In my apartment, it's a green telephone, Before the phone was installed, several people asked me what color T had ordered. "Green," I answered excitedly. My girl friend just mumbled, "Green, oh." She looked a little strange, but I didn't think anything of it at the time. My sister was a little more to the point, "Green!" she splut- tered. "What do you want green for?"

Last week's French musical, Irma La Douce, enjoyed out- standing attendance records, challenging even those of last year's biggest hit Hello Dolly, Set at Mumberly Manor, Suffolk, at the turn of the century, this week's melodramatic spoof is filled with high intrigue and hilarity, The unfortunate speculation of Sir Roger Mum- berly, lord of the manor, has thrown the family into narrow straits. The dastardly villain, Marmaduke Mayhem, plots to take possession of Mumberly Manor and its lovely young mistress Daphne. Daphne, however, has given her heart to Roger Stoutheart. Only the return of the long lost brother, Jack, from `.`The Canadas" with the secret of the inheritance can save the day. A rousing example of good old- fashioned innocence and villainy. The cast of The Mumberly Inheritance includes many Playhouse favourites. Stan Lacey and M. E. Evans are both very familiary names to area theatre- goers. Mr. Evans has appeared in seven past Playhouse produc- tions, and Mr. Lacey has per- formed on the Grand Bend stage every season from. 1973 to date. "Daphne" is portrhyed by Kathy Millard, and Chris Benson who appeared as "Andy" in Star- Spangled Girl plays brother "Jack". Other cast members include Stanley Coles, David Douglas, Trulie MacLeod and Nancy Palk. Rob Craig, a member of last season's Huron Country Playhouse Young-Players is Musical Director of this production. Peter McConnell, Director, is another Playhouse veteran having directed and appeared ih many past Playhouse produc- tions. The Mumberly Inheritance runs Wednesday to Saturday nights at 8:30, with a preview matinee at 2:00 on Wednesday, and an additional matinee per- formance Saturday at 4:00. Again this week, the Playhouse is sponsoring • No Strings Attached, a puppet company for children, who will be performing on the Playhouse stage Saturday July 24 at 11:00 a.m. Tickets for this children's show are $1.00 for children and $2.00 for adults.

What's wrong with a green telephone? In my yellow kitchen with its orange and green trim, I think the phone contrasts rather attractively. Its shade almost matches the garbage canand the handle of the tea kettle. My landlady lent me a lamp, which is also green. It clashes with the phone, but if I set it in one corner and the phone in another, no one will ever notice. Sitting near the window, the green telephone brings out the color of the tiny leaves in the curtains. Even after the phone was in- stalled though, the critics wouldn't change their tune. My girl friend glanced at the phone and then turned her back to it. My sister muttered; `To each his own." But my niece again voiced her thoughts. After touring the rooms, she concluded, "Well, • Elaine, I like your new apart- ment, except for that green phone. Couldn't you get any other color?" I explained that I couldn't get yellow, and red seemed too loud; beige and white were too or- dinary, and black was too basic. Green looked just right. I've come to the conclusion the critics are jealous. Their phones are the plain old black and white models, and they're probably kicking themselves because they didn't have the imagination to choose a green one. I see nothing odd about having a green telephone in my kitchen. After all, those of you with color tv know that Dr. Welby has a yellow phone in his kitchen. And I've heard that President Ford has a red telephone in the blue room of the white noose. Or is it a blue phone in the red room of the white house? If Dr.Welby and President Ford can have yellow and red phones, why shouldn't I have a green one? It makes an excellent con- versation piece. When someone comes in, I nod toward the corner and quiz, "See my green phone? How do you like it?" Yesterday I finally found someone with a taste for decor. One of my nephews walked into the kitchen and, with no promp- ting from me, announced: "I really like, your phone, Elaine. The color really looks nice in here." Thank you, Dave. You must have inherited your good taste from your aunt. Huron County 4-H club members will be hosting four 4-H club members from the province of Nova Scotia on a 9-H Exchange program during the two week period of July 19 to August 2. The Nova Scotia delegates arrived on Monday. During their first week in Huron the Nova Scotia delegates will be hosted by the following people: Cindy Northup, Windsor, N.S. with Diana Brand, RR 3 Clinton; Willie Vander Linden, Heatherton, N.S. with Ken de Boer, RR 1 Lucknow; Margarete Zillig, Scotch Village, N,S. with Dianne Oldfield, RR 4 Seaforth; David Bent, Lawrenceton, N.S. with Don Carter, RR 3 Blyth. From July 26 to August 2 they will be hosted by : Cindy Northup with Elaine Stewart, RR 1 Kirkton; Willie Vander Linden with Murton Brock, RR 1 Granton; Margarete Zillig with Barb Miller, RR 3 Exeter; David Bent with Alan Powe, RR 2 Centralia. During their stay in Huron the 4-H Youth Council has set up several activities for the Nova Scotia delegates. On the evening of July 20 a "Welcome to Huron County" party was held at the Clinton High School. The evening program consisted of swimming at the Clinton Swimming Pool and concluded with games, dancing and refreshments at the Clinton High School. On Sunday, July 25 the 4-H Youth Council will take the delegates and their hosts on a Progressive Dinner Party. This dinner party will start in the north part of Huron and conclude in the south part later in the evening and will give the delegates an opportunity to see some of the countryside in the County. On July 31 the 4-H Council has planned a 4-H Campout for the delegates at Bails Grove near Auburn. Starting at 2:00 p.m. the delegates and their hosts will participate in swimming, games, a Pot Luck Supper, dancing and a camp fire sing song. On August 2 the Nova Scotia delegates will be returning home and the Huron 4-H exchange delegates will be going with them. Those 4-H club members who are going to Nova Scotia include Barb Miller, RR 3 Exeter; Elaine Stewart, RR 1 Kirkton; Alan Powe, RR 2 Centralia ; and Ken de Boer, RR 1 Lucknow. This exchange is a new venture for the Huron County 4-H Program and it is hoped that inter-provincial exchanges of this nature will continue in 1977.
