SEAFORTH HOME AND SCHOOL ,ASSOCIATION, From the latest number of The On- tario Home & School Review, we take the following:- Miss ollowing:Mass H R. Anderson, President of the Parent-Teacher ssociation of British Columbia, 1926-1928, Princi- pal of Lonsdale School, North Van- couver, B.C., says -"We wish our fellow workers its the East every joy and success in their field of labour and let us as a whole,radiate our joy. and success to the South, East and West .for citizenship is- no longer na- tional, blit international." And we have yet much' to do and more to overcome but no parent or. reacher cart enter into this great move- ment its the trite spirit of self giving without being. ,infinitely richer • in character and broader in vision, Mr. Loftus H. Reid, chairman of the Board of Education, Toronto, 1927-28, sayst-'!Personal observa- tion gained from close contact with thismovement for the last three years warrant my saving that it is deserv- ing of the commendation and sttp-, port of all who are interested in the welfare of our most important nation- al asset, the rising generation. SEAFORTH MINSTRELS WELL RECEIVED. The Goderich papers •referred to the perfortuaece of ithe ,Seeforth Minstrels at Goderich as follows: The Signal: The Seaforth 'nun- strels, who performed on Tuesday night were greeted by a fair audience'. but if the people of `Goderich had realized what a fine -program was to be put on the house would have been. crowded. Seaforth has always had a reputation for outstanding. musical talent, and with the excellent training of Mr. M. .R. Rennie for thin perform- ance they presented a program such an is rarely heard here. Solos, duets, quartettes, choruses -all were sung with fine tone and artistic finish, and an excellent nine -piece orchestra gave splendid assistance. It is impossible to give the program in detail, but two numbers may be mentioned as out- standingly good: The '" Soldiers' Chorus '(from Faust), and the solo "The Admiral's 'Broom," by ''Dot" Reid. Seeforth is to be congratulated upon being able to produce such a galaxy of talent as is gathered to- gether in this company. The Star: Those who heard the Seaforth Minstrels on Tuesday even- ing in the Opera House (and 11 was a Tull house) will agree that it was an excellent entertainment. Seaforth centainly seems to be blessed with a large number of first-class male sing- ers. The entertainment was put on .in Seaforth Thursday and Friday even- ings, May 40th and .Pith, by the Lions and Bowling Clubs of that town. Some of their jokes, as the:show.was given here, were given a local applica- tion and the audience appreciated the thrust in some of the good natured jokes. The oechestra of nine • pieces was very fine. ' HORSESHOE TOURNAMENT. ' :Seaforth .,Horseshoe Club held a tournament :Monday evening .at their grounds on"North .Main Street.
