Curtain, as usual, will go up at 8 p.m. The Mumberley In- heritance, or His Substance Frittered, is an old style melodrama written by War- ren Groves. Although set in England and in the style of turn-of- the-century theatre, The Mumberley Inheritance was first staged in 1971 in Ed- monton's Citadel Theatre. Just the same, Huronia Players intend to play it ex- actly as it might have been done by a touring company way back in 1900 in the Midland Opera House. Cooking with natural food Cooking with natural food will be discussed by Trish Hines of Grass Roots of Wyebridge at the next meeting of the Ladies Coffee Hour group.

Every meldodrama has a villain. John Hansler is cast as the thoroughly rotten Marmaduke Mayhem. You may boo or hiss him all you wish. This is John's first ma- jor role in almost 20 years although he has played a number of supporting roles during that time. And of course you need a hero. Jacques Brunet plays Rodney Stoutheart, hero. And for every hero there is a heroine. Otherwise, why be heroic? Julia Morrell plays lovely Daphne Numberley, heroine. Daphne is the daughter of tion Army will give a devo- tional talk.

Sir Roger Mumberley, owner of Mumberley Manor, Suffolk, bordering on four counties, and is the fellow who frittered his substance. He is described as a misguided old man, which is a kindly way of put- ting it. John Scott is working up a magnificent portrayal of the old bat. Another member of the Mumberley family is Jack, the long lost brother who shows up in the middle of all the action and further com- plicates the plot. Ron Trin- dorfer, a new member of the Players, is Jack. Elmer Vuormake plays Crispin Cringe, a nasty bit of goods who does the dirty work for Marmaduke Mayhem. Cringe is not all bad though, being what is described as a victim of cir- cumstances. Polly, played by Kimberley Shirazaee, is a nurse who shows up at Mumberley Manor osten- sibly to look after Sir Roger, much to his delight. It soon comes to light she has had other associations with the family.

The role is an opportunity for May' to use her comic talents. the Mumberley In- heritance has it all -- mystery, intrigue, scandal, foul play, secret tunnels, lost treasure, violence and sex -- oh my yes! -- and a happy ending in spite of all the evil deeds. Melodrama calls for a distinctive acting style, or, better say over acting. As John Scott puts it, "We have to remember to do all the things we've been taught not to do on stage."' Director Stephen Hartnell is con- stantly reminding the cast of this, constantly urging them to use more flam- boyant gestures, more histrionics. However, he feels it will take an audience to make it all come together. It is easier to be heroic to cheers, or dastardly, given enough booing and hissing. The audience, he says, is cordially invited to do either. Salvation Army. The campaign will be on all this Water tests continue Tests on the water from the wells in Perkinsfield, done since the water was turned on two months ago, are showing positive results. Tiny Water Superinten- dent Hubbert Charlebois told Tiny Township council last week the Ministry of the Environment will con- tinue to test the water supp- ly in order to ensure the water remains safe. According to Charlebois, one set of tests have already been completed and the results are public and anyone who wishes to see the findings of the tests, can go to the Municipal Offices. "There will be an on- going test program on that water in the well," Charlebois. Although there have been said Red Shield Appeal A parade led by the Legion Pipes and Drums kicked off this year's Red Shield Appeal for the Salvation Army in Midland on Saturday.

One hundred pipers expected May 25 by Don Parker It's about to happen again, folks. The biggest pipe band parade ever to take place in our town. Big- ger, even, than the spec- tacular showing they made here last May. The Ontario Massed Legion Pipes and Drums is returning to Midland and will parade for you right down King Street on Sunday, May 25th at 1:30 p.m. The Midland Legion Pipes and Drums, a proud member of this larger group, will act as host to this exciting activity for the fourth year in a row. Made up of Legion Bands from every part of Ontario, the Massed Band has just recently returned from another successful tour. This time they were in the Carribean where they were greeted warmly and en- thusiastically everywhere. They have performed in every major parade and Highland Games in Ontario since its inception in 1974, and it is in constant demand for ceremonies, celebra- tions, parades and festivals right across the province. Some of the places these happy ambassadors have travelled to are: San Fran- cisco and Pasadena, California; Edinburgh, Glasgow and many places in Scotland, including a per- formance before Princess Margaret at Oban in Scotland, recently; no complains about the system the testing is a precautionary measure that is being taken to ensure the Perkinsfield residents' water is safe to consume.

According to Site Selec- tion Chairman Bruce Tin- ney, drilling on the Wilcox farm (just off of highway 93) and an old sand pit on Con- cession 9 of Tiny Township was completed last Wednesday by the associa- tion's consultants. A special meeting has been called for 2 p.m. today to discuss the findings before the membership meets for their regular mon- thly session this evening. Although the association has narrowed it down to seven possible sites, from 42 tested, NSMWA Chairman Lionel Dion says if either of the two sites examined last week show any potential for a possible dump they will be added to the association's _ short list. Dion admits the associa- tion is between four and six weeks behind on selecting a site and says it is something the organization can over- come if they all work together. The chairman expects a final decision on a site will be made within the next month, adding the Deputy- Minister of the Ministry of the Environment, Denis Caplice expects the associa- tion's decision in his hands by June. The final decision has to be made quickly in order for the association to get ready for an Environmental Assessment Hearing on the selected site that could come as early as September says Dion.
