Julie, 11, won first prize at the Bayfield Fall Fair for her scarecrow outfit. She, along with dozens of other children, and a few moms, made up a very special part of afternoon parade that wound its way through the village streets. (Shelley McPhee photo) At the Playhouse ,.I Music Man is marvellous BY JASON AINSLIE A strong performance of The Music Man by the Huron Country Playhouse company brought a capacity audience to a standing ovation on opening night last Wednesday. Of particular note in the prodection was the choreography, by Allan Lund. In the two -and -a -half hours' duration, hundreds of dance routines were executed with fluent precision, strengthened• by the addition, of some excellent gymnastics. The music, directed by Barbara Young, was a big delight for this audience as well. Interruptions for ;applause followed many numbers in the musical score which in- cluded old favorites like Seventy Six Trombones and a beautiful barbershop rendition of Goodnight Ladies. Intricate vocal feats such as Pickalittle and the opening collage of the travelling salesmen on the train held theatregoers in awe of the vast talents assembled on the stage. The Music Man is set in the American mid -west in 1912. It is the story of a huckster, Harold Hill (Scott Walker), who comes to River City, Iowa, to hustle the villagers for their money under the guise of setting up a children's band. His fast -talking ways fool everyone in the village except the stalwart Miss Marian Paroo (Charlene Shipp), the librarian. local music teacher, and spinster, who understands Hill as the phoney he is, yet loves him for the happiner s he brings to the village. Charlie Cowell (Tom Arnott), as the villain, offers a sinister, Dillinger-like performance as he wrestles Harold Hill out of the villagers' hearts. Another character of note is Marcellus Washburn (John Heath), who gives the play some comic relief with his wide-eyed and wheeler-dealer mannerisms. Child and youthful actors make up close to half the numbers of the- cast, and these handed in sensitive performances that complemented the talents of the professional leads. Posed before elaborate sets, designed by Alistair MacRae, the visual effects, costuming and lighting were neither lacking nor patent in the context of the .plot. More importantly, each of the actors appeared at ease in his or her role, and a strong rapport created between the audience and company was evident when the house applauded in unison to the rhythm of the music after the closing scene. Dancing, music, acting and warm en- tertainment are just four good reasons for not missing Huron Country Playhouse's final 1981 production of The Music Man.

FOUR SECRETS OFA SUPER NEW FAMILY HOME THAT CUTS HEAING.BILLSUPIO90% YOU CAN HEAT SUPER ENERGY- EFFICIENT NERGYEFFICIENT HOMES FOR $50 TO $200 AYEAR—TODAY! • It costs $500 to $1,000 to heats typical Canadian house. But there are super energy-efficient homes coming on the market that heat for $50 to $200 a year. They look like other new houses. They have various layouts — bungalows, ranch - style, splits, townhouses. Nothing far out- and no far out prices, either. They don't even use special materials, or exotic technology. What they do have are innovations in design and construction that have proven themselves through frigid Prairie winters. NEW SUPER ENERGY-EFFICIENT HOMES—TO SHOW YOU HOW It's time other Canadians shared these 'secrets. That's why the Government of Canada is supporting the construction of new super energy-efficient homes as part of the National Energy Program. Builders will construct some in every province. Even those Canadians who aren't in the market for a new home can use some of these innovations in their present homes. But the super homes are for sale, too. They're meant for living, not jut show. THE OPEN SECRETS OF A SUPER ENERGY-EFFICIENT HOME The four major items that make a home super energy-efficient may add up to $6,000 or 5 to 10% to the construction cost of a new home. But that's an investment which pays for itself in lower fuel bills, keeps on paying dividends for years to come and adds to the resale value of the home. MOST WINDOWS FACE SOUTH AND ARE ENERGY -CONSERVING The house is oriented to the sun with quality double -glazed windows facing south to soak up free solar energy. Fewer windows, face north and these may be triple -glazed to minimize heat loss. NOW, WHO NEEDS A BIG HEATING SYSTEM? To complete the energy -conserving features of these houses, they are equipped with automatic set -back thermostats and the most efficient of appliances and heating equipment. The heating system is miniature both in size and consumption, matching the space heating demands of the house. The water heater and hot water pipes are well insulated, and water temperatures are readily controlled. The major appliances all have low Energuide consumption ratings, and in some cases waste heat is captured and recirculated where it is needed. Efficient fluorescent lights are used wherever possible rather than incandescent bulbs. THICK WALLS ® UP TO A FOOT (30 cm) THICK—AND FULL OF INSULATION Insulation. And more insulation. That's one of the big secrets. The super energy-efficient house has two to three times more insulation than the average new home.

The attic is piled high with the stuff, and there's even insulation in the doors, making them RS1/ 1.7 or better. instead of the normal RSI/.35. You can't see super -insulation. but it's there. silently saving you money. IT'S AIRTIGHT BUT HEALTHY WiTH FRESH AIR The entire house is wrapped (on the inside) with an airtight vapour harrier to reduce excessive rates of air change. to keep out drafts, and to keep household moisture from entering the walls. The vapour harrier is carefully overlapped and caulked at all joints — even behind electrical boxes. Every joint and crack is completely sealed. Doors and windows are weather-stripped and super- tight. Air -lock vestibules reduce drafts when doors are open. in fact, the house is so airtight that mechanical ventilation tnay have to he provided. But even here. a unique air-to-air heat exchanger developed just for this purpose. or a small heat pump, saves energy by transferring heat from the outgoing air to the incoming fresh air. Ventilation is efficient and controlled — not wasteful and haphazard. BUYA SUPER ENERGY EFFICIENT HOME—OR JUST LEARN FROM ONE if you're in the market for a new home, here's what to do: . Some super energy-efficient homes may be built in your community within the next year or so. Buy one. if you can. They'll be bargains. • When looking at any new house ask for the features that make a home super energy- efficient. Even if you're not in the market for a new house you can still save energy and money in your present home. Here's where the EnerSave Advisory.
