Local School Travel to
Whitefish for Event.
SUCCESSFUL IN
EVERY PARTICULAR

Ninety-five members of the Libby
school system attended the Northwest
Montana Musical at Whitefish, Satur-
| day, May r. The affair was an out
standing success as all the people partic-
ipating seemed to enjoy themselves
and presented music of a high type
that was not married by the competitive
spirit. The motto of the meet was, mo,
to defeat an opponent or win a prize
but to pace each other on the road to
excellence"
The day started with massed "a"
band rehearsal for the evening per-
Torrance with Mr.. G. Whitney of
Whitefish conducting This was followed
with sB' rehearsal with Mr.. J. Van

Whitefish furnished an excellent noon
meal for all the participants At one
o'clock the combined choruses re-
hearsed under Mr.. G. Whitney and Miss
Margret Burr.
The afternoon program for the public
began at 2:30 Each of the schools pre-
sented 10 minutes of vocal music and
10 minutes of instrumental music The
schools participating in the afternoon
were Whitefish, Kalispell, Libby, Poison
and Bigfork. There were some excellent
numbers played in the afternoon. The
Whitefish band and the Kalispell chorus
rendered numbers of exceptional quail
ity. The Libby orchestra played three
numbers, March Romano" by Gounod,
"Minuet" from don Juan" by Mozart
and "Intermezzo.' by Bizet. The APP
plause for these numbers was very
gratifying. The Libby chorus was re-
ceived in an excellent manner when
they sang Miss Fousek's composition
Kind Friends and Gentle Hearts
