The Eighth Northumnberland County Music Festival was staged from 9:30 Tuesdey niornlng, May 2th, tiil midnight Friday, May 23rd, 1947, under most favour- able circumstances. The Presby- terian Church, Caxnpbellford, pro- vîded a most satlsfactory audit- orium for the purpose. Mr., G. Roy Fenwick, Mus. Bac., Director of Music for the Department of Education, Toront o, Ont., offic- iated as adjudicator in his own inimitable mander. His comments were at ail times instructive as welI as interesting. Ail the music supervisors in the county took an active part in the festival. To their efforts can be attributed in great measure the success of this event. Mr. R. B. Dawson, presi- dent, had charge of each session and conducted each one ta a sue- -cesaful completion. Mr. Fenwick expressed many times his delight at the work pre- sented. He pralsed especially the piano work and the výocal solo work. He stated that he would be able ta tell the rest of Ontario that Northumberland was a sing- ing county. Those who attended the final concert on Friday night were de- lighted with the excellence of the numbers. This concert was 50 well attended that an overflow crowd filled not only the large auditorium of the Presbyterian church but also filed that of the Jigh School where every number was repeated. The Campbellford Home and School Association has earned special mention by their stupen- dous efforts in successfully organ- izing many details for this festi- val. We are indebted to Inspector A. A. Martin, secretary o! the festi- val for sending us this brief re- Sport. Autolat Flned For Car.e«s Drlving A fine of $10 and costs or ten days in Couaty Jail was imposed on Ernest H. Jones, 86 Church Street, Bowmanville, in Magis- trate's Court, Oshawa, May 30, by 'Magistrate F. S. Ebbs, when he pleaded guilty ta a charge of care- less driving. Evidence was that on May 24, about 9 p.m. the accused, who was driving west on No. 2 Highway at Hart's Hill, attempted ta pass an auto, also driveni west, by H. Sheppard, R.R. 2, Oshawa. In puiling out Jones clipped the rear lef t fender and bumper of the Sheppard car. At the same moment a car ap- proaching from the west without any lights loomed into view. Jones took ta the left ditch in prefer- ence ta running head-on into this car and ended up in the south ditch on his side, bad]y damaging his car. The fa:ct that-it was du§k and the approaching car was travel- ling without lights was stressed by R. D. Humphries, K.C., who asked that a minimum fine be im- posed. A charge o! dangerous driving was withdrawn. A recent purchase of 48 new diesel-electric locomotive units brings the number in use at C.N.R. terminais throughout the. country ta 127.

Bey scoute Plant 20,000 Trees At Ganaraska Pro j.ct What is iikely ta be an annuai event and a fine useful holiday was the outing given last week ta members of district Boy Scout troops ta the Ganaraska Forest Reserve. Moving in a week Thursday, some 60 Scouts en- camped on the southern slope of the reserve and busied themselves planting trees until the f*ollowing Sunday. Meantime there were hikes, nature study, sing-songs and a bit of fishing. The hegira was planned by Pro- vincial Headquarters Boy, Scouts acting with the help o! the pro- vincial department of Planning and Development. Scouts were in- vited from Port Hope, Bowman- ville, Cobourg, Peterboro, Osha- wa and other points. Housedi un- der canvass and with a marque cook tent. it was a grand outing. Some thousands of trees were planted in the two-day field oper- ations. Scouts have for some time play- ed a major part in reforestation schemes in various parts of On- tario. This was the first organiz- ed attempt ta invite Scouts ta par- ticipate in the Ganaraska devel- opment. It is right in uine with their objective in pursuing wood- craft and at the camp lectures are provided in this art. Field Comn- missioner A. L. Jackson was in charge of this successful local in- novation.
