LET ' S MAKE M OPERA A S LORD SELKIRK School’s operetta cast was an alternating body, Cast II players appeared in the school matinee performance, Wednesday, Feb. 17th, and two evening performances, Feb. 18th and the closing night, Feb. 20th. In early rehearsals, both casts rehearsed together, but later separated for practises. This operetta allows for a great number of students participating in an unlimited number of jobs or special roles in the actual production “Let’s Make An Opera” is part play, part opera. The first two acts show in dramatic form how the opera comes into being. The final act presents the opera itself. For the first time Lord Selkirk’s Junior High department had a chance to appear in a Senior High production. These younger ones added colour and humour to “Let’s Make An Opera”, as the composer, Benjamin Britten intended. We, the students owe a great deal to the music and dramatic directors who did a very fine piece of work, to the students who lent their talents to leading roles, to the committees such as stage, lighting, properties, costumes, ushers, ticket sales, complimentary tickets, publicity, programmes, dressing rooms, the business manager, and the treasurer; to the Senior High Chorus who after many grueling rehearsals reached perfection, and who prodded on bashful audience participants. With¬ out these wonderful workers, we could not have achieved the success we enjoyed. The year 1954, will always be remembered as a very successful year. Although we will have many and different memories, we will not forget for some time, the momentous occasion when Lord Selkirk Junior and Senior High, became one, and produced “Let’s Make An Opera.” 41

Law. Our Senior and Junior High girls have done an admirable job working at the Coffee Corner in Children’s Hospital on Saturdays. Several individual rooms contributed to the Red Cross in such ways as sending a hamper of food to a needy family, singing carols, and delivering books to the Deer Lodge Hospital. A group of students from grades seven, eight, nine, and ten, after presenting a cheque to a group of women at the Blind Institute to help in sewing for the needy blind were taken on a tour and shown how the blind work. A large candy and book sale netted $90.00. This sum was contributed to help build a wing of the new Child¬ ren’s Hospital.

SENIOR GLEE ELUH •TTHE SENIOR GLEE CLUB aroused very keen interest this year, with almost half the student body com¬ peting for membership. By their admirable decorum, the Glee Club set the tone for a meaningful Remembrance Day Service. They sang Walford Davis’ “The Souls of the Righteous,” with obligato by Donna Moore and Margaret Shultz; and “Requiem”, a beautiful setting of Robert Louis Stevenson’s poem. The Graduation music was planned to include un¬ usually fine hymns: Parry’s “Jerusalem” as the pro¬ cessional, “Be Then My Vision”, from the Scottish Psaltery; William Byrd’s three-part canon, “Non Nobis Domine”, “Go Forth with God!” with descant, by Martin Shaw; and a three-part girls’ chorus, “Sweet Day,” by Handel. 40
