Nice horsy Holly Gray, a guide at the Establish- ments, was horsing around with Prince, a six-year-old Belgian horse Friday afternoon at the historic site. This summer, the number of visits to the Naval and Military Estabiish- ments are up over the same period last year, to 9,300. In May and June, Obituary Ontario residents accounted for the most number of visits and _ sur- prisingly, residents of England are second, ahead of Quebeckers. The staff at the Establishments have also welcomed tourists from Holland, Belgium, Germany, Finland, Sweden, New Zealand, Australia and the USA. by Terry Dupuis One of the most outstanding family en- tertainment shows of all time is being reissued as a summer treat for moviegoers by the Walt Disney studio. The Walt Disney studio achieved its greatest triumph back in 1964 with its production of Mary Poppins. It turned out to be the last feature film to be personally supervised by Walt Disney before his death. Based upon the Mary Poppins books by P.L. Travers, this Disney movie became an in- stant classic due to a number of ingredients which included an appealing performance by Julie Andrews in the title role, fine support by Dick -Van Dyke, memorable tunes, daz- zling special effects, and a magical story book charm all its own. Mary Poppins is a magical nanny who "comes to London to look after two unhappy children Jane and Michael. They live in a fashionable residential area, but their father is kept busy with his job at a bank, and their mother is involved in the suffragette movement, trying to win women the right to vote. The children have had a succession of nannies who come and go. Mr. Banks is at his wits' end trying to find a suitable governess for the children, and he ends up hiring Mary Poppins, little realizing this woman's remarkable magical gifts. Julie Andrews made her screen debut in Mary Poppins, after a successful stage career which included 'Camelot' and 'My Fair Ladv'. So charming was her performance in Mary Poppins About magic nanny theis first-movie that she won the Academy Award that year for Best Actress. Dick Van Dyke also shines in the role of her friend Bert, a street entertainer who also dabbles as an artist and a chimney sweep. He also plays a secondary part as old man Dawes, the grouchy old man who runs the bank. The late Ed Wynn has an amusing role as Uncle Albert, while David Tomlinson and Glynis Johns make solid contributions to the picture as Mr. and Mrs. Banks, the children's parents. And Karen Dotrice and Matthew Garber make a likeable pair of children in the roles of Jane and Michael. The memorable musical score for Mary Poppins was written by Richard and Robert Sherman.. Their songs for the movie include such hit tunes as 'A Spoonful of Sugar', 'Let's Go Fly A Kite' and a song which won the Academy Award that year as Best Song, 'Chim Chim Cheree'. And one of the songs introduced a new word into the language - 'supercalifragilisticexpialidocious'! The special effects for Mary Poppins are first-rate and rank among Disney's finest magical screen efforts. One sequence is particularly brilliant in the way in which it synchronized live actors with cartoons. And there is a superbly choreographed dance sequence involving chimney sweeps on the London rooftops. Not surprisingly, Mary Poppins has often been acclaimed as Walt Disney's supreme achievement in screen entertainment.
