The program was divided into sec­ tions made up of numbers from the beginners', elementary, junior and advanced classes, and generally speaking, the technique and shading were excellent. Sel­ ections chosen by violin en­ sembles, the first by elem entary and the second by advanced pupils, were very, well rendered.

There is a class hatred developing in this land, which, if not quickly stopped, m ust ere long break out in n o t and rebellion. We seem to be fa st losing that British sanity of outlook on which as a race we have always so pnded ou^r selves. Instead every new slogan, every new political or religi­ ous creed, every new fashion or fad is slavishly lollowed, providing there is enough ballyhoo connected w ith it. A s a nation w e appear to have reached a highly neurotic condition in which quiet thought is imlpossible.," Consequently we haye become daily the victims of every igiiorant tubthumper w.hp. addresses us over the radio or on th e platform', so long as he is glib and cocksure,'the latter th e .ch ie f characteristics, as ' always, of such persons. Tw>nty-five years ago their efforts would have been received with rotten eggs or laughter. Now they are regarded as the prophets o f th e age. All these things plus the efforts of certain am ongst us who; are deliber- ' ately, cold-bloodedly, and a se t purpose engaged in a cam­ paign of setting man againstm an is fa st "destroy mg our unity Side by side with this is a growing fear on the. part ot our governments. They hjave become literally afraid to rule. Difficult situations are no longer faced with the open eyed courage of our forefathers, which looked an evil square. in7the face and then acted swiftly. Today all is drift and procrastina­ tion or "passing the buck" o h ,to som ebody,else. Tbe p 'eat fear is of making martyrs. The men w ho made Canada knew th a t no evil m(ah ever became a m artyr, and, secure in that kriciwledge, put him into his grave or a pnson cell. Authority w as respected in those days, whereas how from their school­ days^ up Canadians have been taught to exploit their own ' likes and dislikes.
