The action occurs in a house on Indian Island off the Devon coast of England. Through a series of mysterious invitations, eight perâ€" sons arrive at the establishment, «and are received by two servants. ‘This makes & total of ten persons, who through no making of their own, become the characters in a drama that could onlg be conceived by a fiend. Mrs. Christie works out her itorfl like a mathematical roblem. She employs a Mother %oone rhyme that is interlocked with each tragic incident that hapâ€" pens. Perhaps those who recall the rhyme, "Ten Little Injuns," will have an inkling of the ultiâ€" mate fate of the ten people. While serious in intent, "Ten iittle Inâ€" dians," has a surprising amount of comedy relief. Over in England, the play has been compared with *"Arsenic and Old Lace." Mrs, Christie, as réaders of her novels maj’ know, is an English woman and, of course, she resides in her native country. In spite of: priorities, Mrs. Christie keeps in elose touch with the rehearsals of her play, and recently cabled her producers requesting that they reâ€" fer to "Ten Little Indians" as a eomedy. "On this side," Mrs. Christie said, "The audiences enâ€" joy the play as much as a Christâ€" mas pantomime." they used to be, they really are fiying high, of course, there are a few youngsters, who add a bit of fire and temper, but altogether it is a finely balanced club, and should have a very successful season. gium, France, Holland Germany and before going to these countries was a cook at Aldershott for two years.

Quite a lengthy and amusing disâ€" cussion, in spots, was raised over the stray dogs, or dogs without tags that are so numerous about the town of Weston. Reeve Thompâ€" Representatives from the Housâ€" ing %nterprises (Weston), after their first._offer had not found favor with council, asked if they might resume discussion with counâ€" cil reguding the building of ‘"blocks" of homes here in Weston with the desire they should meet the specifications as laid down by council. It was agreed to confer with the assessor and treasurer on the matter before presenting furâ€" ther plans to the finance committee. Reeve Ken Thompson in mlking his report re the Queens‘ Yor! Rangers‘ Armoury, said that any day now it was expected that word would be received }:-om Ottawa givâ€" ing the "go" sign for construction of this necessary asset to the comâ€" munity. He described the channels they had been working through and seemed ?‘uite convinced that Weston should have an armoury at the earliest possible date. He said, "It will be a community building at no expense to the town of Weston to be used by the various organizaâ€" tions of the town." Mr. Little, of 47 William street, was the speaker for the second deputation, which complained of water from sewers backing into cellars of several homes on Wilâ€" liam street. Apparently it has been a complaint for a considerable time. Councillor Huson, chairman of the works committee said he didn‘t reâ€" member seeing the petition, but assured Mr. Little that his attenâ€" tion would be given the matter the fol_[owing day. M In speaking for the ratepayers‘ deputation, Owen Eaton, presented to council the signed circulars that theWRA distributed around town some time ago and said, "there are over 640 signatures of people here in Weston pleading for a better system. We organized this survey to aid you gentlemen," he told counâ€" cil, "in improving ‘the transportaâ€" tion. We realize there is at presâ€" ent a.contract with the TTC and county." In continuing, he pointed out that at the recent transportaâ€" tion meeting held by WRA, memâ€" bers of the county council assured him they would do all in their power to relieve the situation. Exâ€" councillor Stevenson was the second speaker for the ratepayers, Deputy Reeve Rowntree ljiulr- ing with a knowledge of the subject gained frompast experience, replyâ€" ing to a spokesman of the rateâ€" payers in regards to opportunities the council passed up Jast year said, "Buses to {ive us an improved system were not available last sumâ€" mer, and even now could not ‘be acquired for a period of at least six months or maybe even 18 months." He summarized the snags and difficulties of the past, saying that details and truth on all matters should be available to all citizens. Continued from page 1â€" transportation," and the chairman of the transportation committee continued by adding, "We should take action now, because Toronto has many, many problems that may force.them to withhold their immeâ€" diate coâ€"operation."
