James B. Thrasher of Natick was 
the speaker at the People’s Forum at 
the Village church last Sunday even- 
ing, and for about an hour, he enter- 
tained an appreciative audience with 
poems and stories of the French- 
Canadian people. The program em- 
braced selections from the works of 
Dr. William Henry Drummond, 
Burns, Roland Robinson, and Hol- 
man F. Day, and included a wide 
range of subjects, some of which 
were very laughable, others, filled 
with the simplicity and the pathos of 
the French-Canadian peasant life. 
Mr. Thrasher lived for many years 
among the people he has: chosen to 
describe and his naturally keen and 
sympathetic insight into their lives is 
supplemented by his skill in  story- 
telling, which is unmarred by a con- 
scious elocutionary effort. Among 
the readings, which Mr. Thrasher 
presented to his audience were The 
Habitant, The Hearly Bird, My 
Little Cabane, Joe Supernau, The 
Cure of Calumette, Antoine’s Ride, 
Philorum’s Canoe, How Joe Caught 
the Bull, Little Bateese, and The 
Last Portage. This program brought 
to a close what will be long remem- 
bered a most delightful winter of 
concerts, readings, and lectures at 
the church.
