There is an old tradition to summer stock theatrt, a sort of country gentility about it, a glorious shabbiness. Unfortunately, in many areas the tradition is dying. In the eastern United States area where summer stock used to flourish, it has become mainly a thing of the past. So it was a brave idea when Jim Murphy a young pro- ducer -director from Toronto decided to start a summer stock theater in Grand Bend. So far, despite some prob- lems and disappointments, it seems to be waking. See the story on page 4. If you've ever walked into a closet and closed the door behind you, then dropped something on the floor and tried to find it in the dark, you know a little of what it is to be blind. But you can always open the door, a turn on a light, and your problem is over. Not so for the blind. That's why it is so amazing to see what some people have learned to do without the use of their eyes. See Harold Vodden's story on page 11. Just as professional theatre is a new thing to Huron county, so is professional art. The Heim Gallery near Wingham gives local people a chance to see professional art right in their own back yard. The problem is, few have seen it. (Story on page 8). Follow up... From the number of comments we've had from readers after the first two issues of Village Squire, we think people seem to like it very much. The problem is, we know it, but our advertisers have to take our word for it, and advertisers are what makes this magazine go. There are two ways our readers could help let the advertisers know they read the magazine, first through letters to the editor, and second by letting an advertiser know when they visit his store that they saw his ad in Village Squire. We're happy, even eager to have you write to us and tell us what you like AND w hat you don't like about the magazine. We're eager to hear your suggestions.
