Katherine says the show is a cabaret-style. review with old songs ranging from the 1900's to the 1920's. Harry calls the music "Oh Yeah" songs explaining that in many of the numbers they perform, people don't know the words of the verses verses to songs. But when the performers reach the chorus people say "Oh, yeah, I know that" and start to sing along. The two first met while acting in shows at the Oshawa Little Theatre. Two years ago, Katherine told Harry about some old sheet music she had that used to belong to her grandmother. They got together, created created a show, and have been performing and having a great time together ever sincé. The pair performs over 30 songs in two hours and act out a few advertisements from magazines of the time. "It's very reflective of the way people thought at the time. It's humourous to see the difference today," Katherine Katherine said. Katherine, who believes the decline of popular music happened with the advent of dy...".

Katherine has spent | hours scouring antique shops, poring over books at the libraries of Toronto and Queen's University and even visiting the National Archives Archives in Ottawa. They have discovered a number of unusual titles for songs such as "A Pain in my Sawdust," which was sung by a teddy bear and "I Went and Picked a Lemon in the Garden of Love where I thought only Peaches Grew." "They turned out sheet music like it was going out of style, which I guess it did," Katherine joked. And the audience, both young and old, really responds responds to their performance. Song sheets are passed out to encourage people to sing along. That way, the audience nas the words in front of them and has no excuse excuse not to sing along. But a lack of audience participation doesn't seem to oe a problem. In fact, since their show was first staged, they have found people singing singing with them even when they weren't supposed to.

The meeting was called by a Steering Committee of Concerned Citizens opposing the location of a waste disposal disposal site in Cartwright Township Township and chaired by Bill Lisnman. This meeting was in stark contrast to the first meeting which was rather chaotic. We shall not encroach on the local correspondents territory territory by an in depth covering covering of tne meeting. Suffice it to say that the array of speakers provided a wealth of information to the point that only a couple of questions questions were asked at the conclusion conclusion of the meeting. A couple' of interesting points were raised. For example, example, clay-based waste sites are not infallible to leaching when even minimum minimum amount of toxic ele ments are dumped there. That even when dump sites are doubled lined, that eventually eventually they will disintegrate and leak into the subsoil and underground water table, table, a most disturbing .thought. Around $3,000 was raised from passing the hat to provide seed money for current and future expenses. We disagree with the statement statement that politicians are responsible responsible for the lack of recycling recycling of wastes, the responsibilty for this lies with the individual and to date no conscientious effort has been made by John Q. Public to initiate any more than lip service to recycling. The current 10-12 per cent ■is a long way from 1 the 50 per cent mark that is the goal. Belated thanks to the Orono correspondent Mrs. Chqllice for her recent kind comments on our- longevity as a local correspondent. Everyone enjoyes a word of appreciation now and again- -particularly from a peer. . ■ 3 ; We Lucky Winners Receive Fire Extinguishers (Editor's Note: love you too Harvey.

Mrs. Marlene Glasger- gen also suffered a severe dose of the flu followed with pneumonia and is currently in the Civic Hospital in Peterborough Peterborough for the past week recuperating.

Local farmers starting to combine corn have had to put the operation on hold. know the rest of the song and stop after the first line, he laughingly said. Audiences have fun and some even call Katherine and Harry about music they have that could be used in their show. Janice Kerr, who will be accompanying the pair on October 27, said those attending attending the performance can "expect to get a glimpse into what life was like during that time." There are a couple of "sexist" songs in the performance performance but nothing they say that is offensive. "They're lighthearted and reflect the period. They're mostly amusing," Katherine said. Katherine, a graduate of the Royal Conservatory, has performed in a number of stage productions such as Kiss Me Kate, Guys and Dolls and productions with Toronto's Teller's Cage, The Red Barn Theatre and the Kawartha Summer Theatre. Recently, she could be seen in Knot's Landing, Donna Mills' "The Oldest Living Bridesmaid" and in numerous other roles in TV, film and commercials. Harry has performed in musicals such as South Pacific, Pacific, Kiss Me Kate, Oliver, Music Man and My Fair Lady. They've made their own costumes and sets and Harry Harry even created the floodlights floodlights at the foot of the stage to reflect the vaudeville type show.
