At Sunday mornirfg's Thanksgiving Service at North St: United Church ,.the newly formed "Junior Choir" under the ,direction of Mrs. Erla Stewart, also a newcomer to our town this summer, sang their number, "Thank you, Thank you, Lord' with "excep- tionally fine professional enun- ciation and inflection, - ex- tremely well delivered. Miss Olive Miller of Toronto, a well trained soloist and talented musician, says she was greatly- impressed by the groups', performance. Given the encouragement of adequate publicity this group t4'Pould be developed for the highest calibre special .occasions, also for television.,and radio perfor- mances. These young ,peoplie have great potential,' 'says Miss. Miller, and with two such fine musicians as Mrs. Stewart and Lorne Dotterer ;(who had ac- companied they group on the pipe organ), they should go far. I had just met Miss Miller 'recently` and was greatly im- pressed by this•lovely.bundle-of energy. Already she has given of her time to the local hospital and the Huron County- Jail project and others. She is very interested in crafts and especially music, and musical instruments and is happy to. be making her home here. I feel we will be fortunate to know Miss Miller better and trust she also grows to love our Prettiest Little Town.

"There are so many arts and crafts exhibits going on• all around us - but no ART - or FINE ART exhibits, only.
