16 SAMARA Music Notes The music classes this year were still under the valiant guidance and directorship of Mr. MacTavish. He has taken great pains to at- tempt to teach our aspiring musicians. A great deal of interest has been shown by the younger girls and everyone has been doing good work. Margaret Boehm should be given a note of praise for the playing of the morning hymns at Prayers. The junior and senior choirs add colour and interest to our morning devotional period, and once a week the choirs render very beautiful selections. Who knows, there might be among us an- other Beethoven or Lily Pons! The Bazaar All that was left Were empty stalls Flag-lined walls. Paper littered halls, Marianne and me. The first day of school We all were warned Of the momentous decision,— A bazaar was in store! With pomp and precision The Seniors collected; The bonnets and booties With great care selected. The great day arrived, And Elmwood with pride, Would show its display Of knitting and sewing, Of books, and the works Of the cleverest cooks. But before they could buy, Our visitors eyed A parade of bright costumes From countries afar; And a number of dances Which left them in trances! And pauses were filled With music that thrilled. With thoughts for their tummies They went quick like bunnies Straight to the tea-room Where, with grace and with haste We filled them, with cooking. We hope, to their taste. Then on to the buying: With parcels for tying. They emptied their purses For the good of the cause. T ' was a day of success — That we both must confess But we ' d like you to know That . . . All that was left Were empty stalls. Flag-lined walls. Paper-littered halls, Adarianne and me. Jennifer Woollcombe— Ke er Marianne Lovink— Fry Editor ' s Note: The Bazaar was for the save the children fund, and nearly one thou- sand dollars was raised. The House Collections This year the House Collections were ar- ranged a little differently than usual; that is, in two parts. The first part was held on the morning of the Bazaar and consisted of books, jig-saw puzzles, ornaments and many beautiful knitted articles. The three houses. Nightingale, Keller, and Fry all had excellent displays, but Nightingale ' s was judged the best. Almost all the articles were sold. The second part of the House Collections was held just before Christmas and was made up of usable clothing and afghans that were worked upon very hard. These were well dis- played and filled many cartons which were sent to local charities. In spite of the tough competition. Nightingale again came out on top.
