But The Romaniacs create their own ver- sion of this tune plus much, much more with their energetic and fun - filled style of music. You'll never see anything like them. Critics la- bel their music, "ethno-fusion from the ethno-fringe" but audiences flock to see them at Folk Festivals and request their music repeatedly on radio stations across Canada. The Romaniacs invade the stage of the Blyth Memorial Hall on No- vember 12, 1989 at 8:00 p.m. as part of the Festival of Entertain- ment Series. These wacky comedians and mu- sicians describe their beginnings as follows. "As legend would have it, the four young brothers were in a daily line-up outside the govern- ment shoe store at East Bucharest Mall when Mama Romaniac mys- teriously ran off into the sunset. The lads were then "tragically sep- arated" and dispatched to far flung parts of the world, bul they kept Martens - Van Dyk Andrew Martens, son of Martian and Lit Martens, RR1 Dash- wood, and Linda Van Dyk, Sea- forth, daughter of Mrs. Margaret and the late Ted Van Dyk, Sea - forth, were married in St. James Church, Sealvrth, on October 14, 1989, with Frs.

One day, brother Steffy Levine Romaniac played a hotly metal album backwards and a message told him to go to Climax, Saskatchewan. There he was happi- ly reunited with his brothers at a Romanist Wedding, and after the tears of joy dried, they did the only natural thing and formed a family band: The Romaniacs." The story of The Romaniacs is an invention, but the recent success of the Vancouver band is very real. They are one of the most requested bands on CBC Radio. They have appeared on MUCHMUSIC, MTV, Midday, CTV and the Journal Diary (CBC -TV). The Romaniacs tour Ontario this fallwith their entertain- ing show of comedy and music. They will also appear at Victoria Jubilee Hall in Walkerton on No- vember 15.

It is a musical -visual pro- duction rarely experienced and be- hind all the yuks �re are many) is a dedicated group of players who present international quality music with style and class.

We are always so glad to see the Legion Ladies for Bingo. Thanks so much to Mrs. Pfaff, and her faithful helpers. Our poetry corner has been a real success. Once a month we gather together to listen or to share poems on recitations. We were pleased this month that Rita Smith brought along her Fourth Reader. There were so many poems that were re- membered well. Rev. Sheila Macgregor of Thames Road/Elimville United Fast food at Exeter 4-H EXETER - The second meeting of the Exeter 4-H Good Food Fast was on October 16 at 7:00 p.m. President Terri Snell opened with our 4-H pledge and roll call. Next Amy Walper took attendance, all members were present. • The group talked about conven- ience foods and learned about the. kinds of snacks you should eat. We split up into two groups, clean-up and cooking. The cooking group made three kinds of macaro- ni: Kraft dinner, homemade maca- roni and Stouffers frozen macaroni. The clean up group had to clean up our mess, make grape spritzer and go ahead in the book. While they cleaned up we read Chapter two and drank the spritzer. We all got to try the macaroni and make comments in our books. We dis- cussed what we would do for an achievement program. Terri ad- journed the meeting at 9:00 p.m. About town EXETER - Mr. and Mrs. Robert Parsons of Montreal visited recent- ly with the former's sister Olive and other relatives.
