Master, pupil of Miss \"Rose Goldblatt, gave an interesting piano recital of music ranging from Bach to Shostakovitch last Monday evening at Victoria Hall (Westmount).After an absence of about two years from the concert stage, this was a membrable return for Miss Master.The main work on Miss Master's program was Beethoven's Sonata Appassionata in, F Minor, Opus 57.This sonata acts at all times as a chalienge to all pianists, Miss Master's interpretation was good on the whole, her attack on the second movement however was not entirely called for.This movement is one of respose, it acts as an , Interlude between the stormy first - rainy day and last movements.Due to the heavy playing it seemed like a between two stormy ;.days instead of creating that pas- :toral feeling \u2018one adventures be- I tween -stormy days.It- was also noticed in her interpretation that * alie had a little trouble with pedal - leakage.It was the performances of the - first two compositionse that Miss © i { r \u2018Master proved herself an.artist._'The first of these two works was Corelli\u2019 s \u201cFolies d\u2019Espagne\u201d ar \u2018ranged for piano by \u2018Miss Gold- \u201c'blatt.This piece wag à series of \u201cPictures, they almost sounded like _3 theme and variation.Miss Mas- \u201c ter\u2019s playing of them was clear cut e MUSICAL Score Adams and flawless at all times.It was a pleasure to listen to them, Better still was the remarkable performance -of Bach\u2019s \u201cOrgan Prelude and Fugue in A Minor\" arranged for piano by Liszt.The outstanding feature in this rendition was the remarkable - technical power of Miss Master's left hand.Not often does one hear Bach's organ transcriptions so enthusiastically and brilliantly played on the piano.Of the entire program this was the most enjoyabe.After the intermission Miss Master returned to play the lighter portion of her program.She opened with the well known Capriccio in B Minor by Brahms followed.by the charmingly graceful Intermezzo in A also by Brahms.It was in these two compositions that Miss Master showed her ability at phrasing.Three Fantastic Dances by Shostakovitch followed, these being plated with precision lost none of their humour.Miss Master closed her listed program by playing two compositions by Liszt.In the first of these, Die Lorelel, the artist was given ample opportunity to display sentiment in music.The other Liszt composition was his Concert Etude In F Minor.Here brilliance was Miss Master's Watchword.The coneert closed with two encores: Gra- \u2018-nados\u2019 \u201cPlayera\u2019\u201d; and a Mazurka by Chopin.Westmount High \u2018(Continued from Page 1) \u2018who - has \u2018preformed the greatest service tothe school and who best has combined the

Editor : This is in regard to news îtems appearing in.the Examiner on February 16 and 23 with reference to a new branch -of the Legion at present being organized in Westmount.While we \u2018have mo objection to another branch -of the Legion in this locality, yet of necessity we must take strong -exception to two inferences reported In connection with the new organiza- Firstly, it was stated the R.M.R, Branch is regimemtal; secondly, the statement that \u201cIt is felt that a good live branch) can be established for the West- mount district\u201d would by inference imply that the R.M.R.Branch is not alive and progressive, Both the above inferences are quite unfounded and show a lack of appreciation for the out: standing work which has been and is being done by the R.M.R.Branch.During the past three years, our branch has grown from slightly over one hundred to more than three hundred and fifty members.Though we take = natural and commendable pride in the tradition of the Royal Montreal Regiment with which we are affiliated, yet no effort lias been made to remain ex- clusivee Our membership includes not only many veterans who gerved with regiments other than the Royal Montreal Regl- ment, but also includes the var- fous branches of the _service Army, Navy, Air Force, and Merchant Marine, bound together in one great brotherhood.Our firet Vice-President and three of the six members of the Executive Committee are veterans of this war, our object being to hand over tbe active direction of the branch to the young, active, and energetic veteran just as soon as he is prepared and willing to assume the responsibility.From the foregoing you will realize that though we are the pioneer branch of the Legion in this locality and though we have a fine background of regimental tradition, yet we are far from exclusive and far from dead.Returning veterans and also those of the last war who have not yet joined the Legion and who seek to join a branch of proven experience and service and possessing something more than mere newness and imexper- ience as recommendations, will \u2018be well advised to get in touch with the Secretary of the R.M.R.Association, Quebec Branch No.14, Canadian Legion, B.E.S.L., whose address and telephone number are given below.While ix the past we have been content to contact the returned man and etrive to serve him ir every way possible, without seeking publicity for our efforts, wn feel that in simple Justice you will wish to rectify the misconceptions, which we be- lleve were quite unintentional, by giving to this letter the same prominence as was given to the articles regarding the proposed new branch.Yours truly, Max R.LeRoy, Secretary.Telephone WI.6307.Fire Fighter Arrives Back From Overseas Harry MacDougall Jones, son of Mrs.Alan M.Jones, of 4216 Dor- chester street west, Westmount, who has returned to Canada following service in England with a Canadian fire fighter unit stationed at Portsmouth since October, 1942, according to word re- celved last night.Enlisting early in 1942, he trained at Ottawa and went overseas that fall.His wife and small son live at Valois and ee Westward (Conttuned from Page 1) ferred to Mr.Lovejoy as the | right man in the right place, big physically but bigger in heart and mind and the understanding necessary in- installing new clubs In warring countries now -de- nuded.Cl He congratulated Westward Rotary on.the honours that had come their way, said they had done outstanding work and were deserving of this mark of ap preciation.A reference was -made in conclusion.to the number of evictions \u2018of servicemens\u2019 families from their homes and he suggested that at the meeting] \u2018of.the service clubs the subject of doing could \u2018be profitably studied.Westward president introduced Mr.W.Allan who went directly to the heart of a stirring appeal for Boy Scout funds- for the next five years.\u2019 860UT FUND APPEAL He spoke of the need\u201d of 7,000 boys of Montreal, about \u2018there being only £00 volunteer workers among them, where 600]o \u2018| could well be used, of only 56 professional workers employed against 7 that were essential.The .Boy Scout representative showed how only 25% of these boys were enjoying the boyish romance of camp, of practical scoutcraft, and incidentally good citizenship under the ideal con- \u2018ditions, as against the 80% at very least who should have these camping privileges.Mr.Allan went on to say that the Boy Scouts had high priority with the newly formed War Assets Corporation for the supply of tents, boats, huts etcetera - providing they had the money to pay for them.That he was in the presence cf close friends of the Boy Scouts he was as thoroughly convinced as he was that the quota for the next tive years would be reached, which wag $206,000 and that a 25% oversubscription, which would bring the sum to $260,000 could be as readily reached if all would realise that this would give à 50% profit return in boys in camp and training, which would mean the grounding of a new generation and new citizens.Mr, Brewerton then produced a quartette worthy of a repeat anywhere, Cecil Medlar, 8.Cuth- bert, Jim McAndrews and Duncan Shanahan who excellently rendered \u2018In The Evening By The Moonlight\u2019 and \u2018Sweet Adeline\u2019, the title of the second, drawing, for

the speaker today.To all Rotarians, I am sure no special Introduction is needed and most of you heard him at the Montreal Club.To all our other visitors and friends I reveal Mr.Lovejoy has recently

Westmount Public Library will remain until the middle, of March announced Miss Kathleen Jenkins, Librarian.; The display features maps and land dispositions dating back a hundred years in Westmount History with more interesting items being sent in dally.The Librarian strecses the fact that many West- mount homes contain small items that are of vital interest to the exhibition and that any pictures, maps, skeiches, etc., that may be deemed \u2018\u2018too important\u201d by the owner may in reality be extremely valuable as an addition to the collection, Any items of the above Lype will be most gratefullÿ received by the Historical Association either on loan or as = gift, Miss Jenkins stated.Among the more interesting -items on view at the Library is an 1844 sketch of the residence

Counc) of Service Clubs to meet with representatives of the Canadian Legion and the Westmount and Westward Rotary in order to discuss the problem arising from the eviction of servicemen\u2019s relatives from their homes under the Governe ment\u2019s current wartime housing agreements.\u201cIt is an appalling thought,\u201d stated Mr.Callard in an interview with the Examiner, \u201cthat wives\u201dand dependents of servicemen who are at present giving their lives for their country will be made to feel that the people that they have left behind \u2018will have no roof over their heads.\u201d Announcing the decision at the # \u2014+ Westmount Rotary Meeting last Wednesday to meet jointly on Tuesday, February 27, Mr.Cal- lard, who first raised the question of direct action at a meeting of the: Westward club held last week, expressed the opinion that the result of the coming meeting would take the form of a direct appeal to Ottawa to review the over-all housing situation, \u201cThere.are times when Demo- eracy must be forced to work properly, and thig.is one of those times\u201d asserted Mr.Callard.Questioned as to what steps he, as a representative of the Westmount Rotary thought might be taken to remedy the situation, Mr, Callard suggested that a board of appeal be set up by the Government to hear the complaints of landlord and tenant alike and thus impartially judge the relative merits of each individual case.\u2018 A second meeting will be call- ed to air the decisions of the Democracy.Ce : ; A.W.Callard .Must Be Forced group meeting Tuesday and te

attention.They come as believers in the Lord Jesus Christ\u201d, read the letter received last week by Joseph Irving Duguld, 2204 Gironard Avenue, correspondent for the Assembly that gathers in a primitive Christian way at the Draper Avenue meeting.The gallant Defender of Malta and his wife, Lady Dobbie, who have both \u201cendured hardness as good soldiers of Jesus Christ\u201d thus unobtrusively gathered with other simple believers to \u201cshow forth _ the Lord\u2019s death till He come.\u201d\"# \u2014\u2014\u2014F\u2014\u2014 With them were received in fellowship C.Stacey Woods, General Secretary for Canada of the Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship \u201c @nd Miss Lucille Munroe, Provin- @ial Secretary.General Dobbie himself chose and announced the last hymn, \u201cI am waiting for Thee, Lord, Thy beauty to see, Lord.\u201d There was no hurry in departure after the meeting, nor were any speeial seats provided at the gathering for the distinguished visitors.It was simply a meeting of believers with no thought of any of them for self, but all \u2018of Him Whom they came tg C.M.G., D.S.0., and Lady Dobbie meeting.However it is important until God opens up the way, Yours Truly, W.G.S, Dobbie.\u201d This, however, did not occasion General and Lady Dobbie\u2019s visit to N.D.G.and the letters were not mentioned in the long conversation Mr.Duguid had with the General after Sunday morning\u2019s meeting.It was simply the nearest Assembly, nearer than Rosemount, St.Antoine Street or the Gospel Hall, Wellington Street, Verdun, and Lady Dobbie has been in Assemblies all her fife, Sir William declared \u2018\u2018I was converted at the age of 14 and have served remember.\u201d LT.-GEN.SIR W.G.S.DOBBIE The Defender of Malta, who, with Lady Dobbie, as is their regular custom, gathered with a Believers\u2019 Assembly for private worship on this ectasion visiting N.D.G.Draper Avenue Grace Chapel.General and Lady Dobbie\u2019s personal worship is always in this simple manner among Believer Assembles (popularly known as the Plymouth Brethren) and he moved among them extensively in Britain before taking this tour under the auspices of the I.V.C.F.and Moody Bible Institute.His Sabbath mornings are purposely kept free for this reason.INVITED TO CANADA Mr, Duguid wrote General Dobbie in February of 1943 by Air Mail about the possibility of the British Government consenting to the General's visiting Canada and the U.S.A.on furlough.\u2018I am sure you will understand my motive:\u201d wrote Mr.Duguid, \u201cI do believe !t would be a splendid opportunity for further service to our blessed Lord in testimony.While the epie de fence of Malta is still fresh in the minds of the people of this country the Defender of Malta would be given a very enthusiastic and appreciative welcome, in your Lord Jesus Christ.\u201d THE GENERAL'S REPLY To which General Dobbie re- \u201cThank you kind suggestion that I should visit Canada and the Unit- plied in March 1943, for your ed States.I much appreciate it and, for many reasons, would like to do so.1 do not think ît at all 1 believe your visit would serve a double purpose.It would be a tonic to the pecple here in their all-out war effort and thousands would be blessed and encouraged by your convincing testimony to the power of God in answering prayer, and invincible faith in our the Lord since.\u201d LADY DOBBIE \u201cSCRIPTURALLY CORRECT\" The interviewer is both happy and proud to report talking to Sir William personally and having the pleasure of shaking bands with so God-fearing a gentleman: The Examiner was given the honour by the Géneral of writing this record with \u2018no strings attached\u2019 providing care in presentation was respected concerning Sir William\u2019s activities in.personal worship and The Examiner report scripturally correct in presentation of the Gospel.With this in view, The Examiner gladly quotes the personal testl- mony of so humble a man exalted by bis very humility.GENERAL DOBBIE'S TESTIMONY \u201cI gladly give my testimony to the saving and keeping power of * God in Christ.I came to know Him as my Saviour forty-seveh years ago, and all through my military service to the present day He has been my Saviour and Lord.Although I Have often and often been unfaithful to Him, yet He has never been unfaithful to me, nor has He let me down.I have always been sensible of the fact that my sins, which were forgiven me when I first accepted Him as my Saviour, were blotted out once for all, and that in spite of my failures I have become \u2018a new creature ip Christ Jesus.\u201d That realization has glven me a profound peace which none of the circumstances of army life in peace or war have been able '| to.disturb.I should also like
