Colborne operetta success
The students of Grades
6, 7 and 8 at Colborne
Central School put their
school in the limelight
again when they excelled
in their presentation of
the operetta The H.M.S.
Pinafore on Thursday
and Friday evenings,
April 26 and 27 in the
school auditorium.
John Kane, principal,
welcomed all and spoke
highly of the co-operation
of the students and staff
in making, the operetta
possible.
The stage presented an
excellent scene on board
ship with the blue-green
water and the almost real
sky with seagulls flying to
and from with some
almost ready .to light on
the ship's lookout where
one of the sailor lookouts
(Jeff Coulter) was busy
with a telescope vi=ewing_
thehorizon to the right
and left to watch for the
ship, commanded by the
Rt. Hon. Sir Joseph
Porter K.C.B. First Lord
of the Admiralty (Ken
Linner) approaching.
Other sailors (Sarah
Hoernig, Tammy White,
Sofia Rasa and Jennifer
Whitely) and boatswain
(Glen Feagan), sailor
Rafe Rackstraw (Jeff
Feagan) and sailor Dick
Dear Editor
Cancer aid?
Dear Editor,
This is springtime and
the violets are in bloom.
The 8-ish Medical
Journal says that violet
leaf tea is a cure for
Cancer if taken in time:
so it is a good time to
gather the leaves wash
and let dry.
Put a handful in a dish,
pour boiling water over
them, let steep, strain off
coloured water and drink
as much as possible. The
Red Clover blossom herb
put in with it is good too.
Dandelion coffee is also a
help.
The value of these
herbs consists in clearing
the poison from cancer
out of the blood stream
which takes down the
swelling and lessens the
pain. I do not know if they
will have any influence on
the cancer itself. It seems
to me that cobalt bomb
treatment or surgery
would be required for
that plus the herbs.
The doctor book says
thatcancer is caused by a
chronic irritation caused
by different things.
Tartaric acid in "pop" is
bad for causing cancer.
Beware of using "pop" as
a reducing agent.
For an outward cancer
bathe it with water to
which a few 'drops of
creosyl or creolin have
been added. This is a cure
for warts (tried).•
The Princess Margaret
hospital in Toronto is
working on the theory that,
cancer and warts are
related.
Yours truly,
" A.D. Allin.

Dear Editor,
When is the gullible
Canadian public going to
realize that Trudeau's
Bilingual Policy is the
greatest force for
disunity in Canada?
It' should have been
obvious from its inception
that it was intended
mainly to protect the
political base of the
Federal Liberals in
Quebec. Has it been
forgotten that since the
days of MacKenzie; the
Liberals would stoop to
any means to protect its
Quebec political strength
- Yes! even jeopardize'
Deadeye (Chuck Egener)
were down on the ship's
deck cleaning while they
sang, "We Sail the Ocean
Blue" with considerable
vim and vigor.
Little Buttercup { Lori
,Dykstra) seems to
always add a touch of
love as she comes on
board ship, singing her
song, `°I'm" Dear Little
Buttercup, Sweet Little
. Buttercup" as she tries to
sell her basket of trinkets
and toffees, etc. to the
sailors.
Captain Cocoran (Kent
Milburn) is thrilled that
his attractive daughter
Josephine's (Margaret
Vanderlinde) hand in
'marriage is sought by Sir
Joseph Porter K.C.B. but
is alarmed at the fact that
his daughter loves a
common sailor on board
his ship, none other than
Rafe Rackstraw.
The play carries on and
suddenly tfe lookout
sights the long awaited
boat and in an excellent
manner, the boat ap-
proaches with the oar-
smen (Chris Starkey,
Cathy B,altzer, Paula
Feagan and Mike Hogan)
bringing her alongside
the H.M.S. Pinafore. The
Rt. Hon. Sir Joseph
Porter K.C.B. with Hebe
(played by Lisa Argyle
and Teressa Cannon) and
the cousins' and aunts
(Sharon Lomas, Gwen
From, Joan Lamb and
Anna Marie Young) in
beautiful costumes are
soon all on deck singing
songs which fully explain
the reason for the
meeting and also with a
touch of sailor quibbling
back and forth. •
• Act two is also on the
ship's deck but at night
and the sailor Dick
Deade _quietly_informs
Captain Cocoran that his
daughter is in love with
one of the sailors on
board and plans to elope.
This is hard to un-
derstand and the fact that
she would step from
higher rank to marry a
common sailor is almost
too m(pch for her father or
our Canadian Active
Army Overseas rather
than enforce con-
scription.
In this vast North
American continent with
a population of 300,000,000
• of more, what chance has
a small pocket of French-
speaking people got to
spread their language?
It is physically . im-
possible for most
Canadians to have any
opportunity to hear or to
speak French. Certainly
French is and will be used
by elite groups - highly
educated groups, etc. as a
cultural achievement and
for business and social
reasons. The knowledge
of French for the masses
is an impossibility and in
addition it has no appeal
and certainly there is no
need to use it. It will
continue to be an im-
portant regional
language of a minority
and nothing more.
Governments in
Canada - ,Federal,
Provincial and in some
cases, Municipal, will
continue to expand their
services in French where
possible and where
numbers justify at, but
this -is a far cry from
Canada ever becoming
Bilingual The sym,holism
of the, present Bilingual
Policy of the Trudeau
government is false
misleading.
It has completely back-
fired and ,may well cause
the downfall of the
Trudeau Government. At
long last the voters may
realize that—the Liberal
Party is and has been for
over 50 years basically a
Quebec Party with
predominant strength in
Quebec. Is it any -wonder
we have so much
disunity?
There is no hope, for
unity as long as Mr.
Trudeau is in power. He
has become too abrasive.
He relishes power as an
elitist and his motives
have become suspect by
the Provinces and by the
public. The open hostility
between Mr. Trudeau and
Mr. Levesque worsens
our ,National Unity.
Only a national leader,
who has not been a centre
of controversy for 1'1' -
years such as Mr. Clark
can ever hope to mediate
our conflicting interests
and reduce our
prejudices.

Buttercup then ex-
plains in a song that she
raised Rafe Rackstraw,
the sailor, and Captain
Cocoran when mere
babies and changed their
identity and after the
song, the two men
changed their costumes
with Rafe Rackstraw now
in captain's uniform so
Josephine will be
