PLANS HEM MADE FOR NEW SWIM • A newly-formed school area board in Kinloss Township is working on details for a possible five-room school on a four-acre property on the Eadie farm, west of Holyrood, Four classrooms and a recreation room have been Pro- posed by the board; Kinloss Town- ship council has approved plans to finance tile construction.

Program "Lord, teach us to pray," is the .1961 theme in a ten-year program in spiritual .advance of the Huromm Diocese of the Anglican Church now in lie third year. A series of "quiet clays," one-day retreats for the clergy, opened this year's phase, The "quiet days" was a prelude to Lent, Rt. Rev, 'George N. Lux- ton, Bishop of Hutton, has recent- mended to the clergy that Sunday morning sermons during Lent deal with player, that parishes develop schools of prayer, that clergy fos- ter prayer groups and that dio cowl groups ineornotate specie. erriphasis on prayer in their 1961 programs. In a statement outlining thn program. Bishop, Latxton said, "Vih are asking the clergy to Make thin a Lea of prayer, hot only for the Study of prayer but also for tiny exercise and experience of pray et." "Orpheus ill the Underworld' will be perforthed by the Cana- dian Opera Company on Friday, March 10th, at the Wingham Dis- trict High School, The Wingham Lions Club is sponsoring the opera, "Orpheus in the Underworld" was first produced at the "Bouf- fes Parisiennes" in Paris exactly 102 years ago (October 21, 1850, The production was under the -dir- ection of its composer- conductor, Jacques Offenbach, and became Suck a hit that it reached the un- heard-of total of 228 perform- ances. It is known that the clos- ing of this secceseful run was only due to the fact that the exhausted cast needed a rest! Offenbach not only ridicules the puritanism and hypocrisy of his (and all) times, Ite also makes a parody of the old Greek legend and the music of Gluck's serious opera "Orpheus and. Eurydice" (written about 100 years earlier). Offenbach hilariously changes the legend in hie satirical opera: Or- pheus does not want to have his wife Eurydice back, once she has abandoned him and is living com- fortably with Pluto in the Under- world. The Public Opinion forces Orpheus, for the sake of his good name, to search for his wife, How- ever, the mortals lose and the gods smile maliciously, whining their battle against the human concep- t tion of morality and changing in this way the well-known course of mythology. The Offenbach score sparkles with an overwhelming abundance of musical contrasts: sweet shep- herd songs, wild bacchanales, am- using coloraturas, tipsy couplets, sleepy minutes, startling waltzes, and exciting ean-eans follow one another in a breathtaking pace and give the audience the oppor- tunity, while enjoying themselves thoroughly, to form their owe )p- inion about Olympic pomp and "perfection", about frivolity and, sin, morality and decency, of all times. Therefore it is, above ell. great fun to see and hear a work with such a clever and amusing plot and with such a brilliant musical score. The freshness of the music, the hilarious situations and witty dialogue make "Orpheus in the Underworld" a truly lov- able work written by one of the great operatic geniuses, Mission Band at United Church BUTEVALE---The Mission Band met in the -United Church during the morning service on ,Sereclay with an attendance of 32. Rose- mary Nicholson presided. The roll call was "What I like best in winter."
