Drama Festival Ass'n Activities

Following is the report of the retiring president. Mrs. Harold Laird, submitted at the recent an-

Festival Association:

“in reviewing the activities of our Provincial Drama Festival over which I have had the honor to preside for three years, L feel that we are concerned with something unique in the field of Canadian dramatics. I am informed that in no other Province is there a Pro- vincial Drama Festival. Regional festivals? County festivals? Church festivals? Yes, but no drama festival such as we have, open to all the rural organizations of a province, and in time. we hope, to town young peoples organizations.

"The idea, you will remember began four years ago in a district convention area, as did the Musical Festival. Six plays were presented that year with local adjudicators

Judging the plays.

"The following year, which we shall call the first year the festi- val was declared open to any Wo- men's Institute group on the Is- land. The district convention area was chosen for grouping the plays. and although the idea was sound. such organization later proved too cumbersome. Rules and Resub- tions, therefore, were much sim- plified the same year, and the Drama Festival Executive was made responsible for the grollpinl of play-offs, semi-finals and finals. "In the second year, too, the ‘Prince Edward Island Libraries co- operated with us and issued a cata- logue oi one-act plays from which groups could choose and sent to the Libraries for plays for reading and selection. (I hope Mr. Chandler will give some figures to prove the success oi this undertaking and the growth oi interest indramatics.) "Mr. Chandler, as director oi Adult Education, was instrumental in having Mr. Wetmore, dramatios adviser for Nova Scotia, come over and give a. dramatic school course during the winter of i048. Mem- bers oi the Little Theatre Guild were also able to avail themselves of this course. Again in 1949 through the efforts oi Brig. Reid and Mr. Chandler. and at our re- quest. Mr. Meiklejohn, dramatic: adviser for the Dominion came to Charlottetown and held a short course. This course also was open to members of the Little Theatre Guild, although, oi course attend- ance had to be limited. All ex- pense of the two courses was borne by the Provincial Physical Fitness branch of’ Adult Education for which we were most grateful. This branch also gave us last year a grant of I100 to help us carry on and before that we shared with the Music Festival in grant o! over $300 donated to the two festivals by the Dental Clinic under the direction of Mrs. Wyand. This year we are especially haDPY and grateful to our Government, which through the efforts of Dr. Shaw. hoaososeen fit to give us a grant oi

summer school for teachers. This is a. step in the right direction. and should bear fruit.

“This year much effort hasbeen put into both publicizing our Fes- tival and. interesting groups in dramatics. As convener oi arts and literature in the Women's Instit- ute. I prepared a paper on our drama festival work which was sent as program material to all our Institutes. ln slightly altered form this paper was sent to Mrs. Leslie Ramsay, our C.W.l.. Liason officer who distributed it to C.W.L. groups. A short pep paper on dramatics was also prepared which was dis- tributed by Mr. David Murphy Y.P.U. Liiason officer and by Mr. Leo Mclsaac to Junior Farmer's organizations.

“What was the response to this effort? l5 groups entered the Provincial Drama Festival. but also some fell by the wayside, others were consumed by the cares of this

and eight only held fast to the and. I think we all can appreciate the difficulties encountered in holding s. cast together for several weeks. l only hope that no cast gets a. case of nerves and withdraws for that reason. We may have lots of wounds to lick after the Festival is all over but what of that — the Festival is interesting, educational, hard work, and lots of fun.

"Our Festival playoffs began May 20th. much later than we had planned or anticipated. Four groups each competed in Queens and Prince Counties. 1t is to be regret- ted therc were no entries from Kings. Groups winning first and second place in each county then competed in the finals at Sum- merside. The oratorical contest of the Junior Farmers organization was held the first night of the Festival. Mr. Wetmore of Nova Scotia Judged the Festival finals. and in the oratorical contest was assisted by Prof. Frank MacMil- lan and Mr. Norman Macdonald. For the play-off and semi-finals we are grateful indeed to the fol- lowing adjudicators who gave so generously oi their time and abil- ity. Mrs. Henry. Mrs. Scantlobtuy, Mrs. Smallman, Mrs. Patterson, Mrs. Dr. Millar, Hon. Mr. Large. Mr. Barry Bugden, Mr. Morton Dew. Mr. Cassidy.

"For the finals of the Junior Drama. Festival to Mrs. Leslie Ramsay. Rev. SJ. Davies and Mr. Ross MacKcnzie.

In December, s. 16 minutes round table discussion on dramatice was given over OFCY with the follow- ing taking part, Mrs. Scantlebury. Mr.‘ Arthur Vessey. Mr. Norman Macdonald, Mr. David Murphy and myself. Intercstingaitems on dra- matics appeared from time to time in the press and Institute News. many of them supplied by the PEI. Libraries.

"We may not have grown so much larger in numbers, atlhough twenty entries in all is a healthy number. but I do feel that the in- terest in dramatics has increased 100% since our Festival work be- gan. Nova Scotla has requested us to give them the history of our organization, and our ways of fin- ancing it. They are interested in starting a similar movement. l think the Festival and the Little Theatre Guild are building friend- ship and coorasation between city and country people. We appreciate the Ciuild's interest in us, and we are very much interested in their organization.

"In this my last report to you as President, I would like to say thank you very very much to all of trial and error. for we have lit- erally ieit our ‘way along. Mrs. MacLood has been a most loyal and faithful secretary treasurer and Mrs. Gates and Mrs. Herring a tower oi strength. To all then who

d IN MEMORIAM

MRS. FRANK HOWARD

Sunday evening. May 22nd. af- ter attending service in Cornwall Church and as she was about to retire. Mrs. Frank Howard was suddenly stricken with paralysis. which left her conscious. but speechless until her death on June lat.

Mrs. Howard was born at North River, Oct. 3. 1669. the daughter of John and Elizabeth Balderson - Howard. After her marriage she moved to Cornwall where she has been an esteemed resident for over fifty years.

During her liie of eighty years she was a true christian woman: in her home a devoted wife and

mother, and where her hospitality was famous and unbounded: in the community as a neighbour and nurse during many serious illnesses; in the W. M. S. of which she was a life member. and at the May meeting reviewed a book on China very acceptably and in her church as an organist for upwards of thirty years and where she served as an elder un- iii her death. Truly it might be said of her "She hath done what she could."

The funeral service was held in Cornwall United Church on Friday, June 3rd. Rev. J. R. Skin- ner a former pastor who visited her while ill. read the scripture. Rev. T. Wilson. Covehead. offer- cd prayer. and Rev. M. K. Char- man, her pastor. whom she re- cognized to the last as he tender- ly sang and prayed with her, ad- dressed the large audience.

l-lis opening sentence “l have preached many sermons. but for the two years I have been with

fittingly said more and admon- ished all to ‘Come.’

The hymns sung were: Lead Kindly Light and Nearer My God to Thee and Mrs. Douglas Mac- Donald very sweeily sang “The Christian's Goodnight" with Mrs. Gordon MacMillan as organist.

The host of friends who called to offer sympathy, and the hun- dreds of’ people at the funeral service conducted by Mr. Cutcliffe. all were a token of the high es- teem in which she was held.

She leaves to mourn. a sorrow- ing husband. two sons. Hazen oi Cornwall. Victor of Edmonton. Alberta and one daughter Mary Mrs. Frank Hughes. Covehcaci.

One son. Cyril. predeceased her in his early manhood. also six Qrandchildren and nine great grandchildren.

One sister. Mrs. Laura lVfacRae, Seattle. Washington, survives her.
