Don Dickloon, pre- Too long under a bushel • Here's a man who does a great deal to benefit his fellow-citizens. Yet for a long time he's been "hiding his light under a bushel". Anyone looking up Main Street, for instance, might never guess that he had a hand in establishing some of its fine new stores, hotels, office or apartment buildings. But he has. Nor would many people realize that they may have him to thank in part far their homes. Or for the pure water that flows from the faucets. Or the electricity that serves them so many ways at the flick of a switch. Every week workers take home pay from industries that this man helped to develop, But they're unaware of his connection with their jobs. He even has an influence on his fellow-citizens' health and the length of their lives Who is he? He's the typical life insurance policyholder — a man who might be any one of millions of Canadians. And it is through investments of his premium money that he helps create public works, homes and industries in their communities. Life insurance money is also contributed to medical research projects seeking to banish deadly diseases. So, if you own life insurance, get out from under that bushel—and take a bowl AT YOUR SERVICE! A trained life underwriter — representing one of the more than 50 Canadian, British and United States life insurance companies in Canada — will gladly help you plan for your family's security and your own needs in later years.

Alton as clowns. Isobel Dennis and Marjorie MOCen" xis changed the scene by presenting us With a beautifully sung duet, "Bar- carolle" from Tales of Hoffman by Offenbach. Te keep in the musical mood the glee Club sang, "Turn Ye to Me," "Just a Wearyin' for you" and "Who Built the Ark," which all show- ed much practice and were greatly enjoyed. They were papably led by Mrs. W. MacDougall, who anent much time in working with them, and were accompanied on the pleno by Neil Eadie. The next item was made up of four Parts ell about sailing, and entitled the "Opry-etty With Bathy Ballet," The first part was simply entitled "Heavehol" with Bob Barwick and Helen Haines as Laddie and Lassie and heavehoers, Bill Connell, Don Edgar and George Hell. Clifford Celia tes then delighted all with a mono- logge "A 4ailor SOY." "On Moonlight DV" next drew the applause of the crowd for its fine performaace. Con. oared lights focused on a sextette who sang the sang and who appeared to- be in ship with a large silvery moon above them, Another encore number was the "Bathy Ballet" with a number- of girls, from grades 10 and 11, dress- ed in old-fashioned Waning suits dan- cing to variations of the song "Row, Row Your Boat" and accompanied by a chorus of girls and the roil of a drum, Their handsome lifeguard ap- peared in the 'character of John Craw- ford. Marie Elliott, a member of the Brus- sels Lions Club Band played on her euphonium the solo, "Morning Glory" which was exceptionally well done. A very amusing one-act play "The Castle of Mr, Simpson" directed by Miss Mc- Gregor was presented to a delighted crowd. Characters were as follows: Mr. Simpson by George Porter, Mrs. Simpson by Jean Hobden, Irene, Lib and Anabelle, their daughters, by Jean Irwin, Isobel Dennis and Catherine Keating respectively and their boy- friends, Tommy Wilkins by Bob Mc- Murray, Charles leferrewether .by George Hall and Fred Parkes by Don Dickison, This comedy showed Mr. Simpson's fight for peace in his home with three teen-age daughters like his, A piano accordion solo entitled the "Easter Parade" by Lois Blair brought a round of applaud and an encore as well. Then a horrible thing happened! The lights went out! But, it became apparent that it was for a purpose, for soon, to the tune of "The Dance of the Dry Bones" a number of skel- eton hands did a very "bony" dance. worse than that two skeletons soon came wiggling onto the stage and after this fright, they did a five step which `showed us that they were very flexible skeletons. This was performed by, girls of grade eleven. The Glee Club ended the program singing "Make Believe," "Mother Goose Nonsense," "I'll See You Again" and appropriately sang "Goodnight" as their last number. This ended the concert as well, The Queen was sung and everyone jammed towards the doors and home, I hope, after a very successful program.

"Of course I will, why,' bless your heart, I'll marry you, we'll never part." So they settled down to married, life, And Betty made a loving wife. But, after a year there came the twins— Bill washed the napkins and pinned the pins, They fought about money and about whey threw- the dishes and the . little two: -1,1 t he ,marriage could follow such , a P011tae Se they went tp Reno and got. 4 voice.

Mr, Rayne brought one to The Ban- ner office last week which he had cap- tured from a hollow tree that had been felled by himHelf. As a. matter of fact, there were two lit the tree but one managed to get away, Th little animal Is very rarely seen as It searches for its food at right and nests during the day. It is some- what larger than a chipmunk though similar in Dolour tp the red squirrel, Its legs are webbed and folds of loose skin on either side of its body flatten out like a wing when the legs are stretched out in front and out behind which permits it to glide from one tree to another or to the ground. Its tail, which is flat, resembles that of a beaver and is used as a rudder to guide it in its flight from tree top to tree. top. According to Mr. Bayne the little beast is capable of gliding as far as a hundred feet from a tree top and he has seen them glide from a high , - sweep up to the point froth, which At- started- .pp.yu.p plain to release the ftY,P. ing 'pqtdrrel near the spot where he found U.—Orangeville RAnner, To Make Rordelaise sauce, chop up a small onion and a clove of garlic, mix thew with brown sauce to Which has been added a tumbler of Canadian claret.
