Workmen are busy pre- paring to enlarge the office of the Bank of Commerce to about twice its present size, taking in premis- es formerly occupied by the firm of W. S. Davis and Son. This is the second time in the past three or four years that the bank's pre- mises have been extended. Across Colborne Street at the corner of Thomas Street, the finishing touches are being put on the en- larged interior of the Bank of Toronto. The office has been completely remodelled as well as enlarged, and presents a thor- oughly streamlined and very at- tractive appearance. Two stores, H. B. Lofquist's and Town Togs, are also being enlarged. NEW PENSION FORMS NOW AVAILABLE AT POST OFFICE WICKETS Oakville's elderly people are not slow to take advantage of the new government old age pension scheme. Many requests for ap- plication forms are being re- ceived at the local post office, according to Postmaster Wil- liam Litchfield. premises. WITH THE ADDITION \ To our staff of MR.

The percussion section con- MUSIC ALBUM BY IRVEN FELL When listening to a symphony orchestra play, I also like to watch the players at their work. I find the smooth bowing of the first violins with about 20 to 25 arms all moving the same over the strings very interesting. If .one watches close enough it will be seen that the moods of the music will be noticeable through the bowing. Then there are the violas, the cellos and the big bass all bowing way. If you happen to notice a group of four or five men off in rear of the orchestra, either standing doing nothing or working vigorously, they do both, that will be the percussion sec- sists of anything which is struck, like a drum for instance. Probably the most important and most used in this section is the kettle drum. This is not to be confused with the snare drum. The kettle drum is just like a large copper kettle. You might see two, three, four or five of these drums in ome orchestra, This is because they are. pitched differently in tone, and in addit- tion each drum can be tuned to a different key. For a long time, drums were used to create rhythm and noise, but Haydn, Beethoven and Wag- ner, yes and Sibelius all began to use them as an integral part of their compositions. They are excellent for intensi- fying emotion, such as Wagner used in Lohengrin, where Tel- ramund drops dead at the sight of the holy sword. Wagner used the drums a lot to depict similar emotional events in his operas. However, can't spend too much time on drums. A snare drum with parchment on both sides and the big drum or bass drum you will find mostly in bands. Then we have the triangle, which needs little explanation, the Chinese gong which is something similar in appearance to one cym- bal, except it is much heavier, and is beaten with a soft-headed mallet. The glockenspiel 1s not so well known, but it is included in all orchestras. It is German in origin, and is like a small caril- lon. It consists of a series of flat steel plates which produce bell- like tones when struck by a mal- let. Bach strip can sound only one note, but an entire melody can be played on the glockenspiel. The xylophone is something sim. ilar to the glockenspiel, only in wood. Whole melodies can be played on it, but its tone is not as musical. In "Danse Macabre" of Saint-Saens it is used to repre- sent the bones of skeletons knock- ing together, You all know what cymbals look like, and nd doubt you have heard them. They are used in bands, jazz orchestras and sym- phonies. The player holds one in each hand and crashes them to- gother. They are usually used in scenes of revelry, and are of Oriental origin. The castanets' are bits of eb- ony or boxwood, and are clicked together by the hand. They al- ways remind one of gypsy music, and indeed are used a good deal in "Carmen." These are of Span- ish origin, but on this side of the Atlantic one always connects them with South America. I think another name for a percussion section would be the sound effects section. With the demand of the descriptive music of the 19th and 20th century, many gimmicks have been added to imitate almost every conceiv- able sound, and I am never sur- prised to hear a cock crow, a cat meow, a dog bark, birds singing, cows moo, donkeys bray and hor- ses neigh, or any other noise when I go to an orchestral con- cert. Thank heaven the noises are controlled and have definite places to be played. That is why pete you will see the per- n section standing doing nothing. They have to know thelr cues, or they could mess.up a program beautifully by coming In at the wrong time. Next orches- tral concert you attend, watch the percussion section. Tt is inter- esting and sometimes wonderful, If CARLO TOCCALINO, Silver Birch Farm, Bronte, will call In at Lofquist's Record Bar, he will be presented with a red seal re- cord with the compliments of the Journal. BENNY'S BUSY Members of Oakville Public Utilities Commission's staff have been busy with paint-brushes on the tall new light standards on Colborne Street.
