rsday, June 1, 1950) OAKVILLE-TRAFALGAR JOURNAL Page 9 MUSIC ALBUM BY IRVEN FELL [Now that the fine weather is I am sure that most choir- ers will agree that these are days when it is very hard to choirs out for rehearsals, yes, fina even services. [This tfouble is not just confin- 589 pant amongst some of the e choirs. After many years personally have member's mind Ks. To start with, we must remem- that all these good souls are untary workers. There are Many who come faithfully to re- garsals and when there is a all turnout. they never seem get discouraged. Bless them, ey are the backbone of the ay- chor. Likewise Pn the winter time it is either too cold or it is snowing, when it is thawing, it was too fime rolls around, especially after faylight saving, they are busy in fhe garden, or it is too fine wea- her to sit and sing. Then of c as far as the Sunday Bhorning service is concerned, here is the age-old one about Sleeping in. There is a responsibility being a church choir just like there § in béing in any other church choir, and a large choir, when it comes to church. It does not is just a handful out. 1 have said it in the past and I that the first Teg- the choir, would they come to church? Some members even get the notion that they are doing the choirleader, the church and the minister a favor when they at- tend. They love to shout about the reason that the choirleader and organist being there regular- ly is because they get, paid for it. Well, if what some organists and choirleaders get in the way of remuneration ® is called pay (taking into consideration the hours put' into the work) it is certainly small pay. I never heard of one paying income tax on it. Many hours are put in at home, looking through music, checking this and that, phoning members, thinking how best to handle various situations which come up and planning what an- thems or other musical numbers to use for such and such a ser- vice. No, I am afraid there is more to it than the pay than is in it. It is often a love of the church and the work which is the com- pelling force. It must never be forgotten that there are many in the church be- sides the paid servants, who put in hours and hours of planning for the individual church's wel- fare. Now when the weather is at its best and in the coming four months is the time that the loy- alty of the choir members is put to a test. Many times I fear, members sit at home when their presence would be so encouraging and 'helpful to the choir and the church in general. Meet at Bethel One hundred and twenty-five ladies from Bethel and neighbor- ing churches assembled in Bethel United Church recently for the the annual W.M.S. Blossom. Tea, listened with rapt attention to Miss Edna Jaques as she gave one of her several entertaining recitals of her poems, intersper ed with comments, humourous and otherwise, leading up to the poems.
