If they’ll arrange to have the bottom of their cages lined with aluminum, they’ll sing through the darkest day. The light reflected from the sparkling metal foil gives their souls that springtime lift. People find endless household uses for aluminum foil. So docs industry—for everything from fire-fighting clothing to photo­ flash bulbs, to wrapping for candy and food. Canada used 8 million pounds, of foil last year. ALUMINUM COMPANY OF CANADA, LTD. (ALCAN) I ON STAGE I a With the Community Players g “Life with Father,” the three-act play being presented on June 23rd and 24th, is getting its final finishing touches with just three more rehear­ sals to go. The director, Lillian Over­ end, reported that she was very happy with last Sunday’s rehearsal of the complete play. * 0-0-0 Mel Keating, who plays the part of Father, does so with convincing sin­ cerity and has put tremendous effort and thought into his role, This is an amazing portrayal considering that Mel has had no experience in acting, except maybe in school plays. Mel is well known in Wingham ■> be­ ing a local hydro repair man and a member of the volunteer fire depart­ ment. He is married and has two fine sons, Charles and David. 0-0-0 One of the Community Players* most talented 'actresses, Raye Mc- Knight, plays the part of Mother, Raye will be remembered for her sym­ pathetic characterization of Emily in "Our Town” performed in Wingham during the 75th anniversary last year, She is also well known for her singing in the United Church choir and she has a small singing part in this play. Raye is married and has a young son, Stephen. Her husband, Jack Me- Knight, who played the Sgt. Major in “The Monkey’s Paw”, works for Can­ ada Packers and has recently been moved to Clinton. The local club will sorely miss Raye and Jack, who are both, Very interested in drama. 0-0-0 The Wingham Community Players were delighted to receive two beauti­ ful old wedding dresses last week,. These and an old-fashioned port­ manteau and some'other articles, were donated to the club by Mrs. W. W. Armstrong of Wingham. The members of the club are very grateful for this kind gesture. 0-0-0 The china pug dog, which is need­ ed for this production and one of the main hand properties, seems to be a difficult thing to come by. It looks as if some other object will have to be substituted. ■ News of Belgrave Flower Sunday, Anniversary Observed at United Church Flower and Sunday School anniver­ sary services were observed in Bel­ grave United Church on Sunday, June 1'2.
