A delightful evening of musical and dramatic enturtainment pre- scnted by the stuldients of Prince street School at Prince of Wales College Audltorllnn last evening was enjoyed by a. more-than-capa- city crowd which. filled the seats and overflowed into the aisles.

The main feature of the evening was the presentation of an abridg- ed version of W. S. Gilbert and Arthur sullivans; I-l:MtS. Pinafore, but .l.he preceding numbers by younger students were also greatly enjoyed by the audience, which demonstrated tits enthusiasm throughout the program by its hearty applause.

The Prince fitreet School band. under the very capable direction of its leader, Mr. Ivo Cudmore. opened the evening's entertain- ment with a polished rendition of Franz von Suppe's Poet and Peas- ant Overture.

leadership Course For WI Presidents ls Concluded

An interesting session yesterday morning brought to a 01038 U119 Women's Institute 'Dlstrict Presi- dents' Leadership Course which was held Wednesday and Thursday at the Vocational School.

Mrs. Malcolm M3CLO0d. honor- ary president of the Women's In- stitutea, presided over the session. The meelilng divided into groups to discuss the planning of district conventions. which will be held in June and July. Summaries otf the conclusions reached by each group were presented to the meeting fol- lowing their deliberations.

Dr. Frank MacKlnnon. principal on Prince of Wales College. spoke on the subject of books, advislnz his listeners in irhe course of his address that children should start reading at an early age. and that parents should encourage them in this. He pointed out that a great deal of benefit was to be derived from reading other than school books. and pointed out that par- ents would do well to make desir- able books available to youngsters. without compelling them to read

and thereby making it into a chore '

which would create distaste for reading.

Amendment To Adoption Act

An amended a.mend.ment to the Adoption Act will hereafter per- mit the adoption of I. child under special circumstances where the child has been living in the home of the adopting parents for at least a, year. V

Hon. A. W. Matheson. Minister of Health and Welfare. said. it was desirable to havesome provision to take care of special cases and cited instances where a person or P9110” might be looking after a child for a long time and then wish to leave the Province and also wish to adopt the child legally before going. Un- der the Act as it presently stands a, period of supervision by 3- Child Welfare Agency is required.

However. l-ion. said he believed the Attorney Gen- eral. I-ton. W. E. Darby. hid I suggestion which he believed worthy of consideration by the members and asked that it be presented. I-ion. Mr, Darby proposed that the pre- sent period of supervision may be relaxed where the child has been a. member of the home for at least a year.

While the bill was in committee I-Ion. Mr. Matheson said his de-

partment would name someone to I

work this year with the present child welfare officer in order to avoid future delays in investiga- lions in adoption proceedings. He said the department has as its wards many children for adoption.

"t. B. Earle MacDonald, Fifth Queen's. asked why reliable people who were willing to have other re- liable people vouch for them in the matter of adoption should have to be kept waiting for long per- iods before they could obtain a child. Hon. Mr. Darby said he believed that a judge of the Court should be the one to decide on the reliability. Hon. Mr. Matheson reminded the House that though
