She describes -the exhibit as a "1discovery show -- an explor- ation and study of the impact on Canada of a French artistic development which signaled the beginning of the modemn art movements." Among the 30 artists repre- sented are such well-known figures as Maurice Cullen, Clarence Gagnon, A.Y. Jack- son, Arthur Lismer, J.E.H, MacDonald, James Wilson Morrice, Robert Pilot, and Marc-Aurele de Foy Suzor- Cote. Lesser known, yet important artists include Ra- oul Barre Henre Beau, W.H. Calpp and John'-S. Gordon. Visitons to the exhibition will be able to trace the development of Canadian Im- pressionism from its first appearance in Lucius -O'Br- ien's Towing Barges on the Hudson River in 1895, to its full beginnings in William Blair Bruce's Marine Street, Laura Muntz Lyall's Girl in Sunlight and Morrice's Que- bec Citadel by Moonlight. The movement reaches its peak in wonks like Maurice Cullen's Quebec from Levis and Sùzor Cote's Passing Shadows. In the late l9th century most of the artists in this exhibition stuclied in Paris. ALthough they attended aca-, deici schools such as the Ecole Nationale des B eaux- Arts and Academie Julian. paradoxically, says Joan Mur ray the artists returned to Canada as Impressionist painters. The impast was first feit in French Canada and then taken to Ontario and the Group of Seven by A.Y. Jackson, a student of Maurice Cullen.

Band Clarke High School now has the pleasure of having two bands, senior and junior and a choir added to the music, programme for t his year. On Saturday October 5th, the Senior Band, under the cap- able direction of William Scoffield, performed their first concert of the year, at Newcastle Town Hall. The occassion was a Ladies Night banquet by the masonic Lodge. Seven pieces of vary- ing style and temp were. played, among them "Glori-'- ana Waltz", "25 or 6 to 4" and Pirates of Penzance. Regard- less of the poor stage lighting and the absence of some of the band members, both the students and the audience enjoyed the music. All money that was raised is to be put toward the purchase of uni- forms. The Junior Band and the Choir are starting to prepare for their first concert at, Christmas. More news next week.

October th, 1974 Dear Mr. Forrester As one closelyý connected with the Clarke Public Libr- ary for a number of years, I found the statement by a Mr. Hancock, as recorded in your paper of October 2nd, "That it would be most desirable if the Clarke Library was to find other quarters.", rather cur- ious. Perhaps it would be well to remind this indivîdual that the former Wad de-Ill1 property was purchased with money lef t by the late Miss Lena Renwick for the specific purpose of setting up a library. With Miss Renwick's bequest, donations from the community, etc: this was accomplished. t was only due to the good (if somewhat misguided) intentions of somne former members of the Libr- aryboard that the museum was allowed to Use some of the rooms above the library and at no cost to the ipuseumn. t would appear that if this museum has outgrown it's usefullness in the rooms so kindily lent b he Lirary special Thanksgiving service.
