1917 October General Conference·First Day Afternoon Session·1917-10-05

I am reminded that the Presidency and the Twelve were invited, yesterday, by the Presidency of the Primary Association, to visit the exhibit of the handiwork of the little children for the benefit of afflicted soldiers. The exhibit is placed in the upper, large room of the Bishop's building, and I am sure Sister Felt and her associates will be pleased to have any of the brethren and sisters who desire to see what is being done by the children, in the Primary work, to call and visit them.

A duet and chorus was sung by Sarah Hood and James H. Neilson and the Tabernacle choir, entitled, "I waited for the Lord."

The closing prayer was pronounced by President Richard W. Young of the Ensign stake of Zion.

The conference adjourned until 2 p. m.

Overflow Meeting

An overflow meeting of the conference was held in the Assembly Hall, adjoining the Tabernacle, at 10 a. m., presided over by President Seymour B. Young, of the First Council of Seventy. The singing was by the Jordan stake choir.

The choir sang, "The morning breaks, the shadows flee."

Prayer was offered by Elder Soren Rasmussen, of the Jordan stake presidency.

The choir then sang the anthem, "Come let us sing unto the Lord,"
