"Wh'ere are you Going, Young Fellow my Lad", . The children sit, captivated by the ghost's Scottish brogue, and find themselves dreaming of the Yukon and Canada's northwest. The ghost really isn't a _ ghost at all, but professional actor Charles Hayter, 52. Hayter • keeps the memory of British -born poet Robert Service alive by touring back and forth across Canada twice a year entertaining, schoolchildren and other groups with Ms one-man show, "A Taste of Robert Service". He has also been to Australia with the show. During the summer of 1978, Hay ter recited daily in the garden of Robert Service's cabin"' in Dawson City, This is his eighth year doing the presentation. During the past few weeks, Hayter has en- tertained many groups in '°Huron County, including Central Huron Secondary School and the Legion in Clinton, Huronview, Colborne Central School, and Brookside school. "1 feel a kind of em- pathy with Service. After all, I was born close to where he was born (Hayter was born in Liverpool), I also moved to Scotland at a young age, then finally em• migrated to Canada " says Hayter who is a radio and television actor, in Toronto when he isn't on the road as the ghost of Robert Service. Hayter never did meet the famous poet, who died in France in 1958 at the age of 84. but it certainly seems. like he knew him. and while he i's'vn stage it certainly seems like his is him.
