(Fairmount School) Concert
The annual Christmas concert
Of SS 10 was held Thursday
evening, December 18, with an
overflow crowd in attendance,
The school was beautifully dec-
prated with a large tree and all
the' trimmings,
Miss Johnson and her 31 pupils
are again to be congratulated on
the excellence of their program
from the opening recitation and
chorus to the grand finale.
The audience was much im-
pressed by the rhythm band, the
rr:embers complete with visor
hats, composed of grades 1-5,
"Farewell to Uncle John", was
an excellent playlet starring Gary
Merner, Vicky Cluff and Jamie
Storey. The latter has added
at least two inches to his ears
and nose in the last year. Never
have such appendages been seen
before.
The nine very attractive young-
sters in grades 1-2, gave their
recitations with the aplomb of
seasoned troopers. Very special
mention is made of the school
choir, which showed skill and
harmony and was a delight to
hear. The neighbourhood should
be very proud of this group which
won third place at the festival
last year.
Misses Elaine, Marilyn and
Catherine Welsh favored with
piano solos. The Sailor's Horn-
pipe by the senior girls in navy
slacks and white blouses got a
deserved encore. The dialogues
"Uncle Jonas' Whiskers" and
"Disappointing Dinah" were 'very
amusing and well presented.
Bobby Cluff was a very con-
vincing buxom mammy. The
Hop -Scotch Polka was given with
great vigor by the senior girls.
Most amusing was the pantomine
skit, "Cat Pie", when a live cat
emerged 'after an emergency
operation,
Robert Welsh was the able
chairman for the evening and
Miss Johnson, the pianist.
Santa Claus arrived in spite of
the dearth of snow .and unloaded
the mountain of presents to
starry-eyed children.
The effective way the children
performed, especially the smaller
ons, assures the neighborhood of
as splendid concerts in the future
as in the past, given as good.
