THE CAMADITAN g9'ATESBIAN. OWIMANVILLE. ,THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 5th, 1931 PAG l HOT TWEED'S DECISION (Belleville Ontario Intelligencer) Tweed Village on Monday decided to buy its Hydro plant and so join the ever-increasing armny of muni- cipalities owning its own distribu-1 tion agency. Tweed did not al- ways express itself, for last year with the Hydro purchase tangled up in election matters It lost, but this year. put forward on nomination day, it carried. The Village Coun- cil was .iustified in going to the ad- ditional expense of this election if! such be the case in order to get a clear view of the electors on the purchase. The electors by 189 to 7 decided to buy the plant for $19,- 000. It is hoped that Tweed wiii find its plant as successfui as Bell- eville has found its purchase to be. Tweed is no mean centre. It is proud of its streets, its stores, its population, wich is growing. and whlch has increased to 1.347 this year from 1,236 last year. It has a waterworks system, and now it hs going to be the proud possessor of a Hydro plant, as weii as bemng a partner ini the great enterprise whlch 15s s potent an agencyr in the development of Ontario. THE EXAMINATION Do you know that the most im- portant part of a pair of glasses ls the examination through which you undergo before the glasses are made. Yeu can undoubtedly get a cheap pair of glasses but wth them you wiil probably get a very poor examination. If the examination is not tborough and the prescription not right the glasses will net be. te you, worth the case that contamns them. Remember it's the examination that counts and it doesn't go with a cheap pair of glasses. G. M.

MUSICAL PBOGRAM A stranger dropping into the iYoung People's League last Monday iweek migist have been excused if ise » had thought it a meeting of tise IMusic Club; f r the program was o! .music and musicians and by music- i ans. Tise idea was conceived by tise )4th vice president, Mrs. Clarence AI-, 5lin, who rallied to her assistance iMiss Hattie Mason. supervisor of music in the public scisool. After the opening devotionai ex- ercises Miss Mason took chargé and directed the prograrn. As an intro- duction to the theme, Miss Bernice Gilbank, league pianist. read a num- ber of passages f rom the old and new testaments. relating to mnusic, and »made comments on thern-, this in .place of tise usual scripture lesson. 3Miss Mason sisowed pictures of three 5great musicians and composers, Men- tdelssohn, Mozart and Haydn. and 3then gave a brief sketch of Felix 5Mendelssoisn's l! e and works, not- ably his Songs witisout Words, Heb- ride's Overture, Midsummer Night's 1Dreami and St. Paul and Elijah. All his music was like bis disposition, light and joyous. As an example of this Mrs. E. C. Fisher, United Churcis organist. played his Spmnning Song wbicb represents spinning wheels iwisinitig and spinning girls singing. Miss Mason next gave a sketch of Mozart and his works. Mozart was a musical prodigY. He composed and played works of menit at five years of age. His masterpiece was Thse Magie Flute. He died ini absolute poverty and was buried in a pauper's grave. His works which have corne down to us are also, strange as it may seem, of a joyous character. One of these, Romanzo, was lnterpreted by Mrs. Geo. Honey. Miss Mason then turned the atten- tion of ber audience to Haydn, known as the Father of tise Orches- tra. His compositions number over 1000. He was in charge o! tise music for the Court of Austria and was a contemporary of Mozart. His Gypsy Rondo, wbicb is an interpretation of gypsies dancing was played by Mrs. C.ç A. Cowan. Miss Mason tisen touched on the influence of these tbree musicians in the light. of their contributions to sacred music, instrumental and voc- al, and pointed out that 14 o! thse hyrnn tunes in our churcb hymn book are derived f rom their compos- itions. Miss Mason also read Music's Own Autobiograpisy, which was lis- tened to with intense interest. in conclusion nine o! Miss Mason's sen- for music pupils o! tise public scisool sang a isymn to tise tune of Austria whicis is the Austrian national an - them tune and Haydn's last compos- ition before bis deatis. A lady in this town dlaims tise honor o! being at one time the Sun- %1day Scbool teacher o! the present 1Mayor of Toronto.

Save Some Money Owing to the special rate on ail decorating, during January. meeting with a very favorable response, I have decided to give the same terms Up to the end of February, on ail papers sold and work done. There is no catch in this, just a lower rate for the winter months, which benefits us both. It gives me employment ini the duli season and saves you a nice percentage of your decorating bill.
