For the first such rehearsal only a few were able to turn out and for the second the same was true with the additional trouble that the two groups were mainly different members. It was considered that this was not satisfactory or practical and that the best plan would be to suspend practices altogether for. the summer months. Accordingly the Porcupine Male Choirâ€"will not hold practices or rehearâ€" sals during June, July or August but will resume the regular meetings in the fall. In the meantime, however, it is the intention for the members to keep in touch through the medium of monthly getâ€"together events, chiefly of social nature.
