The ar- ticle was included in a two page description on "What is Singing?" by Franklyn Kelsey, in the Etude music magazine. It is not my intention to delve into this subject on my own I am neither competent in my. own mind, nor do I wish to leave that impression. However, with the ex- perience I have had, from boy chorister in England to many years in adult choirs, I am going to com- ment on one phrase which Mr. Kelsey used, principally because it is simple and the correction could be made on youngsters, both at home and at school, but alas I am afraid it is not done. 1 am referring to a sentence in which Mr. Kelsey says that those who exhort us to sing as we speak are really demanding physical impossibilities. What I want to say is, that if we did sing as we speak it would be pretty bad. For instance, how many people leave off the "g" in words ending in "ing?" It is com- mon to hear I'm comin, I'm goin. Words like spirit, spoken and sung as spiret, Trinety for Trin- ity and many more. Most of the words ending in D and T are slopped over and the last conson- ant might just. as well have not been there. Quite often I have heard recent arrivals from the British Isles criticized because of what some people like to call "affection" in their speech. I dis- like affectation myself, very much so, but the recent arrivals can at least make themselves under- stood, and they do speak the way they have been taught to speak. There are those who would dis- agree with that statement, but I ask them to listen and pay at- tention and be fair in their judg m ent Nok, 1 believe that a lot of this could be prevented if children were set an example by parents, yes and = teachers. Parents can help a child with a good voice by correcting errors of diction, long before the child is ready for a voice production teacher. Good habits are as easily taught as bad habits and speaking correctly is a thing we are taught, or should be, but we just get sloppy. Con- GOING tory is 'almost ready Should you wish additional listings ir THE BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY OF CANADA Oakville's New Telephone Direc- sonants in singing have to be ex- aggerated otherwise the D and T Would mot get any further than the first row in the audience. These comsondnts at the be: ginning of a word can be a tre- mendous help in diction and in bringing the voice forward. All vocal teachers will stress the point of bringing the voice forward in order to get resonance. Just try this yourself and you will see what I mean.

SHARES HONORS WITH PROMINENT PEEL GRAD. © M. "Jack" Fraser, prominent farmer of the neighbouring Streetsville sector, and David Pelletterio, of Milton, were sig- nalled out for special mention by the Ontario dept. of agriculture at last week's luncheon. Mr. Fraser received a special plaque from Premier Leslie Frost during a special presentation re- sulting from the depts decision to "find out what has happened to former Junior Farmer." Fol- lowing a great deal of investiga tion, Mr. Frost told scores of Junior Farmers attending the luncheon, it was decided that the former Chinguacousy reeve and Peel county warden represented an outstanding example of the benefits of youthful agricultural training. "Jack Fraser made his start as a farmer the hard way, but he has buflt a wonderful reputation," the premier declared ~~ "Among the many awards won by his ani- mals are three premier breeder banners and sTx premier exhibi- tor banners at the C.N.E., while last year at the Royal Winter Fair and this year at the C.N.E, his entries in both bull and fe- male classes took grand champ- ionships. Here is a truly success- ful agriculturist and breeder who has also found time to take an active part in community affairs." In voicing grateful acceptance of the award, Mr. Fraser gave much credit for his success to his training in the Junior Farmer organization and to the depts agricultural representatives. David Pelletterio, a member of the four-man feam who entered the judging competitions in Brit- ain last summer, Was presented with an award forwarded from overseas for his placing in the competitions at the Royal High- Jand Show in Scotland and the Royal show in England. utterafice to the D and T the breath is stopped by the tongue at the front of the top teeth. Sound. comes when the tongue drops and the breath comes out. The breath has to be forward, so you will see what I mean when I say that consonants can help in bringing both speaking tone and singing tone forward. M is sim- ilar, except that the breath is stopped by the lips, that is why humming is good, for vocalists, it brings the breath forward.

He gave come facts about the new school, mentioning thatl ts furnishings alone had cost $72,000, "1 think {he time is not far distant when either the provincial or the fed- eral government will take over the whole cost of education from the municipapifiey," said MI. Blakelock, declaring that the ris: ing cost of the high school Was becoming too great for Qakville to bear. Dealing with the subject of re ligious education in Halton coun: ty schools, Lu. lL. Skuce, county inspector of public schools, said that religion was being taught in every one of the 175 schools, and that only one teacher in the Whole county had urged that this teaching be discontinued. ~Reli- fous education, Mr. Skuce point: Blakelock od out, started in the pupil's home. "We can only supplement, to some degree, What you have done in the home for better or worse," he said. The growth of the Home and School movement was outlined by Mrs. J. D. Taylor, Hamilton, editor of Canadian Home and School Magazine in her address entitled "New Trends in Home and School" Total membership for Canada was now nearly 170, 000, Mrs. Taylor pointed out, and growing rapidly, "We are growing too, in pres- tige, she declared. "There are names in Home and School that are known right across Canada.' "There is nothing new in what we are trying to do" said the speaker. "We are trying to be better parents, to help children to a better maturity." She em- phasized the importance of dis: ussing individual and local prob- lems at Home and School meet ings. "We are taking a new Interest in education, of a different kind that we took before," Mrs. Tay- jor continued. "We want people to come out of the schools with a genuine distate for vulgarity. We don't want them to believe that there is an easy solution to pro- blems, that reward comes With out effort." It was planned to hold a Can adian conference on children and youth within the next year or so, Mrs. Taylor told the meeting. Plans were also going forward for the revival of the internation- al organization which was dis- continued during the war. "It is our duty to study the needs of children and to find the best conditions needed for sound growth, in order that we may add to the quality of Canadian life," concluded Mrs. Taylor, Songs by the High School Glee Club, under the direction of H.
