Ltd. to make the musie room at Oshawa Central Col- legiate soundproof, The motion asked that the job be done dur- ing the Christmas holiday period. The room, part of a new addi- tion to the Collegiate, is not now soundproof. : In the building contract John B. Parkin Associates, architects, promised the room would not "leak" sound. They now. say that Wilkinson Construction Company has not built accord- ing to the plan.

Robert Hitchinson, building in- 'spector, told the board that sound was "literally pouring" through and over one of the walls forming the music room. He said this was because the wall had not been built to spect- fication. J. E, Sievenpiper, a represen- tative of the architect, said the wall that was letting out sound ee the music room would lave to be pulled down if the room was to be built strictly to specification. He said however, the wall could be made soundproof with certain additions and this would be equal to the contract draw- ings and much less expensive. Two trustees, R. J. Nicol, and E. A.

Atter.¢ Special Lecture On Art literature of Athens are testi- monials to the Greek concen- tration on physical development and the exercise of mental powers. The upsurge of Christian be- lief was reflected in the works of Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and other great painters and sculptors. Books of that time were largely religious in nature and all artists sought to debase man and to glorify God. To-day's artist looks around and does not like what he sees, and his dissatisfaction is re- vealed in the dissonant chords and atonal scales of modern music, in the plotless novel and in the pointless painting. The older order has vanished and the new one is intolerable, but Mr. Hearn feels that Unitarism, lin its search for the quintes- sence of truth and beauty, offers a new hope to the world, a new vision to be portrayed by twentieth-century artists for the edification of all peoples.
