The bottom photo shows Legion members and their color party marching to the cenotaph. It's always a wonderful thing to hear beautiful music, but the experience is a little more special when music is The MacDONALD FORD Ad On Page 3 Carefully being performed by a former Newcastle boy who bas con- tributed to the memories of many Newcastle families. As you all can guess I am talking about Mr. Lawrence Morton, whose father the Rev. R.E. Morton was minister of New- castle United Church from 1938 to 1945. Mr. Morton his lovely wife Anne and daughter Barbara Louise, came with him to top off the 150th anniversary celebrations of Newcastle Un- ited Church. Last Thursday, they gave a family concert at Newcastle Town Hall which enthralled all those present. It was the first Canadian perfor- mance for Mrs. Morton, an accomplished pianist, and Barbara Louise who at 14 plays the violin like an old pro. Although the turnout was not up to the fullest expecta- tions there was a very good crowd. The program was started off by a series of piano duets performed by Mr. and Mrs. Morton. The first was an adaption of Bach's Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring and the second was Mozart's glorious Sonata for two pianos in D Major, K. 448 in three movements. This particular piece is a constant dialogue between the two pianos and is extremely intri- cate. I think that that particular erformance was one of the est interpretations of that sonata I've ever heard. After the duets it was time for Barbara Louise to give her Canadiandebut, playing three romantic selections, with her mother as piano accompanist. The young performer was accorded an enthusiastic re sponse from the audience and was welcomed to the village with open arms. She played with confidence and grace and is a lovely complement to her talented parents. Mr. Morton took the opport- unity to speak before his solo performance about his life in Newcastle, which he consid- ered a cultural haven from the world of junior hockey play- ing. He thanked the friends lie bas left in Newcastle for the many things they had done to make his family at home for the short time they were here. He then went on to play The Baby's Family, an impres- sionst work by the Brazilian composer Villa-Lobos, a Chop- in Nocturn and the Butterfiy Waltz by the Canadian com- poser Seitz. This piece lie played for all his o d school chums. The concert was concluded with another piano duet with Mr. and Mrs. Morton playing Rachmaninoff's Suite No. 2 for two pianos, Op. 17. The response to the performance was extremely enthusiastic, and after the applause had simmered down, the family was presented with gifts from the village. On Sunday, Prof. Morton presented a plaque in the United Churc min memory of bis father and lie and lis family metwith some of their old friends. If this article should reach the Mortons somehow, I would like to thank them for their contribut- ions to our village in both the beautiful music they have shared with us and the friends, both new and old, they have made. Remembrance services were held Monday in all the churches and the wreath was laid at the epitaph. I think it is correct to ,say that almost every family in Newcastle lost a friend or relative in the two World Wars, and in honor of them those of us still living should do everything possible to prevent such a waste from ever happening again. When I look at the pictures of the men who went off to war, I realize with shock that they weren't really men at all, but boys. The point is, you don't have to be very old, very important or very smart to try and save the world. Speaking of, saving the world, the senior students at Clarke High School made a very goo showing at the Blood Clinic held at the Bowmanville Lions Centre last Wednesday. There is a plaque awarded to the high schools in this area for the most participation (judged by the size of the school) in the blood clinic, and Clarke has won it again this year. The principal, Mr. E.G. Wither- spoon is an enthusiastic part- icipant and sets a good example every year. Well, as Bugs Bunny would say, "That's all for now folks." YELVERTON Yelverton U.C.W. held their Nov. meeting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Howard McMul- len in Port Perry. Business included a very generous donation to our Champion ballteams which will be much appreciated by the team members. Saturday was a busy day in this community with a dupli- cation of events of local interests. The Jozefacki - Malcolm wedding at St. George's Uni- ted Church at Duplex St., Toronto, attracted the Ray Robinsons and Harvey Mal- colm families. Mr. and Mrs. Victor Malcolm of Nestleton and Mrs. Ernestine Hender- son of Bethany on Saturday evening. The bride a mutual niece, Miss Karen, Rae Mal- colm, second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ralh Malcolm of Don Mills. Miss Mitzi Malcolm was maid of honour on the happy occasion. At the recep- tion which foliowed, Mr. Murray. Henidersoni, unele of the bride was the genial Toastmaster and it was our privelege to propose the toast to the bride.

Music for the capacity crowd present was supplied by Dise-Jockey Walter Hafili of Lindsay. Winners of door prizes were, Mr..

Mr. Floyd Stinson and Mr. Lorne McKec spent last week up north hunting. During the week one member of their, party bagged two deer. Newtoi A family gathering was held at the home of Miss Noreen Prouse, in Toronto, a week ago, when those present included Mrs. Prouse and Charlie, Port Hope, Mr. and Mrs. MelvillerSamis, and Mr. and Mrs. Morley Robinson. We overlooked mentioning Hallowe'en, this year - must have been because everyone was so ice and mannerly. About 100 children called at our door, between 6 and 9 p.m. - sorry our supplies finally gave out, so we turned off the lights, but there was no rough stuff, this year. A Sarah Coventry Party was held at the home of Mrs. Betty Stapleton, last Tuesday even- ing. The sudden death of Mr. C.H.
