Some are annual events and have a routine approach but others have a new look. Among the latter is Oshawa Little Theatre which for the first time in its history will have the advantage of presenting its plays in a theatre - type auditorium.

Gaslight And Grease Paint "We had touring companies presenting plays and operas; lecture tours and concerts, Recitations were the big thing then and "smokers" which were variety shows for men only. The Marks Brothers always booked for two weeks at least. They presented a different play each night and I went to every one of them. "Quite often they borrowed me, if they needed: a little girl in the cast.'The actors took rooms at Finne- gan's Hotel (The American Hotel) on the corner of Celina street but they spent much of their time at our place because it was more homey.

The audiences knew every line of them and when actors would 'dry up' as they sometimes did the prompts came from the floor. Ernie Marks was a great one at this. He always sailed through his parts with plenty of 'asides' and thanked the audience for its attention when he forgot the words and got a prompt from the back row." Amateur Shows Flourished Mrs. Solomon reminisced about the amateur shows and those who took part in them. She mentioned Mr. Percy Punshon, the school inspector who also wrote poetry; the Puckett Brothers and the Henderson Brothers who sang as a quartet; Mrs. Puckett who sang and acted; Orme Gamsby of Orono and Fred Carswell of Columbus and many others who participated in a production of HMS Pinafore in 1912. She remembered a horse being coaxed up thie main stairs because it was required in a play and a carpenter working for days afterwards restoring the dam- aged treads. She recalled Negro troupers and one in par- ticular who sang '"'The Holy City" better than anyone she has heard since; a featured Eskimo girl who was billed as eating nothing but raw meat, who sat at her mother's table and had a good home-cooked meal before she "went on" and Clara's young mind was troubled when she saw a temperance lecturer pour gin into the pitcher of water for the speaker's table. She forgot the lecture, watching the speaker sip the "water". . Perhaps the Marks Brothers contributed more to the cultural. entertainment of Ontario at the turn of the cen- tury than any other performers. All but one of the seven brothers was in show business, started by Robert, the eldest, a patent medicine man. Tom, the shoemaker and a comedian joined him and at one time there were seven companies on the road. Joe was the "advance man' and he and Kitty always came to Oshawa. In a radio inter- view not long before she died, Kitty Marks, recalled her courtship by Ernie Marks, the trick bicycle rider and actor. Possessed of a lyrical voice and trained in the choir of St. Francis Xavier Church, Brockville, Kitty was billed as a specialty between acts until she graduated to leading roles in "Tess of the Storm Country", 'Within the Law', "Little Nell" and "Lady Isobel'. Illusions In The Dust She described the "awful fascination' of the theatre with its dirty dressing rooms, lack of facilities and the hardship of travelling and rearing a family. During the summer, the Marks brothers would all re- assemble at the family home at Christie Lake, help their father on the farm and prepare their repertoire for: the coming season. After two weeks' rehearsal they would open in Perth. Their booking agent was Ambrose Small whose mysterious disappearance in Toronto has never been solved. The Marks played Kingston, Belleville, Brockville, Oshawa and Lindsay Fair for 21 years straight, with over- night stops between. They even travelled as far as Ed- monton, Winnipeg and London, Ontario. On arrival in Oshawa, they always created a stir at the Four Corners where they set up a little stage in the mud or dust, according to the season. A few of the musi- cians in the company would strike up a lively tune, then Ernie or Joe would "spiel" the coming attractions and added entertainments to the passersby, men on their way to McLaughlin Carriage Works or the Pedlar People fac- tory, close by, and women doing their daily shopping. Finnegan's has gone. The Music Halli has gone. East- dale has arrived and spanning the years is a parade of performers, amateur and professional, whose zeal has brought color, laughter and tears to a work-a-day world. How many ghosts wil] be standing in the wings when the A surprise dinner party was held in the auditorium of Har- mony United Church for the Reverend and Mrs. N. G. Sib- lock, Dean avenue, to celebrate their silver wedding anniver- sary. Mrs. Siblock is the former Miss Olga Wasiluke, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Wasiluke, and the - Reverend N. G.

They nave Mise Sharon Siblock, a_ third-year student at the Oshawa General Hospital School of Nursing, and Robert, at home. On arrival, the couple was escorted to their table while the wedding march was played and the mothers of the bride and bridegroom pinned on their cor- sage and boutonniere. The Reverend George C. Smith said grace. As the guests were served a hot turkey din- ner, the master of ceremonies, Mr. Edward Homes, brother- in-law of the couple introduced those at the head table, includ- ing the original bridal party as follows: Mrs. Boris Nowlan,(nee Petruchik, maid of honor; Mrs. Michael Deboski (nee Litov- chik), bridesmaid; Mr. Micahel Shevchuk, best man; Mr. An- thony Siblock, usher.
