LEAVE WINDOW OPEN
When parking for more than
a few minutes with the car en-
gine running, a window should
be opened for several inches to
prevent an accumulation of
carbon monoxide. The ventil-
ator in the front of the ear
should be closed when driving
bumper to bumper in heavy
traffic to escape fumes from
the car ahead.

Music WWII Live Forever
BY JOYCE PROCTER, ).3A
Music is a universal lan-
guage. All mankind should
strive to broaden the extent of
his knowledge and a musical
education is one of the finer
levels of this aspect which all
should seek to acquire. Music
is here for the taking so we
should not pass it by, letting it
stand untouched, There is a
type of music to suit every per
son and every occasion.
Music has lived and will
live forever. The oldest re-
cords of music are those of the
Ancient Egyptians who devised
crude drums, harps and flutes
about the year 4000 B.C. The
first system of notation was pro-
duced by the Greeks. Christi-
anity brought in the next epoch

of music - chants and church
canticles. Celts and Saxons
carried their music on their
travels in their ballads and min-
strel songs. In the sixteenth
century, Martin Luther com-
posed many beautiful chorales.
Shortly after, opera came forth
from Monteverde. From the
seventeenth century on we re-
member German names like
Handel, Mozart and Beethoven,
and Russians, Rubinstein and
Tschaikowsky. These men
made history and laid the foun-
dation upon which our musical
culture was built.
Today there is a great di-
versity of musical arrangement.
Each country has its own na-
tional anthems and its own folk
songs. There are grand orches-
tral arrangements for the sym-
phony lovers, jazz and ragtime
bands for the younger set, cho-
ral works for school and church
choir participants, and popular
ditties for everyone.
Truly, we live in a music-
al environment. Every town,
village, and community boasts
a music teacher - piano, vocal,
or otherwise. Many commu-
nities are proud to claim a
brass band, pipe band or orches-
tra. Most churches welcome
all available talent to their
choirs. Music is taught in el-
ementary and secondary schools
and the music festivals rouse
participation and competition
in musical events. Why then
are there not more people in-
terested in the growth of mu-
sical careers, and willing to
support their stand? If a young
child shows any sign of talent
in this field he should be intro-
duced to music. There are
many outlets for this natural
instinct. But many parents
keep putting off music lessons
because they begrudge the cost
or think that the many hours of
practice may be painful to the
child.
Nevertheless, these lessons
will be greatly appreciated in
the child's later life. A music-
al education develops in a per-
son a feeling of self-confidence
and an ability to get along with
others. If one can play an in-
strument, chances are that he
will be a band member, taking
part in recitals or parades. If
he sings, a choir will welcome
his voice. These activities
give one a reason for doing his
best to please himself and
others. A person with many ta-
lents is admired and a musical
talent heads the list to be ad-
mired. A piano player can be
the life of a party simply by
sitting down at the piano and
playing old favorites for his
friends. Many young people
are church organists and choir
AYPA Plans
December
Activities
St. Paul's A.Y. P. A. met
Sunday evening in the parish
room to plan December activ-
ities. Dave Wenger conducted
the opening devotions and
chaired the meeting.
Three or four cars of young
people from here will attend
the deanery car rally iu.Clinton
on Saturday. The following
Saturday night members of St.
Paul's A. Y.P. A. will sell
subscriptions for the Advanee-
Tirrtes with the commissions
toeing put into the treasury.
They will return to the church
for a social tline afterward.
The meeting on Sunday,
December 31i w111 he a worship
service with Rev. C. F. John-
son as speaker. A toboggan
part and dance will he held
during the Christmas holidays.
Mary Ahara, Diane Grove, 11!11
f)eneau and David Wenger were
appointed to plan the event.
Following the meeting the

ger home lot a social time.
leaders and in this way develop
qualities of leadership. Others
play in dance bands and earn
extra pocket money for them-
selves, often enough to pay
their own way through college.
Whereverone goes, his music
will go with him.
Music can be a career or a
pastime and one to be proud of.
Many men have made music
their life work and as a result
have made themselves wealthy
and others richer from the en-
joyment they receive from
them. Present day examples
are Van Cliburn, a famous
concert pianist and the "Beetles"
"pop singers", who are so dear
to the hearts of many screaming
teen-agers. A musician's
leisure time need never be dul-
led by lack of something to do.
Sitting down at the piano can
be the most relaxing pastime
to soothe the edgy nerves of a
hard day at work or school.
Spending an evening at a con-
cert of organ preludes or a re-
cital of some noted choral
group can also be relaxing as
well as entertaining and edu-
cational.
What would Christmas be
without Handel's Messiah float-
ing through a chathedral win-
dow or Easter without the glad
"Alleluias" ringing from the
choir loft? Would dances, par-
ties or for that matter, any
social gathering, be the same
without the appropriate music?
Indeed, music is a way of life.
GIVING PROPER CREDIT
A group of children were
putting on a one -act play in the
back yard. A merchant had
helped with some items for the
stage setting. The audience
eagerly awaited the opening of
the curtains. As they were part-
ed a child actor rushed forward
and exclaimed, "Stop... we
forgot the commercial!"
200 WLU Students
Receive Awards
Bursaries, prizes and schol-
arships were presented to 200
students at Waterloo Lutheran
University Thursday night. The
entrance and undergraduate
awards were presented at a
special assembly in the univer-
sity lecture theatre.
Linda Kathleen Coultes of
Belgrave was one of the 45 stu-
dents to receive Dominion -Pro-
vincial bursaries. She was also
awarded an Atkinson Charitable
Foundation bursary. Murray G.
Hunter of Lucknow received an
Atkinson Charitable Foundation
In -Course bursary.
Waterloo Lutheran Univer-
sity is a fully -accredited liber-
al
iberal arts institution sponsored by
the Lutheran Church in America
for students of all races and re-
ligious beliefs. It receives no
provincial support and is cur-
rently conducting a $2,100,000
campaign for funds to build a
new library and a science and
business administration build-
ing.
Activities
Exams are over and activ-
ities are beginning again,
These may well be studying for
Easter exams, but there are
others.
Curling is starting this week
and I hope to have some in-
formation on the schedule for
next week's column.
There will be a literary
meeting in the near future.
The students are asked to be
thinking of things for the pro-
gram. If any student has some-
thing to contribute, it is hoped
that he or she will make it
known to the class represent-
ative. These meetings can not
be a success if the students don't
co-operate.
At a meeting of the Student
Council it was decided that
there would be a Christmas
dance, sponsored by the Student
Council. The arrangements
have not been made final but
this is one of the biggest dances
of the year and with the co-op-
eration of the students, it can
be a "ball".
On Tuesday at 3 o'clock an
assembly was held at which the
awards from last year were giv-
en out. The students who a-
chieved 75% in the June exams
of last year's grades 9 to 12
were given bars, and the other
awards were given to those de-
serving them.
Several parents attended this
assembly as well as the student
body.
