HARRY wia,mms 111116633 RR'2 CLINTON HEATING OILS-GASOLINE GREAS-11101011,011S,- WHITE ROSE AUBURN — Harvey McGee, a life - long resident of this community, has been-'honoured by a short history of his life in a Galt. paper recently. Once called Huron County's Harry Lauder, Mr. Harvey McGee now makes his home in Galt, and the following article was written in the Galt paper. In difference to his Irish father, Huron County's Harry Lauder used to intersperse his program of Scottish songs with a lilting Irish tune. There's nothing like variety says genial Harvey McGee, who now makes his home at 33 Spruce Street, Galt. Now living in retirement, Mr. McGee looks back with nostal- gia upon the days when in swinging tartan and tam-o- shanter he imitated the fam- ous Scottish comedian and singer at fall fairs, garden parties and 'concerts all over Ontario. "I never played Galt," said twinkly-eyed Mr. McGee, "clos- est I ever came, was Ayr."' "During the war years I did a lot of entertaining at army camps, canteens, etc., but no matter where I was I always finished my program with a sacred number." During the 1920's Mr. Mc- Gee was a -member of a touring group, managed by Raymond Redmond. Although disbanded for many years, a close assoc- iation still continues between Mr. McGee and Mr. Redmond. Mr. McGee recalled a red letter day when accompanied by three friends he went to Toronto's Royal Alexandra Theatre to see the famous comedian in person, "We sat in the front row, Vii••••••.11, A DOLLAR SAVED /S A DOLLAR EARNED, THIS IS THE LESSON WE HAVE LEARNED at eilnw lit IL , SHOPPER'S t FRIEND bir.Emrs. s $WISE Thursday Evening Nov. 21-8:30 p.m. Front Orchestra 4.50 Rear Orchestra 3.50 Side Amphitheatre 2.75 Rear Amphitheatre 2.00 Fri., Sat.
