L. Sherbondy's, CKNX Or The Advance-Times Wednesday, April 7th The Heintzman Concert Grand Piano will have a thorough work-out when Madame Lubka Kolessa, brill- iant internationally famous pianist, snakes her appearance at the Wingham Town Hall, Twice before when the concert grand was imported from Lon- donu it was used for accompaniments only and the audience had no oppor- tunity to hear the noble instrument in solo work. When Macjame Kolessa brings her remarkable talent to the keyboard, music lovers will hear the piano at its very best. Along with her Aimless technique, Madame Kolessa has all the artistry and fire of the true genius. The concert will be a rare treat. Plans For Next season The Wingham Concert Association announced that it will launch its cam- paign for members for next season immediately after the Kolessa Concert. Music lovers from nearby communities are invited to become members. No concerts will be booked during the snow and flood season so that out-of- town members need not fear that they will have to miss a concert on account of impassable roads. A Non-Profit Venture Concert members are assured of the best possible concerts for the lowest possible price. All monies received are used for concerts only and any surplus is carried over to the next season. The amount to be carried over this year will be approximately $50.00. Present members will be given the op- portunity of rejoining for next season and new members will be welcomed. The venture is a project of the Wing- ham Recreation Council and is under -the direction of Sam Burton. The annual meeting of District No. 4, of the Association of Assessing Offices, comprising the Counties of Grey, Bruce, Huron, Wellington, Duf- ferin and Perth met in the Wingham Town Hall on Thursday.

Filling and Raising Roadbed, Work of Replacing Bridge Commenced The C,N,R, bridge has been tempor- arily repaired and service was re- sumed on Tuesday, when the noon passenger train crossed enroute to Kincardine. This was the first train on that end of the line since a week ago Saturday. Later in the afternoon a freight also proceeded to Kincardine, Work is progressing on the C.P.R. line, The approach to the bridge has been raised and work has started on the first abutment, Trucks are draw- ing stone and gravel and filling and raising where it was washed out at the time. Street lights in town were turned on for the first time since the flood on Monday evening. The large transform- er had to be taken to Kitchener for drying and repairs. Howson's Flour Mill is expected to be in operation again today. The road- way is being filled in and repairs are progressing in their office. During the recent flood the resi- dents of Lower Wingham suffered a heavy loss. Of the nineteen homes in the flooded area, some lost practically all of their furniture, bedding and clothing, as well their homes being damaged, To even partially replace and repair it will mean a heavy fin- ancial burden on these unfortunate people. The, Wingham Lions Club believing that charity begins at home, are spon- soring a campaign to raise funds to partially offset some of this loss. Wingham and district have been al- ways generous in supporting those less fortunate, and we feel sure that this worthy cause will meet with a gener- ous response. Cash donations may be left at either Sherbondy's Coffee Shop, CKNX or The Advance-Times, Cheques may be mailed to Flood Relief, care of Wing- ham Lions Club. The campaign will be of short duration, concluding with a concert on Monday evening, April 5th, in the Town Hall. The admission will be 50c. Concert Will Be Broadcast An excellent concert has been ar- ranged featuring Roy L. Dedels, well- known Canadian tenor, of Kitchener, Those who heard Mr. Dedels at the United Church on Sunday morning or over the church broadcast were high in their praise, and are anxious to hear him again. This is the opportunity. To further assist in raising funds,CKNX will broadcast the concert from 8.30 to 10, and telephones will be installed in the Town Hall to receive contribu- tions, which will be announced from time to time over the air, To those from outside of Wingham who desire to attend the concert, mail orders with the money enclosed may be addressed to CKNX. Tickets for local sale may be purchased at Car- michael's Dry Goods Store. Dance Folleeve Concert Through the courtesy of the 21st.
