All over capacity house witnessed the opening night of the amateur contest held in summ “us last evening. crowds were to be seen on every street leading to the school an hour before the curtain was scheduled to rise and rnany had to be turned away. The fine pm- grarnme was sponsored by the Mn- sic Committee of the er-side Board of '1‘:-ado and they are to be highly commended on their enter- prise in putting on the programme and also on the success with which it was received. The newly organ- ized Summerside band was in at- tendance dilected by Mr. Berton Robinson and it played the open- ing selection “O Canada".

Rev. Waiter Mccleary acted very efficiently as Major Bowed or the evening and in his opening re- marks gave special mention to the band of which he stated he was very proud and knew that the audi- cnce would be too after hearing their initial performance. He took the opportunity of again expressing thanks to Senator MacArthur who so kindly donated the instruments to the band.

Tile first selection on the pro- gramme was the “Corinthian Over- ture" by the combined orchestras 11’ Stan Jamiescn and Harold Gaudet and the band. Rev. Mr. Mc- Cleary then explained the method of balloting and expressed the hope that every one w0u‘d hand in a conscientious ballot as the 11 best would be chosen to compete in the final the next evening and also that the eventual winners would be‘. given an interview with a repre-I sentatlvc from the Canadian Radio, commission next week.

Mr. Mccleary as Major Bowes then sent the wheel of fortune spinning and the amalteurs then took over and a fine opening num- ber wad presented by Miss Mary Lou Welsh. Time and space will not permit enumerating each in- divldual performance although each was of a. calibre much higher than the ordinary. However. the writer felt that considering Mm Wal’~'h's youth her song and tap dance

During the second intermission the band were again impressive as they rendered two difficult num- ’bers.

Number 21 Miss Laura Maclsaac in a vocal number gave a pleasing‘ solo featured by some excellenti yodeiiing. 'I‘wo popular young men in sumlnerslde, Mr. Herbert Schur- man and Mr. Alwyn Gay, as No. 22 on the programme treated the audience to some of the harmony for which they have long been noted in a vocal duet. They sang two selec-tiolls the second of which. “A parody to the summcrslde Band” was enthusiastically received. It featured all the members of the band and was sang to the music of “Polly Woily Doodle all the Day." Step dancing continued its popularity as Violet Barney pleased everyone with a peppy perform. ance. Miss Helen Ruth Simpson as No. 26 on the programme was bril- liant in a combination tap and ballet dance. At this time a com- ment night he made on the three young tap dancers the Mises welsh, Davis and Simpson. A judge dele- gated to pick the bet performer would have a very difficult job in- rle"d. All three were somewhat of a sire and there was very l’.tt'e difference in their ages.

The next number was unique alld known as pitch discrimination. Tile Major stated that he had never- scerl an act of this kind on the stage before. The performer, Beat- rice Gallant, distinguished in the vicinity of 20 musical notes with her back turned and was only out in one instance and only 1-2 tone. She also played two (elections on the piano. received a deafening ap- p‘ause and was called back for an encore. Her age was 13 years and She had been taking music for four years. Number 33 a violin tr‘o by

number is worthy of special men- tion. she was tendered a tremend- ous ovation. Miss Auldine Arscnnult: rendered the Spanish dance. Bo- lero. in a very acceptable manner. Comedy and talent were botll in

evidence as the little tot Mast Ruthie MacFarline gave a vocal: solo. M‘ss Dorothy Dumorlt and‘

Miss Nora. Downe very capably per-. formed a difficult Spanish dance.

The next entrant gave the fans the experience of seeing what they have so often ,heard over the air the “Gong". And the “Bounce-r" Mr. Hazcn MacDonald gently escorted the unfortunate actor from the stage. Jean Gordon and Helen Da- vies blended their voices in a very well rendered duet as the 9th item on the programme. As no. lo Ern- est Gallant‘; step dancing. accom- panied by Leslie ciow on the guitar was very popular with the audi- ence. Following the 10th number there was a brief intermission dur- ing which entertainment was pro- vided by Stan Jamleson‘s popular dance orchestra.

As Nb. 13 on the 'Pi‘08T3mm¢ Miss Iorene. Bampel, the first adult vocalist of the evening, very pleas- ingly rendered two numbers. Miss Marie Davis gave an excellent per- fomrarlce of toe dancing as No. 14 on the programme and certainly looked like Hollywood material in the making.

The charming residence of Mr. and Mrs. John A. Dawson was the scene of a very happy event yes- terday when this popular couple ce]- ebrated the 50th anniversary or their wedding.

From quite early in the afternoon until late in the evening friends from far and near called to extend their congratulations.

Mrs. A. E. Wright presided over the ten cups. Assisting in serving were Mrs. Ivan Dawson and Mrs. S. Sherren.

The spacious house of the Daw- sons was inadequate to hold the large number of friends and neigh- bors who attended the evening cele- brations. Dr. Carl Dawson and Col. U. G. Dawson were joint Masters of Ceremonies and introduced the guests.

About 8.30 when the guests had been regaled with refreshments. Mrs. Sterling Tucker was called upon to mnke the first speech of the evening on behalf of the We- mens Institute of Central Bedeque, of which she is the president. to Mrs. Dawson. one of their oldest members.

Mr. Dawson Replies

In replying to the speeches on behalf of his partner and hlrnself. Mr. Dawson spoke very feellngly of the happy years they had spent in Bedeque and fully appreciated the kindness and affection that had been showered upon them.

The Queen Mary's second day on the Atlantic was one of fair seas and unclouded skies. Little dim- culties due to the over-whclming demands of the maiden voyage are smoothing out. The radio is catch- ing up with long delays.

Never was a ship so deluged with wireless greetings. Never had a ‘ship so many messages to send. Even the Queen Mary's most mod- er-n equipment failed to meet the

‘demands. Newspaper con*espcnd- ents bewailed delays running to 22 hours. Touching descriptions of, life at sea seemed to disappear in- ito a great void. Wireles operators struggled manfuily to stem the tide. Correspondents agreed to limit their .messages. Now finally even the ‘Queen Mary's radio is emerging from the flood.
