By MBA "A -CHEW!" yes, we have sue - crumbed at last and are enjoying (?) an enforced rest with all the aches and pains and sneezes so prevalent among so asany in Clinton these days . We didn't. ever realize that there were so many= paints of the body could ache at the same time . How- ever, guess w'e'al live, alto' if we get this column written this week it will be; a ,miracle . 5 s * WE attended the Community Concert Aas'oeiation concent in Goderich Friday last . Altho' The News -Record has had com- plimentary •tickets for several years, we have never had the opportunity to meke use of them The lack of a car and other a responsibilities makes it almost impassible to get out of town for an evening ..' , However, we did get to Goderich through the kind- ness of a friend to hear the young Canadian pianist, Jahn Knight, who although only 27 years odd, has been in the musical limelight in Canada for ten years since he made an auspicious de- but with the Toronto Symphony `Orchestra in 1941—with a three year break for service with the RCAF . . . critic of the Toronto Star wrote of him "He is a normal boy with an abnormal development of music" ... • r 5 ,r. AND judging from Mr. Knight's concert the other evening that statement still Molds good • There were none of the artistic ,preteritions 'usually so obvious among performers in no matter what act ... It was nice to see a wholesome Canadian youth give an outstanding performance with- out the shaggy haired and welly motion props of the average vrituoso 5 ;, 5 I9.' was a fine, well-rounded concert that this young Canadian gave .. And it was an apprec- ietive audience that listened — spell -bound Goderich has been supporting these Commun- ity Concerts for some time now The result is the type of audience any artist would ap- preciate . . We did notice a number from Clinton and Hay- field among those present!. . 5 5* MR. Knight has been' known as a child prodogy . , . His moth- er, a concert pianist herself, dis- covered he had absolute pitch at the age of two .. •. He started • his piano study at four and made his first public appearance at five . At the age of nine, Augustus Bridle, famed music AN interesting rule of order in the British House of Cbanmons which we don't think has been, copied in Canada; is that a mem- ber must wear a het when rais- ing or discussing a point of or- der in the middle of a vote This rule caused a great deal of amusement in the Commons re- cently . . . Conservative Robert Turiton, a lawyer, stood up in the dignified House recently wearing a woman's modish blue velvet hat . . Amid stifled snickers, he raised a paint of order . . s * s CONSERVATIVE Hugh Molson, also a 'lawyer, then donned the hat to make a few remarks on the same subjeot . .: The toque, visibly wilting was next passed across the aisle to the Labor side of the House . .. Laborite John Rankin put it on and spoke briefly . . Finally, Laborite Hector McNeil, Secretary of State,for Scotland, recovered the het strode across to the Conser- vative benches end restored it to its owner—Miss Irene Ward . , 4 * WHATEVER tradition in the past caused this rule of wearing a hat when raising or !discussing a point of order, one thing is certain, it was done before women sat in parliament . In the situation mentioned above, Miss Ward's hat was the only one available . . . ri 4•414.4.14,00. ,.pIY,M'NW4.0JlO.4991 , 1 i TRUCK OPERATORS: Take Notice—For the protection of = County Roads, Police have been request- ed to see that half Load restrictions are observed.

AWE/ TMP�GW Westin' house Here's The Way They Used To Do It WITH THE MAPLE SYRUP SEASON almost with us, Herbert Neill, curator of the Huron historical museum at G'odeaich, is getting ready an exhibit that shows how our pioneer ancestors tapped the maples a century ago._ Instead of the neatly bored auger holes of 1951, the maple had a gash made in the trunk with an axe; Mr, Neili's exhibit illustrates how the gash was slanted, so the sap would drip from its lower corner. The wooden sap bucket is new; Mr. Neill hewed it from a log, in replica of old wooden buckets he hes collected. Also to be in the ' exhibit is an example of the shovel -shaped chisel that was used to make a cut in the tree in which she wooden spite could be fitted.
