BA. 5-2405 By Mrs. Mona Robertson For the past four years we have been covering the educa- tional program held at the Loyal True Blue and Orange Home during the month of March and this year the children, teachers and staff really hit a new peak of perfection with their presen- tation of the Operetta “The Mag- ic Piper", played before a capac- ity audience of 200 people com- prised of relatives and friends from all over Ontario. First Operetta Staged ByOrangeHomeChildren Fifty-five of the 59 school- age children at the Home took part in the musical which was directed by their teachers, Miss P. I. Brown and Mrs. A. Ross. The directors deserve a great deal of praise for the bright and natural style of singing and act- ing they have encouraged in their young pupils and the child- ren themselves must be com- mended for their most natural acting and clear enunciating throughout the Operetta. Miss B. MacLeod was accompanist, mus- ic was composed by Carol Chris- topher. The scenes in the Hamlin Town square, when the villagers discussed events or sang of daily happenings carried so much meaning, through facial expres- sions, actions or voice inflection, that one marvelled how these youngsters, aged from 6 to 15 years, could mimic so well the older generation. Margaret Bain as the Reader, gowned in a dress of pale mauve organdy, read the well-known libretto of the Pied Piper before the Operetta began and made her debut as an elocutionist in a most satisfactory and pleasing style. On stage. during the Operetta, the trio.sung by David Allan as Peter, Bob Rennie as Hans the Cook and Anne Schram. as Ka- trina, was very well done and the acting was most realistic. Pheobe Scatcherd as Mutter Katzenheimer and her son, Ja- cob, (Dawn Abercromble) also deserve comment along with Dorothy Schram, who, although she never said. or barked, more than Wow-wow. was really a very "tricky dog" and played her role to perfection. Hugh Clegg as the Town Crier and Douglas Jones, the Pied Piper. might possibly be called the stars of the Operetta. with Hugh providing the comedy re- lief and Douglas, who is 12 years old. handling his dramatic sing- ing role very nicely.

We hope it will not finish with Friday night's performance. but that it can be given before other audiences at a later date. The costumes for the musical, arranged by Matron Gladys Free- thy and her staff, with the kind help of the Stitch and Sew Club from Richmond Hill. played a big part in the production. There was not a great deal of money to spend on costumes but the ladies used a great deal of ingenuity to dress the actors and the results were very satis- factory for all concerned. A Mrs'. Hugh MacKay of Rich- mond Hill supplied the hats us- ed byrthe players. 7 During intermission Principal D. S. MacPherson introduced many of the honoured visitors among them being: Mrs. Amy Johnston, Mrs. Z. Free and Charles Carrey. Following the production a tour was made of the home with special attention being given to the well ordered classrooms where the children's work was on display. Refreshments were served in the dining-room by the ladies of the Richmond Hill Stitch and Sew Club at the close of the evening. Visitors at the Barbour home over the week-end were Mrs. Bat-hour‘s mother, Mrs. F. Smith and Mr. W. Bridle from Hamilton, and on Sunday, Mr. and Mrs. Bradford and their three children from Orillia. Ri- chard Barbour is in hospital at present in San Diego, where he underwent an appendectomy last week. Birthday wishes to Susan Shepherd.
