A band of gypsies visits the car- nival led by Jiga, the chieftain, and bis suppased daughter, Ilana. Events lead ail ta the gypsy camp, where a magic pool reveals the face of Lady Vivian 's daughter. Arthur Crefront, a poor artist, wins recognition of bis art and also the hand of June Pennington. Lady Vivian consents ta become Mrs. Penningtan; Kinski's plat is exposed; Ilona is rcstored ta her mather, and Joncs is rewarded with succcss in his campaign for the hand of Ilona. In a limited report full justice cannot be donc to the principals, ahl of wbom wcre excellent and iwere ably supported in chorus and specialties in wbich ail pupils took part. A critique would af- firm tbat male voices lackcd volume but acting generally over- toned that deficiency. Alan Strike, ambuahed bchind a wealth of facial alfalfa was the capable ln-keeper. Joan Newton, al- ways accomplished, provided artistry as Louise, a waitress. William Knox, pompously ac- cautred, took the prominence as chief Cap and Grant Brooks wîth Robert Stevens wcre bis a ble supports in pantomine. Irvine Brown, with George M. Caban insouciance, was splendid as tbe pickle salesman, loaking for dollars on every bush. Ted Hoar, a gypsy chief, char- acterized witb all the tricks learned in stealing bases. Lenora Collacutt, a gypsy girl, with vaice and acting, gat a big hand. How- ard Sturrack, the artist, capable unsaphîsticate, was samewbat diffident in the clinches. Eleanare Wight, sophisticate heiress, won applause as usual with well train- ed voice. Gregdry Friend, as Pen- nington, was able understudy ta industrial wealth and Gwen 1 Brooks as Lady Vivian, presented faitbful refinement in ber raIe. Names of tbe supers were not given on the program but aIl wcrc indccd very capable and excel- lently traincd by Mrs. Bell, to whom much credit must be ac- cordcd. LI Specialties includcd à d oll dance by Mary Paterson, Pearl Brcslin, Lois F i s h e r, Anna Aharan, Shirley Fallis and Joan Rice, excellent and cnchored. Carl Bac and Glen Williams gave a mouth organ duet worthy of Keith's at any time. The brilliant carnival scene in the last act was bcadlincd by Eric Mcllveen as the Carnival King who provcd him- self capable of home runs on the stage as well as the diamond. The entire galaxy of talent prescnted wbat was unanimously acclaimied the musical treat of tbe season. The valedictory address delivered by John Rutter, Friday cvening, will appear in next week's issue.

BLACKSTOCK PEOPLE GET CHRISTMAS THANKS FROM BOYS OVERSEAS Cards and letters continue ta pour into the hands of Black- stock people through Secertary Henry Thompson, Nestîcton, from overseas personnel of that dist- rict, expressing thanks for par- cels received in the pre-Christ- mas rush. The latest budget for- warded ta The Statesman is con- densed as follows for lack of ade- quate space: From Pte. T. H. Cole, Italy: Immense thanks for the box packed by the Nestieton ladies. It came as we were trying to get around in mud over tops of aur boots and ramn falling like no- body's business. So these parcels make us farget aur immediate troubles. But tbings haven't gone s0 well since we cracked the Gothic Line. It looks as if it might take longer ta lick Jerry. We learn that McNaughton has taken aver Ralston's job. That may not be sa goad for the Zombies back home and we may get belp yet. TOMMY. From J. H. Werry, R.C.A.F., Overseas: Thanks ta the Nestleton Wo- men's Association for their thoughtful parcels. Everything is gaing as goad as can be expected but holidays are few and far between. The ex-Nazi dominated people make every effort ta aid us and with your parcels we are daing fine. JOHNNIE. From Sgt. G. A. Gibson, R.C. A.F., Overseas: Thanks ta Cartwright people for parcel which means sa much. Hope it wan't he toa long now till we can thank you in persan. My best wishes ta Nestleton Wamen's Association and ahl respansible for parcels. GLENN A. GIBSON. Besides the above are tbree cards in elegant brown envelopes with interior flawered scrolls fromn the Emmerson boys with thanks ta the Blackstock, Cadmus and Nestîcton ladies for parcels lately received and wishes for a Merry Christmas. Cartwright people are apparently doing a great service for their boys over- seas. From B.S.M. J. M. Cameron, 4 L.A.A., R.C.A., Holland, to M. Breslin, Bowmanville: ville: I arn afraid my excuses get feebler from week ta week for failing ta write. Just now have a bit of time and free postage ta say that only last wcek I saw in The Statesman of your terminatian of army if e. I had hoped you would. have managed ta came overseas and we would have been able to meet. Hawever we shal have ta postpane these tbings to future years and get together and thresh the pan dry aver damp glasses and a peaceful atmos- phere. I couldn't think of writing you, knowing your trame of mind without giving vent to My thougbts on the issue that con- fronta the Canadian people today. The word "Zombie" neyer ap- pealed ta me. No! As it is a blight on anyone who wears the uniform of aur great country. I had hapcd that a word like this would have been reserved for those who would neyer valunteer. How anyone can lay dlaim ta be- ing a saldier and wear the uni- form after what the Canadian army bas done and still remain at Canada's apron strings is stili beyond my comprehiension. What has happened that such a blight is thrown over aur ef- fort and at such a critical stage of events? I had tbought that Canada had observed from her high seat, enaugh of the sacrifice of the lives of other countries in THEIR fight for freedom that she (Canada) would neyer, neyer make a political issue out of her effort. Wake up Canada! Play the game like gentlemen! Since I last wrate much water bas flowcd under the bridge and I find it impassible ta bring yau up to date with events that have libcrated France, Belgium, Hol- land, before turning ta liberation in the Orient. Let us as we enter the last periad devote same time to trying ta undcrstand aur fel- low men. I have found out one thing in this struggle: we knaw nathing, abaalutely nathing of aur next door neighbars and we make no attcmpt ta try. Happy Christ- mas toa ah. JACK CAMERON. I TCà CHCmm HAMPTON HOME AND SCHOOL ASSOCIATION Hampton Home and School As- sociation met Nov. 14 with Presi- dent K. A. Caverly in the chair. It was decided that a letter be sent Mr. T. R. McEwen, School Inspector, for his advice on: fre books for pupils; serving of hot lunches at noon; securing a schaal nurse, and the type of playgraund equipment mast suit- able for the children. Will White, Vice President, in- troduced Mrs. F. W. Bowen, Orono, wha presented a mast in- spiring and instructive address on "The Aims of the Home and School Association." In her speech she stressed the need of dloser ca-operation between parents and teachers, free discussions that tend ta create unity and hclp prevent friction, and that we shauld ail be willing ta do aur share of community work. The importance of sanitary surround- ings and proper ventilation was '& M A!?- ý, BLACK TEAOU W ORANGE PEKOE TEA ROBINHOOD FLOUR NAPLE LEAF LARD TOMATOES coc 1d i PEAS Standard PERFECTION COCOA JEWEL SHORTEN11NG COUTFLAES Quaker also mentioned. Mrs. Bowen stated that parents should study the new curriculum. She believes such subjects as manual training, agriculture, home nursing, bouse- h a 1d science and citizenship should be stressed in rural schools instead of the three R's. The programn was varied by an artistically played piano solo by Master Ralph Peters, cntitled "In Merry Mood." Miss Mary Nid- dery, in her usual entertaining manner gave a humorous im- personation of a radio announcer, advcrtising "Plunkett's Puis for Pale People." Miss Pauline De- line accompanied by Mrs. Hockin, both of Newcastle, favored with a pleasing vocal solo, "For You Alone," and "Somewhere a Voîce Is Calling." Mark Blackburn moved a vote of thanks to Mrs. Bowen and those who so kindly contributed to the program, which was seconded by Mrs. C. Warren. Lunch was served.
