are pronounced by all easy and attractive.

The following is from the pen of Elder D. M. Canright, vice-president of the General Sabbath-school Association:

“I am much pleased with the new song book by J. E. White entitled ‘Joyful Greeting.’ I think it is just what we need in our Sabbath-schools, and that it will produce a great improvement in the singing among the children. They need songs adapted to them which are simple and easy, and still full of life and spirit, and this is what we find in ‘Joyful Greeting.’ Hope it may have a wide circulation.”

“Joyful Greeting” contains 216 pages. For prices, etc., see advertisement on this page.
