A fascinating account of Can- adian Folk Arts and Crafts, sparkâ€" ling with wit and humour, was given by Mr. Thor Hansen, Dan- ish born artist and designer. It may be said that Thor Hansen isi to Canadian Art and Design, what John Fisher is to Canada. Quot- ing George Bernard Shaw, that we make plans for immortality but don’t know what to do on a rainy Saturday afternoon, Thor Hansen stated that frustration stems from being spectators, in- stead of participants. Through our minds and hands comes crea- tive power and by handwork, whether weaving, painting,» wood- work, etc., we could cut down mental diseases, which now occu- py 55 per cent of our hospitals. Culture is the never ending quest for beauty and happiness consists in mah‘s creative imagination. Skilled craft is needed in Canaâ€" da and is necessary to the econâ€" omy of the country. $12,000.000 a year is spent to import articles used for tourist souvenirs. Mr. Hansen- concluded his talk with Kodachrome slides portraying his indescribably beautiful designs, depicting Canadiana, which have been incorporated into the inter- ior decorating scheme of one of theiargest industries in the coun- try. Mr. Hansen was introduced by Mr. George Spratt and thanked by Mr. Doug Boyd.

TU. 4-2864 It was "Theatre Night." for York County's university women at Kingcraft House, King City, last Monday evening when they were privileged to have as guest speaker at their regular monthly meeting Mr. Malcolm Black, Pro- duction Manager of the Crest Theatre in Toronto. Mrs. Bruce Davis of King introduced Mr. Black who, although still a young man, has a record of some ten years in the theatre. His career commenced with a scholarship to the Old Vic, he was later Studio Manager for radio and television with the B.B.C., and is now in his third season with the Crest- Thea- tre in Toronto.. Mr. Black spoke on “Play Pro- ductlon” with special emphasis on “Pygmallon” which he is di- recting for the Crest and which will open at that theatre follow- ing the current production of "In- herit The Wind." It stars Douglas Rain as Prof. Higgins, William Needles, and others well known to all Toronto theatre-goers. Mr. Black traced the progress of a Production at the Crest from the time a play is first read until it reaches the stage on opening night. The short rehearsal period of only two weeks for every play o'ten creates problems for those in charge of production. When it comes to acquiring properties for a period piece such as “Pygmal- ion,” for instance. steps must be taken well in advance as the hunt for some elusive item can prove to be a long one. A "Play Production" Theme York University Women Mr. M. Black, Crest Theatre In choosing a play for produc- tion, consideration must be given to such questions as, Are the rights available?-â€"-Are the set- tings and number of characters practical for our stage? â€"â€" Does this play, considered with the other plays already chosen for production this season, make for good programming? A director is chosen whOse style suits the type of play to be produced. \Actors and actressesmre chosen for their parts more on the basis of wheth- er or not they fit the type of character the author had in mind The death occurred at Toron- to on Sunday, November 23, of Mr. Earl Graham of Markham, in his 57th year. A son of Mr. and Mrs. A. P. Graham, he had lived in the Village of Markham since boyhood. For many years he had operated the store and post office in North Markham. He was secretary-treasurer of Markham Citizens’ Band when it was flourishing and a Past Noble Grand of Markham Oddfeliows. He took a keen interest in Mark- ham Fair and had been a direc- tor for nearly 20 years. In_ 1951 he was president and in later years was in charge of the child- ren’s exhibits and the luncheon for the directors. He was secretary of the RH. D.P. authority before it was am- algamated with the present au- thority. A member of the United Church he had served on the MacKiiIop Home& School Hear About Health Unit Vice-president Ken Smithies presided at the November meet- ing of the MacKillop Home and School Association on Wednesday. November 26. He asked the par- ents to help support the current drive for retarded children and also invited any interested moth- ers to assist at the Well-Baby Clinic, which is being held at MacKillop School the first four Mondays of each month. Candidates Speak Mr. Robert Newman, principal, read a letter of thanks from UNICEF for $127.27, gathered by pupils of grades 4, 5, 6 on Hal- lowe'en. Miss Staunton, a Mac- Killop teacher, is recovering nice~ 1y after surgery and hopes to be back after Christm 5. There will soon be two additi nal portables at the school to accommodate the ever-growing attendance. Mr. Trevor Pierce. programme convenor. introduced Miss Verna Smyth. supervisor of York County Health Unit, who spoke about the public health program in our community. The Health Unit was started 'in 1950 and now main- tains a staff of a doctor, 18 nurs- es,’ plus health inspectors. The nurses will go Into the home to instruct‘ new mothers in the care of a baby or show how nursing procedures should be carried out for the sick at home; they conduct a pre-school round-up each year and maintain a school health pro- Earl H.

Their contribution to community living is invaluable. Mr. Newman played b ck a tape recording of a grade 1 c ass. sing- ing a morning health check â€" a delightful experience. _ Mrs. Buckley, the nurse for Mrs. Buckley, the nurse for MacKillop School, is leaving to became senior nurse for the York County Health Unit and Mrs. Blanche Gordon will be taking her place at the school every Monday morning. Mrs. Buckley explained the Health Program carried out in each school -â€" a health record for each child. im- munx’ation program, vision testing rather than whether or not they have read well for the part, al- though this latter. of course, is taken into consideration too. The acts are rehearsed separ- ately until the middle of the second week when a complete run~through is held. It is then that the producer comes to view the play for the first time. Mr. Black described the week-ends preceding the openings as night- mares. The set of the previous play has to come down and the new one erected. all in a very short period of time. None of this is done on Sunday. But work on the new set is started Mon day .morning. A preview of the play is held Tuesday evening and the opening takes place on Wed- nesday. Those in the theatre con- sider the opening night perform~ ance an important one and strive for perfection for this is the per- formance on which the critics base their reviews, which in turn affect the receipts at the box of- fice. Costumes for a production are designed to express the character as well as the period. The Crest is accumulating quite a stock of costumes which are stored in a shop several doors from the theatre. These are rented to the public as an additional source of revem‘1e. Many of the costumes worn in "Pygmalion’l are authen- tic ones which have been donated by private individuals in il‘oron- Mr. Black also touched on other aspects of play production such as set design, lighting and the promotion of a show. u_,_L-.1 1... r-v” w â€"r 7 ~ The speaker was thanked by Mrs. G.
