Lunch was calm and collect- ed. Just an upset glass of milk to liven things a bit. Two aides put to bed and a slight period of relaxation. Now the work begins again. Dishes done, house cleaned again - now to the ironing. Ugh! Look at that stack. Oh, oh! here comes trouble. A whole army _ The matron of the "abbey" was busy doing the wash. hatch! Two young helpers were ‘doing their best to assist her. They were taking the new wash out of the basket and scrubbing the floor. The shriek of agony heard from the matron can still make me tremble. The washing finally done and out but there is still danger. One young aide got mired in the ploughed gar- tien. His newly cleaned white boots are now black and coated heavily with mud.

Mem- bers of the audience, who sat enthralled while Miss Hall sang, enthusiastically agreed with Mr Battle when he said Miss Hall is “one of the finest singers in this country. She has one of the rnost beautiful voices I have ever heard.” Mr. Battle analyzed the score of Tschaikovsky's Fourth Symphony, which is included in the library’s col- lection, pointing out how the “fate theme” recurred throughout the com- position, and giving a brief resume of the other themes contained in this symphony. “You can have fun with music,” stated Rex \Battle well-known musician and resident of this area, as he inaug- urated a collection of records at Rich- mond Hill Public Library Sunday after- noon. He advised the formation of a. masic club in Richmond Hill which would hold meetings to listen to and to discuss music.

Registered borrowers of the Rich- mond Hill Public Library may use the record collection inaugurated by Mr. preciative of Mr. Battle’s playing of two selections from Chopin, the “F Sharp Nocturne” and the “Polonaise in A Flat,” which displayed two very dif- ferent moods of the composer. Reminiscing about his days with “Singing Stars of Tomor- row,” on which Joan Hall, Lois Marshall, John Vickers and many more Canadian singers made their first nation-wide appearances, Mr. Battle recalled having his car serv- iced in Edmonton by a 19-year-old boy who was singing an operatic aria. The next day he auditioned for Mr. Battle and appeared on “Singing Stars.” That year he was not successful but returned the next year to make the grade. Twelve years later, he is now very much a success. The boy is the now famous Robert Goulet. The audience also appreciated the excellent reproduction of some records from the collection they were privileged to hear on a stereophonic machine loan- ed for the occasion by the Richmond Hill TV.
