Concert a musical treat By Susan Graham EXETER - Saturday evening Ex- eter was given a musical treat by the Ambassadors, a 24 member male chorus from Hamilton under the direction of Harold deHaan. • The Ambassadors have been sing- ing together for twenty years. They perform entire concerts, as well as contribute to worship services, nursing homes, and community events. They have successfully competed in national compc,titions and have recorded four albums. The organ fund committee of the Christian Reformed Church spon- sored this special concert held at the Exeter United Church. Al deHaan, brother of the conductor and mem- her of this committee, introduced the Ambassadors to a Targe, enthu- siastic audience. In his remarks he recognized the growing interest and participation in music in the South Huron arca. The program beganwith a joyous selection, "With a Voice of Sing- ing" which demonstrated the singers versatility and excellence, and the skill of their accompanist, Fred Nu - man. - These qualities continued • throughout the evening. The Ambassadors impressed us with thcir effective use of dynam- ics, their capable a capalla (without accompaniment) singing- and their usic1memorization of every piece of mu- sic! The program included sacred mu- sic, German Art Songs, settings of American poetry, "Favorites" and spirituals. The Ambassadors sang something for everyone - always performing expressively and confi- dently. My favorites were the Bach "In Exultation", the poems by Rob- ert Frost, and the spiritual "Dry Bones". We were truly fortunate to have singers of such high calibre per- forming in oui community. by the warm reception given the Ambassa- dors, one would hope many more of such concerts will happen in Exet- er. Presbyterial president speaks at Cromarty By .MRS. ROBERT LAING -CROMARTY - The president of Stratford -Huron Presbyterial of the Women's Missionary Society, Mary McTavish, Shakespeare, was guest speaker at the October meet- ing of the Marian Ritchie W.M.S. Mrs. McTavish spoke on the femi- nine face of poverty, pointing out the gap between wages paid to a single man and a single woman in the same job - even though the woman might be supporting a fam- ily through no fault of her own. She also read from an editorial in which the writer commented on his own remark upon opening the re- frigerator door - "There's nothing in this house to cat." Of course, there was food to eat but not to his lik- ing at that moment. Had he lived in the Third World his cupboard might indeed have been empty. _ Having lived in Haiti, where he saw women naked while they washed their only dresses, he had a very guilty feeling when he opened his closet door to decidewhich of his many clothes he would wear the next day. And he really didn't need 40 channels of T.V. His conclu- sion was that he needed to find a way to share his wonderful fortune with people who deserve no less but have nothing or he would not be able to live with himself. Betty Lou Norris presided for the meeting and opened with a poem, Harvest Home. Jean Carey led in the Thankoffcring Worship Service from the Glad Tidings.. She was as- sisted in the scripture readings by Lillian Douglas and Agnes La- MAKE A DIFFERENCE., C. 5[askett and. Son Furniture 188 Main St. Lucan 227-4688 mond.
