The famous Leslie Bell Singers, con- ducted by Dr. Leslie R. Bell, Joan Rowland, the brilliant young Canadian pianist and the choir of St. John's Church under the dir- ection of Irven Fell provided a highly. satisfying program that won rapturous applause from the big crowd. ~ The Leslie Bell Singers sang a number of well-chosen selections, Starting with the old ballad "Willle Prithee Go To Bed," they followed with the Largo from Dyorak's New World Symphony; the popular spiritual "Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho;" the well loved Londonerry Air, "Tradl Nuka," Latvian Folk Song; and a medley of Gilbert and Sullivan airs. In "Scottish Patrol" the: ver- satile singers gave an excellent imitation of bagpipes, and in "Le Flacre" they cleverly simulated the noise of galloping horses' hoo- ves. "In a Monastery Garden," "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes," "Animal Fair" and the well-known French-Canadian chanson "Alou- ette" were all rendered in a man- ner that delighted the audience. Miss Rowland chose as her first group of selections three Chopin compositions, a waltz, a nocturne and a ballade. She proved her- self a finished performer, with a delicate, interpretive touch. Her other numbers were "The Soar- ing," by Schumann, "On Wings of Song" by Mendelssohn-Liszt, and Liszt's "La Campanella" In the first part of the program the St. John's choir gave a satisfying rendition of Bach's "Now Let Every Tongue Adore Thee," Rach- manionif's "To Thee O Lord," and Sullivan's "Cachuca." day. shirts. course. us a call? | LAUNDRY SERVICES = MI DUNN ST.

The first question, in periods when farm surpluses seem likely to develop, found all Halton For- ums of one opinion, that agricul- tural production should not be controlled, giving as their reas- ons, the world wide need of food, and the fact that production is all ready under control from the weather, which plays a very im- portant part in farm production. No one knows this any better than the farmer, it was pointed out, with reference being made to the insects and plant diseises, which also play an important part In production or non-production. The second question preceded by the following statement "It has been suggested that in the International crisis, we should have price controls of all essent- lal commodities. =~ What do you think?" Again all forums were agreed that if farm prices are controlled, so should wages be controlled. "You cannot buy high priced implements, with low farm prices," one forum commented. "At the present time prices of agricultural products are out of line with manufactured items, as farm implements, 'automobiles, etc. Some means of control would help but we think parity prices would be the best system. In con- trolling farm prices, farm pro- ducts should have a steady floor price and a cost plus plan to in- sure the farmer a reasonable pro- fit for his labor, whereby he would be on the same basis as the in- dustrialist." .
