The School Qrchestra The leader of our eight-piece orch- estra., K. Hutchison, pianist, is equalled by few and his long experience in orch- estra work has contributed much to the orc-hestra's success. Our assistant pian- ist, Miss Henderson, is also a skilled player. Kaiser. Silver and Card at the violin draw the bow in first-class style. while Fitt and Henderson perform at their saxaphones and make real music. At the cornet we have a. talented play- er in J. Falconbridge, while Lalfon- taine performs at the drums. The organization of the Orchestra was due mainly to the efforts of a com- mittee of four Consisting of Miss R. Humphries, Miss Laughlin. L. Silver and W. Buchanan, who were confront- ed by many difliculties which they have eventually overcome. Each individual member is a first- class musician, but a good orchestra can result only from continued prac- tice together. The members have been kind enough to give considerable of their time and we are sure their music is appreciated by all. W. Buchanan. .. 2 fl WW . , 1 ll .
