Develop Love of Music Mr. Hambourg welcomed the parents and friends attending, and praised the progress made by the children since lossons commçnced on Juiy 4. This wes due, he said, flot oniy ta the >practice, the children had put in, but also to the co-operation of the parents. 'As weli as teaching the technique o! the violin, we try ta deveiop in the chiidren a sense o! apprecia- tion so that they wili love and enjoy music," Mr. Hambou'rg expiained. Under his direction, the In- troductory Class then gave a demonstration o! what thry had learned in the ten-week course. This included how ta hold the bow, playing who]e notes on four strings, slurred bowing, jumping bow and stac- cato bow. The aim in these in- troductofy lessons, Mr. Ham- bourg said, is to teach tbe pu- pil the control of the bow through instruction and streng- thiening exercises. Lessons Demonstrated The class thon piayed several simple tunes demonstrating plucking and bowing. The first was "Twinkle, Twinkle" in which soloists were Mary Mun- day, bowing, and Mary Ruth Osborne, piucking. "MerrilyWe Roll Along" was similarly play- ed with Fred Witvoet acting as soioist in bowing. "Three Old Friends"' was played through- out by the whoie group first plucking, then bowing, and theI group concluded their part o! the program ýwith 'To Mar- ket", Carolyn Stacey acting as soloist. t Mr. Hambourg, assisted by, bis mother, thon presented cer4 tificates to the young pupils.* n The five pupils in the Elem- entary Class then took, over.

E "They bave now learned note «v reading," Mr. Hambourg 2x- Il plained. "They will pass into t] the Third Grade and will make q good orchestra members." ti Strings Important Mr. Hambourg stressed the cl importance of strings, in the modemn symphony orchestra and said that instrumental music wvas playing an increas- oý ingly important part in music B- taught in schools.

"I hope these vioiin classes will be the begin- nng of a strong string section," he said. The Elementary Class pupils played *'The Beils", using three irst violins, and two second violins. Their second number vas the round, "Scotland's Burning" in which ail, some- what to their own and their instructor's surprise,* ended at he right time, rounds being qu ite a difficuit test of coîcen- ration. The five youngsters then re- ceived their certificates from Mr. Hambourg.

Neither 7one is a current book, but they tshouid nevertheless ho enter- taining to readers interested in the themes they follow. Hector Boiitho's 1950 "A Biographer's Notebook" (Mac- Millan) bas puiled aside the curtain from the private lives 0f some o! Europe's royal fam- ilies. This famous New Zea- Sland author, who bas writtel. some 30 books of fiction, bio- graphy and travel, and who lived for six years in Windsor Castie gathering material for books on the British Royal Famiiy, was a particular fav- orite o! dowager Queen Marie of Rumania. What is said about ber in this prosent volume throws an interesting iight in retrospect on the sad Queen who was so often misunder- stood in Roumania's tragic days of trial during the first years of this century and in the first years o! the most re- cent world war. 'Queen Marie, the consort o! Ferdinand 1, was the daughter of Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh, and granddaughter of Queen Victoria of Engiand. She was born in 1875 and died in 1938. Her son, Carol, caused ber much grief and disappoint- ment; but, fortunately for this proud lady who brought ber country to the side of the Ai- lies in World War I. life ended before the riots and assassina- tions of King Carol's distator. ial regime of 1938 and before Rumania's later association with the Axis in the early years o!

The writ- ings re!erred to by Mr. Bolitho in his notes are those whicn the Queen had directed toa a young man in the Unittd iStates. When this young man, wbose name romains in conti- dence, was in grade school in 1919, hie wrote an essay about the Rumanian queen, which the headmaster sent to bier. She answered at once, and during the course o! years she wrote 100 letters ta ber Amer- ican !riend. Thougli lhey neyer met, it is doubt!ul if the queen confided in anyone more than in the man who lived in Wash- ington. She made up ber mind early about. the-- Russiana,--and -you- will remember that in 1941 Rumania, under Antonescu, declared a holy war on the Soviets. To bier American cor- respondent Queen Marie wrote: "I resent the deadly ugliness o! their conceptions, the ipur- dering o! ail beauty, personal.- ity, initiative . . . And it is al a vast delusion. Tzarism was also a delusion, no doubt, but it had its beautiful and sacred aides." Edward, the Elnglish Prince o! Wales, was a favorite o! bers. When hoe was a vory young and popular man, she thought lie was inciinod to ho revolutionary. "David kicks against traditions and restric- tions without realizing that tradition made him . . . He will have to find a balance ho- tween today, yesterday and tomorrow". Later she wrote "I belong ta those who' believe in the young King Edward . . . Ho is quick, intelligent, lovable... hoe is perhaps a littie too mod- ern." And stili îater ber com- ment was: "O! course hoe must igo forward, but I hope hoe wili not destroy ahl old royal tradi- tions. Engiand is a land o! tra- ditions, and it is part o! ho r strength. If the young kingý finds the right balance between the old and the new, ho will do well." Alas! the young king was un- able to find that balance. Queen Marie liked Margar- et Mitchell's "Gone with the Wind", but dotested the hiero- ine, Sqarlett O'Hara, possiblyi because Scarlett did flot appre- ciate Rhett Butler, in whom the queen may have seen' strength and security. In 1926, Marie visited the U.S. Her every move %vas ah4-, tended by great plays o! pub- liclty wbich gave the entire tour-and, unjustly, the queen -an almosph 'ere o! poor taste.
