Gracie Fields, acclaimed as one of the world's greatest entertainers. more than lived up to her reputat- ion when she appeared before I crowd of some two thousand at. the Charlottetown Forum last evening.

Many superlative: are used to describe stars of Hollywood. but all of these words seem to fall short V1161! tllklnl 0! "cur Gracie." Alboun” with vitality. energy, and exulberance. Miss Fields captiv- ated the audience from the mom- ent. she welked onto the stage un- til she finally left It some we and I half hours later.

with a brief intermission to al- low the audience to rest. from the convulsions of laughter into which she had thrown them continually. Gracie proved that people are alike the world over in their fondness for the type of humor she offers.

Although comedy seems to be Miss FIelds' meet. the drink that goes with it to provide the perfect- ly balanced banquet of entertain- ment. is found in her singing of such beautiful songs as "the Lord's Prayer." and "Count Your Biase- lngs". People throughout the huge auditorium realized that these were prayers. sung by a very sincere and devout. women. and entered into the spirit of the numbers as some of them closed their eyes. ana others fumbled for handkerchiefs.

Miss Fields has the happy fac- ulty of finding out in her first few numbers just what the such- ence likes, and has an unlimited reserve from which to draw the type of songs and stories that she knows will please her audience of the moment.

Comedy Numbers Outstanding among her comedy

offerings were the renditions of "My Hero" from the Chocolate Soldier. and "serenade." In this

latter number Gracie started out with all the dignity of an opera singer. but lost it completely after the first few bars. Using as her "prop" the inevitable scarf which she always carries on her concert tours. Miss Fields found no difficulty in changing her charact- er from the dull-wilted country less to the dominating tax inspect- or. ln the twinkling of an eye.

Retaining many of the old songs for which she is so famous. Gracie rang in some new ones lasl: even- ing, but it still seems that endl- ences will always remember her for such old favourites as "The Biggest Aspldlstm". Although now in her fifties, Gracie seems to re- gain youth as she sings such num- bers aa "My First Love”. giving her interpretations all the buoyancy and expectancy of a girl in her teens and even bringing a thrill- ing sweetness and youthtu-lness into her voice. Although, as she stated last evening. she has often thought of retiring, it is hoped that Miss Fields will continue bringing laughter and happiness to people for many years to come".

Appearing last evening in one group of viollnieolos. Miss Mitr- guertte Learning proved herself a most: capable performer. From Niagara. Falls. Miss Learning play- ed with 3. fine knowledge of violin technique, and performed with ease such difficult numbers as Montl's "Cmrdas" and "Intermezzo".

Mr. Jimmy Bailey. accompanist. for the evening. opened the pro- gramme with a group of piano solos which were very well receiv- ed. Although most. of these were more or less popular numbers, the favorite of the audience seemed to be the "Ritual Fire Dance."

Toynllee Discusses cold War challenge

LONDON. June 21-(Reuters) - Historian Arnold Toynbee said (5. day that the cold war has con- celled Britalnig privileges of sov- ereignty within the western com. munlty and probably gives her no choice but to subordinate her sovereignty to win.

In a letter to The Times, Pro- fessor Toynbee questioned the Bfgument put in a Times article last Friday that the British Labor Party's insistence on western co- operation by consent "reflects Bri- tish publlc opinion and the facts of British life in the world."

Toynbee commented that, as- sumlng this to be true. this Bri- tish public opinion was no longer valid because the will of a Bri- fish public-or any other single western country--would probably have little effect in arresting "the western community's forced march towards reunion."

"The cold war. perhaps even more conclusively than the atom bomb, has cancelled the former privileges both of the western community in the world and of Great Britain and the overseas countries in the western commun- ity." he wrote.-

"If the people of western Christendom do not subordinate their national eoverelgnlles now

with one accord. we may lose the cold war. ”Our choice may lie between

winning the cold war by I"-lb0T' dlnatlng national soverelgntles nnd forfeiting national sovereign- tles by losing the cold war."

auunuiw vv. M. s.

The Bunbury W. M. s. met at the home of Mrs. J. A. MacDon- ald on Tuesday afternoon, June seventh. At this meeting the mem- bers celebrated the twenty-fifth anniversary of the W. M. B. of the United Church of Canada. and it was very encouraging to have present the large attendance of twenty-seven adults and four children.

The worship period, which was conducted by Mrs. Henry Wood, was opened with the hymn "Hap- py The Home." Scripture was read by Mrs. Chas. Stewart. Mrs. Byl- van Pippy and Mrs. Raymond Mac- Donald. Following the Scriptural readings, Mrs. C. J. Wood led in prayer, after which a solo was very beautifully rendered by Mrs. A. S. weir. A short story was read by Mrs. C. Scranton and an article on stewardship was read by Mrs. Hope Mulch. .

Looking over past records it was learned that this society was or- gunlzed in 1889. and from articles prepared by older members of the society. those present were impressed with the courage, vis- ion and faith of the founders of this organization. In reviewing the records of the past twenty-live years it was learned that there has been (with the exception of a few years) a steady increase in givings, 1949 having been the ban- ner year in this respect. A prayer of Thanksgiving and the hymn. "Faith of Our Fathers," cloud thin part of the program. Mrs. Tait then led the closing "Lltony of Dedicstlon to Advance."

The business period was presid- ed over by the president who wel- comed so many of the older mem- bers, snd also the daughters of former members.
