in Building 2 on February 5. The staff and students co-operated in executing the plans designed by a special committee. The students ' major contribution to the tea was the selling of tickets, and class parties were organized to boost these sales. Others participated by setting up tables, decorating, serving, and selling in booths. Not to be overlooked was the support given by the people of the community, who made numberous home-cooking and other donations, in addition to attending the tea itself, Frith such community co-operation coupled with ye old L.S. spirit , it is no wonder that both the operetta, Alice In Wonderland , and the St. Valentine ' s Tea were so successful.

MUSICAL NOTES Choral activity during the school year 1952-53 has been noteworthy in both scope and achievement. The Senior Mixed Glee Club of forty voices attended the November 11th service in King Memorial Church, singing Vaughan Williams ' Let Us Now Praise Famous Men , and the Twenty-third Psalm, to the tune Crimond . The Senior Girls ' Glee Club, numbering fifty voices, presented a radio programme of carols in December, and led the school in a Candlelight Carol Service in King Memorial Church on December 23rd. A Male Ensemble made its first appear¬ ance in the traditional ceremony of The Boar ' s Head Carol. The winter term brought another radio assignment, for which the Grade 8 girls prepared folk songs as illustrative material on a Manitoba Schools broadcast. With the purpose of ensuring intensive choral training for all of the girls, Classroom Choirs from Grade 8 to 11 were entered in the Festival. At their initial appearance, the Grade 11 girls were awarded the top single mark, 88, of any Class¬ room Choir in the Festival. Three voluntary choirs were also organized, all in the Junior High; An S.A.B. choir. Girls Grades 7-9, and Girls Folk Song, Grades 7-9. The last named won a particularly fine adjudication, and the I.O.D.E. Trophy for their class. Meanwhile, the Male Ensemble rehearsed faithfully after hours, working on four-part Negro Spirituals, and won warm applause in three appearances; at a Home and School meeting, an Assembly, and a Senior High dance. Augmented by members of the staff, they indulged in barbershop harmony at the Graduation Banquet. The Coronation of Elizabeth 11 was marked by a brief ceremony in the school auditorium on June 1. The Junior High S.A.B. Choir and the Senior High Graduation Choir performed at that time, and at the Grade 9 Closing Exercises and Senior High Graduation respectively. Mrs. Thatcher and Mr. Harrison, the music teachers, have intimated to the editor their pleasure in the keen interest shown by so many of the students in the development and presentation of fine choral music at Lord Selkirk. SCHOOL PROJECTS ' Two large and colourful projects were undertaken this term by the L.S. staff and student body to raise money to meet varied school requirements. The first of these projects, an operetta called Alice In Wonderland , under the direction of Miss Stech and Mr. Werier, was p resented by the elementary school from December 17 to 19. The rehearsals for Alice In Wonderland will remain a memorable experience. While the choir chorused in Room 9, the dramatics progressed in Room 16, and the dances were created in the lower hall of Building 1. Some workshop, was it not? It may be of interest to you to know that the wee Grade 4 ' s enacted the Dwarfs; the Grade 5 ' s played the Ladies and Gentlmen of the court, as well as the inimitable Cards; and the Cast and Chorus were assembled from the two Grade 6 rooms. The children seemed to enjoy all aspects of the production. However, the biggest thrill was derived from the theatrical make-up which added the final touch to enhance characterization, mood, and interpretation. Lord Selkirk ' s second big event and project was the St. Valentine ' s Tea, held 69 '
