Rural Pupils Take
County:Honours
Highlighting the ninth annual
Huron County Music Festival,
held in North St. United Church,
Goderich, last week, was the
fine work of the rural school
pupils of this district.
The adjudicators — , Frank W.
Holton, director of music for
Brantford schools, and Clifford
Poole, director of piano depart-
ment, Western Conservatory of
Music, London, — were very
enthusiastic concerning the pro-
gress they had made.
Close competition was the rule
in the classes for rural schools.
Mr., Holton complimented some
classes on the attention they had
given to correcting arty' cru. ation
and tone, which he had criticized
adversely during earlier adjudi-
cations.
Mr. Holton said he never bed
had an anxious moment and the
adjudicating had been a delight-
ful experience during his three
days' stay in Goderich. "Your
work is good and your people
listen." There was never any
trace of poor sportsmanship in
the festival.
Mrs. E. H. Jessop, president,
expressed appreciation to Mr.
Holton.
The festival adjudication was
concluded Thursday night. Dur-
ing the four days it was con-
ducted with clock -work precis-
ion, due largely to the admin-
istrative skill of the festival
president, Mrs. E. H. Jessop, and
her executive. The adjudication
by Mr. Holton was pleasing in
constructive criticism, which at
times, was given with refreshing
hu m o r, especially with the
children.
Delightful Concert
A concert was presented Friday
night when the presentations of
scholarships, rose bowls, gold
watches and other prizes were
made. The program was present-
ed by the winners of these by
performing their test pieces.
Mrs. E. H. Jessop, festival presi-
dent, was presented with a gift
in recognition of her efforts in
making the festival a success.
In reply she paid tribute to
other members of the executive
who had assisted. They were:
Mrs. C. Edward, Miss Virginia
Baechler, J. A. Snider, George
Buchanan, Miss Helen Videan,
Miss Marie Smibert, and Com
mittee Conveners Miss Josie
Saunders, W. Charles Breckow

THE SOURCE OF
Here is a typical bank manager --
43, married, with a growing
family. He is active in
community affairs. When he
joined the bank as a junior, he
was 17, just out of high school. He soon
moved up. By his late twenties he was
accountant- in his branch.
He worked hard. All the time he was learning
about banking, about Canada, too, in
various branches, different areas ..:learning
to know people —their hopes, fears, problems
—the importance of the human factor.
At 36 he was branch manager. Now he has
another, larger branch. And his way to
advancement is still open. His general
manager started as a junior, too ... and
carried with him to the top the business
experience and human understanding
gained along the way.
