A TALL ORDER


TWO pairs of khaki shorts and a pith helmet might sound a tall order. But they could make or mar the success of a concert to be given jointly by men and women members of Clitheroe branch of the Royal British Legion. .


• The concert, with sketches, is part of the entertainment at a buffet dance on November 7th, when members are hop­ ing to raise money for the poppy appeal fund. The long and short of it is, if

instruments and their uses.- During a very entertaining

jokes in Lancashire dialect — another of her interests.

CHIPPING BROWNIES BOOST FUNDS


SUBJECT TO ONE MONTH’S NOTICE OF WITH­ DRAWAL


THE theme “Riches”, was used by the children of St Leonard’s School, Langho, during the church’s anniver­ sary service on Sunday which, by tradition, is conducted by the scholars. The children gave readings and there were songs and


music by the choir. The contribution of one class, “A sense of values,”


told the story of Jimmy Savile’s work in raising money for charity. Another class illustrated the “Riches of creation,” among them shelter, food and clothing.


The final two items were “Enjoying the'riches of


nature” and “People are riches,” which included a story about blind Bartimaeus.


As well as leading the congregation in hymns, the


school choir sang ‘‘Daisies are our silver,” to the accompaniment of recorders and other instruments.


In our picture the children are seen in church with the


various writings and pictures they used to illustrate their stories'.
