This is my third time to re- view this group and I still find their control over balance and amplification far superior to many other groups. My only criticism would be the "same- ness" of their songs which be- gin to sound much alike to- wards the end of a long per- formance. A few songs per- formed by one or two only of the group might give some ad- ded variety or "change of pace" to their otherwise great show. Their fantastic rhythm is com- plimented by the humorous chit- chat the five of them enjoy in between selections: such com- ments as "Bob Wallace is as hung up as Gene Autrey's pis- tols" brought laughter from the crowd. With a TV appearance under their belt. the Slickers are turn- ing "professional" in status (which their performances have been for some time) and are joining the musicians' union. Women’s Institute Laskay WI held a dance March 17 in the Laskay Hall with over 60 people in attend- ance. Everyone enjoyed danc- ing to the music of Fergus Law- son and his orchestra who have played for this group many times before. Door prize win- ners were Nonie and Jack Gar- butt, Frances and Pete Laurett. Juanita and Bruce Ella, Sarah and Brian Cole, Barb and Cliff Oliver and Agnes and Tom Walker. Coffee, sandwiches and donuts proved the refresh- ments afterwards. 0n the auditorium stage of All Saint's Anglican Church. the group gave a great show at an accelerated pace. singing such songs as “He Was A Friend of Mine", "Country Roads". "Wild. Wild Women" and "Okle From Muskogee". Much of their show consisted of instrumental pieces such as "Pony Express" with the mood of the gold mines in California implanted in our minds. A euchre was held by the Laskay WI March 10 with win- ners in the ladies' group being Jean Leatherdale and Marion Ball. and in the men's group being Robert Ball and William Orr. ' Low for the ladies was Jean McMurchy. and for the men. Harold Dooks. The door prize was won by Tom and Agnes Walker.

They say the program should appeal to teachers of adults or people who have leadership responsibilities who Our column is relatively short this week, as our family took off for a short holiday in Niagara Falls which our child- ren had never seen. We stay- ed at the Park Motor Hotel on Clifton Hill where we found the accommodation quite reasonable for a family of six and the food very good. The seven dollar charge to take the elevator to the top of the Skylon shock me a bit, but the thrill of eating in their revolving lounge was worth it. Our four girls en- joyed having their own hotel room with TV and found the indoor heated pool lots of fun. especially at night. Donna and By one o'clock we were fam- ished. having sung boisterously in church. and asked the at- tractive negro waitress for a menu. She informed us that it was on the table in front of us. pointing to a folded cardboard sign which contained a break- fast menu, sandwiches and a bar list. I said that Donna and I wanted a full course meal but to no avail. as the waitress said that all they were serving was what was on the card. In other words. “What you see is what you get"! Reading the menu (1’), the ham sandwich was $1.00, club sandwich $1.50. hamburger $1.50, cheeseburger $1.65. and an open faced steak sandwich a la maison at $1.95. We had just passed a Red Barn a half hour before and these prices ‘sort of made my sense of rea- son object. but nevertheless, I had promised “dinner out" and we were hungry. We ordered two ham sand- wiches. two club sandwiches for the children and Don- na and I had the open faced steak. I asked for a drink from the bar but was told no drinks were served until 5 o'clock much to our dismay (for even Maple's Honey Pot serves drinks on Sunday with food anytime after noon). As such, we had tea while the girls had a glass of gingerale at 20c each. The club and ham sand- \vlches were plentiful enough and a cold slaw side dish was tasty. but our steak left me more open faced than it. Taste- less and hard to cut or chew. it was by no means enjoyable. No desserts were included in the prices. nor were they offer- ed as extras: and a second cup of coffee was never presented. The bill for lunch was $9.70. We sort of wondered why several couples entered the din- ing room while we were eat- ing, went to sit down, and then left instead! Mid-Term Holidays I were able to enjoy drinks in the hotel's lounge and still watch the children In the pool. Ah! Such is the life!
