HAVE A PLEASANT TRIP Many a vacation has been ruined by an ailment that is most common to tourists—diar- rhea. In a great many cases, diarrhea can be brought on by excitement, tension or fatigue of the vacation and usually it will disappear after a day or two. One way to possibly avoid this unpleasant- ness is to follow some common sense rules-- don't wait until the last minute to get ready, don't drive too far each day, stop and stretch your legs and don't over-eat while traveling. It might also be a good idea to stop by and let us recommend something to take along in case the problem comes up despite your efforts to avoid it.

Last week, the Playhouse held a meeting and reception of the Board of Trustees at the Oak- wood Inn. James Murphy, Playhouse director, said that generally, the Board's attitude was enthusiastic for the result of the theatrical venture. They have set up a special finance committee to launch a sizable fund-raising campaign. Mr. Murphy said this will involve appeals to industry, private and public foundations and personal contributions. "The goal is definitely to get us into the barn next year," he said. Plans are almost completed for a benefit performance to be presented at the Playhouse. This will hopefully take place August 30, 1972, the opening night of the final play, "Dirty Work at the Crossroads" and will be spon- sored by the Association for the Mentally Retarded. This should be an especially interesting play because local residents will be members of the cast. Auditions will be held this Saturday for a variety of roles in the old-fashioned melodrama. Mr. Murphy said he has had a "surprisingly good response" already, in the quest for local talent. In Ontario, it is the law for a funeral director to show at least eight caskets. However, it is unusual for the lowest-priced caskets to be shown, as they are often kept in a separate room, and anyone wishing to see them may need to make a specific request, Page 8 Times-Advocate, Augpst 17, 1972 Return from tour of British Isles Ladies 81 Girls SANDALS Most Sizes 20% OFF
