CHORAL SOCIETY'S SUCCESS BRIiNGS COAI- DIENT FROill ALL PARTS OF IVORLD The triumph of the West Van- couver choir in winning the blue ribbon of the B. C. Slusical Fes- tival has inspired newspaper comment in different parts of the globe. In these articles nat- urally the talent of the leader, Professor James M. Morgan, has evoked much personal comment. Mr. Morgan is recognised as one of the leading teachers of class singing on this continent and naturally we in AVest Vancouver feel proud of having him live in our midst. The following excerpts are taken from different publica- tions, but we understand that many messages of congratula- tions and felicitations have been received by Mr. Morgan person- ally. Nanaimo Herald:-- Messrs. Tripp and Holroyd Paul were frequent visitors to Nanaimo in those days and some of their Nanaimo pupils are spread all over the Pacific Coast. Before them and after them looms the figure of Mr. J. M. Morgan an inspired conductor of male voice choirs and, a distinguished lead- er of ladies and mixed voice choirs. His many friends in Na- naimo were pleased indeed, to learn that his choir carried off premier honors in the recent Musical Festival." The Druid, Pittsburg, U.S.A.-- "In the large mixed choral competitions West Vancouver under the direction of Professor James M. Morgan conquered a worthy rival who held the trophy last year. It was a memorable performance. We were delight- ed to see Mr. Morgan win and do it without the shadow of a doubt. He brought the status of the choir to an enviable height..... Mr. Morgan was one of the fore- most conductors in South Wales having conducted the well known Resolver hlale Voice Choir which emerged triumphant in many large competitions in the old land." 31iss Annie Ridley of Caulfeild spe»t a short holiday recently visiti»g i» the city.

INDU A~OU, 1926 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ CONSTQUCTION +to a&at.r x r r.x I927 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ 1 ~ I ~ The producer's average weekly wage in British Columbia is $28.39... 49% higher than the rest of Canada. In 1926 seventeen industries increased weekly wages by $ 12.95! hctually in ten years our annual payroll has grown from 78 million dollars to 175 million dollars... the greatest ad- vance by far of any province during that period. This, of course, does not include agricultural workers, professionals, clerks, and others. British Columbia's gross pay- roll is estimated at 210 million dollars! Life is more enjoyable... we have more time to en joy the year 'round pleasures and recreations at our doors, while our general standard of living is very much higher. Tazation during the last four years has been reduced by two and a half milliondollars... concrete evidence of our province's sound financial condition. Construction, that outward evidence of the faith we have in our province, has played a large part in the wage situation. In ten years British Columbia's construc- tion activity has gone up ten times. In 1916 it involved only $2,800,000... for ten months in 1927 it amounted to $27,277,000l This activity has an immediate effecf on current conditions. Cash funds are dis- bursed for materials, employment is good... wages fairly steady... money in circula tion. It increases the capital investment in our province. hnd there can be no surer indication of future progress than when producing machinery increases... a sign of growing markets... a sign that British Columbia products are winning a place in the markets of the world. ~ Read throe announccmcnto dnd understand'i your Pnefncc' ~'royrcgo...clip them out and ocnd thcrn to fricndo.
