Subscriptions '$2.00 Per X: KITCHENER CHOIR PROVES EXCELLENT The Orpheus Male Choir. brought '.here erefrorn Kitchener b Y the Chamber •of Commerce for the Fall Fair Con- •cert and who stayed over to give a Sacred Concert on Sunday afternoon, delighted both Saturday evening and -.Sunday audiences with a variety of .:appealing vocal and _ instrumental • numbers not soon to be .forgotten. The Saturday night attendance was .a disappointment to those who spoil .sored the .prograrnrne. The small ad- mission fee was expected to bring out .a large crowd under any circum .stances, but apparently a Saturday .night Fall Fair Concert needs more !boosting than was given to it, While the attendance was fair the small charge did not turn in sufficient rev- enue to meet expenses so part of the returns from the Sunday silver, col- • lection had to be used. However, those who decided not to attend the concerts have reason to be even more disappointed. To -day en every hand high praises are be- ing spoken abotft both performances. From the very first the choir walked right into the hearts of their listen- ers and thrilled the audience .with •their fine expression and rendition of ;the numbers they sang. Soloists and 'Quartettes received many encores, to say nothing of the splendid reception :given Mr. Ott, the Xylophone Soloist of the Waterloo Band and the Misses Pleeinan, lady accompanists and vio- linists. The Town Hall was packed Sun - clay afternobn and as on the previous evening the audience was generously n•esponsive and appreciative applause 'was not withheld. Already the ques- tion is being asked "When can we :get them back?" and such remarks as "They'll get packed houses the next time" are frequent. Conductor R. A. MacGillivray an- nounced each number before it was rendered often giving a special des- cription in connection therewith. His \''remarks added much to the interest cif the programme. He thanked the 'people of Wingham for their kind- ness and said that it had been a great pleasure for the choir to bring to this district its service of song, both eija -scred and secular. :The Chairman, Mr. E. S. Copeland, -expressed the feeling of the audience when he told the choir that it was a splendid spectacle to see thirty peo- ple who because of their love for music and their willingness to be of 'service to others unselfishly gave up -their Thanksgiving week -end in or- der that we might be entertained by their talent. He mentioned partiou- larly the fact that the choir only re- ceived $50.00 for all their services liere, barely expense money for trans- portation and that as individuals they received no remuneration except the joy of their work. A feature of their visit here was their generosity in ser- vice. Not only did they provide the Iwo concerts which were so much en- joyed, but the churches also received generously of their music in the mor- ning services. The Elgar Quartette that so delights all music lovers sang at the Hospital on Sunday afternoon while the Sunday Schools wire aided by others and all these extras were (Continued on page Five) COUNTY PUBLIC SPEAKING CONTEST The Fourth Annual Public Speak mg Contest will be held in the audi- toriuni of the Clinton Collegiate In- stitute on Saturday, October 24th at 1.30 p.m. This contest is being held in con- junction with the annual convention 'of the Huron County Educational As- sociation of Trustees and Ratepayers, for which an interesting programme has been arranged.

CO-OPERATES WITH FAIR BOARD FOR BANQUET The Wingham Chamber of Com- merce, in co-operation with the Fair Board, held a banquet in honor of the guest speaker of the day, Dr. G. I. Christie, President of the Ontario Ag- ricultural College, Guelph, a delega- tion of which met Dr. Christie at Bluevale and escorted him into town and down to the show grounds. The ladies of the Women's Institute had a special table arranged to accommo- date 30 guests. A. J. Walker was luncheon chairman and called upon the following Hien for a few remarks, Reeve McKibbon; I Wright, one of the township reeves; Chas. Robert- son, M,L.A., Ian McLeod, Dist, Re- presentative; John Joynt, Lucknow; J. Laithwaite, Goderich; H. Camp- bell; E. S. Copeland, Wingham, the latter being President of the Cham- ber of Commerce, Dr. R. C. Red- mond of town, introduced the speak- er, Dr, Christie. Dr. Christie in opening his address, expressed his appreciation of being able to come to Wingham for the Fall Fair which he regarded as a real pleasure. He thought that a large share of our trouble in these times of depression was that we lacked co- operation. Just because there was depression it did not mean ruin. There were too many who could not stand distress, and it was the people with the backbone today who were. forging ahead, and that right now, was the time for us to figure this out, declared the speaker, also there was too much -talk of international trou- ble, which was a,sad state of affairs. A lot of the fairs had fallen down, but what he had seen of Wingham was up to the standard. There had been some talk of the withdrawal of the government funds froin the fair boards, but he was not prepared to say whether this was correct or not. Dr. Christie stated that there was too much spread between the farmer and the consumer. For the return of business there must- bd to -operation with agricultural' boai'ds,.:nt'order that: they might have a re rsotieble inerket place for their p'rodcts, Following. Dr,. Christie's address, the chairman, Iver, Walker, expressed his a ply recia- tion to all those who had`assisted. .6 TREBLES TOURNEY ON THANKSGIVING With the bright; sunshine that pre- vailed for Thahksgiving, it again brought the bowling enthusiasts into action, when' the tWingham Bowling Club held. an Irish Treble Tourna- ment, with eight local and four out- side rinks. •Walkerton and Lucknow each sent onerink and there were two from Goderich.

Inspector Field then named the fol- lowing committees: Nominating Committee: Miss Viola Fraser, Miss Agnes Mahood, Miss Minnie Wheatley. Resolution Com- mittee: Mr. Peter Moffat, Miss Edna Jamieson, Mrs. Aitken, Management• Committee: President and Vice -Presi- dent of 1931-32, Staff of Brussels Public School, Miss Christena Dick- son,. Mr. Kenneth Edgar. Mr. Jack Edgar, Brussels, delegate to the Ontario Educational Associa- tion from the Institute, gave the tea- chers an account of some of the pro- ceedings of that body at their Easter sessions. He suggested that owing to the size of the Association it might be in the interests of the Institute to send two delegates instead of one, as it is impossible' for one to attend all the sessions whoseproceedings might be of value to the teachers of the Inspectorate. •The discussion of "Discipline in and around the School" was led by A. L. Posliff, Principal of Wingham Public School. He stressed the importance of Discipline in :building character. The home is the place for discipline to begin and the teachers' difficulties in this direction are greatly increased when the home neglects or fails in this important regard. He would make good discipline the reason for reward, rather than that bad behavior should be the reason for punishment. He deplored the lack of courtesy of- ten displayed by the youth of today, and attributed it to lack of proper discipline in home and school. He gave a short account of his methods of dealing with some difficulties com- ing up in the common round of his daily duties, Pupils of Miss Cudmore and Miss Courtice of the Clinton Public School staff under the direction of Professor Anderton, enlivened the morning ses- sion, and the work of these little ones received merited applause.

Wingham Loses to Walkerton On Tuesday evening the Wingham Lacrosse team journeyed to Walker- ton for a league game, and came out on the small end of a 7-1 score.
