Are the long summer days stretching into eternity? Well, perk up, here's an idea that will keep you and your friends laughing for hours. Make some jug band music! Jug band music started years ago when people couldn't afford to buy real pianos, guitars, or drums. Every person in a jug band creates an instrument from things found around the house. Get a group of people together and make a band. Many materials for making jug band instru- ments come from the kithchen — take a look around and create some music makers. An elas- tic band around a cake tin can be snapped in rhythm. Egg beaters sound like the twang of electric guitars. Experiment. To make a kazoo, wrap some wax paper around a comb, put it to your lips, and hum. Another type of kazoo can be made by cutting the bottom out of a paper cup, covering the top with . wax paper, (held in place with an elastic band) and humming on the paper. Drums are easy to make. All you need is a pot, tin, metal bucket, cardboard box — anything hol- low will do — and something to hit it with. Try all kinds of containers and see how many different drum sounds you can make. You could always put some dried beans in a pie plate, glue or tape another plate on top, and voila!, you have a tambourine. A few stones inside a jar or tin makes another type of tambou- rine. Cymbals can be made by banging two pot lids together or hitting a metal pie plate with a spoon. For different notes, fill some glasses with various levels of water and tap gently with a spoon. Once you make your instruments, find a few friends, and pick a good song, you can rehearse to your heart's content. After a little practise you can put on a show!

Ruth Hayman -Elliott Farm tax rebate report......... • from page 1 residences receiving the same services, in- cluding educational taxes. The concept of an acre of land under a farm residence being assessed separately for tax purposes is considered "unaccep- table" in the task force's report. The ori al report called legislating the 50 perce rebate a "satisfactory alter- native". as amended at the direc- tors' meeting to ay the rebate would be satisfactory anti 9a program incorporating the other s ions previously mention- ed can be de eloped. Federation member Doug Garniss said he was concerned about the original wor- ding. "We're putting ourselves m the position that that's all we'll ever get," said Mr. Garniss, who initially called for omitting the legislating idea. But amending the report was considered better than omitting the idea. George Underwood of Wingham, a strong opposer to the proposed 100 percent farm tax rebate, thanked the federation for the opportunity to prepare the report. "Our concern is reflected across On- tario," said Mr. Underwood. Once, the report was approved, Clete Dalton of R.R.3 Goderich called for the directors going to the July meeting of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture in St. John "s helps you St. John Ambulance volunteers form part of the emergency response back up in communities all over On- tario. ' Its Brigade members were on hand to help during the 1954 Hurricane Hazel, the 1980 Mississauga evacua- tion, a 1979 tornado in Woodstock, a flood in southwestern Ontario in 1968. If you're looking for volunteer work, the St. John Ambulance Brigade would welcome you. Toronto to vote in opposition to the govern- ment's proposal. The OFA will be holding a vote on the proposal during which time votes such as the one held in Huron this past spring will be considered. Mr. McQuail explained the county federation could not dictate to the regional directors, noting that they are accountable to federation members at the regional meetings. The regional directors will be elected at a meeting Sept. 8 at Londesboro Public School. Dalton continued to press for stipulating how the directors should vote and sug- gested the Huron federation get to other counties and speak in opposition to the pro- posed tax rebate. Merle Gunby of R.R.1 Dungannon, a regional director, admitted Dalton was probably referring to him when he asked for stipulations on how directors should vote at the July meeting. "If you're going to direct the directors, you don't need a provincial organization," said Mr. Gunby, adding that the issue will be debated in Toronto and a decision to either support or oppose the government's proposal will be made. Debate ensued with McQuail concluding time shouldn't be wasted now that the task force's report has been accepted. "I'd hate to see us get back into divisive, negative debate," said Mr. McQuail.

The study was carried out in con- nection with the history course and to permote in- terest in family research and community history. Pre-school grads A graduation of a different kind took place in the library at the end of May, when the children who attended the pre-school story hour once a week in the library had their own graduation. After listening to stories, playing games and enjoying snacks the children had their first bus ride home from school. Kindergarten graduation on June 24 attracted a good number of parents who saw ts their children don mortar- boards and receive their diplomas. Both kindergarten classes visited Seaforth Hospital at the end of May. It was a good experience for the children to become somewhat familiar with the building and its staff and facilities, and the co-operation of everyone connected with the visit was greatly ap- preciated. A highlight of the Grade 1 year was a trip to the zoo at Grand Bend on June 9. Styx new album has a message by Janet Tench Hi! This is the first of many articles written under the heading "The Music Box". What is "The Music Box"? It's album reviews, write- ups about music trends, local band interviews and any other interesting facets of music information that will be of interest to the community. For example, I have planned a review of Styx's Kilroy Was Here, and an interview with a member of the band formerly known as After Hours. I have hopes to compile information and dates for musical events in the future, such as the Ellison bus trips to Toronto. If you like to be part of the music scene, local and commercial, I think you'll enjoy this column, so watch for it! This week, I'm reviewing the album Kilroy Was Here by the Boston based Styx. Styx has been putting out records for close to 10 years and it shows in Kilroy Was Here. The album is very professionally done; the beat is strong, the lyrics good, yet there are delicate touches that Styx is known for. This is another concept album from the band. It tells the story of a young rocker, Kilroy, who is imprisoned because a member of the MMM (Majority for Musical Morality) was killed at a Kilroy concert. Jonathon Lnance, an American who fights from under the repressive system tries to free Kilroy and deliver rock and roll to the masses. However the thread of the story is not easily followed by reading the lyrics. I fail to see where "Don't Let It End" fits in, other than as a single release that will become the "our song" of loving couples. The theme is not exactly original. It echos Orwell's novel 1984, with the exception that there is a happy ending. The album is a destined best-seller. It contains the hit singles, "Mr. Roboto" and "Don't Let It End." It's full of backward masking, and it's great party music. The album cover and inner sleeve have been noted for their originality. They tease with shots from the 10 - minute film that will be shown when Styx tours in July. Of interesting note is the fact that the entire album was produced in a solar powered studio, the first album to have been so recorded. In comparison to previous Styx albums, Kilroy Was Here is paunchier than Paradise Theatre, but it does not have the King Arthur magic of Grand Illusion. In fact it's the most serious look at society that Styx has ever done. They take a stand on Neo-Facism, religion, fanatacism and censorship, that alone makes the album worth buying. I give it an eight out of 10. APPLIANCE REPAIR Large or small, we'll fflx them all.... Our repair experts will have your appliance in tip top shape fast.
