the area as a
spot which should be developed

said.
The mayor explained that with
the co-operation pf the Ausahle
Authority the PPnd had Ween

ready received in the summer
swimming program. He said that
when the Ugborne dam-bridge is
erected pne mile east of the pres
ent pond, there will be little
danger of further silting up.
Limited Budget
Reviewing the progress made
at the park by council, the mayor
said- only a small amount of
money could be spent each year
because of the limited budget.
Council has cleaned out the wild
growth between the bridge and;
the dam, sown grass seed, repair
ed the dam and .rerouted one
channel of the river to prevent,
erosion of the park road.
•Andrew Dixon, o f Exeter,
chairman of the public relations

S\ The PEEP SHOW
By
The interest with which “An
gel Street” was received has been
an encouragement to the Players
Guild. Already arrangements
have been completed for present
ing the play in Hensall, 'with a
possibility that, in the near fu
ture, it will be staged in .Grand
Bend as well.
.Next Monday evening an im
portant meeting will be held at
,8.0'0 in the town hall. All those
interested in any aspect of drama
are invited to attend. 'At that
meeting, the Guild hopes to en
rol a large number as active
members of the 'Club so that'
plans for the winter Play oan
proceed at once!
The Story of drama is one of
the most -interesting studies im
aginable. A detailed outline would
be impossible, but perhaps a few
facts will stimulate research.
Few realize that the origin of
this art form dates hack to an
cient Greece. It was the Fall of
the'year with the richness of ab
undant harvests that moved the
Greeks to perform religious sac
rifices to assure the return of
spring and new life. To show they
were unafraid to put their very
lives dn the care of the gods, the
Greeks chose for sacrifice their
richest treasure -- the strongest
male in the community, With
suitable prayer and ceremony,
the young mail was offered in
pagan ritual, after, his body was
carved into bits and. the pieces
scattered over- the field. Because
autumn was the time of plenty,
ah orgy followed; because the
priest had presented sacrifice, he
could hardly be a leader in such
an affair.
■Years passed; customs changed.
With the development of civil
ization, the Greeks only pretend
ed at sacrifice. The priest told
stories of the ancient heroes.
In the emerging dramatic form,
the tribe was the origin of the
audience. The priest and victims
became actors.
It was obvious two types of
drama were to emerge. First,
there was tragedy, the basis of
Which Fas the victim and the
myths surrounding him, ’Second,
there was comedy, the basis Of
which the celebrant leaders and
the orgy.
Tragedy was concerned
sacrifice and represented
relation of man to his God,
is, it was .moral.
'Comedy, on the other hand,
was concerned with the relation
between man .and mail, that is,
it was ethical.
In tragedy, the tragic hero was
the most Important character;
in comedy, there was rarely one
majorcharacter, ibut rather a
group, in tragedy, the audience
was implicated; In comedy, the
audience participat&d.
Greek tragedy became supreme
with the magnificent work of
Sophocles .and Euripides. Dram
atic festivals were presented an
nually. .On these occasions! the
author presented a trilogy in
competition. .Perhaps the most
famous of these trilogies was the
Theban Cycle by Sophocles. Many
will remembei* seeing “Oedipus
Rex” at Stratford a few years
ago. This is the first of the three
plays in. the Theban Cycle. That
year, Sophocles won the ■a'ward.
Is it not interesting that after
thousands o f years, “Oedipus
Rex” is .still considered magnif
icent drama? And here we have
the reflection of earlier .pagan
sacrifice. Oedipus is the victim;
Teiresias the priest; the chorus
the celebrants.
'With
At Clinton
A film depicting the activities
of boys at this year’s Goderich
summer school was shown at the
boys’ rally at Ontario St., Clin
ton, on Friday night. Many of
the boys wore interested to see
themselves in action.
Rev, John /Stinson, Seaforth,
was chairman' for the first rally
of boys, nine to 14 years of age,
in Huron Presbytery for a good
many years.
Rev. Lors Carlson, Hamilton,
chairmah of National Boys’ Work
Board, was the guest speaker and
Rev. Glen Eagle of the church
led in sing-songs and directed
games.’ During this period the
leaders of boys’ groups met 'to
discuss ways and means Of organ
izing more boys' groups in
churches.
'Later Qameron Hill, Palmers
ton, premier of Ontario Older
Boys’ Parliament, brought greet
ings from that group and aided
in the discussion of leaders.
James St., Exeter, won the
ovation for having 25 in attend
ance with Seaforth, second, with
28 present. Approximately 134
boys were in attendance,
It was announced that on No
vember 2£i all boys’ group leaders
of 'Ktti’on, Perth and Guelph
presbyteries will attend a leaders’
school in /Stratford when Bill
Blackmore, national secretary of
boys’ work in the United Chureh
of 'Canada; Rev, Clarence Fergu

in London Conference, and Rev.
Douglas Lapp, Toronto, secretary
