The Gibb family at one time resided in Whitechurch, in the home now owned by Mrs, Robert Ross, On Thursday Mrs, George Conlon, who has left the Lang, side district and is now in the 1.301more vicinity, was present ,. ed with a cup and saucer by • Mrs. George Young at the W„, M.S. meeting. Langside community held a very successful Christmas concert in the hall there on Saturday evening. The hall was filled and a few were pre - sent from, the village. Rev. Horace Braden of London was, a Sunday dinner guest at the home of Mrs. Robert Ross. This community extends sympathy to Mr, and Mrs. Er- nie Beecroft and family in the passing of her mother, Mrs. Hugh Sinnamon of Wingham. We are reminded of the United Church Christmas con, cert being held December 18 in the church, and Chalmers Presbyterian Church Christmas concert on December 21. Mr. and Mrs. Bob Evans of Hamilton were Sunday visitors at Wingham and District Hospit- al with his mother, Mrs. Bill Evans. Mr. and Mrs. Russel Proct- er of Livonia, Mich., on Sat- urday brought Mr. Russel Rit - chie who had visited with rela- tives in Detroit the past week, to his home here. Mr. and Mrs. Procter called on rela- tives in Detroit the past week, to his home here. Mr. and Mrs. Procter called on relatives here during the week-end. Mr. and Mrs. Norman Coultes were in London on Thursday. Mr. and Mrs. Wes Rutter and family were at Kirkton on Sunday. Mr. Russell Ritchie visited on Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Ritchie of Lucknow. Sunday visitors with Mrs. Cecil Falconer were Mr. and Mrs. George Brown of Oakville. This community was a among those hit by the ice storm on Sunday evening. The back roads were so icy that it was impossible for cars to keep on the roadway with the result that any who did try it ended in the ditch. The school children on the back roads en- joyed a holiday on Monday as it was impossible for the bus to make the rounds. Mr. and Mrs. Wallace Conn, on Sunday visited with his aunt, Mrs. Sam Hutchison at Huronview. Mr. Clipperton spent Sun- day at his home in Thames- ford. If you are the type who likes happy endings on your movies, and are left complete- ly destroyed when boy loses girl again, just before THE END flashes across the screen, I suppose "Waiting For Caro- line" would leave you com pletely unimpressed. Shown in the recent "Festival" time slot,..tit is the second full- length feature film produced jointly by the National Film Board and the CBC to be shown on that network this fall. The first was "The Ernie Game" seen November 8th; a third, "Paper People", will be seen before the end of the year. Caroline is hard to under- stand; although she tries to build a lasting relationship with people, she is really a cold fish, incapable of any real feel- ing. She has too much money, too much beauty and too many brains for her own good. These factors have led her from her life in Vancouver to a French Canadian world in Quebec City, where, as the play opens, she is working in an art gallery. She is at this tithe involved with Marc, a young French Canadian actor and she believes that she fits her new role like a glove and vice versa, not realizing that she will never fit into his world. To Quebec comes Peter, with whom she Went to school in Vancouver. 'Tis Show Biz By Vonni Lee The flame, for him, is still very much alive and she lets herself be talked into going home with him. Marc, silly boy , has never heard that 'Three's a crowd' and he tags along. Her father is in Vancouver, and about to be married to Emily, a sweet young thing as young as Caroline herself. For Caroline,though she likes Emily well enough, it means the end of her warm and stable relationship with her father; and as time goes on, she real- izes that Marc and Peter too, were only flashing fancies and nothing lasting can come of any of her involvements. The play leaves you a bit distressed, perhaps because it reminds you of all your own private little failures, and of the times you 'use' people as Caroline does, only to find she is just cheating herself. They brought native. Cana- dian Alexandra Stewart from Paris to play Caroline, and a warm and beautiful Caroline she was. Here is more ev- idence that homeland talent is never recognized-- this was her first film here in Canada, while she has appeared in 34 European films, and U.S. and Argentine films. Maybe you remember seeing her in "Exodus" with Paul Newrxian, Mr. and Mrs. Albert Coul , tes were Sunday visitors with Mt. and Mrs. Lawson Majury of Paisley. They were ac- companied IQ Paisley by Mrs. Olive Boss of Wingham who visited with her sister, Mrs. Graydon Cox and Rev. Cox of the same town. Mr. and Mrs. Lorne Forster and family were Sunday visitors Ai with Mr. and Mrs. Walter El- liott and family. This community extends to Mr. and Mrs. Alexander of Manitoba WROXETER-- The Dec, ember meeting of the Wroxeter Women's Institute was held at the home of Mrs. Howard WY ," lie. The president, Mrs. Wes Newton, opened the meeting with a reading, "Christmas and the Things that Matter". Miss Marion Gibson gave a study on the Province of Mani- toba which gave an insight into the lives and industry of that province. This was most inter- esting due to the fact that she had spent several years in Win- nipeg. Roll call, "Childhood Memories of Christmas", brought a varied response. Mrs. Wm. Taylor read "Whatever Happened to Christ- mas". The topic, Christmas, given by Mrs. Ron McMichael stressed the Christian side of and in "Mickey One" with Warren Beatty. She was origin- ally from Montreal, used to model before she went to Paris. Her supporting cast was Robert Howay, who came from an acting company in Perth, Scot- land, to play Peter; Francois Tasse a Montreal stage and television actor, who played Marc; William Needles as Caroline's father; and Sharon Acker as Emily. Sharon is a gal who has played in many CBC dramatic shows and last year she landed a starring role in "Point Blank", a Hollywood movie with Lee Marvin and Angie Dickinson, filmed on Alcatrez Island. She and Miss Stewart, actually, are amazing look-alikes. The production was filmed on location in Que- bec City and Vancouver, with interiors shot in Montreal studios. Ron Kelly was the very capable director, and he has won awards for many of his television efforts. 0-0-0 It was sad to hear of Bert Lahr's death in New York last week. He has brought so much laughter to adults and kids alike, that it will be a great loss to the entertainment world. In a class with Ed Wynn, every- one loved his comedy and will miss him.
