Homer A. Rodeheaver

This book is an intimate and informing story of a most extraordinary air journey from Europe to the Belgian Congo. "Rody" was indeed a missionary of music to our brothers in black down on the Congo. From very early in the morning until night we traveled from village to village singing and preaching "the wonderful words of life."--Introduction.

Includes church hymns, revival songs, songs for male voices, children's songs, Sunday school songs, solos and choruses, and responsive readings.

"Worth While Poems" has been a great source of help and inspiration to many people. The many expressions of interest and appreciation is the reason for this second volume. These poems have been sent to me from various sources. From some the authorship and ownership notice was omitted. We have tried to give proper credit and get permissions for everything, and if we have failed, we want to make correction and adjustment. Many times a worth while thought in rhyme sticks with a fellow better than in prose form. There are many worth while thoughts of encouragement and inspiration in these poems. We sent them out with the hope that they may be of real help to you and help you to help other folks. - Homer Rodeheaver - Introduction.

The trombone generally follows the bass part of the hymn, but when it has independent melodies, it is intended that they should be played prominently. In the verse the trombones should be kept fairly subdued, but in the choruses they may come out stronger. When there are more than one, a solo trombone should always be employed for the verse. Avoid the danger of too brassy effects. One trombone can be heard well against ten violins. If greater variety is demanded, and there are more than one, the extra trombone may play the cello part. Especially this is advisable when there is no cello. The trombone may also play the string bass part, when this instrument is lacking. - To the musical director.
