Nudging from the advance notices about -
p Trigon',•'71, it would seem it . will be an
evening of excellent drama for folks who
enjoy that sort of thing: a
There seems to be'plenty of variety in
"x:"' 'the: 'type of plays- ei"hg performed this
weekend during the event. It would
,eppear: there is' something for everyone.
A

While. the actors and actresses "vvTttt"
undoubtedly gain'the greatest amount, of
praise and attention , because of their
on-stage Performance's, there 'are many,
manw talented young people involved .
behind the scenes whom audiences -should
remember to appreciate:- As 'ami avid
theatre -goer must realize, the lighting, the
staging, the costuming and alLthe other
background work necessary to "produuce o
'play is all:important to the success_, of the
production.
Of cow's* a specialword of
commendation must go out to Mr, and
Mrs. Warren )Robinson vvho take such a
tremendous interest in this event.
Performances begin. at 8 p.n't. Friday
and Saturday evenings this weekend in the

With our presence at. Trigon '71. That's
the best way to show appreciation for
teenagers who use their time and their
talents in a way the whole community can
apillaud,:.and teachers who hav,,e faith in
the abilities of their students.
Last week I told the women
of Goderich and area how one
particular Goderich"woman; Mrs.
J. W. Wallace, was -promoting a
closer liaison betw'een;'th'e board
of 'education in -Huron -County,.
and 'the i teachers and educators
of the province,of Ontario.
This week I have news' ,of
another area woman, Mrs.
Warren '(Marion) Zinn; also a
member of the Huron County_

noted that some people accuse
Betty of taking away the job of
a • breadwinning husband, but '
Schwari';z doesn'tabiiy that. ,
"If she's taking away the job
,.of a man," he,saysr•"then how
come I can't 'get any mento
work for me?"
Schwartz said that men come
to look over the job, stay -for a ,
couple of days and then leave',
because of the "cold weather".
.' Now to be sure, Betty may be
somewhat unusual.' Not • every
woman would care to work with
men on a construction sit!. Yet
the . fact remains . that ,if Betty

, there -is is no real reason why she
should not 'be 'permitted to
continue on 'the job.
And whatys more, I believe
that Schwartz has openly told
'the story as it really : is .. '. and
'perhaps Schwartz has
unwittingly taken the lid off a
very, nasty kettle of fish, as far as
the ' male of,,, the species is
concerned.
,For years now, North
American women have . been
considered ' inferior as laborers
doing ' hard manual work.
Frankly, I prefer' it that. way. I
wouldn't want to swing .a shovel,
