Community Chorus

The big concert that is to be
given by the chorus on evening
of May 20, is assured of being
one of the events of the season.
Among the outside talent to as
sist is Mr.. Albert E. Balir, Sher-
brooke's best tenor singer, also
Mrs. Hazel Thomas Lowell of
Coaticook, others with the or
chestra will be announced la
ter. ...,.
This chorus was organized
for the purpose of filling a need
in Island Pond. There was
nothing being done as to spec
ial training of the musical vo-
cal talent of the town.. It &C.
cured to several interested men
why this would not be an op-
portunity to render a real SER
vice to the community, espec-
tally to the churches and social
life, by making it possible for
the people to have their vocies
cultivated, that they in turn
might render a greater service.
The Chorus is not asking some
thing for nothing, but will fur
nish a concert that will be en-
tertaining and of high grade
music. Remember the date,
May goth.

n q AXE on the part
orr Governor not to call an
extra session and let Vermont
have the credit.
The legislative branch want
ed to do this, bit the Governor
refused-a shining example of
what a reactionary, superan-
nuated millionaire can do. We
should have an executive
whose hopes and aspirations
are with the people and who
responds to their call. Not an
aristocrat who travels on spec
ial train, employs a butler and
a lackey to button his shoes
and adjust his collar. That's
why all the boys will repudiate
Rabbit, Hardness, Agan and
Company and vote for Curt
Emery.
That the President of the u
nited States is suffering from
a brain lesion is demonstrated
The President fails to make
decisions upon the most i'm
portant public matters. No
cabinet meetings for months
with one single exception.
The members of the cabinet
do not dare to meet for fear of
being removed by the eXecu-
tive.
The President fails and re-
fuses to meet ambassadors and
public ministers which it is his
plain duty to do.
The Presidents own party
must be worried over the con-
dition facing a National Cam
paign with a President, FORM
erly a most brilliant man and
accomplished scholar, suffer

possessing an enervated mind
yet having most eg~otistical ma
