All By Norman Matthews The Kingsmen of King City United Church outdid themselves as they presented the 3rd annual dinner and variety show November 16 in the auditorium. Nearly 250 people turned out and en- joyed a dinner of roast beef, salad, gravy, baked potatoes, tea, coffee, and a variety of mouth-watering home-made pies. In order to accommodate that number of people, the dinner was divided into two sittings with a film entitled “Land- scape” (produced by the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources) shown to those who finished early. The organist for the variety show, Roy Robson (organist of Teston United and principal of Joseph A. Gibson School. Maple) started off by playing a medley of pieces on his electric Conn Organ. A skit called “Traffic Trouble” was next with a series of puns about King’s road- ways, including one which went “sometimes we wait long enough to see Bert Lute’s put up a new house". The all-male chorus with large bow ties and straw hats came down into the aisles and sang “We Want To Be Happy” and “When You’re Smiling”, shaking hands with the audience. Back on stage we saw skits “Ditch Diggers", “Birthday Cake”. “Poem Doctor and Plumber" (with Wayne Robson as the plumber and Bill McWhir as Dr. Homeowner, coming out with the line “bleeding at the joints" with the remedy being “take two aspirins and call me in the mor- ning". Another skit entitled “May Day” with Glen Ferguson referred to Rev. Grant Brown as “not in management, only in sales". A George M. Cohen medley preceded a skit called “Minister” in which a page of a minister‘s sermon is found missing as he repeats the line “So said Adam to Eve" in frustration until the gag line “there seems to be a leaf missing” comes out. Moving along quickly. the show continued with the chorus singing “Bye. Bye. Blackbird" and skits “Theatrical Agent", “Lodge Meeting", “Boss in House Man Shot" (Ross Urry and Howard Robles),. “Theophilus” (Glen Ferguson and Art Johnson) and “Dog at Vets‘X A barbershop quartet sang “Maggie” with audience participation Sing- a-Long immediately af- terwards. Zoltan Katona and Bill McWhir were in a long skit called the Auto Show" which takes place in the town of Introit and opened to the recorded music of the Murcury Bobcat commercial. Gag lines in this skit were puns magnificent, such as Rev. Grant Brown getting into a “fury” and ran out of gas. The only thing he could find to carry the gasoline in was a chamberpot. The rector was filling the gas tank with the pot when the Rev. Neville Bishop drove by and said “Grant. we often don‘t see eye to eye on theological matters, but I have to ad» mire your faith".

"Saloon Days" opened to the'taped sound of thun- dering hoofs and to the sight of we Kingsmen dressed in white cowboy hats standing in front of a saloon bar. (Whatever was the lady’s bra doing in the saddlebag carried by Zoltan Katona?) Three mini-skirt and bra dressed buxom lads danced around the stage and then came down into the audience to plant a juicy lip- stickâ€"smeared kiss on the forehead of yours truly as well as that of Bill Curran.

White gifts 700 years old Though feared by his enemies, the mighty Kublah Khan was loved and respected by his subjects. To show their affection for him, they decided one year to hold a great birthday celebration in his honor, and because he showed no favourites, they showed no difference in their gifts â€" all were wrapped in white and looked the same. And the emperor valued all the gifts equally. for they all bore the same degree of devotion and love, no matter what their value. In Parnesville at the turn of this century, many people felt then as now that Christmas festivities had become nothing more than a meaningless ritual of Santa Claus, lavish refreshments and self-indulgence.

In your bean you know il‘s right tried having parties where gifts were brought to be shared by others, but those who couldn’t afford ex- pensive gifts with ornate wrappings often stayed away. The minister’s wife in Parnesville remembered the legend of Kublah Khan, and instituted a similar practice of giving white- wrapped, anonymous gifts. The custom has since spread to many congregations. "The Liberal" is always pleased to publish items of interest regarding people and events in Oak Ridges - Lake Wil- cox and King City dis- tricts.
