South Huron Drama department is entering their production of 'Blind Dates' in the Sears Ontario Drama Festival. There are three levels to the festival; district festivals, regional showcases and all -Ontario showcases. South Huron is entered in the district festival at Listowel D.S.S. on March 27 at 7 p.m. The tickets are $6 in advance and $7 at the door. For advance tickets call (519) 291-1880. If they do well, they may move on to the regional showcase. There are 10 schools entered in the Listowel festival. This is South Huron's second year in the festival. The real focus of the fes- tival is not the competition but the chance to see a variety of great theatre and meet new people. During the festival the students will be going to workshops and learning new things from acting profession- als. Other performances will take place on March 29 and 30. The play 'Blind Dates' by Anna Fuerstenberg is about the transi- tion we all must move through from adolescence to adulthood. The play is directed by one of the school's drama teachers, Beth Jantzi. The cast consists of Toni Dejong, Liz Fitzgerald, Rayna Milne, Brian Negrijn, Angela Pickering, Gavin Poole, Mike Schwindt, Steve Sywyk, Jessica Verhoog, and Theresa Wilhelm. The crew members are Stephanie Pearson, Justin Krziyzek and Shari Beier - ling. The group has been rehearsing since the beginning of Febru- ary. We hope the community will support the school by coming to see the play. If you are interested in going, I will be trying to organize a car pool. You can call the school at 235-0880 and leave a message in the office. I will get hack to you. I hope lots of people will show their support. Best of luck to Ms. Jantzi and the cast and crew of 'Blind Dates'. We know you will do South Huron and Exeter proud.

The agreement re- quires most dispatchers to work through a strike. However, it allows them to refuse requests for routine, non -urgent calls. "Because the dispatch is in that strike position, unfortunately we can't provide the services to the community", says Brad Lucas, owner/operator of Zurich Ambu- lance Services and Seaforth/Clinton Ambulance Services. Although we are ready to respond to these regular, low priority calls, it will be impossible as the law pro- hibits the movement of an ambu- ;pnce except under the direction of dispatcher.•We want the public to " know that we are legally prohibited from accepting direct calls for ser- vice. Unfortunately, we are limited in our ability to serve the communi- ty as a result of the effect of the strike. Emergency calls and booked medical transfers should occur as normal. For further information, contact our services at 519-237-3770 (Hoffman Ambulance administra- tion) 519-236-4928 (Zurich Ambu- lance administration) or the Ontario Ambulance Operators' Association at 519-785-0318. Church of God women host World Day of Prayer Roberta Walker GRAND BEND - The women's group from the Church of God hosted the World Day of Prayer services in Grand Bend this year, held on Friday, March 1 at 2 p.m. Millie Desjardine welcomed all those who attended, and Morley Desjardine provided the organ mu- sic to accompany the hymns. Par- ticipants from local churches in- cluded: Evelyn Johnson of the Grand Bend United Church; Esther Stewardson and Kathy Adams of the Lake Huron Comrnunity Church; Maida Gaiser and Rita Chandler from Dashwood United; Dorothy White of St. John's -By - The -Lake Anglican; and Gera Pe- ters and Roberta Walker form Im- maculate Heart of Mary Catholic Church. Walker performed a spe- cial solo, "The Magnificat", a hymn to the Virgin Mary. The guest speaker was Evelyn Krueger, reflecting on the theme "God calls on us to respond." Cain asked God "Am I my brother's keeper?" after he slew his brother Abel. Are we responsible for the world's poor and needy in Haiti, Rwanda, Bosnia, or the homeless here in Canada? According to Christ, we arc re- sponsible. The life of Christ is tilled with examples of how we are to treat our neighbors, from the tale of the Good Samaritan to forgive- ness of the women taken in adul- tery. We are to love our neighbors as ourselves, to be a caring commu- nity that lifts, restores and makes whole. How can I make a difference? To one person at a time; through World Vision, Amnesty Interna- tional, the local food bank, letters and prayers. Pray for the potential to make a difference; to be the hands and heart of Christ here on earth. The collection raised $170 for the work of the Women's Inter -Church Council of Canada, for their pro- jects here and abroad. These in- clude start-up funds for a poultry/ egg business and for a craft/culture employment project, both in Haiti. Other grants provide educational training self-help projects, and in- formation about domestic abuse. The theme for the 1997 World Day of Prayer is "Like a Seed Which Grows Into a Tree," coming to us from the women of Korea. After the service, all those attend- ing met in the church basement for a time of fellowship and refresh- ments. in::r(: Nieves' ".tb '.,c , : ' of ur 90101"II"I• `•1s connected to BOSANQUET - North Lambton OPP reported during the night of Feb. 29, thieves stole a brown Chev pick-up truck from Ausable Produce on Goosemarsh Line.
