The music of Chapman's Or­ chestra left nothing to be de­ sired. Thanks are due to Mrs. Mast- erman, convener and her ener­ getic committee, other members of the choir, who by their great efforts assured the success St proved. This followed the signal suc­ cess at the Wesley Church con­ cert on Sunday, February 20th, which has earned the highest praise from many and various sources as being one of the best the society has ever given. Now it has been planned to hold the Spring Concert on the evening of Tuesday, March 22nd. A number of choruses from St. Paul will be the principal work of the choir and much careful study has already been given to this work. With the remaining opportunities for further prac­ tise a highly creditable perform­ ance will be rendered. The other part of the pro­ gramme will be a miscellaneous character with numbers by the newly formed boys choir which is being trained by Professor Morgan. Those who were fortunate enough to hear the Westminster Boys Choir sing have great hopes for the West Vancouver Boys Choir and with training and op­ portunities why should they not become equally well known? Of course this is their first season and their work must be judged as a first season's effort, but by a bumper house give them all encouragement and confidence for further and continued hard work. A word to the members of the choir. A full attendance at every rehearsal is asked for in prepar­ ation for this concert which will wind up our season's work and clear the way for intensive study of the Festival Choruses.
