The Wingham Advance-Times, 1965-03-04, Page 14Page 6 - Wipgham Advance -Times,, Thursday& Mar. 4, 1965 Review week February 17-24 A large crowd of proud pa- rents and interested friends were present at Wingham and District High School when the students staged their annual variety concert last week. It was a fine concert. Although the music was not quite as fa- miliar as it has been other years and may not have been as ap- pealing to some, the play was a bit better, as one -act plays go, and a few new features were added. James Nasmith, president of the Students' Council, welcom- ed the audiences, and the junior choir sang "Of Any Land or Sea: which was new to me and gor- geous, with the girls being featured for "I Enjoy Being a Girl", a Rodgers -and -Hammer- stein composition from "Flower Drum Song". The background music in the former, with Carol Robinson on the organ and Glo- ria Reid on piano, was particu- larly lovely, and soloist Verna Hunter sang sweetly, though a bit softly. Miss Munro presented some- thing new and different this year --a girls' gymnastic dis- NEW BOOKLET REVEALS HOW TO Improve Hearing Without an Aid Maybe you, too, can hear better without a hearing aid if you follow suggestions in new book, "How To Get the Most From Your Re- maining Hear- ing".

Some of the teams were not working in per- fect 'sync' with each other, but generally, it was graceful, and I'm sure, much more difficult than it looked. I was sorry these girls were not identified, so more credit could be paid. Fol- lowing this display, a group of Grade 9 girls, under the direc- tion of Miss Krisfalusi, present- ed a Hebrew dance. What there was of it was good, but it need- ed more variety to hold the audience's interest. The boys did well with the favourite from "Oliver", 'Con- sider Yourself'. Somehow I ex- pected them to end itby march- ing off into the sunset like the whistling seven dwarfs! The show medley sung by the senior choir, was unfamiliar to most people --from the hit Broadway Molly Picon--starrer, "Milk and Honey". The beautiful "Shalom" was much too short; it should have been repeated. In case you wondered, the "Might As Well Be Spring"girls were Susan Spry, Jeanette Wright, Judy Forsyth, Almajane Elliott, Bonnie Jardin, Janis Henderson, Marjorie Hopper, Judy Callan, Judy Bitton, Wendy Reynolds and June Willbee. The boys can always be de- pended upon for fast action and entertainment in their gymnas- tic display, under the direction of Mr. Campbell (trampoline accomplishments coached by Mr. Taylor). For some, this could easily have been the hit of the show. The one -act, five -charac- ter play, written by Christopher Cergel, was entitled "Be Home By Midnight". You didn't need to be reminded of the title, for this was all that Papa Jones (John Watson) raved about.Lynda Reavie as Mrs.Jones, had some difficulty making herself heard at the back of the auditorium. The other three in the cast were Louis Stadelmann, Virginia Mur- ray and Donald Cronin. Direc- tor was Miss Welsh. The closing musical num- bers were the title song from the Carol Channing hit "Hello Dolly" (with Charles Congram, whose great voice can be detec- ted in all songs, doing an imi- tation of Satchmo), "Something To Sing About" (vocal duet by Russell Press, and George Jar- dine, violin duo by Sheila and Barbara France), "Now Let All the Earth Adore Thee", and a beautiful closing song "Time for Parting", accompaniment by Carol Robinson and Linda 1964 MERCURY MONTCLAIR 2 -DOOR HARDTOP, automatic, 390 motor, power brakes, power steering and radio, Demonstrator. 1963 BEL AIR 4 -DOOR HARDTOP, power equipped, auto- matic, V8, radio. 1963 FORD GALAXIE 4 -DOOR, 6, Automatic, Radio. 1963 PONTIAC STRATO CHIEF, 4 door, 6 cylinder, automatic, radio. 1963 4 -DOOR IMPALA HARDTOP A real beauty, completely equipped. 1963 CHEVROLET BEL AIR, 4 door, 6 cylinder, standard, radio. 1963 CHEVROLET STATION WAGON 4 -DOOR, 6 Stnd. 1962 FORD FAIRLANE 500 8 Stnd., Radio, 4 -Door. 1962 CHEVROLET IMPALA 2 -DOOR HARDTOP, Power equipped. 1961 METEOR Station Wagon 6 AUTO., radio. 1961 CHEV.

Paul was battered almost to death during his first visit to Lystra, yet he still wanted to return there to establish his converts. "We never really know our Master, " said J. H. Jowett, " un- til we kneel and toil among the driving stones." How readily, Johnson. Other pianists were Sandra Fisher, Ann Oldfield, Russell Press, and Jim Robertson. And here's a note to the ones who write the programmes -- Please, please give these hard- working people responsible'for the quality and success of this concert a little credit. The audience would like to know who to thank! 0--0--0 I promised I'd pay recog- nition to Sammy Davis and May Britt who have just adopted their third child, a son Jeff, to join their own Tracy and other adopted son, Mark.

Marshall of " The Defenders", best dramatic actor; Vivian Vance, Lucy's sidekick,best supporting actress; and Jim Nabors as most promis- ing newcomer in the U.S. series "Gomer Pyle". The big TV Awards, the Emmys, will be given in May. 0--0--0 If the National Film Board production of "Blindness" did nothing else, it made us grate- ful for our many blessings as we watched a young man struggle with the problems of the blind. Len Cariou excellently portray- ed the young man blinded in a shooting mishap, but it was not all acting. Makeup artists made scar tissue for his eyes so that actually, he could sec only very little. Diane Buchan, now of "This Hour Has Seven Days", played his wife, in this produc- tion filmed in Toronto. 0--0--0 Next Monday evening, CBC -TV's centennial series will resume with a look at Canada's longest river, the mighty Mac- kenzie in the Northwest Terri - torics.

Quietly analyse your complaints and see if it is not true of yourself. Paul would not neglect others to guarantee his own comfort; and neither must we. Though vv. 6-10 suggests that Paul always received God's guidance as distinctly as a pilot receives information over his aircraft's radio, the call to Macedonia suggests variation of method. Probably in a dream the Apostle saw and heard a man crying for help; and that became for Paul and those with him the guidance of God. In such simple ways does He make known His will. To await spec- tacular revelation, a dramatic call, is often to wait in vain. It is far better to ask God to open your eyes to the existing need, then by His grace do something about it, We need to do a little self examination occasionally. "I am amazed how easily I be- came callous. I am ashamed how small and insensitive is the surface which I present to the needs and sorrows of the world. I so easily become enwrapped in the soft wool of self-indul- gency, and the cries from far and near cannot reach my ease- ful soul." These are the words of J. H. Jowett. Luke began to write in the first person; 'they began to go' (v.7) suddenly becomes 'we en- deavoured to go' (v.10), indi- cating that the we passages at least are eye -witness accounts. The riverside meeting was pro- bably informal, members of Paul's party 'buttonholing' the women gathered for worship (Jewish groups without a syna- gogue met by the river when- ever possible.). It was Paul him- self that spoke to Lydia, a seller of purple. Verse 14 tells us that she was eager to listen, listen- ing is not simply a matter of hearing. Some people have heard the word of Jesus so often that they are in danger of los- ing their ability to really listen. Lydia listened to the preachers words, but heard God's voice. Not only did she hear but she also acted, and publicly identi- fied herself with the cause of Christ. When spiritual under- standing is not followed by obed- fence, unbelief is confirmed in the will, making subsequent re- sponse to truth more difficult. This convert became anx- ious to serve (v.14). Yes, hos- pitality is a hallmark of Christ- ian faith, whose expression is both open-hearted and open- handed. Our attitude as well as our homes should bespeak Christ• ian hospitality of the quality of Lydia's; she constrained us. Luke 24:29 'But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.' It takes courage to speak for the Lord as the Apostle Paul did. Do you have this courage today? When was the last time you won a soul for God?People are just as eager to hear about Jesus today as Lydia was so many years ago. Will you speak to someone today? God bless you! W.I.
