signed requests polio vaccine will be given vac cine during the next few weeks two doses for those who did not receive vaccine last year and third dose for those who had the first two doses last year It is expected that the vaccine To most of us in our lifetime there come only a few evenings that we can label perfect But there are those few and we mem bers of the Concert Association were privileged to share one them on Thursday evening April when Betty Jean with her violin as the magic wand carried us into a land where time was nothing and music reigned supreme I have heard many violinists some of them great but none of them aroused in me the sense of perfect satisfaction that this young player did Something happened two or three times dur ing this concert which only oc curs when an audience is deeply stirred a complete silence for a moment or two at the conclusion of a number and then the spon taneous burst of applause It is as if the audience wishes to save what it has heard before giving vent to an expression of appre ciation I am sure were Mozart still with us he would have breathed a sigh of satisfaction as he listen ed to Miss interpretation of his Adagio in C major with which the program opened Mozart lovers are jealous of anything that might lessen the spell he can cast But this young violinist had an insight into his special technique and rounded beauty Her Brahms Sonata in D minor was a marvellous piece of work A technique so beauti fully adequate a brilliancy so scintillating and a beauty of tone In its fortes and the performance was tremendous and yet in pianos and pianissimos it could diminish to a mere thread of sound which yet in pitch and clarity of enunciation was per fect The Brahms Sonata gave the player full scope for every shade will be available for preschool age children some time in June and plans are being made for its administration to the age children at that time and Express Classifieds Bring Results of expression and mastery of her instrument The next numbers were Havanaise by the Hungarian Folk tunes These are not the usual gypsy ones but are delightful little tone pictures by was ex quisitely tender and the conclud ing Polonaise by was a test of any violinists technique Miss mastery of her bow was a delight to watch one was fairly breathless with the speed color drama and beauty of the interpretation Miss was tendered an ovation at the close and responded generously with two encores It is indeed delightful to this young Betty jean has a personality the warmth and beauty of which is inflected in her artistry The picture of her and her violin will linger long in our memories sur rounded by the echoes of the wonderful music she gave us In she had an ac companist who literally lived every Betty Jean played as he translated and gave them the musical foundation which is so satisfying to a violin ist To me a real accompanist is someone who while giving adequate and beautiful support to a soloist never obtrudes his part Meeting Mr Barken afterwards he told us that he thoroughly en joyed playing that night asked him if it was because the audi ence was so sympathetic He said Definitely one can sense an audiences reaction very early in the program Speaking to Betty Jean afterwards I told her that various people includ ing Archie and me felt like going home and destroying our violins I said Which shall we do put them away forever or practice harder Practice harder by all means she told me and on this note of hope and encouragement from an artist as lovely off the stage as on Ill close with the hope and indeed the certainty that the years ahead for Miss Hagen will be years of world fame and hap piness that only comes to those who give happiness to others Vrfcgj i Then He opened He their understanding that they might understand the scriptures First the Lord Jesus is spoken of as opening the Scriptures as He Joined the disciples on the Road now He is 3s opening their under stanifng in iinrt work He has helpers but in the second stands alone many can bring the Scriptures to mind but the Lord alone can prepare the mind to receive them Our Lord differs from all other Teachers They reach the ear but He roaches the heart they deal with the outward letter but He parts an inward taste for the Truth by which we perceive its savour and spirit The most unlearned of mem become ripe scholars In the school of Grace when the Lord Jesus by His Spirit unfolds the mysteries of the Kingdom and grants the divine annotating by which they are able to behold the invisible Happy arc we if we have our understandings cleared and strengthened by the Master How many men of profound learning are Ignorant of eternal things They know the killing letter of revelation but its living spirit they cannot discern They have a veil upon their hearts which eyes of reason cannot penetrate- Such was our case a little time ago we who now see were once blind Truth was to us as beauty in the dark a thing unnoticed Had it not been for the love of Jesus Christ we should have remained until this moment in utter ignorance for without His gracious opening of our under standing we could no more have obtained spiritual understanding than an infant could climb the Pyramids or an ostrich fly to the stars This school when Jesus Christ Is our instructor the one where Gods Truth can be truly learned Other schools may teach us what is to be believed but Christ alone can show us how to believe it Let us sit at the feet of Him and by our earnest prayer call in His blessed aid that our dull wits may grow brighter and our feeble understandings may re ceive heavenly things Wedding HUNTER Saturday April Mount Al bert United church was the scene of a quiet afternoon wedding when Irene Julia
