I WED IN SHARON The Common Round By Isabel STOCKTAKING AND STAR FREE CONCERT It seems the natural and logical thing to take stock at the beginning of the pp assess our successes and study our failures and their cure- j CANADIAN GENERAL ELECTRIC ED Trinity United Church Churches as well as places of business and individuals do just that and results are instructive and illuminating One thing I thought very fine was the reach ing and in some cases passing of the various allocations home and missionary Another thing that appealed to me was the pur chase of 100 new hymn books Have you ever gone into a strange church and found two or even three people trying to peer into the recesses of a single small hymn book cannot look over with anybody so memory do what it can and let the rest go AH the members of the Wo mens organizations work hard the Womens Association to as it were keep the home fires burning by helping wherever help is needed in church choir or parsonage They sponsored the concert the Star Free Concert they gave moral and financial support to the choir in their efforts to secure a new choir vestry and new gowns Now the choir is the proud possessor of both thanks to the the official board and generous contributions from individuals The three mission ary groups did a grand job in sending aid to those who sorely need it and let it not be the wise admixture of religion sentiment and humor which rouses and holds audiences al ways and there was a restrained quality in their interpretations which exceeded the bounds of good taste and their recognition of their surround ings We would all like to hear the Commodores again Mien came the Swiss bell ringers who did some quite extraordinary things with glasses and various kinds of bells This talented pair were pleasant to watch delightful to listen and intriguing to the mind because we were alt sure if we ranged a certain amount of glasses on a table filled them with water and stroked them ever so gently we would never no never achieve a single musi cal note When the lights in the church were extinguished and only the stained glass effect of vari-col- glasses shone out it made one think of illuminated altars and lovely shrines and a fitting setting for the Bach- Gounods Ave Maria In the bell numbers ones eyes could not follow the swift manipula tion of the ringers It was a marvellous exhibition of coop erative playing Rev J Aiken and Dr Gil- that the women of these or- an outstanding piece of Perhaps its the friendly telephone installer doing his job quickly and neatly Or an operator going to extra trouble to help you locate someone in a distant city Or that pleasant young lady in the telephone office so ready to oblige you in any way she can true that he men and women who work for the Bell really arc glad to he of service They arc looking for make good service even better They lake pride in Bell tradition of treating people the way like to be treated THE COMPANY OF CANADA are able to do this without real work thought and a dedication of themselves to doing their Masters work Mr Robert Lewis is taking over the post of recording secre tary of the official board a post long and faithfully filled by Mr Johns who wished to retire The Sunday school the Busy Beavers Young Peoples Group and all the official bodies that make a church a living organiz ation gave fine reports while the J Aiken said there were yet more worlds to conquer es pecially to interest teen in church and missionary activities Multiply the reports one church by the reports of all the Christian churches in the world and you get a magnificent en semble of effort and money but it has never been enough and never will until all peoples shall own Jesus Christ Lord and Saviour Star Free Concert When Rev J Aiken said it was not often that we received so much for nothing he was stating the combined opinion of a church full of delighted lis teners Trinity United church choir- Norman conducting and to which the concert people gave a most generous contribution opened the entertainment with four numbers Listen to the Lambs Thou Lord Come My Way and The Glory of the Lord from the Messiah after which the choir retired to the gallery where seats had been reserved for them to enjoy the rest of the program and there was cer tainly much to delight any au dience however fastidious About the Commodores one could say much There is the fine blending of voices which constant ensemble practice gives There is the warmth which rays out from singers to a sympathetic and appre ciative audience there was work with the bells It is not everyone who can conquer an unknown and difficult instru ment in one lesson and perform before a large audience They were good sports The balloon rendering of Irene was a real touch of funi Altogether we can thank the Star Free Concert company for delightful evening The Newmarket Era and Express Thursday Jan Fate It BIG REDUCTIONS In Childrens Wear We are discontinuing
