littoral Club i Singers In Fine Program

A large and appreciative aud- ience greeted the Y.M.C.A. Choral Club Singers last evening when they presented a splendid program in the Heartz Memorial; Hall un- der the direction of their con- ductor. Rena Wood Johnstone. Throughout the entire program. this finely blended and well bal- anced eneeznble reflected great credit on Mrs. Johnstone, whose painstaking work with the group was plainly evident in the various numbers.

The arrangement of the pm- gram in four groups. each group with its distinctive atmosphere and suitable costumirlg. added greatly to the enjoyment of the audience and helped it to enter into the spirit of each group as it was presented.

‘The first group of songs was entitled "Cathedral Echoes" and opened with "Hear Our Prayer," an arrangement of the well-known "Kammenoi Ostrow" of Ruben- stein. In the vocal adaptation the ‘melodies were taken by the voices ‘while in the accompaniment the chime of distant church bells ‘could be heard. The music cap- Itured the quiet asmosphere of I prayer and suppllcatioh. The two ‘other numbers of this group were an unaccompanied example of libth Century church music "Vere lLanguores Nostros". sung in Latin and "Cherubim Song” by Tchaik- owsky. Fcr this group the sing- ers wore choir gowns. They re- sponded to an encore vrith the hymn "The Spacious Finnanlexlt."

‘File second group of songs was representative of a comlilei! change of atmosphere and cos- tume when "Folk Scms From Old Homelands" was offered. “The

I I

Old Woman and the Paddler." an English folk song opened. follow- ed by a duet for two soprancs. “Come Where Nodcling Violets Grow" by Handel. sung by June MacPllerson and Noreen Auld. "Good-night My Dainty Dear." a composition of Edward Gennan sung by the ensemble and a trio. “Early One Moi-pins." a. tradit- ional Old English song arranged

‘any Allen. Shirley Darrach and Norma Dalziel were lnteresilnfli’ interpreted. The final number in this group was u rollicking Swiss "Walking Song" in which ihc fills diction of the singers was noted. As an encore. “Bonnie Doorl"‘was sung at the end of this Folk Song group. The singers wore bright peasant costumes.

The third group of songs. “A "Capella moir" comprised “Lift ‘thine Eyes" from Mendelssohn": "Elijah", “Night Hymn At Sea" by Thompson, with its beautiful _hum.ming interlude between the ivrrses, and "Lo. A Voice to HEM‘- en Sounding" by Bortniaaky. This group of unaccompanied music. which might have taxed the cal!- hclties of much older singers. was splendidly sung and the fresh voung voices of the ainqers 1811*. an etherial quality to the lovell’ religious music. The hymn. “Now The Day l'.s Over" was given as an encore.

In the last group of three songs. "In Tile Modern Manner" the girls in their‘ evening gowns presented a lovely picture as the curtains were drawn back. Not- able in this group was the 90113 by the well-known Canadian com- poser. Heuley 'Willan, entitled "Angel Spirit of Sleep". This was one of the munbers sung at the

New Glasgow Music Festival last spring. the other beinfs Little Damozel” which followed. and which elicited a high mark and a silver cup on that occasion The first of this group was en- titled “Sandman Am A-softly Comitf". an adaptation of the familiar "l-lluhoresque" by Dvorak- ‘Brelults’ "Lullaby" and. Mslottss "The Lord's Prayer" were given as encores following the insistent applause which greeted this 81'0"!!-

UITAWA, Oct. 29- Proprietors of shoddy down-at-the-heei tour- ist campa who make American tourists pay through the nose were scored by Chief Justice Thane A. Campbell of Prince Edward Is- land in an address at the closing dinner of the 14th annual conven- tion of the Canadian Association of Tourist and Publicity Bureaus at the Chateau Laurier on Friday night.

Mr. Justice Campbell said he thoroughly concurred in a recent statement by a prominent tourist burelu official that there were far too many shoddy tourist camps which were a disgrace to the whole country,

"We must, one way or another. shame the proprietors of these places into Improving the services they offer," he said. "A tourist should not accept a cheap, ram-

Co-operation In More Vigorous Forms Sought

WINNIPEG, Oct. 20—(CP)—N‘ew and more vigorous forms of co- operation between Federal and Provincial Governments, manage- ment and labor and between Gov- ernment and industry are essen- tial if Canada. is t0 enjoy economic growth. Reconstruction Minister Howe said tonight.

In an address prepared for deliv- ery to the young men's section of the Winnipeg Board of ‘Trade Mr. Howe reviewed the progress of reconversion in the first year of peace. He emphasized that full employment was not an end in lt- self and should be accompanied by high living standards.

While great strides had been made in the conversion of lndus- try and in absorbing labor froth the armed forces and war indus- tries strilkes had a serious effect on the year's production and had even modified the putlook for the future.

A certain minimum of economic co-operaiion between the Domin- ion and Provinces, not yet accomp- lished. was necessary to provide the conditions lfor economic growth. But that alone was not enough, there was need for co- operation and gearing together of consumers, industry and labor aimed at efficiency.

"High wage costs, high manage- ment rosts. high advertising costs. high distribution costs are all very attractive to those receiving them," Mr. Howe said. "But high costs mean high prices and some industrial groups may even now be threatening to price themselves out of the market."

To Start Paying Back Compulsoly Savings Taxes

(By Jack Williams, Canadian Press Staff Writer)

OTTAWA, Oct. 29—-tCP)—Cun- adian income taxpayers are due to get 060300.000 back shortly, but it was paid so long ago that prob- ably a lot of them have forgotten about it.

In 1942 the government llltro- duced a compulsory savings plan as part of the income tax set-up. The plan continued until mid- 194-4. Altogether individual income taxpayers were compelled to lend the government about 9260-0004100 and $50.000.000 was for the 1942 msessment.

They are scheduled to get that i042 assessment back by March 31. 1048, with two per cent interest. Their compulsory savings in the 1943 assessment-which amounted to about $ll5.000.0tl0—wi1i oc re- payable a year later and the i944

assessment. which was for only half a year—-$05.000,000—a year after that.

The plan was introduced by the government to bolster the lending scheme, necessary to finance tile heavy war expenditures. and to drain off excess income which would have had an inflationary tendency dllflfflil the war. Prater..- ably by the time the money ll re- paid consumer gooda will be in a fair supply situation and the in- flationary tendency will not be as great,
