Oakville Monument Works Cemetery Lettering--Monuments Cleaned 90 COLBORNE ST. W. OAKVILLE One new resident of Oakville who feels that this town is just about the nicest place anyone could find fn which to live Is Mrs. Gwen Jones Frye. And Mrs. Frye's opinion should be a quali- fled one, for she has lived In sev- eral small towns and seen a great many more. When her husband, Pte. John Frye, was stationed at Ortona barracks a month ago and the couple took up residence at 43 Washington Ave, it was their fourth army move. Previously, they had been in Hamilton, Lon- don and Brockville. And back in wartime, when she was a mem- ber of the Red Cross Victory, en~ HY HUM TAKES FROM GILBREA" In cream content, flavour and laboratory purity tests Gilbrea Dairy milk is tops.

"Regardless of any possible future army moves, we're going to take up permanent residence here," she said last week. "It's Just the kind of home town. we have been looking. for." So enthusiastic is Mrs. Frye, in fact, that she hopes to organ- ize a class in dramatic art and correct speech at some future date, perhaps next autumn. She seems to be well qualified in: this respect, too. Of Welsh descent, she is the only Canadian ever to win first awards at the National Bistedd- fod, the annual Welsh festival held in the United States. Her elocution, when competing at 'Warren, Pa., won her an audition in New York and a chance to study in England. But the war intervened, and she had to con- tinue her studies on this side of the ocean. "T's probably just as well" she declared. "My mother and I had passage booked on the Ath- ena, and if we'd made the cros- sing, she would have returned on. that ship's disastrous voyage." Mrs. Frye, while studying in Toronto, also recelved her AT. CM. at the Toronto Conserva- tory of Music, and her touring to entertain "the armed forces found her listed on the program as a songstress rather than as an elocutionist. She did find time HOME TOWN WE'VE LOOKED FOR! NEW RESIDENT MAINTAINS to join the Conservatory Players in presenting Central. Ontario drama festival Productions, how- ever. And she also found time, a few years back, to compose a song, "Little Lad O'Dreams," which has been 'featured by Hamilton choral groups. Thomas L. Thom- as, the great Welsh singer, lk- ed the number so much, in fact, that he included it in his program during a Brantford concert ap- pearance.

I attended the Thursday night session and heard the High School Glee clubs perform. Per- sonally, I think it isto be re- gretted that more of the High Schools do mot enter glee clubs. It was just Oakville<Trafalgar and Burlington High Schools competing, but it would have been interesting if Milton and busy," she smiled, that she intends to continue her stud- fes at the Conservatory during the summer. "I hope my teaching ideas will work out. At any rate, I know I'm going to enjoy work- ing with them here." MRS. L. H.

Harris, Prop. cause: I would like to see all schools have group singing be- cause I believe there is much more to learn in that class of singing than in others, such as learning to co-operate with one another, discipline from the con- ductor, and the example of what harmony can do. It was grand singing from both choirs, and when one considers that there was only one point between the first and second it is easy to note that there is very little difference between them. Where = Burlington went out of pitch on two or three bars, the Oakville choir had a little forced tone against it in the loud passages. The choirs sang two numbers, 'the score was Oakville 88 points for each number and Burlington 87 for its first num- ber and 88 for its second num- ber. E The first number is a grand thing, Bach's, "Now Tet Every Tongue Adore Thee" It really amazed me to hear the depth of feeling which these young volces put into the number. Both choirs showed careful training and lots of hard work. Our public school entries also showed up very well. Brant- wood 'and Central choirs came first In their classes and many trios, quartettes and smaller choruses made excellent show- ings. Our rural school choirs did excellent work, and the Instruc- tors of all these children are to be congratulated. The fact that the public and rural school choirs did so well augurs well for the future of High School choirs. These chil- dren are the future members of the High School Glee Club, and it is to be hoped that they carry the efficiency they are now show- | ing along with them. Congratulations and praise have been extended in an edi- torial column of this paper, .and I can only add my own appre- ciation of the efforts put forth by the instructors on behalf of music in our community. The choir members sing as if they really enjoy it and I am sure they do. That is part of life, doing: things we enjoy doing.
