HERE'S A POT PARTY in progress but the names are witheld to protect the innocent.
Actually, these mind -blowers are amateurs, and are only acting out the part as a skit for a
"lit" program held recently at F. E. Madill Secondary School. It's good training for the .
Drama Club members. (Staff Photo)
Student participation
big thing in dramatics
Student participation is the big
thing in 'dramatics as studied at
F. E. Madill Secondary School.
Somewhere between 150 and 200
students are involved in varying
degrees through the school
drama club or in more formal
classes in which possibly 45 are
taught by staff member Paul El-
gi e .
The Advance -Times reporter -
photographer attended dress re-
hearsals for a recent series of
skits being prepared for a "lit"
meeting and found Mr. Elgie.di-
reeling the session from lighting
effects to getting the right ex-
pressions on the faces of pseudo
"pot" smokers.
Paul was in a number of high
school plays himself and hasn't
forgotten what it's like on that
end of things. It encouraged him
to study drama at Pasadena
Playhouse and he has been in-
volved with Little Theatre groups
in Ontario, notably at London
where he directed and also took
part in one of the. Northern On-
-tariO ,drama festivals. He also
was involved in the "Purple
Patches" activities at University
of Western Ontario and has
maintained his interest in theatre
since high school days.
Enthusiasm of the participants
has got to be the big .thing, and
here the students themselves are
given as much scope as possible,
and encouraged to write their
own creative ideas as they ger-
minate.
On top of formal studies, club
activities and seminars, a major
dramatic production, possibly a
musical involving the maximum
number of students, taking in all
the on and off-stage jobs will
materialize.
Children told
giving rodentandsi-
self sacrifice
BELGRAVE — White Gift, Sun-
day was observed in Knox United
Church on Sunday. George Proc-
ter, superintendent, gave the call
to worship. -
The members of the intermedi-
ate. bpys' and girls' class read the
Psalm in unison. Three of their
members, Doreen Taylor, Clif-
ford Branton and Marjorie Nixon
read scripture passage related to
the Christmas story and gifts.
The envelope 'contributiens,
which this year are being sent
through the United Church for a
• needy cause, were collected in
two small decorated baskets by
Howard Roberts and Gary Hop-
per.
Rev. John Roberts spoke main-
ly to the members of the school
who were seated in the front
pews. He chose "Gifts" 'as his
subject, comparing those given
by prospectors of the Klondike
Gold Rush, when gold was so
plentiful that its true value was
lost, to gifts which demand true
sacrifice. He chose three men of
the gold rush as examples of real
sacrifice: a surveyor, a police-
man, Sam Steele, and a Roman
Catholic clergyman, William
Judge who were outstanding in
honest and sacrificial giving. He
stated that to have real meaning
a gift must make demandson
oneself.
The large choir, with Miss
Brenda Johnston as organist,
contributed a fine Christmas
number "Ring, Bells of Christ-
mas". 1
The service was much appreci-
ated by the congregation.
A reformer is someone who
wants his conscience to be your
guide.
