The social interests of this or any
town are greatly dependent upon the
ability of many OF its people to sing, and
if much time elapses between singing
schools the young people suffer and that
community soon finds it has lack of
singers. Prof May is ready to do his
part il the people will cooperate faith
fully and Loyalty. Contributions for the
support of the annual singing school are
solicited by Mrs Albin Smith, who has
already received quite little. If people
voluntarily offer and pay contributions
now, it will make the work more effective
and easy.
