Atkinson and Miss M. Strathdee tha Music Club opened their evening with five numbers by the Senior Band, smartly clad in their forest green jackets. Flutes, saxophones, Clarinets, horns, trumpets, trombones, tuba and percussion handled the variety of compositions from the smooth rhythm of Ivanovici‘s Waves of the Danube to the toe-tapping metre of that most famous of English marches, Colonel Bogey by Alford and the complicated parts arrangement of Walter's Deep River Rhapsody. Music Night at the Richmond Hill High School which was held last Thursday and Friday nights in the school auditorium was an unqualified success with two bands, the girls choir, a piano solo and an Operetta on the pro- gram. The Ptage curtains opened upon the rainbow pictu f the young ladies' choir in t eir bouffant formal gowns, literally in rain- bow colours. Their fresh voices rose in a variety of different melodies from the gay Doodle Song and the Happy Wanderer to the tender Brown Bird Sing- ing. Their songs were divided into two groups, between which Cecil- ia Anderson played the intricate L’Isie Joyeuse by Debussy. Be- fore this piano 5010, Mr. Atkinson paid tribute to the work of the young pianist who helped with the choir and the Operetta as well, and felt that “things would not be quite the same" when “Berry” graduated this year. Up- on the demands of the audience Miss Anderson gave an encore of Brahms’ Variations of : Theme byflPeganinl. A In introducing the Junior Band Mr. Atkinson said that they were for the most part made up of the Grade IX music class, and that all but three had learned to play their instrument since September. They were a great credit to their instructor in both their march se- lections and their more melodic numbers in which they were able to get good shgdigg. _ Blue Moon Waltz by Ribble, a Chorale, anonymous and Robert's Shadowland Waltz alternated with the Promotion Waltz and two marches for jupior ‘bands. Once more the stage curtains opened. this time to disclose the deck of H.M.S. Pinafore com- plete with mast and dangling rope noose. A gay array of young ladies of the period, in crinoline hustle: and bonnets, mingled freely with the bold braided cap- tilns and admirals and the sailors The general meeting for the Charles Howitt Home and School was held on Monday, April 27. Miss Jane McLaren was the guest speaker. She is the librarian at Thomhrill Public Library and she spoke about the growth of the library in Thornhill. _ Charles Hewitt Home and School It was first organized in the Masonic Lodge and is now back near its original site. The library was once in the Thomhill Public School, after which it moved to the new Anstey Building over the shops. Finding the house on No. 7 Highway seemed to answer (to their dreams until the house went up for sale and they had to vacate once more. The library is now very con- veniently located on Yonge St. in a shop. near the traffic lights. It is operated with money from three sources: (1) Tax money â€" from Thomhlll village, population 1,050. ' (2) Grant from province. (3) Fees from non-residents â€"â€" who pay $1.00 for adults and 50c for children a year. Tfié’fhomhili Lions Club gives a donation each year to purchase books for Children's Club. WILLch figét p/eaéed Miss McLaren had several sug- gestlons for patents to‘ interest their children in reading. She felt if parents would read to chil- dren at an early age that they would enjoy books by themselves when able to read. If the book is well-written for the adult then the child will find it good read- Miss McLaren then read an ex- cerpt from “Fortune” magazine about the unrecommended series, and explained why they were not desirable books. She then closed with readings from Ernest Thompson Seaton‘s Red Ruff, the Partridge of the Don Valley, written in 1890. and the “Mad Hatter's Tea Party" from Alice in Wonderland. The president, Les Walters. thanked the speaker on behalf of the members.

The excerpts from H.M.S. Pina- fore by'Gilbert and Sullivan gave the audience both chorus and solo selections from the famous light opera. The men’s chorus of “We Sailed the Ocean Blue" opened this part of the program where the jack tars of the period ap- peged a rough, tough crew in- de . At this point in the program presentations were made on the stage to Miss Strathdee, Cecilia Anderson and Mr. Atkinson for their contributions in preparing the evening's entertainment. in their summer whites. To close the show the Senior Band' gave the Rachmaninoff Prelude in C Sharp Minor which from the familiar opening three chords gave a depth and richness of tone, and displayed the blend- ing of the brasses, Mr. Atkinson announced that this was the band's first venture into "the realm of the longhair.” He explained that it was hard to de- \-lop appreciation of music with only marches. The lively Lady of Spain was attempted this year for the first time because the brasses felt that it would be “kinda fun to try." It was to their credit that it came off most successfully. Sousa's Thunderer. Semper Fi- delis and Washington Post com- pleted this section of their pro- gram and the evening closed with ‘the audience joining in the sing- |ing of 0 Canada.
