It was also thought - that a fashion show at the time of the bazaar might be enjoyed by the community. Judi Mountjoy was in charge of the program. While discussing some of the "do's and. don'ts" of photography she showed a series of slides to demon- strate how to make your pictures more interesting. Hopefully we'll all yse our cameras more in the future and also think before we press the shutter release button. Loanne Lee spoke of the) "February blahs' we have all been experiencing and led us in a worship that I'm sure we will remember as we are about to take our own frushrations out on friends and family. Let's not rely on the weather to make our homes and Community a happier place. Plan Drama Night at Port Perry High - - Students at Port Perry High School will again pro- vide an evening of delightful entertainment when they stage their annual Drama Night, March 16 at 8 p.m. This year's performances will feature something for everybody. "Come What May", the first of the three plays to be presented is an English farce, while "Aria " daCapo" is a fantasy. "The' Monkey's Pay", last of the plays, is a thriller. Starting it all off is. a curtain-raiser, an improvis- ation by students. As in past years, the Drama Night is a present- ation of the school's drama club, and is the result of months of preparations by many students working mainly on their own time. "The kids do it on their own," said the school's drama head Diane Lackie. "A lot of work goes into one of these presentations." Although - the school's auditorium will probably provide the stage for the event, Mrs. Lackie said that the location. may yet be changed to more suitable surroundings at Town 'Hall 1873. . This year, some 60 young people have been working together to present the two- hour program. The group is headed by teachers: Diane Lackie, David Sims and John Crocker, who are invol- ved in directing and super- vising. 1 "Attendance in past years has been rather poor, but it is hoped that a growing community consciousness of drama that is being helped along by Town Hall 1873, will mean bigger crowds at the Drama Night this year, "The "kids' "interest and enthusiasm is very good," said Mrs. Lackie, "a good attendance would encourage it."
