mm v ytfc fcwy v worm irri-fc- j r sam wednesday may 11 1983 by jimlrving v ballantrab its a rough world when you cant fulfill the role you were meant for in life in fact the problem can be monstrous that was especially so in every way last week at ballantrae public school where a monstrous cast of students from grade 4 to grade 8 told the story of such old favorites from the world of misfits as count dracu- la frankensteins monster and others whose very seriousproblem was that they couldnt frighten anyone anymore thats like wayne gretzky not being able to score goals or the midas men not being able to repair car mufflers what do you do in a situation like that well if youre members of the cast of monster madness the ballantrae musical production you tell your story in a most delightful humorous and entertain ing manner and as things turned out you even get a happy ending from it all not that it wasnt a happy occasion for the audience throughout but those well- distressed monsters did face extinction even igor the ugly ogre so ably played by jordy davidson with his wild romp through the spectators to try to drum up a little terror found that the old magic was gone- still hope springs eternal in the human beast so to speak and before the evening was over this group of unhappy harpies and horrors had recaptured their self dis respect and could once more look forward to having those outside their realm cross to monsters the other side of the forest when they saw them coming n gf janet prince is a vivacioushappy medium whose crystal ball has been onjbe blink since daylight saving time and also displays a fine singing voice kelly ericson as vampira i vant to be alone is theperfect ghoul for the part while tracy blackwell v a grave situation gives a most unmoving performance as the tombstone t michael pongracz is excellent as the disillusioned dr frankenstein clint skid- more i like it i like it is a most capeable count dracula danny martin dr frankensteins un willing monster high gang is another heady presence impressive to everyone but his creator nathan monk is a woolly and willing wolfman the remainder of the cast is equally adept in its depiction of witches skeletons and suitably awed boys and girls full marks too to the big choir that backed them all both in their preshow presentation and accompaniment they performed musically and well just the kind of monsters youd be happy to run into anytime directors mrs georgia berry and mrs donna friedbacher and choral directors miss j wideman mme e cameron and brian cockburn and everyone else associ ated with the show the makeup and cos tumes would turn other monsters green in the spleen with envy can all take a mon- strous bow shade no problem bymarkcullen weall and cullen nurseries if your property is partially or even mostly shaded make no mistake you can still add a great deal of color to your landscape in fact shade gardening is easy if you choose your plants careful- ly many gardening articles and books have been dedicated lovingly to the creation of shade gardens the trick is to think positively of shade as an asset rather than a liability instead of wor rying about what you cant grow without sun think of what you can grow because you do have shade my recipe for a beautiful shade gar den looks like this for areas of full shade start with an evergreen planting of rich green yews add a dash of de ciduous evergreens like emerald gaie ty and sarcoxie euonymous hardy blue holly or boxwood then sprinkle liberally with bright shadehardy annuals and perennials thats one re cipe for a paradise in the shade for another in a partially shaded area cre ate a rhododendron bed with their spectacle blossoms rhododendrens can successfully rival just about any other plant for perennial additions try fragrant lily of the valley a longtime favourite for mass planting in shade or sun other perennials which do well in partial shade are astilbes and columbines ex otic daylilies viginia bluebells and bergamont and as for annual flowers just think of those that thrive in the shade be gonias impatiens and crystal palace lobelia are all wonderful for massing in the shade annuals for hanging baskets are no problem either in fact once youve seen a summer basket full of blue cascade lobelia fuschia or bro- wallia youll want to create a shady place if you dont have one already though ive never tried it myself there are those who maintain that ivy geraniums made wonderful ground covers in partially shaded cooler areas or try dwarf summer carpet new for 1983 areas of semishade with some morning sun are terrific spots for col- eus dianthus silvery dusty miller sweet scented nicotian and agcratum take a trip to your favourite garden centre today the selection of fresh bed ding plants suitable for sun or shade is tops right now just about any plant suitable for shade gardening can be found in the month of may so instead of bemoaning the shade in your yard put it to good use and experi ment a little youll soon find out why shade can be a hobby gardeners delight when the whitchurchstouffville band presents its spring concert thursday night the range in ages will be as great as the range in notes an example is mandy duval of ux- bridge and george pegg of stouffvil le mandy is seventeen mr pegg is eighty she plays the clarinet and he

heart said yes the rules said no town planning board agreed to go with its heart or at least the overall mood of the bylaw in- 1- volved s as a result an application from bern preston of rr 4 stouffville for a second residence on his 25acre parcel of land lot- 11 concession 5 for his son received tentative approval in presenting the request solicitor- donald c hindson of markham said he had originally informed his client that he would be unable to help him as the bylaw called for only one house per lot his client persisted however and gra- dually impressed upon me that there must be something this municipality could do with this in mind hindson suggested spot rezoning with a site plan agreement and without severances would the operation support two fami lies asked councillor fran sainsbury hindson said it wouldnt it would just keep them the present residents active and support their pensions their son who works elsewhere would assist them does the zoning bylaw not permit this asked mayor eldred king if theres anything ive missed im only too happy to be educated hindson replied mayor king said the municipality would be in a better position to support this if it dealt with it through a zoning amend ment a second dwelling could be allowed for a retiring farmer said councillor tom wood were on the horns of a dilemna the heart says yes but the rules say no were constantly faced with thisv i feel we could support it as hes not askingfor a severance said councillor sainsbury the house is that far back that it wouldnt disturb the neighbors hindson said that his mission is to work out a method whereby we can do this by site plan agreement and a zoning bylaw amendment depot going strong stouffville any rumors that the stouffville recycling depot is almost in the
