MIL MACKIN.V0.N"5 ADDRESS

"The prophecy of Sir Wilfrid Laurier that the Twentieth Cent- ury belongs to Canada'. is bellll fulfilled before our eyes", the

speaker said as he described how

Mr. J. P. Nicholson ”this great giant country, stirrins and throbbing with new industry. is reaching new goals with amazing rapidity." Hon. Dougalcl MacKln- non said in his address.

”We have seen the Northland and its riches cracked open by the daring of Canadian flyers, ywho transported freight to mining areas." he continued. "We have seen Labrador, once believed to be a barren waste land. become one of the greatest store houses of iron ore in the Universe. Great mining developments are yielding sliver. copper, gold and that most precious of all minerals, uranium. all due to the enterprise of Canadian pion- eers and Canadian initiative."

"But let us not glory too much in our own greatness lest we forget that Providence has been kind to us and has giien us great riches: that our pioneer forefathers carved a civilization out of the wilderness; and that we inherited laws and Parliamentary Institutions that can withstand all the 'rsms' with which the world is troubled. Let us be thankful that our institutions are so strong and our people so well informed and stable: that Com- munism. with its false doctrines, can make no impression upon the democratic system under which we have advanced from small begin- nings to the point where. as a nat- ion. we are a potent factor in world policy. Let us be thankful that we yield far greater influence in the councils of the nations than per- haps our number warrants.

”We are not living in an after- glow, but looking far ahead to the splendour of a still more brilliant day," the speaker continued. "That future is yours. gentlemen, you who are taking an interest in the pol- itical and industrial development of this country."

PROVINCIAL PROGRESS

Touching on the "steady and en- couraging" progress in this Prov- ince. Mr. MacKinnon paid tribute to Premier Matheson for enacting legislation of far reaching im.poi't- aiice" The electrification of rural area.. will do much to improve liv- ing standards." he said: "and the Program of improved highways has as it's objective-that the people shall be served free from favorit- ism."

"I have no doubt that some among you here tonight, perhaipa 800!H!!' than you realize. will take your place in the ranks of those whose responsibility it will be to guide the destination of our country." he added. "Don't think for one moment that the battles are all won. or that the forces that challenge democracy are dead and buried. The forces of reaction and privilege are not even dormant. they are just biding their time; and a greater threat emerges 1:-om the opposite extreme. the threat of Communism which is. perhaps, the more sinister force for it not only "litres to the physical domination. but to tho mastery of the mind gnd spirit."

"I. along with many moro of my generation. who bore the brunt of battle over the past nusnbeer of years must. soon pass on the torch to younger hands. We pass it with confidence to you with the assur- lnce l-hll you will ever hold it high and hold true to the principles that guarded your liberties over the years."

Following the add:-en, tha speak. er. who had been 'ntiroduoed by Mrs. G. 5. Inmm. president of the Provincial Women's Liberal Asaocl. such, was thanked by president Nicholson for the "thought; his ex. cellent speech left with his lieu-.

Music Festival Syllabus

A major change in this year's P. E. I. Music Festival syllabus isthat finals will be held at both Char- lottetown and Summersde in classes enumerated in Regulation No. 34, according to Mrs. J. L. B. Anderson. convener of the Syllabus Commit- tee. some of these classes had prev- iously been heard as preliminaries. The tenth anniversary qyllabua is now available.

This syllabus has been entirely compiled. with much hard work by the syllabus committee and is I credit to their efforts. Many of the test pieces will be found to be those used in previous years but are new to than now entering in the various age groups. This is for economy. as much music purchased in previous years has been so- cumulating unused and unsold.

Anyone studying the syllabus closely will note the ornmiuion of a few classes from that of last,year. These are the ones where the com- mittee felt there was repetition and considered it in the best in- terests of all to make the change. Another time-saving device is the dropping of the second test piece in those classes which had both (a) and (bi selections.

since the syllabus was published at least two of the test pieces not for certain classes have been found to be out of print and not obtain- able. This will necessitate the sol- ection of new ones which will be done as soon as possible and an- nounced through the press.

Classical Music Featured

Music lovers were treated to a

magnificent concert last night in tin:

Prince of Wales College ball by two outstanding artktl.Miu'Betty- Jean Hagen, violinist. and Mr. Boris Roubakine. pianist. who ap- peared in the P.W.C. Concert Ber- iea in a program which measured up to the highest claslicai stand- ai-ds. yet was rich in emotional appeal and in warmth and variety of treatment.

If for nothing else. the concert would be memorable for its find performance of the Kreutser Bou- ata. Opus (7. by Beethoven This was the first occasion on which this -urpuaingly beautiful work has been. played here. at least in recent years, although it is well known from phonograph record- ings. But no recording can do it justice to music of this kind. Last nlght it came palpitatingly to life. breaking through its tradi- tional lath century pattern and reaching out to the audience in all the magic of its tender and heroic lines.

Especially to be commended was the lovely interpretation given by both artists of the Andanio move- ment, which with its variations. four in number, forms the core of the work. Here violin and piano successively take the lead. em- broiderinz each in its own way the delicato traceries of the theme. and uniting at the end in wonderful . cumulative cadences.

The program opened with two selections from Mozart. Adagio in E. Major (K. 281) Ind Rondo in C Major (K373). The remaining numbers included Hungarian Folk Tunes, by Bartok; Liebesleii by Fritz Kreisler; and Polonaisee in D Major. by Wienlakwskl. Miss Hagen showed a thorough msstory of her instrument, as did Mr. Roubakina in the accompanying parts.

In addition, Mr, Roubaklne gave several piano solos, including Mo- ment Musical.by Schubert; Waltz- llng. by John Weinzwelg; Im;

promptu, by Faure. and L'Isle Joyeuse, by Debussy. In remonso to continued ap-

plause. encore numbers were add- ed. making up one of the most richly rewarding musical programs
