52. 12. B LITERARY Through the TV programme, put on by lZB on April l9th the cry for better commercials was thoroughly subduedt During Offbeat the audience's enthusiastic reactions were, of course, cued by the appropriate cards. To complete the overall affect, the pussy-footed cameramen, wheeled cameras up and down the aisles, with effortless ease, After the countdown by producer Colin Rigby, and intron- duction by the Master of Ceremonites, Ted Srnith, the show was underway, The first commercial showed us the effective, if not diss astrous, use of Russell Seltzer for minor aches and pains.. Joy Ride Jenny' alias Jenny Poortinga, slinked on stage to do a pantornine, Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered o Natually, such talent deserved a second comm- ercial, in which, both boys and girls were easily convinced that Dryl,creme is the one and only hair tonicf, Sylvia Stubbs then entertained us with a dem lightful piano solof, Shavings from Shakespeare followed, presented by that great comedy team, straight from Greenwich Village. Rigby and Fresco The Department of Highways drove home a safety message when the poor victim, Paul Salvian, front rolled into the waiting arnbulance., Miss .larnesinci McMullen Himp, returned this year with her newly acquired ballet pupilst So gracefully did they trips-toe across the stage, that an encore was unanimously called fort Two gurgling little babies rolled and playfully kicked their way through the next commercial, advertxis-1 ing Latex. pants.

54 PREPARATIONS FOR 1967 To people with imperceptive minds the emergence of Can-2 ada as a nation is remote and shadowy, but to those with a feeling for the force of history it is as near as yesterday. The lO0th anniversary of the confederation. of the provinces is a mere 5 years ahead of us and planning has already begun so that we may celebrate the event on a grand scale., We cannot be content to have only parades and pageants but some projects of worthwhile benefit should show to ourselves and to the world that we plan for a great future suitable to a great country. Instead of bronze plaques and marble monuments, we might unveil community improvements, new parks, new houses replacing slums, new city halls, museums, and libraries. These are things we need anye way and preparation for the Centenary gives us the opportunity and tncenc tive to get them now. An excellent chance is offered by the celebration to collect regional and local histories, a part of our culture which is badly neglected. While we are built on the bedrock of Z cultures, our country includes large members of other racial groups., This requires that we treat our Centenary in such a way as to emphasize our common Canadians ism. We have taken for granted that every Canadian will be eager to take part in the Centenary, but it will do us no harm to add up a few of the good reasons for being joyful. ln taking a backward glance we see that what we celebrate is the courage of the men and women who settled here, the good sense which enabled them to live and work together and the vision which prompted them to form this union we call Confederation , All of the good that is Canada today cannot be credited to passage of the British North American Act of l.867, but who can express the impact of that event upon what followed? In l.86'7, the provinces had no association with one another and every province operated under a sep-v arate government with its own political structureu Today-:separated by miles of mountains, rivers, forests and lakes, every region is making its own special and necessary contriv- bution to the confederation.
