Smith, a valued matron at the School for many years who died just before Christmas. The Confirmation on Saturday, March 26. called for special music among which was the anthem Prevent Us O Lord by Herbert Brewer. The following morning a Choral Communion was held so that the candidates might receive the first communion and many of their parents received with them.

Their best was Well worth listening to, especially in the Twenty-Third Psalm set to a chant by Walford-Davies and also in Tschai- kowsky's anthem O Blessed And Ever Gracious Lord . We should like to say how grateful we are to the
