ed to Mr.Lawson, Margaret Lyons and Lynn Char- lesworth for their work at the two pianos. Miss Campbell also comes in for thanks for her work with the dancers. The gypsy dancing was both colorful and enjoyable. The ball room scene made a very lovely picture with the girls’ evening gowns and the boys’ colorful uniforms. They danced like true Lords and Ladies. Special thanks is given to Miss Crookshanks for her wonderful work with the singers and choruses. Under her direction the operetta was a very real success. On the business end of the Opera, we were successful.There was a total intake of $626.15 on ticket sales. In the Junior High, Boom 12 took top honors, selling to the amount of $68.25. Room 27 came second with $54.00, and Boom 22 third with $50.00. In the Elementary grades - Boom 15 took first place with $47.75 We want to thank all the pupils and teach¬ ers who worked behind stage with make-up, cost¬ umes, lighting, and those who worked to keep people at the right place at the right time. Their help went a long way in making the opera a success. This project was a fine example of co¬ operation on the part of the whole school. It is hoped that it won’t be ten years before Earl Grey again produce an opera. THE FESTIVAL There were no Junior High choirs from Earl Grey entered in the Festival this year,because of the Opera. However, two of the Elementary choirs were entered and did very well. The Grades 1 and 2 Class-room Choir, under the direction of Mrs.D.Rennie, won the Handel Shield with their performance of ’The Happy Child’ by Margaret Lyell, and ' There Was an Old Woman’ arranged by Herbert Wiseman. They received marks of 80 and 81, a total of 161 from adjudicator Alex Bedshaw. They sang again for the Annie Pullar Trophy, but did not suc¬ ceed in getting it. In the class for Grades 2 and 3 Class-room choirs, Room 2, under the Mrs.Rennie, placed seconds in the competition for the Purcell Shield. They sang .’Hansel and Gretel ' ,a German folk-song, and ’A Spanish Rhyme’ by E.J.Staple- ton receiving marks of 79 and 82, a total of 161, from Mrs.Redshaw. Congratulations for work well done. • THE ORCHESTRA This year the school ensemble won both high praise and hig h marks at the festival. Under the direction of Miss Frances Port, they won first place in this class. Mr.Ronald Biggs the adjudicator, said: ' This performance gave me enormous pleasure.
