Wind in the trees. In the bronze green of the old russet tree in the orchard where bluejays like lost bits of the morning sky— posed. And sunvcver all.

“Do you know what?" Mack came by after school. “Fall holi- days are here! Did you have them' when you were a school- girl?” '

“Why, yes, we did. Three weeks instead of your two, in those days—to harvest the pota- toes: the blues that wcnt so well with the heirringtdinner, and the Dakota reds, white inside and floury, some lcooks preferred in- stead of the others to add to their bread."

In this Business and Profession all Women‘s Week the achieve- ments of many outstanding wo- men have been presented. Much has been written of the career of Muriel Gidley Stanford so that the public is well acquainted with this musician. Mrs. Starf- ford is the first woman in the history of Canada to be presi- dent of the Canadian College of Organists.

From a feminine reader‘s point of view we might also add: Mur- iel Gidley Statford is tall and still has the light brown hair. As a young student in the Tor- onto Conservatory residence she was known as the girl with the lovely deep blue eyes. As for the fringed eyelashes they were the joy of the lads and almost the envy of the lassies! '

Muriel was popular with both boys and girls but even then the driving force and brilliant musical mind gave promise of the musical career that was in store for her.

From the Conservatory resid- ence she moved to Sherbourne House Club and there she lived for many happy years during the headship of Miss Florence Bol- lert. As a young girl Muriel was a leading worker in the Sher- bourne Club I.O.D.E.

Although Muriel Gid’ley Staf-

ford‘ts career is music yet she, is probably one of the best need-'

lewomen in Canada. Her moth- er ahead of her had this genius for exceedingly fine sewing. To see Muriel Gidlcy's originally de- signed evening dresses with the Iayers of voluminous skirts, al- most every bit of which is hand sewn, is something her friends stand around in awed circles to ndmire.

Muriel Gidley is the only diauv ghter of the late C01. and Mrs. Gidley’ of Leamington. Mrs. Stafford's husband also shares her musical taste and also has a musical education. Their simply beautiful home in Toronto is one of the centres for all that is pleasant in the social and cultural life of Canada.

‘Muriel is remembered for loy— alty to friends through the years and pub this quality can be cor- related that of friendliness. Mr. John Harris. A.R.C.O. of this city remarked: "She was so very friendly at all times throughout the conference."

The bulletin \\ Inch Al‘lll‘lEI in

sued to those attending the’ con- ference makes for interesting reading to musicians, organists in particular and to all those won— derful people at this time of year throughout Canada as they take up their self-sacrificing work in numerous organizations. The sim- ilarity of aspirations and pro- blems apply to all.

The following is the president’s message: V

Having completed one very full year of the business of the col- lege as your president I feel that I can speak to you at the be- ginning of this College New Year. with a voice of authority and pride. We have had a very suc- cessful convention in Ottawa, thanks to the hardworking com- mittees who made it possible, and we have renewed our faith in the capabilities of our mem- bers and the prestige of the col- lege. Our mission is of the great- est importance as we spread out into more and more communites across the country, and we are fortunte to have a fine band of dedicated musicians who give freely of their time for the cause of the college.

The convention registration soared over the 300 mark, and included 74 Americans. East met west as never before as we greet. ed Mr. Graham Steed from Vic~ toria, B.C. Dr. D.K. Peters, New- foundland, and Mr. H.J. Harris from P.E.I. At the beginning of the annual meeting it was my sad duty to announce the death of Britain‘s great musician Vaughan Williams. A message of condol- ence was sent to London, Eng- land, on behalf of the college.

The treasurer’s report reveal- ed that we have spent more than we have received this past year-— did someone say ‘that‘s a wo- man for you?" A close scrutiny of our regular expenses each year prompted the su gestion of the council to raise the head- quarters fee next year. You will hear more about this later.

The building fund has reached the sum of $11,832.92 and it. is interesting to note that many of the small centres have raised more money per capita than the larger ones. Perhaps one might suggest that large centres diw ide up into groups which could compete with each other and the small local centre as well.

It was unfortunate that Mr D‘»

for the splendid service he has given to the college in the realm of public relations and expan- sion. Mr. Geen is also our re- presentative on the Canada Coun- cil.

The examination candidates were presented to me by Mr. Eric Dowling, F.C.C.O., St. Ca- tharines, Chairman of the Ex- amination Committee. Of these one fellowship diploma was pre- sented to Keith L. Hopkins, Bur- lington, and Associate diplomas to Walter Kemp, Toronto, Peter W. Snyder, St. Catharines, and the following in albsentia: Albert Comer, Toronto. Raymond Gould, Toronto, and Ronald T. Wollard, Toronto.

To me this ceremony was the peak of the convention and I look forward to the time when more and more candidates will be eligible for diplomas. 0n ac‘ count of the increase in examin- ers’ fees, the council found it ne— cessary to raise the entry for the examination from $15 to $20 for the associate and from $20 to $25 for fellowship, to take effect at the next examination in 1959. I feel sure that any student who has mastered the intricacies of the examination requirements will not hesitate to make applica- tion on this account.

Unanimous approval was given for our Golden Jubilee convention to be held in Toronto next year. Already great things are being planned for this important oc- casion. The assembly signified its enthusiasm for a convention in the west in 1960. Although our viceapresident for NE. Mr. T. Morrison, come to Fredericton that year, our acceptance of an invitation from Vancouver is long over- due.
