McKague ofFort Francis, Ontario, recently pur- chased cattle in the Swan River Valley which were shipped by freight to Sleeman and then trucked to the McKague farm at Bergland. The cattle arrived in good condition and the follow- ing item is from the Swan River Star and Times: VALLEY STOCK ENROUTE EAST " Mr. A. W. McKague of Rainy River, Ontario, made a special trip to the Swan River Valley last week for the purpose of acquiring livestock. This was Mr. McKague's first visit to the area. "He arrived Thursday even- ing at 8:00 p. m. and by 1:00 p. m. the following day the deal was completed for 25 bred com- mercial heifers all from the herd owned by Dave Lumax. "Included in the deal was the loading of the animals which Mr. Lumax carried out last Monday morning and at 2:30 p.m. they were on their way east by fast freight to the farm of Mr. McKague. " This is understood to be somewhat of a record and could be the forerunner of many of the WROXETER Mr. and Mrs. Ross Coates, accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Jack Lucas of Listowel, were Sunday visitors with W. and Mrs. Russell Annet, Ethel.

Ed Sullivan's special tribute to the great cor - poser, from the magnificent Carnegie Hall in New York Cit}; was a magical hour of some of the finest music ever written. All the great songs he has writ- ten, and most of his are, would take hours to play, but Ed chose some of the most beautiful and presented fine variety. Chosen for the honor of presenting the songs were pop singers Peggy Lee and Steve Lawrence, opera star Roberta Peters, Broadway stars Nancy Douslault, Cesare Siepi, and the children's chorus from "Sound of Music", pianist Peter Nero, Arthur Fiedler and his Boston Pops Orchestra, and two performers whose success has been largely due to Rodgers' music: Gordon MacKrae from the movie versions of "Okla- homa" and "Carousel"; and Diahann Carroll from his latest hit "No Strings" now packing 'em in on Broadway. The highlights of the show would have to be the gorgeous opening song "It's a Grand Night for Singing"; the orches- tral versions of "Slaughter on Tenth Avenue" and "Carousel' Waltz"; MacKrae's rendition of the title song from "Oklahoma and the stirring finale, "You'll Never Walk Alone" from 'Car- ousel', with Mr. Rodgers him- self conducting the orchestra. No one will ever be able to equal this hour of entertainment; it was truly 'a grand night for singing', a great tribute to a great composer! After reading the many dis- paraging remarks about Holly- wood from stars now calling Europe their home*: it was nice to see that the magic is still there, on Arthur Godfrey's special tour on Monday even- ing.

IMPORTS PAY FOR EXPORTS WINGHAM BODY SHOP Tel. 746 P. O. Box 279 - WINGHAM, ONT. r all over the country hock everything but their eye-teeth to try their luck in 'show biz', I can't help feeling a little touch of remorse, tho', that so many movie companies are packing up sets and moving to location shooting in Europe, South America, etc., because with every plane ticket, they are crowding Hollywood farther into the background. The views of Television City, Holly- wood-and-Vine, ollywood-and-Vine, and the breath taking Hollywood Bowl, are enough to remind us that it is still the entertainment centre of the world and no-one should forget it. I do have one beef about it though: WHY are the people behind the scenes never mentioned in movies? I mean, particularly, the voices behind babies (Jerry Hausner), cartoon characters (June Forday), and especially the voices behind singers, like Loulie Jean Nor- man. Although I've heard that lovely voice many times, I've never heard her name, nor did I know she even existed. A well-known actress can com- pletely captivate an audience with a voice that isn't even her own, then be talked about for years after. I say, let's give credit where it is due, to the real talent, whese faces and names are hidden. It was a real treat to see Elaine Grand back in Canada, even if it was only for one evening. And she was lovely to watch, after seeing Donnalu Wigmore, who looks like she's smelling flowers most of the time! A very successful American series has now made its debut on a number of Canadian stations, including' our local one. (Thurs- days, 7:00) It is "Candid Cam- era", and is just what the title implies, pictures taken by a hidden camera to catch candid acts of people who aren't aware they are being filmed for nation al television. It has been going strong for a number of years in the U.S. and it is not hard to see why. It is one of the funn- iest shows on TV, because it stars our fellow man and we all love to laugh at him. Its hosts are Durward Kirby, who is Gar- ry Moore's right -hand -man, and Alan Funt, who first contrived the idea for the show. Female guests appear from week to week, such as Dorothy Collins, Betty Johnson, etc. The first show last week, was one of their weakest efforts; watch for even more hilarious subjects to be covered before the end of the season. I am only sorry that they don't bring their cam- era up into Canada, so we could guffaw at our best friends! 4. This week's special viewing highlights are few but look most promising: the yearly Danny Kaye special which I will be re- viewing next week; and next Monday's (19th) special "Fest- ival" production of " The Gon- doliers" starring Douglas Camp bell, Ilona Kombrink, andJack Creley. This Gilbert -and -Sul- livan hit was filmed this sum- mer for CBC -TV at the Strat- ford Shakespearean Festival where it met withg reat success, If the first two G & S produc- tions, "H.M.S. Pinafore" and "Pirates of Penzance" are any example, this should be a high- light of the season, so don't miss it! And here's a reminder for the small fry, don't forget the big Santa Claus Parade, live from Toronto, on Saturday morning, the 17th, at 9:45 a.m. Poppy Sales Reached $385 Lloyd Carter, who was in charge of Poppy sales this year for the Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 180, reports that $385 was collected. This figure is just a little over that of last year. Poppies were sold on Thursday arld Fri- day evenings and all day Sat- urday. Wingham Advance,Tirztes, Thursday, Nov, 14, 1932 - Page 5 or 44- 014iin*,60 Christmas Gift List All from Currie's Speaker Urges All Co-operate The board of directors of Mid - Western Ontario Development Association met in the Waterloo council chambers last Wednes- day afternoon. In the evening a dinner meeting of Zones 3 and 4 of M.O. D. A. (Waterloo and Wellington Counties) was held in the Waterloo Lutheran Univer- sity niversity auditorium. Greetings from Waterloo were extended to the association by Mayor James Bauer, and from Wellington County by Warden G. H. Whitelaw. The president of M.O.D. A. , Ross Savauge, of Seaforth, outlined the work pro- gramme for the coming year, and made a plea for the support of every municipality in the area. The address of the evening was given by Dr. Ralph Kreuger, professor of Geography of Water- loo aterloo University. His address featured "Planning or Chaos", which referred particularly to the Kitchener, Waterloo, Guelph area with its rapidly in- creasing population. Areaplan- ning, he said, is a vital neces- sity. He felt that there should first be an inventory of resour- ces; then definite plans laid; then these plans implemented into action. He told of a piece of land in Huron County that was purchas- ed for $50,00 an acre, and con- sisted of stumps and swamp land. The purchaser, a native of Hol- land, prepared the land for the growth of certain crops of veget- ables and the same land is to- day valued at $1,000 an acre. The Economic survey and Feasibility study, now being con ducted by M.O.D. A. in the Mid -Western Ontario region (consisting of Huron, Perth, Waterloo and Wellington Count- ies) is laying the groundwork for a planned future for these areas. Dr. Krueger was very critical of municpalities that did not co-operate with M.O. - D.A., as he felt they were not playing their part in the future development of their own area. Dr. Kreuger was introduced by H. C. Goos, of Preston and thanked by J. D. Oaks of Guelph. Both are past presidents of M. O. D. A., and Mr. Oaks has recent- ly been elected president of Ontario Regional Development Council. All four Huron directors were present at both meetings, Mr. Murray Greene of Exeter; Mr. Robt. Squire of Goderich; Mr. Leonard Winter of Clinton and Mr. Ross Savauge, of Seaforth. Society Seeds Finish Project The Bluevale Society Seeds held their final meeting of the project, "Dressing up Veget- ables" , in the basement of the United Church, Two labels from canned or frozen vegetables were turned in by each member for the roll call. Home assignments were given. It was decided to hold an- other meeting to complete the record books. The national anthem was sung and pie and ice cream was served for lunch.
