Medals for the Stars of the Folk Gala

The folk gala with which the Baalbek festivals closed this summer met with a clamor of approval in all circles, official and popular alike.

And it was a gracious gesture when His Excellency the President invited the members of the popular committee to a tea party at the Beiteddine palace, in the course of which he conferred medals on Fairuz, Wadia Jarrar, Sabri al-Sharif, and Tawfiq al-Basha, in recognition of their commendable efforts.

Our heartfelt congratulations to all.
