Daigle asked the Supreme Court of Canada on Thursday to lift an injunction barring her from having an abortion.She also requested the right to appeal a Quebec court ruling that places the rights of a fetus above those of a woman.Lawyers for Daigle and her former boyfriend Jean-Guy Tremblay, who was granted the injunction by the Quebec Superior Court on July 17, will hold a preliminary meeting this morning with Mr.Justice Charles Gonthier of the Supreme Court.Lucien Cliche, one of Daigle’s lawyers, said the meeting will deal with procedure in handling the motion for leave to appeal.“It’s a sign they are taking it very seriously,’’ Cliche said of the unusual conference before Gonthier, likely one of the judges who will be dealing with the appeal request.Cliche said it is possible that arguments may be heard Monday.Daigle is 21 weeks pregnant and her lawyers asked the court to deal with the case urgently.Cliche said documents including the injunction ruling by Mr.Justice Jacques Viens of the Quebec Superior Court and the Quebec Court of Appeal ruling on Wednesday upholding the original injunction will be filed with the Supreme Court this morning.Meanwhile, NDP Leader Ed Broadbent said he believes the Supreme Court will ‘almost certainly" grant Daigle, 21, leave to appeal.He said he has written to Prime Minister Brian Mulroney asking him to direct Justice Minister Doug Lewis to intervene in the appeal.Broadbent said women have a right to privacy and the government should intervene to see that injunctions are not used in abortion cases again.He also said that last year’s landmark ruling on abortion by the Supreme Court should be respected.In that ruling, Criminal Code provisions governing abortion were struck down as infringements on the right to security enjoyed by women “The government of Canada should not stand back and watch the private lives and the most intimate matters of the women of Canada portrayed on the front pages of our newspapers and in the news broadcasts of our radio and television networks day after day,” Broadbent said.He then joined several hundred people, mostly women, in a protest demonstration in front of the Supreme Court, two blocks west of Parliament Hill.New Democrat MPs Nelson Riis and Audrey McLaughlin also stood in heavy rain in front of the court as the crowd gathered.Cindy Moriarty, a spokesman for the Canadian Abortion Rights League, said the crowd would have been larger if it wasn’t for the rain and rush-hour traffic jams.Inside the court house, meanwhile, Chief Justice Brian Dickson and Justices Gonthier and John Sopinka had been standing by all day as the Daigle drama unfolded.The other six judges were either nearby or returning to Ottawa.And all nine, if leave if granted, could hear the appeal soon.The drama caught the court in the middle of its summer recess, when the judges generally write decisions on cases heard earlier.The fall term of the court doesn’t begin until Oct.2, but the court could schedule a quick hearing and hand down a ruling from the bench.Average time for producing a judgment after hearing an appeal is six months, but some are handed down almost immediately.Earlier this year, the court refused to deal with the issue of fetal rights in an appeal brought by Manitoba anti-abortion crusader Joe Borowski.The reason was the therapeutic abortion law which Borowski was attacking no longer existed, having been invalidated by the ruling in the case of Dr.Henry Morgentaler.But the Daigle ruling by the Quebec Court of Appeal thrust the issue into the court’s lap suddenly Three of the five Quebec judges ruled the fetus has rights.“The child that has been conceived but not bom is a reality that must be taken into account,” Mr.Justice Yves Bernier, 73, said in the Quebec ruling.“It is not an inanimate object nor the property of anyone, but a living human entity distinct from the mother.and has the right to life and protection from those who conceived it.” Bernier also recognized the uncontested rights of Tremblay as the father of the child.“It is just as much his child as it is the mother’s; not more, not less,” the judge said.But Madam Justice Christine Tourigny, the only woman on the panel, disagreed and had support from Mr.Justice Roger Chouinard.“In my opinion the fetus is not a person and cannot benefit from the rights granted to persons by the (Canadian and Quebec) charters,” Tourigny, a single woman of 46, said.Tourigny said the injunction restricts rights guaranteed Daigle by the Canadian Constitution and should not have been granted Supreme Court ruling to form abortion law — PM PORT-AU-SAUMON, Que.(CP) — Consideration of the Chantal Daigle case by the Supreme Court of Canada is unlikeiy to delay legislation to regulate abortion in Canada.Prime Minis-ter Brian Mulroney said Thursday.Asked if the government could not delay drafting a law until a Supreme Court ruling on the case, Mulroney said: “I think I’ve already indicated that nothing will be done until the House comes back and presum ably.if the Supreme Court rules on this matter it will be before Sept.25.” Lawyers for Daigle say they have filed documents with the Supreme Court to appeal the Quebec Court of Appeal ruling on Wednesday forbidding her to have an abortion.The Supreme Court has not said if it will hear the appeal.Parliament will not be recalled this summer to rush through an abortion bill, Mulroney told reporters during a visit to an ecology centre in his riding of Charlevoix, east of Quebec City.“There’s no foot race,” the prime minister said as he left a centre where he and his family spent a relaxed hour with children who are attending a summer camp which teaches conservation.Daigle is 21 weeks pregnant and has only about three weeks to have an abortion.She would probably have to go to the United States because few Quebec hospitals or clinics will perform the operation after 20 weeks.Weather, page 2 Sherbrooke Friday, July 28, 1989 50 cents Abortion: Gynecologist worries ‘boyfriends' might sue By Sarah Binder MONTREAL (CP) — Dr.Edwin Coffey has asked his lawyer to find out if he can be sued by any "disgruntled boyfriend” as a result of the Chantal Daigle appeal court ruling Wednesday.Other Quebec doctors who do abortions are also seeking legal advice, and those who aren’t should, cautions Coffey, a Montreal gynecologist and secretary of the Quebec Medical Association.The Quebec Court of Appeal upheld an injunction won by Daigle’s boyfriend, Jean-Guy Tremblay, which prevents her from getting an abortion.So far.the judgment hasn't changed the way the province’s hospitals and health clinics are carrying out abortions.But it has plunged them into a state of uncertainty.And if their lawyers decide in one or two days that they are liable to be sued by the fathers of unborn babies, they could move to restrict the relatively easy access to abor tion Quebec women have long en joyed, Coffey said "It’s a big question mark," Cof fey, who is affiliated with the Mon treal General Hospital, said Thurs day.“We'll have to wait for guidelines.” A quick survey of the some 50 hospitals which offer the procedure in the province revealed no move to change their practices, said Michel Cleroux, spokesman for the Quebec Hospitals Association.“The decision was on a specific case and so there shouldn't be consequences on the functioning of hospitals.That's at first view, but we re studying it," he said ‘COPY CATS COMING But because "copy cat” injune- See ABORTION, page Daigle’s

become trend By Dennis Bueckert OTTAWA (CP) — The spectacular fires in northern Manitoba this summer are part of a trend toward sharply-increasing forest fire activity in Canada that has scientists worried.The average forest area destroyed by fire annually throughout Canada has risen steeply in the 1980s, says Don Maclver, forest meteorologist with the federal Atmospheric Environment Service.“The rate of increase, in terms of millions of hectares burned, has been unprecedented,” said Maclver in an interview earlier this week.“At this point it (the national average burned area) is at a higher point than we have ever seen in our recorded history.” Averaging the annual figures over 10-year periods, the national area burned in fires increased to 2.3 million hectares in 1986 from 600,000 hectares in 1967, he said.So far this year, 2.57 million hectares of Canadian forest have burned, officials at the Canadian Inter-Agency Forest Fire Centre in Winnipeg said on Thursday.The rising fire damage has become a major scientific and forestry issue, said Maclver "There’s no question about that at all.” Prior to the late 1960s, the average national burned area had been declining due to better fire fighting techniques.MANY FACTORS Possible reasons for the greater fire damage trend include mecha nization of forestry operations, which increases the risk of fire starts from machinery, and increased recreational access to the forest through logging roads Climate change may also be a factor.Prior to this week's outbreak of forest fires in northern Manitoba, daily temperature records were broken at many locations for several consecutive days, said Peter Scholefield of the Atmospheric Environment Service.‘‘What really set them (the fires) off was the extreme heat, ” he said Scientists have predicted for years that global warming associ ated with the greenhouse effect will lead to increased forest fire activity, and six of the warmest years on record have occurred in the 1980s.“If climate change is coming, this sure enough looks like it,” said Van Wagner, a researcher with the Petawawa National Forestry In stitute at Chalk River, Ont.He has analysed forest (ire records dating from 1918, and says the trend could stretch forest fire management to its limits if it continues to its rise.James Bay woodlands flare up again MONTREAL (CP) - A forest fire that started in the James Bay area more than three weeks ago flared up again this week, forcing the evacuation of about 150 tourists when the blaze came within 20 kilometres of Radisson, a village near the LG-2 hydro site.The fire was moving again Thursday afternoon after slowing on Wednesday, said Serge Marcoux, a Hydro-Quebec official working with the Radisson emergency committee.While the fire, located northwest of Radisson, is on the other side of the La Grande River, wind gusts of up to 25 kilometres an hour blew burning debris across the river.The fire is under control, however, Marcoux said.Plans to evacuate women and children — numbering about 260 — are still on hold, said Francois Nolasco, a James Bay Energy Corp.official, from Radisson.The fire came within six kilometres of the LG-2 hydroelectric installations on Tuesday, he said.On Tuesday, all tourists — mostly people on fishing trips — were escorted out of Radisson by provincial police and driven in convoys to three southern towns The fire started July 2.It now has destroyed more than 20,000 hectares of forest in northwestern Quebec but authorities are hoping for a reprieve because cooler weather has been forecast.CAMPFIRES BANNED There are now 134 forest fires burning in Quebec.A ban on open-air campsite fires is in effect across Quebec except in the Outaouais, Lac St-Jean, Saguenay and Abitibi-Temiscamingue regions.The provincial government has suspended hunting, fishing and most leisure activités at Mont Tremblant Park, 120 kilometres north of Montreal, because of the threat of forest fires.A forest fire in the southern end of the park has been burning since last week.The park will maintain the ban on activities until the weather improves While most activties have been suspended, the park is still open.Tourists can stay at chalets or camp in areas with the greatest accessibility.Shares up as Steinberg’s bidding war continues MONTREAL (CP) — An old-fashioned bidding war broke out Thursday for Steinberg Inc.as a Toronto consortium upped its bid for the Quebec grocery giant.Oxdon Investments Inc.boosted its offer for the Steinberg nonvoting shares to $53 from $50.The bid for the non-voting shares was $2 higher than proposed by Steinberg’s lead suitors, Michel Gaucher, president of Socanav Inc., and the Caisse de depot et placement du Quebec which manages the province’s pension funds.The move followed last week’s decision by Gaucher and the Caisse to exercise an exclusive option to buy a 52-per-cent controlling block of Steinberg voting shares and three per cent of Class A nonvoting shares owned by the daughters of late company founder Sam Steinberg.“Mr.Gaucher can have all the control he likes, but until he can put his hand on all the Class A shares, he cannot consolidate all the earnings,” said Bruno Marchand, an investment analyst at Brault Guy O’Brien Inc.of Montreal The Class A shares represent 15,000 shares out of a total of 21,000 shares Oxdon left its bid for the common shares unchanged at $75, the same as the offer by Gaucher and the Caisse But Oxdon said its shareholders have agreed to commit another $250 million in equity to Oxdon to allow the company to buy all outstanding common shares of Steinberg.The late afternoon announcement was the latest twist in a prolonged takeover battle for Steinberg, the province’s third largest employer with 18,000 workers.Gaucher and the Caisse have until July 31 to tender their offer under the agreement with the Steinberg sisters Origi .imec at Lng intensities because the text is

in Jacques Proulx.‘Vfe need a national consensus.’ CHERRY RIVER — Canadian farm leaders are slowly forming a united front to combat the federal government’s attitude towards agriculture.Farmers want more input in agricultural trade policy and will no longer be used as “poker chips” in international trade negotiations, delegates concluded after the Canadian Federation of Agriculture (CFA) three-day semi-annual convention ended Thursday.“Delegates were extremely hostile and expressed a great deal of frustration at the federal government throughout the conference,” said CFA president Don Knoerr.Knoerr said the CFA fears government is gradually dismantling stabilization programs, marketing boards and quota systems to help make trade deals outside the farm sector.“The government’s vision of agriculture is incompatible with the vision of farmers,” added Knoerr, a British Columbia farmer who now spends most of his time in Ottawa lobbying for CFA concerns.HAVE A TALK “We know what is presently on the bargaining table and we are planning to sit down with government to have a talk," he said.One of the most pressing issues for farmers, Knoerr said, is to let government know how important the federal Farm Credit Corporation is to them.‘ We re going to have to sit down with the farmers and see exactly what they need from it, Knoerr said of the credit agency, which is currently losing its clientele.“We are going to lose it because farmers are not using it.The number of loans is going down every year,” he said.Farmers are not taking advantage of the service because it is cheaper to borrow money from a bank right now, he added.“There is no government policy to let them issue special or realistic loans to farmers,” he said.TRADE COMMITTEE In hope of forming a united front from coast to coast, the 30-odd CFA delegates at the convention voted to create a small, highly centralized trade committee to compile and decipher ongoing trade deals.Quebec delegates went further and suggested that the CFA form regional farmers’ groups and have members hash out their concerns on agriculture, leading up to a provincial and then national convention.“We need a national consensus, a grande politique on the future,” said CFA vice-president Jacques Proulx, also president of Quebec’s Union des Producteurs Agricole (UPA).“We ha ve to ask all farmers what they think the future will be like in the year 2000,” he said.Though time ran out for conference delegates as check-out hour approached at the Chéribourg Hotel, Proulx’s suggestion is scheduled to be picked up at the next CFA executive meeting.Don Knoerr.Farming has been lost in the trade shuffle.Researchers fight 4the splash’ in every drop Ag-Canada rainmakers study soil erosion and how to stop it By John Tollefsrud STOKE — Agriculture Canada researchers are out to help Eastern Townships farmers save their most precious resource — the soil, the basis of farming.“If they don’t take care of the soil they’re going to lose it,” said Farhad Salehi, project leader for a series of soil-erosion studies nearing completion.Salehi should know.He is an agricultural engineer and all summer he has directed a crack team of experts and students use a rain simulator to study and collect data on the amount of topsoil loss during heavy rainfall.The two-year, $100,700 project is funded by a Quebec Canada agreement.“1 think our research could be IS very helpful to the farmers because it’s only the topsoil they can use for agriculture,” Salehi said Thursday at a field graciously ‘loaned out’ to the team.According to the 28 year-old soils expert, the co-operation of Townships farmers has been critical to the research.FARMERS’ CO-OPERATION “We have the full co-operation of farmers in the area ; they give us permission to work on their soils,” Salehi said before discussing anything else.“They always co operate with full enthusiasm.” Thursday it was the Graham family in Stoke who allowed Salehi to use their farmland for research.Joining Salehi under a hot sun and humid conditions were fellow agricultural engineer Reza Geramine- r -• Agricultural engineer Farhad Salehi displays his collection system for topsoil runoff in Ifxperimental fields.jad, geographer Daniel Baril and two shovel-and-pick-toting students, Simon Baliddawa and Eric Pastor.Not on site Thursday were student Hans Pesant, project chief Alain Pesant, both at the Lennox-ville station, and consultant Robert Lagacé from Laval University.The soil-erosion research is not just a confirmation of the obvious.While erosion by rainfall is well known, the various levels of soil runoff can help a farmer realize more precisely how much soil a piece of land is losing.Then the farmer can take the necessary measures to reduce the costly erosion.The research is especially relevant in the Townships where hilly conditions are often found and intense agriculture is the name of the game.Salehi described the situation.“In the first two months of the growing season plants are not developed so the soil coverage is practically none,” he said.“The soil is exposed to rainfall — any rainfall can corne and erode the soil, especially in this region be cause there are steeper slopes.” 10 AREAS STUDIED The research team, based at the Agriculture Canada station near Lennoxville, has studied soils in 10 different areas of the Townships, including Lennoxville, Johnville and Martinville.On each site three fields plots are taken, which measure three metres by five metres.In Stoke a layer of sod was lifted off and underlying topsoil was broken up, roots and rocks removed and the area made level.The three fields are chosen for their different slopes, including 0-5 per cent, 5-10 and 10-15.The ‘Rainmaker’, a home-made watering system, is then used to apply water on the area as though it were a real rainfall — and a heavy one at that.Salehi said the simulator typically generates 63.5 millimetres per hour.It is fed by water pumped from a 6000-litre tank.a ¦ ¦ .Rain-talk: Farhad Salehi (at left) discusses Agriculture Canada's rain simulator with co-workers Simon Baliddawa and Daniel Baril.The aluminum-frame device was invented by an American named Meyer and has been modified by the Lennoxville team.The soil is rained on for one hour — two 3(V minute sessions with a 10-minute interval.There are 12 sprinklers, four on each crossbar, but only six operate at a time.Water and the accompanying soil runoff are collected in large white pails for later analysis at the research station.Results will be made public in January.The crowning achievement of the research will be a de-tailed map of the Eastern Townships, designating areas according to their soil-erosion vulnerability.SOILS MATH “When we find these values we can use an equation called the Uni- versal Soil Loss Equation, or USLE,” Salehi explained.“We can use it to figure the amount of soil eroded per hectare per year.” Salehi wrote his masters degree thesis on the American equation, showing successfully that the formula can be used in Canada as well.Among previous research he used in his studies are natural rainful experiments conducted in Lennoxville between 1973 and 1976.While final conclusions have yet to be drawn, Salehi has some advice for farmers who suffer soil loss.“Don’t till the soil too much,” he said, referring to the no-till system which has shown good results in many situations.Also, in seeding crops like corn, farmers should plant across slopes and completely avoid planting downward-sloping rows, no matter how slight the slope may be.Although countour planting is an ancient soil-conservation method, many farmers don’t bother to use it.And erosion caused by rain is no laughing matter.“The erosive force of every rain drop causes an action called the splash’.” The Lennoxville centre s research may help diminish the damage of that splash.ABORTION: Continued from page one.tions are almost inevitable, Cler-oux added, “it has become imperative and urgent that the government pass a law.” Two downtown community health clinics — one which refers women for abortions, and one which performs abortions — said they are carefully watching for legal interpretations of the ruling.For the moment, it is business as usual.Dr.Ginette Fortier, who works at a clinic in Laval, just north of Montreal, which does roughly five abortions a weék, said the sole effect the decision had on patients was to “turn the stomach” of some undergoing an abortion.But Coffey said some patients waiting for abortions are “quite upset” and have been calling their doctors to inquire if there are changes.“Patients are being told services are proceeding as usual,” he said, while institutions are studying the next step.Coffey said he was worried new guidelines might restrict abortions that require only the consent of a woman and her doctor to pregnancies under 12 weeks, and that fetal rights “will have higher priority as pregnancy develops.” The appeal court decision “turned the situation quite seriously against open abortion,” he said.There are about 17,000 abortions a year in Quebec, said Augustin Roy, head of (he provincial medical professional association.Most —____tef nocora George MecLeren, Publisher.569-9511 Randy Klnnear, Assistant Publisher.569-9511 Charles Bury,

Rita Legault SHERBROOKE — A member of a local anti-nuclear coalition which nelped stop the building of a thermal reactor here has just returned from Saskatoon where he helped a iroup opposed to a similar project.Saskatoon is the latest place «vhere Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL) hopes to build a prototype of its Slowpoke nuclear fenerator like the one planned for sherbrooke University Hospital CHUS).Tom Vandermeulen, a member )f the CHUS Coalition (Coalition to Continue Hydro not Uranium for jur Safety) which opposed the CHUS Slowpoke, said the fight will no be so easy out west.The CHUS Coalition hopes its experience here will help the newly-formed Pokebusters against AECL, which now plans to build a 10-megawatt Slowpoke at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon.LEARNED A LESSON But while the Pokebusters are getting help from the Crown corporation’s former foes, Vandermeulen said AECL is also using its Sherbrooke experience to squelch any public opposition.“AECL will certainly use the Sherbrooke experience to avoid the pitfalls it met here,” he said in a telephone interview Thursday.“They are moving much more quickly and have already set up offices on campus.” Vandermeulen was invited west by the Saskatoon Environmental Society.He said the trip was intended to "distill the lessons we learned from the campaign in Sherbrooke and to pass it on to our fellow citizen advocates.” He said he wants to encourage Saskatooners to ask AECL questions about the safety and risks of the Slowpoke which the Crown corporation refused to answer here.POKEBUSTERS In a re-play of steps by the CHUS Coalition last fall, the Saskatoon Pokebusters have asked the Atomic Energy Control Board in Ottawa for plans for the 10-megawatt Slowpoke.The plans still do not exist, Vandermeulen said.The University of Saskatchewan already has a much smaller 20-kilowatt experimental Slowpoke but Vandermeulen claims the commercial unit AECL plans is different.He said the new unit would have a “critical mass of enriched uranium” and does not include safety components found in the “mini university” model.That’s why the CHUS Coalition insisted on calling the Slowpoke a mega-Slowpoke, he said.combined The proven 20-kw model “is not an environmental or heath risk,” Vandermeulen said.Vandermeulen said the AECL people in Saskatoon are the same “sales team" that came to Sherbrooke.SAME SAME SAME “They were the same salesmen, with the same literature and the same sales pitch," he said, adding that the team is applying the same subtle pressure, telling the university the free nuke is “a one-time offer" and not to expect another chance.“There's a lot of marketing going on,” Vandermeulen said."If you’re the buyer of the project you have to really be aware of the hard sell.” “The snake oil salesmen of old have left town and moved on to Saskatoon,” he commented.Vandermeulen described Saskatoon as a sort of twin city for Sherbrooke — because of its status as cultural centre for an agricultural region, and a similar situation with AECL.“Saskatoon is the only other city where AECL has proposed a Slowpoke and the board of directors of an important institution accepted it,” Vandemeulen said.TO SHOW WORLD AECL wants a home for its reactor, to be used as a world demonstration centre for AECL to sell Slowpokes to such countries as Hungary, China and Korea for use as central heating plants.“The director very cleverly announced it after the students left in May," Vandermeulen said.And he claimed the chairman of the University of Saskatchewan board is also president of a large uranium company.The Saskatchewan proposal is more difficult to fight that the Sherbrooke one because that province has uranium mining and the nuclear industry is more entrenched there, he said.“It must seem a safe bet because of the powerful uranium industry there.” AECL has started feasibility studies on the Saskatoon plan and will consider the environment later, Vandermeulen said.“This is kind of the reverse of the way people who are concerned about the project would like it,” he said, adding that he considers it a conflict of interest that AECL conducts the studies for its own projects.But Vandermeulen is confident that with enough public support the prairie Pokebusters will be able to nuke the nuke plan.“If a public consensus emerges it will be an even sweeter victory because of the odds.” 1 Local environmentalists have been helping their Saskatchewan counterparts against a reactor plan similar to one rejected here, says activist Tom Vandermeulen.Legal aid loses two as Cowansville lawyers form new firm By John McCaghey COWANSVILLE — Claude Ha-mann and Margaret Barrand-Allen, familiar individuals in the two courthouses of Bedford District have left legal aid practice to form their own new law firm.Hamann gained his freedom on Bastille Day, after almost 13 years with the local legal aid office.Allen completed her articling with Air Canada this spring.Allen is chronologically the senior of the two.She started Margaret Barrand-AUen: Second career bearing fruit.working as a secretary in Cowans-ville’s Sweetsburg courthouse 31 years ago, “16 and green as grass following a convent education,” she said in a recent interview.Even former premier Jean-Jacques Bertrand, then practising law in Cowansville, helped set her up for a couple of office pranks.SECOND CAREER Allen married and raised three sons.After the marriage broke up she moved to Superior Court in Granby in 1977, started her pre-law at the University of Montreal in 1982, entered the University of Ottawa in 1984, and graduated last year.She had hoped to article with Yves Lagacé, a former chief Crown prosecutor in Montreal, but he became a judge.Instead she got a job with legal aid in Cowansville where her baptism of fire began mainly in ‘carcéral’, or prison law.Allen’s name became prominent last September when she argued a habeas corpus case in Superior Court on behalf of Cowansville Pe-nitentiary inmate Stéphane Marleau.Justice Thomas Toth agreed with her that penitentiary staff had exceeded their authority by refusing Marleau a three-day pass for evaluation for admission to a halfway house which served as a detoxication centre.The penitentiary had countered that the pass request was a ploy to allow Marleau to run away to western Canada where he planned to commit armed robberies.DID JUST THAT Indeed when Marleau was finally given his pass in October did just that.He failed to show up at the halfway house and was arrested in Ottawa to be accused of 19 armed robberies and 38 arms charges.He eventually pleaded guilty to 10 armed robberies and was handed 15 years imprisonment.Although unhappy with the Superior Court decision, one of Marleau’s penitentiary classification officers told the Record that Allen “has guts — the type of lawyer I’d like to have working for me.” An East Farnham native, she is proudest of a recent decision in Federal Court in Montreal.Judge Y von Pinard ruled that prisoners have the right to legal counsel when facing internal disciplinary boards.Allen argued that case on behalf of two inmates at the

bankruptcy, then came to the local legal aid law office where he took over the criminal case load.Hamann is married, with two daughters and one son.Of the hundreds of cases he has handled his proudest was the acquittal of Vincent “Tarzan” Scott.Scott was accused of arson in the destruction of his home immediately adjacent to the then Cowansville municipal dump.Scott looked as if he’d have almost no trouble swinging from vine to vine.One Hamann anecdote involved a heated argument with Crown attorney Henry Keyserlingk after which Hamann left court muttering to himself.‘I COULD.’ On his way to the lawyers’ office he was passing through their locker room and said “I could kill that.” A hand reached out and patted his arm.“I could show you how," a soft voice said.A woman guarded by a matron and a guard was being kept away from male prisoners while awaiting her turn in court.She was later acquitted of murder by reason of insanity.Claude was named Battonier of the Bedford Bar Association in May.But it was on a January day Claude Hamann .‘Itjust clicked.’ that he spotted a sale sign on the house that houses the new practice.“It just clicked, ifenew Margaret wanted to come back to Cowansville, it was as easy as that,” Hamann explained.Colleague Key-serlingk’s friendly suggestions that he should become a capitalist may also have helped to spur the move.The office is at 112

Bolton: Renegade landowner says he’ll ignore the rules By Gil Smith WEST BOLTON — An individual’s right to sell or develop his property without municipal approval is being put to the test by a local ratepayer.Henry Janulewicz, a building contractor who owns a 90-acre spread on Bolton Pass adjacent to Fuller Road, has decided to challenge West Bolton’s strict bylaws.“I’ve put my house up for sale, and intend to develop the rest of the property in my own way without changing the zoning from green to white, as the local council says I have to,” Janulewicz declared in a telephone interview following a recent meeting with West Bolton’s town council.“I’m applying directly to the Quebec government housing authorities, rather than going through the municipal channels.” TOUGH BYLAWS In making that move, Janulewicz becomes the first West Bolton resident to actively fight the town's tough housing and building codes, which have been in effect for more than a year.Janulewicz's first clash with municipal authority came during a lively meeting earlier this month at the town hall.He requested approval for the sale of his house and half a hectare (IH acres) of land on the front part of his property.Council turned him down."You’re trying to subdivide the half hectare of land the house stands on from the rest of the property, which you can’t do according to our municipal laws.” Councillor René Hébert told him.“The ,4 minimum requirement for subdividing is one hectare of land, or two-and-a-half acres.” “The property’s already subdivided,” Janulewicz retorted.“There are separate deeds relating to the house and that half hectare of land around it.My notary has them.” ‘YOU CAN’T’ Hébert disagreed.“Your house and the half hectare of land are part of your 90-acre lot,” he said.“There’s no separate lot number for that part of the land.It’s the same piece of property.You can’t subdivide the house and a half hectare from it.” “What about the deeds?” Janulewicz demanded.“They were probably drawn up for mortgage purposes only,” Hébert replied.“The point is, our municipal laws say you need a hectare of land to subdivide, not a half hectare.You’re below our minimum requirements.” Janulewicz said that Quebec provincial law states that a half hectare is sufficient to build on, or subdivide for building, and he was going to be governed by that in relation to the land area that’d be included in the sale of his house.The issue became even more complicated when it was discovered that the house and half hectare of land in question were located in what has been designated as a commercial zone, running along the front part of Janulewicz's property.Indeed he had been granted a permit by the municipality last March to convert the front part of his house into a 23-seat restaurant specializing in Polish food.That plan was abandoned when Janulewicz decided to sell the house.“I don’t think some of that West Bolton council know what they’re talking about,” the outspoken Ja- nulewicz said in the follow-up phone interview.“My real estate agent has been in the business for years, and he said I’m within my rights in selling the house and the half hectare that goes with it.It might be different if I were trying to build a house that didn’t previously exist, but the house is already there.” BIGGER PLAN The house and half hectare are only part of the dispute between Janulewicz and the municipality.His overall plan calls for gradually turning the whole 90-acre farm into a series of 10-acre mini-farms, each with its own separate housing unit.Before he does that, council says, he’ll have to apply to the CPTAQ (Commission de Protection des Territoires Agricoles du Québec) for permission to change the larger green-zoned part of his land to white.Janulewicz is going to defy the municipality on that, too.“It takes too long to get the required permission to change from one zone to another,” he said in the interview.“I’m going to keep the property green-zoned.I’ve applied directly to Quebec to carry out my plans for the mini-farms.” ‘I DON’T NEED.’ “I don’t need all the frustration and waiting that goes with complying with all the municipality’s rules and regulations.I’ve sent my proposal to Quebec.There’ll be a meeting eventually to decide it.” “It doesn’t need West Bolton's approval.It’d be nice to have that approval, but it’s not mandatory in my opinion.” Arguments at the council meeting were abruptly terminated by Mayor Fred Lahue, who told Janulewicz: “You’ve been told what to do, what steps to take.Do it or forget it!” Janule wicz had something to say about the mayor as well.“Fred La-hue is my neighbor,” he pointed out “Lives just across the road from me.He’s a good man, and an honest one.In some ways, I have great respect for him.” “But since he’s become mayor, he’s been different somehow.It’s as though being the mayor has affected him.He’s a lot different from what he used to be.” NUTS AND BOLTS In other matters: • The saga of Leyton Needhan, who council refused permission to expand his Mizener Road house 14 feet sideways unless he could obtain more land, so as to prevent encroaching on a neighbor and a CPR right-of-way, has ended.His efforts to buy up the additional land have failed.• Albert Lepage, the municipal roads supervisor who officially retired last year, is holding onto his old job at least until the winter sets in.His co-workers say they can still hardly keep up with him.He’s 72.• “Citizen Fred” Eichenberger, a staunch advocate of municipal by- laws when he ran for a council seat last fall, has had his house-building plans temporarily thwarted by the rules and the red tape they entail Fred wanted to build a second house for his son on his Brill Road farm.But the laws don’t appear to officially recognize him as a farmer.And the farm is in the name of his wife, Anna.The Eichenbergers will make a new application, and file a request for “alienation” which was previously lacking.• Land for the building of singlefamily dwellings is being offered for sale in the Paramount-Mason Road area.Lots are 2.5 to 4 acres.There’s room for approximately 20 units.Partners in the development are Bill Duke of W.D.Duke Associates in Cowansville, Bill Abbott, a Knowlton resident who’s connected with a car dealership in Montreal, and Jim Mason, an ex-pilot with Air Canada who lives in West Brome.HTliink of the money—< of commerce Granby jumps on casino bandwagon SHERBROOKE (RL) — Motivated by the vast sums such an enterprise would generate, the Granby Chamber of Commerce is thinking about opening a casino.But before the Chamber of Commerce pursues the idea it plans to look into certain conditions — most importantly whether the Quebec government would grant a licence for a gambling house.The Granby merchants also hope surrounding municipalities will support the casino idea.The chamber of commerce said the casino would be run by a government agency, although it could be sheltered in a privately-owned hotel.The casino would have to be well run, with admission strictly controlled, a cover charge and a dress code.The chamber announced its new interest in a press release this week, saying the casino would have a major impact on job creation, sales taxes, revenue for local hotels, restaurants and other industries — not to mention investments in the local economy.The chamber said it plans to look into both “advantages and inconveniences" of a casino before making a final decision.“It is important to underline that the chamber must familiarize its members and the population in general with the advantages of a casino, as well as the possible dangers it could represent,” vice-president Alain Brunelle said in the two-page communiqué.“Our organization believes the advantages a casino could represent far outweigh the disadvantages — which cqfi be controlled ” Original microfilmed at varying intensities because the text is printed on

JOHN McCAGHEY Diary gives personal chronicle of WW 1 By Lisa Thomson Prince Albert Herald PRINCE ALBERT, Sask.(CP) — “The zero hour was 1 a.m.The barrage was heavy on both sides, but owing to the mud and slush, the timed shrapnel did the most damage.Machine-gun fire was intense.” Those are words from Orville Palmer’s personal chronicle of the First World War.For four years Palmer kept a diary of each day’s happenings, mundane or frightening.“It was a boring war, from their standpoint,” Jim Palmer of Prince Albert, Orville Palmer’s grandson, said in an interview.“They defended their area of the trench and didn’t find out what was going on until days after it happened.” Jim Palmer found the diaries after his grandfather’s death in Edmonton in 1972.They were in a trunk with old newspapers about the war, the first landing on the moon and other historic events.‘I WAS AMAZED’ “When I read them I was amazed,” he said.“I couldn’t see myself doing that when I was 20 years old, but things were different then.” Orville Palmer served as a private with the 49th Edmonton Battalion.Most of his duty was in France.The diaries cover the period from when Palmer and his brother, Duke, first tried to enlist to Orville’s return home in 1919.The diaries mention the cold, lack of food and mail from home, harsh living conditions — rats are everywhere — and the fighting.Atone point, Duke Palmer was wounded.His brother found him on the battlefield.Later he wrote “I couldn’t stop, so we shook hands and wished each other luck.” Orville went back later to get his brother, who died in an English hospital.Palmer’s original diaries did not name places, in case he was captured, but locations such as Vimy Ridge and Ypres are common in the rewritten versions he compiled later.GAS ATTACK Palmer was involved in a chemical warfare incident in 1917.“I was taking a relief message to HQ and on the way over the Germans started to gas the area with shells,” he wrote.“Chloride, mustard and tear gas, mainly.We had to travel fast to get our breath.We had to remove our respirators a few times for enough air." Some men in Palmer’s company had blisters and burns from the gas, and he could not speak above a whisper for weeks after the attack.On Feb.9, 1916, Palmer wrote: "It is just 16 months and it seems like that many years since I came to this God forsaken country.I wonder how much longer we will have to put up with it." Palmer returned home in 1919 and married his hometown sweetheart.The diaries end with a statement written in 1936.“The reaction of the war has affected all phases of society and it seems proper adjustment is about as far off as ever.Europe again is seething with political upheavals and civil wars and world war talk, till none of us can feel comfortable again.” Winnipeg Boot Boys defy myth all skinheads are Nazis Did you know that.FIRST ROYAL Prince William became the first memberof the Royal Family to set foot on Canada when he visited the east coast of Newfoundland in June 1786.COSTLY CENT The Royal Canadian Mint estimated in 1Î35 that it cost 1.5 cents to produce a one-cent piece.HIGHEST TURNOUT The highest voter turnout for a Canadian federal election occurred on Dec.17, 1917, when 90 per cent of the electorate voted.WINNIPEG (CP) —They call themselves the Winnipeg Boot Boys, a group of about 15 skinheads who pride themselves on being tough rebels who won’t bow to society’s rules.But that, they say, docs not make them racists or neo-Nazis.“They’re very amiable,” says Mike Lambert, a concert promoter who hires skinheads to provide security at rock shows.“They defy the myth all skinheads are Nazis.” Along with their shaved heads and distinctive Doc Marten leather work boots, many of the Boot Boys also sport buttons reading "Skins hate Nazis” and ‘‘Skinheads against racism.” Skinheads increasingly have become identified with the neo-Nazi movement in the United States, Europe and Canada.About 90 skinheads attended a Canada Day weekend rally in Minden, Ont.organized by former Canadian Nazi Party leader John Beattie.They’ve also been accused of racially motivated beatings and distributing neo-Nazi hate literature.But Winnipeg skinheads, who range from the mid-teens to early 20s, say there is nothing in the genuine skinhead movement which promotes racism.“It’s doing things my way,” one skinhead named Dean said of his creed."It’s just saying ‘no’ to the stupid restrictions society puts on you.It’s rejecting society’s rules, the obsession of pornography, drugs, prejudice, materialism.” Skinheads say they don’t use drugs, including alcohol.Although people have complained about the skinheads' intimidating appearance, Winnipeg police say there have been no problems with the groups.“You have to admit, when you see them walking on the street, they do look a bit scary,” said Timothy Robins, whose 6-year-old son Jason is a skinhead.“But they’re good kids.” Jason says people who take time to talk to skinheads soon realize they are "not that bad.” “Everyone says, ‘I thought you’d be real mean and, hey, you’re just like a smurf.’” Few would liken skinheads to an innocuous cartoon character.In Minneapolis, where 200 skin- heads attended a conference in January called Skinheads Against Racial Prejudice, there have been fights between racist and anti-racist skinheads."I classify the anti-racists no differently than the neo-Nazis,” said Mike Schoeben, a police specialist on gang crime.“If you use violence, it’s a concern.” Violence has been associated with skinheads wherever they have appeared.Six skinheads were arrested after they allegedly attacked two young couples in Vancouver last month.A group of them clashed with some Ma-rxist-Leninists during a May Day celebration in Hamilton, and skinheads in Toronto were blamed for the beating of an 82-year-old woman.Letters What about others?Editor: A little note of interest to Mr.John Davidson’s letter about Quebec’s Van Doo Regiment and its 75th

wants to save St-Lawrence’s dying belugas By Peter Lowrey TADOUSSAC, Que.(CP) — Biologist Pierre Beland, who runs an adoption agency for endangered beluga whales, may be one of the few PhD holders ever to have collected a welfare cheque.The pixie-faced Beland, 41, had returned to Quebec broke from postgraduate studies in Australia in the mid-1970s.“The guy filling in the form got madder and madder as he filled in my educational background,” recalled a bemused Beland as he pulled on a beer in a harborfront café in this picturesque tourist village 200 kilometres northeast of Quebec City.His three months on welfare, which ended when he got a contract with an Ottawa museum, are now a dim memory for the Quebec City native.He has also put a career as a government scientist behind him.His goal now is to save the dying beluga whales of the St.Lawrence River and turn them into a powerful symbol of an ailing planet.For Beland, the belugas are a living litmus paper — proof that the river, which drains the Great Lakes and their pollution.is an open sewer despite attempts to clean it up.Beland.an expert on how the pollution is affecting marine mammals, especially the belugas, has shared his expertise with U.S.congressional committees and is regularly called | for comment by the media both in Ca- nada and in the United States.His two-year-old research institute, the St.Lawrence National Institute of Ecotoxicology, is well on its way to having a $1 million annual budget.It is funded by government, public donations and profits from research commissioned by firms like Hydro-Quebec when they lay underwater cables.ADOPT BELUGAS His brainwave to get people to adopt belugas — identifiable from their markings — has raised $250,000 over the past eight months.Prince Andrew and Sarah, the Duke and Duchess of York, adopted a beluga during their visit earlier this month to Quebec.An adoption costs $5,000, and the adoptive parents get regular reports from Beland on their charges.The whale sponsors include corporations, institutions such as schools and individuals.Beland says he’s not getting rich but he wields a lot more influence than he did as a well-paid government bureaucrat.“You can have a scientist making $65,000 a year and no one will listen to him.” he said.“But a Greenpeacer making $10,000 a year from bits and pieces says something and the minister acts.” Beland was earning $65,000 a year at Fisheries and Oceans Canada when he began discovering ulcers and lesions in beluga corpses and warned that the population of four-metre-long white whales was in danger.When his colleagues discounted his research, he “got mad and quit.” Now, he’s making $10,000 a year and driving a faded 10-year-old green Volvo .but with a quantum leap in clout.“It hasn’t been difficult,” he said of his fall from the upper middle class.MAKES LESS “The taxman took $32,000 a year in taxes before.Now my salary is tax free, ’ ’ he said.He now wears the same thing every day—jeans and T-shirt — and lives in a smaller house.He shares his home in Rimouski, a college town downstream from Ta-doussac on the south shore of the St.Lawrence River, with his girlfriend and seven-year-old daughter and plays goalie on a local ice hockey team to keep fit.On a recent brilliantly sunny morning, Beland stood with binoculars around his neck on the new $130,000 modified Icelandic fishing boat his institute bought with some of the adopt-a-beluga proceeds.Twenty-five kilometres wide here and more of an ocean than a river, the St.Lawrence is home to several species of whale — blue, minke, fin and humpback — which summer here.Only the belugas stay year round After an hour’s search, Daniel Lefebvre, the skipper, calls out “Beluga, one thirty," meaning the mammals are visible to the right Slowing the boat, Lefebvre snaps pictures as they surface in pairs.Using the photos, he will try to identify the whales, and reports will be sent to their adoptive parents.FULL OF POISON ‘ ‘ What we know about the belugas is this: they are loaded with contaminants,” Beland said, listing pesticides, PCBs, petroleum and heavy metals.“Among the females found dead there are very few who are pregnant,” Beland said.‘‘Perhaps they’re not reproducing as they should.” The population of St.Lawrence belugas has shrunk to around 500 from 5,000 a century ago.Eleven have been found dead on the shore this year.Beland suspects the whales are not reproducing normally since only 30 per cent of the population appear to be juveniles compared to 40 per cent among Arctic belugas.Creating pressure on governments for anti-pollution measures is the only way to save them, he says.He appears to be having some impact.At a recent Great Lakes Advisory Board meeting, Beland was approached by a New York state environment department official.“He said ‘I know who you are and I hate you’," Beland said, with a boyish smile.“He said he’d received so many letters about the belugas and it was all my fault.” v r History Thr RK( OKU Friday, July 28.lS»»-5 flr^rrr^l Hocara The long road from India to Scotstown Rev.E.M.W.Templeman, Anglican missionary to the Townships In 1906, at the age of 45, the Rev.E.M.W.Templeman gave up vicarage teas and garden fetes at a comfortable English parish to travel across the sea as a missionary to Quebec.He served first at St.Matthew’s in Quebec City, then Bourg-Louis and Lévis, spent seven years on the isolated Magdalen Islands and the next eighteen years in the Eastern Townships.But he was born half a world away in the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains just west of Nepal.His father, Rev.Edward Templeman, was a chaplain in Her Majesty’s Indian Service who’d volunteered for India in the wake of the Sepoy Mutiny which erupted the year he was ordained, 1857.Sepoys were native troops in the East India Company’s private army.By 1857, there were over 440 British missionaries established in India and the sepoys began to fear they were to be converted to Christianity.When cartridges for the new Enfield rifles that they were expected to bite open were rumored to be greased with pig and cow fat, both Hindus and Moslems rebelled.Cows were sacred to Hindus, pork forbidden to Moslems and they rose up, captured Delhi and slew every Christian they could find — men, women and children.Next they besieged Cawnpore and when the garrison surrendered on condition of safe passage in boats down the Ganges, they fired on the fleeing families from ambush and slaughtered 900.Rev.Edward Templeman, in a poem published first at Bombay and then in an 1891 collection entitled simply Poems; Narrative and .Descriptive, brooded on the massacre and wrote; “My heart was aching, saddened by the tales Of war and tumult which from India came In those dark days when Britain’s sons were slain, And wives and daughters died heroic deaths.” TROOPS Troops bound for China under Lord Elgin, recently Canada’s governor general, were diverted to suppress the mutiny and Rev.Templeman went out as a chaplain.As late as May, 1859, 50,000 rebels still held out along the borders of Nepal and it took a good five years to pacify north India completely.The chaplain was stationed first at Shahjahanapur where the church had been built in 1854, then in Bareilly just east of Delhi.To escape the unaccustomed and oppressive heat of summer, it was usual for English families to vacate the plains for the Himalayan foothills.It was there at Almora on October 22, 1861, that Evered Marsh Wigram Templeman was born.His names commemorated family members back home in England but his first memories were all of India, the Himalayas, villages and railways.By 1863, his father had been transferred to Darjeeling, still in the foothills but ; at the other end of Nepal north of Calcutta.TO ENGLAND -ir He had two sisters and his brother Burnard Wordsworth (again named for family with a nod toward verse) was born in 1867.Then the family took the four month voyage around the Cape of Good Hope back to England.The Rev.Edward Templeman settled down as rector of Higham Ferrers in Northampton and E.M.W.was sent to school.He was, however, no scholar, and took a job at the age of 16 with an import-export firm in Birmingham.Family tradition says he did a good deal of travelling as a buyer for this firm in both Europe and South America but the only thing known for certain is that in 1886 and 1887 he was in St.John's, Newfoundland.But business was not his calling.He had uncles and cousins in the ministry as well as his father and blood would not be denied.He entered Lichfield Theological College north of Birmingham in 1887 when he was 26 and the following year was made deacon of Much Hadham church in Hertfordshire, 25 miles north of London.MUCH HADHAM Much Hadham's parish church dates at least to the 13th Century with a Norman church on the site before that and a Saxon one there even earlier.E.M.W.began keeping a scrapbook on the history of Much Hadham and the significant events of his own life there.Among the very first clippings pasted in this book are some concerning the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts.His father, then rector of Pitch-cott, was very active in the SPG and often gave talks of its work in India.“The missionaries,” he told his audiences, “were a grand and noble set of self-denying men.” Besides working to convert the heathen, the SPG also served the ‘Colonies’ — they sent the first Anglican priest to the Townships in 1798, sent the Rev.Charles James Stewart in 1807, the Rev.Clement Fall Lefebvre, Sherbrooke’s first Anglican, in 1822 and many, many others.On at least one occasion, E.M.W.heard missionaries from the wilds of Canada speak of their adventures and he became more interested than ever in the work.CONNECTIONS Although he had no degree and was still no scholar, connections won him appointment as Assistant Chaplain and Secretary of St.Aidan’s College.Birkenhead (near Liverpool) and he was there three years.His younger brother, Burnard Wordsworth, was ordained in 1892 and served at Whittington More and Callow.E.M.W.became senior curate of All Saints Church in Chesterfield and looked after the little mission at Callow with his brother.After his father died in 1896, E.M.W.accepted the living of the parish of Brimington, just outside Chesterfield.He could have settled down in relative ease and comfort there but still he dreamed of foreign parts and collected clippings from the SPG.Bernard Epps Brother Burnard returned to India around 1989 and died among the heathen in Bengal the following year at the age of 33.CANADA EMW had always been something of a slow starter and it was a few years more before he left the comforts of Brimington for the wilds of Canada — first St.Matthew’s, then Bourg-Louis, and across the river to Lévis.In 1912, he was transferred to the Magdalen Islands and described his experiences in the Quebec Diocesan Gazette the following year; ‘“Nearly five hundred souls and no one to minister to them,’ was an appeal to which I could but reply, ‘Here I am ; send me.’ It was in this way that our Bishop put it to me, ‘to save the Diocese from the disgrace of not having a man to send to the Magdalen Islands.’” 16 SANDSPITS In 1912, those 16 windswept sand-spits in the middle of the Gulf of St.Lawrence were terribly remote.Jacques Cartier had discovered them as early as 1534 and they were named for the wife of their first seigneur.King George III gave them to Captain Isaac Coffin and he taxed the inhabitants so severely that most fled to Quebec’s North Shore and it was only in 1895 that the islanders were allowed to buy back their islands and returned in force.St.Luke’s Church on Grindstone was built in 1905 and it took several days for the new minister to reach it by train and steamship.‘The Retreat’ in Scotstown.“A bright and happy Christmas opened my work, and then winter set in, the latter so different to the pretty well usual snow and cold of Quebec.Here continual winds prevailing in the N.W.making it bitterly keen, and blowing away all the snow, followed by rain and sleet leaving the roads and fields a sheet of glare ice, dangerous for walking and most difficult for sleighing, the force of the wind swaying the sleigh to a perilous angle until one learns to manipulate deftly the cutter’ affixed to every vehicle, a very necessary appendage." ‘NEVER SET OUT.’ Ice was always smoother than land so streams and ponds and inland bays were used wherever possible — with consequent dangers; “‘Never set out on a journey without an axe’ seemed to me rather a needless provision, until coming home from another such trip; for, without any warning whatever, where the ice seemed good and strong, my horse went through and the sleigh was shipping water.Fortunately we were near the shore, and there was an axe to cut the way to it.This is one of the little regrettable incidents which frequently occur to the Island Missionary from without.ENTRY ISLAND “Entry Island is a settlement of all English-speaking people who have their little church and school.During the winter, this little colony is entirely shut off, even from its neighboring islands, yet these people seem quite content with their lonely lot except when sickness befalls them; then their inability to get either priest or physician is indeed a great hardship.“One afternoon in March, a sturdy Entry Islander made his way across the ice floes in a small flat’ and presented himself at my Parsonage with a request that I should accompany him back to perform his Marriage Ceremony.Whilst admiring his gallantry and pluck, being in the Lenten season, I had to inform him that it was not possible until after Easter.But I promised to go on Easter Tuesday if he would come and fetch me.WHALE BOAT “He kept his promise and I kept mine.In a Whale Boat, not too water tight, we set out on our run across, soon to be adrift amid the ice floes until at last it was necessary to get out and jump from floe to floe until the shore was reached, pulling the boat after us, certainly a novel experience and not altogether comfortable.“But the excitement came on the return journey.One of the sudden changes of the wind and weather, so frequent on these Islands, came upon us and amidst mist and snow and wind the gasoline motor broke down, refusing all encouragement to turn another stroke; with neither mast nor sail, the weather thick and no land in sight, six miles from anywhere, our position was not enviable.“But as necessity is the mother of invention, so that excellent quality stood us in good stead.With an old canvas cover rigged upon an oar and hoisted as a jury mast, rowing against a heavy

far cry from the comfortable rectory at Brimington and the sort of adventures he had always dreamed of.They must have inspired and rejuvenated him because — although his characteristic modesty prevented his mentioning it in the Gazette — he married his housekeeper on Grindstone when he was already in his fifties and she thirty years youn ger.He began at once fathering hostages to fortune —- Burnard first (named for the brother who’d died in Bengal), seven altogether, the last when he was 68.(One small son drowned in Lake Megantic at the age of five in 1922.The others are still living.) After seven years on the Islands, E.M.W.and his growing family came to the Townships and a three-point mission at Kingsey and Denison Mills.In 1920, he moved to Scotstown where a rectory was built for him beside St.Albans Church and served the three-point mission of Scotstown, Gould and Canterbury.‘ENGLISH SQUIRE’ Older parishioners remember him still as a big man, very popu- lar, “a typical English squire.” They remember him in bitter winter weather wrapped in his muskrat coat, harnessing ‘Dick’ to the sleigh, loading the children aboard and wrapping them up in Buffalo robes for the long ride through the woods to Gould, then an even colder one to Canterbury with the roads often drifted deep with snow They would often pause for lunch under the old covered bridge at Baw-Baw Brook.The contrast between these little white-painted wooden churches and the ancient mossed stones of Much Hadham and Brimington must have been impressive.Christ Church at Canterbury stiU stands as he knew it with gothic arches and flying buttresses in ambitious imitation of Canterbury Cathedral.Gould’s church is gone now but St.Alban's celebrated its centennial last year.In 1929, E.M.W.moved to Marb-leton for a year and the little church begun by Rev.Thomas Shaw Chapman, one of the first graduates of Bishop’s College.Then he retired at 69 to a home built for him halfway up Coleman Hill in Scotstown that he called The Retreat’.It still stands.He died there — fittingly—on All Saints Day, 1937, and lies at peace in Bown Cemetery.Brimington Church, near Chesterfield, England. «—me KKCUKD—Krtday, July 28, 198» Farm and Business ffecora Unhappy taxpayers can file notice of objection By this time of year, most Quebec residents have received their federal and provincial notices of assessment following the filing of their income tax returns.Because our tax system is a self-assessment system, every person must declare his income from all sources and file a tax return with the tax authorities no later than April 30 of each year for his income of the preceding year.Any balance of tax appearing on the tax return must be paid at that time, because interest accumulates starting on that date and is compounded daily.After reviewing each individual’s income tax return with due care, the departments issue what is called a notice of assessment.The notice of assessment is a document which determines the income tax payable plus interest and penalties, or the refund to which the taxpayer is entitled.Assuming that the notice of assessment corresponds to the taxpayer’s income tax return, and that the taxpayer is satisfied, the process ends here unless, obviously, where there is a subsequent audit by the tax authorities.However, the taxpayer may disagree with the notice of assessment and wish to provide certain explanations to clarify the situation.The dissatisfied taxpayer has some recourse, including the filing of a notice of objection.The notice of objection must be mailed by registered or certified mail within 90 days from the date of mailing of the notice of assessment, failing which the taxpayer loses all recourse.At the provincial level, if Revenu Québec does not follow up on the taxpayer’s notice of objection within 180 days following the date of its mailing, the taxpayer may take his case to the Provincial Court.However, if Revenu Québec follows up on the notice of objection but the taxpayer remains dissatisfied with its decision, the taxpayer may take his case to the Provincial Court, but this time Tax talks within 90 days following the date of the Department’s decision.At the federal level, an objection may be made in one of two ways: a) The taxpayer may produce a notice of objection in which he explains his reasons for dissatisfaction and await Revenue Canada’s reply; or b) The taxpayer may send his notice of objection to Revenue Canada and state that he wishes to submit his case to the Tax Court of Canada or the Federal Court of Canada, or the Federal Court of Canada, Trial Division, immediately.At the provincial level, a taxpayer must pay the income taxes, interest and penalties appearing on the notice of assessment within 30 days following the date of mailing of the notice of assessment, even if he intends to appeal the Department’s assessment.If the payments are not made, the taxpayer is subject to collection procedures.At the federal level, where the taxpayer files a notice of objection or contests the Department’s decision before the tax courts, the payment of income taxes, interest and penalties may be postponed until the date of settlement or the decision of the competent tribunal.However, this does not stop interest from accruing on any income taxes owing to Revenue Canada.In closing, if a taxpayer intends to submit a case to the courts that is in contradiction to the position of the Departments, he would be well advised to consult his tax advisors.John Pankert, C.A.Tax Department

of U.S.subsidies By Brenda Dalglish TORONTO (CP) - The “myth” that U.S.industries are not subsidized must be debunked if Canada is to make the most of the free-trade agreement, says a report released Thursday by the C.D.Howe Institute.The study, written by economists Alan Rugman and Andrew Anderson, says Americans must be educated about the extent of the incentives that are given to their industries and the issue must be made a political one.“In general, there is little recognition in the United States of the extent to which U.S.industry is subsidized through defence contracts, selective government procurement and state development aid,’’ said the economists.“Even U.S.agriculture, which is heavily subsidized, has rarely faced external discipline, since U.S.trade laws, like most domestic trade-law systems, investigate only foreign subsidies, never those given to domestic producers.” FARMERS GET HELP In the southern United States, for example, farmers benefit from extensive irrigation systems that are TORONTO (CP)—Louis Lacroix has one of the most demanding jobs in Canadian labor — leading the Teamsters, a union that still believes Jimmy Hoff a was a great guy and whose officials sometimes appear to have stepped out of a James Cagney movie.Mainstream labor leaders are hoping Lacroix can inject democracy into his 95,000-member union and guide the black sheep of the labor movement back into the fold.Teamsters insiders want the French-bom Montrealer to keep peace with the U.S.parent union, despite its resistance to reform and association with organized crime figures.Keeping everyone happy requires the skills of a tightrope walker.One year after being appointed director of the Canadian Conference of Teamsters by U.S.union chiefs, Lacroix is still being given the benefit of the doubt.“His organizing has been tremendous,” said Shirley Carr, president of the Canadian Labor Congress, which expelled the Teamsters in I960 for raiding other unions’ members."I think what he’s doing to make sure his union has credibility is the provided by state and local governments and for which farmers are not charged full costs, Anderson said in a telephone interview Thursday.The federal government provides subsidies to build steel industry infrastructure using the argument that steel production is needed for national security reasons — even though much of the output from the plants goes for other purposes, he said.Canada must collect detailed information on all subsidies like that in the United States if it is to negotiate the new Canada-U.S.subsidies code called for in the free-trade agreement, the report says.The negotiations on the new subsidies code will allow the U.S.to examine Canadian subsidies and vice versa.“It will, however, be more difficult to assess U.S.subsidies, as many of them are indirect or hidden by the U.S.political system,” the report said.FOCUSES ON FEDS So far, the little Canadian research that has been done on U.S.subsidies has focused on federal subsidies.That must change because state only way it can be done.” Lacroix, 49, recently gave his first report to the 143 Canadian delegates and assortment of top U.S.officials gathered at the fifth Canadian convention in Montreal.He won standing ovations for his promise to combine change with loyalty.The changes Lacroix supports are gradual.And they aren’t being presented as a way of cleaning up the union, although they might have that effect.Lacroix wants more central coordination of organizing drives and pension funds.He says centralization will boost efficiency and could reduce the potential for sweetheart deals — private pacts struck by local union bosses with employers at the expense of members.Nobody seems to know just how progressive Lacroix is.He talks about a need for openness but would not let reporters listen to the delegates debate.He has also refused to disclose his salary.The only salary indication is the comment by Senator Ed Lawson, Lacroix’s deposed predecessor, that he lost about $150,000 yearly when he was dumped as director.Other top labor leaders in Canada and municipal subsidy programs are even more prevalent in the United States than in Canada, Anderson said.The government must immediately commission research on such U.S.subsidies and should seek information from Canadian exporters about what U.S.practices they consider most troublesome, he said.If this is not done the United States will be much better prepared to negotiate on what it considers unfair Canadian subsidy practices, which have already been widely studied by the International Trade Commission and the U.S.Department of Commerce during their investigations of numerous countervail and antidumping actions brought against Canadian companies.Canada has brought far fewer actions and carried out little research of U.S.subsidies, the report says.In the latest trade action by Washington, U.S.authorities said Thursday that Canadian steel mills that produce rails for railways and transit systems are selling their products too cheaply in the United States.The ruling earn about $70,000.ENDS JET SERVICE Lacroix’s big public relations coup was to get rid of Lawson’s private plane immediately after he became director.The move established him as a no-frills leader, despite his manicured hands and monogrammed cuffs.Outside the Teamsters, the reaction to Lacroix is hope mixed with skepticism.“Our union has seen no change in the Teamsters,” said James Hunter, president of the Canadian Brotherhood of Railway, Transport and General Workers.“They have continued to raid us .” Lacroix was not always a Teamster.When he got a job packing boxes at Labatt Breweries in Montreal in 1962, he belonged to the International Union of United Brewery, Soft Drinks, Flour, Cereals and Distilleries Workers of America.By 1974, when his local decided to merge with the Teamsters, Lacroix was local president.Although Lacroix’s future as Canadian director is bound to be full of tradeoffs, the first hurdle is passed — the convention ended with union members and spectators still content with his leadership.boosted an already stiff tentative duty on the rails.The U.S.Commerce Department has said the steel rails benefited from government subsidies and were being sold on the U.S.market at less than cost.Ice cream, dairy stuff costs rise OTTAWA (CP) — Prices for ice cream, yogurt and other dairy products will likely rise next month as farmers get a pay raise.Agriculture Minister Don Ma-zankowski announced Thursday that the target price for industrial milk will increase to $47.45 for 100 litres on Tuesday from $47.06.The target price is a suggested price at which dairies buy milk from farmers.Industrial milk is used to manufacture dairy products.Prices to farmers for milk that consumers buy is regulated by provincial governments.Table and industrial milk are usually of the same quality.The 39-cent-a-hectolitre increase is the first for dairy producers since February 1988.Industrial milk prices have risen by only 2i per cent in the last three years.Support prices for butter will increase by 1.3 per cent to $5.167 a kilogram and for skim milk powder by 1.1 per cent to $3.046 a kilogram.The new prices reflect higher producer costs and will also increase revenues for processors, Mazankowski said in a news release.Mazankowski also said a committee has been struck —- with representatives from Ottawa, the Canadian Dairy Commission, the Dairy Farmers of Canada, the National Dairy Council and the Consumers Association of Canada — to advise him on dairy matters and plan long-term policy.Mazankowski wants the panel to report by the end of January 1990 on alternative price-setting mechanisms to best balance the interests of producers, processors and consumers.Through the committee, under the chairmanship of Ken McKinnon of the dairy commission, farmers will be given a greater opportunity to participate in planning policy that directly affects them, the Agriculture Department said.He won’t disclose his salary Lacroix leads labor’s bad boy union ‘Pieces of native silver as big as stove lids or cannonballs’ Last of Cobalt’s illustrious silver mines set to close By Laura Eggertson COBALT, Ont.(CP) — The rumble of stamp mills crushing ore, the pop-pop-pop of the exhaust from compressed-air pipes and the high-pitched whistles calling miners to work — that was music in Cobalt.It still echoes in the ears of Arnold Todd and Jim Armstrong, who grew up roaming the so-called silver sidewalks of the Northern Ontario mining town near the Quebec border.But the hum and the rumble have long since faded.And this summer Agnico-Eagle's silver mill will close because of low ore prices, laying off the final 24 of more than 100 workers.Then the last links to the area’s glory days at the beginning of the century will all but vanish.STRIPPED HILLS On the west side of calm Cobalt Lake, the town is perched on bedrock hills that years of mining have ruthlessly stripped of most vegetation.Head frames marking the entrance to abandoned shafts rust and rot.“Originally here in Cobalt there were 100 mines, and 25 per cent of them had big mills,” recalls Todd, 74, whose gravelly voice somehow brings to mind the operation of the mill works.“The original stamp mills had iron-footed rods that lifted up and let drop on the ore.You could hear that sound day and night.” The commotion began in 1903.James McKinley and Earnest Dar-ragh, cutting timbers for the Te-miscaming and Northern Ontario Railway, discovered “pieces of native silver as big as stove lids or cannonballs lying on the ground,” they wrote.Mines — including the one opened by McKinley and Darragh — were soon developed and the town crowded around, so the men didn't have to walk far in —40 C weather.Streetcars took workers to more distant shafts.Since then.Cobalt has been cursed by fires, typhoid outbreaks, smallpox and flu epidemics, and a dynamite explosion that destroyed much of the town.But it’s the fall of silver prices, currently at a low $5 US an ounce, that has reduced a once-busy town of 15,000 to a quiet remnant of 1,500.For about a year now, Agnico-Eagle’s mill has been the only operation left.‘‘Cobalt boomed pretty well right through to 1921,” when silver dropped to 25 cents an ounce, says Armstrong, 74, a consulting engineer whose father was the town dentist.“It was quite a sight to see the bricks down at the railway station, all piled up.” Bricks of silver, that is — 66 pounds (30 kilograms) each, stacked like cordwood.“We used to take our pocket knives and scrape little bits off the bar,” says Todd with a chuckle.PERFORMERS CAME At the railway station, everyone greeted the 10:30 a.m.and 7 p.m.trains travelling to and from Toronto.They carried American and Bri- MONTREAL (CP) — Bell Canada asked the Federal Court of Appeal on Thursday to set aside a Canadian Human Rights Commission decision to investigate alleged discriminatory employment practices by the communications giant.Bell said in its request that the commission “breached the rules of natural justice” by

extend a year-long limit for bringing a complaint of discrimination.tish investors, stockbrokers and speculators, vaudeville entertainers come to perform at the opera house, politicians and royalty.They even carried Cobalt, the English bulldog who roamed the mining camps.When he got bored, the dog hopped the rails for a stay at Toronto’s King Edward HoteL Owned by a lawyer in town, the bulldog was so beloved that when he was injured and finally died after a fight — at an elderly 16 — hourly bulletins were posted on his condition.Or so the story goes.‘‘There are a lot of stories around.Most of them are true,” says Todd, who followed his father into the business of insuring mines.“It was THE town of the province in those days.” NO SALOONS The high wooden sidewalks were crowded with men in top hats and caps, women in bustles and bonnets and kids like Armstrong, his dog at his heels, and Todd, selling newspapers on the street.Of course, the temperance movement kept the saloons out and the rowdiness down — but a prescription at the drugstore or a visit The human rights commission announced last week that it would appoint an investigator to look into Bell, a federally regulated private company, and the Crown-owned CBC.Employment equity reports submitted to the federal government by the two indicated that women, natives and visible minorities may have not been

except during the summer tourist season when the traffic picks up.The theatre has been empty for 15 years and some stores are boarded up.TOURISM HOPES Larry Francis, the tall, stooped director of the mining museum, is heading a drive to turn Cobalt into a tourist town.He has already laid out a heritage trail through abandoned mine sites.It probably won’t happen fast enough to stop the trickle of families leaving — especially the young people.But the vigorous oldtimers haven’t given up on the town.“I’m going to continue to operate,” Armstrong says.“I’ve found 17 new silver deposits and I hope I can find a few more before I pass away.” Adds Todd: “We’re fine here.It’ll be a quiet town.” ports detailing how many women, natives, visible minorities and disabled people they employ.Rod Doney, spokesman for Bell, said in an interview that the telephone company has “been in the forefront” in seeking to establish fair employment practices for its 55,000 employees.The commission said that Bell and the CBC had refused to cooperate in a voluntary review of their employment practices.But Doney said that Bell only wanted to “ensure that we were protecting the confidentiality of our employees.”

days.My only answer is to ask people ,‘.how they feel in their gut when they , hear all the news about the environment.It is our guts that give us important information about how we are being affected by the envi-1; ronmental crisis our world is fa-.cing.It is for our own guts, our own bodies, our own health that we .need to go to workshops and find .out what actions and changes we l can make.The environmental crisis is our personal crisis because whether we let our minds know it or not, we are very scared and fearful about our future when we hear the facts : “a species becomes extinct about every nine hours and in ten years it may be every twenty minutes; in the last 30 years 40% of the world’s ÎR By Rosemary Suliivjp rainforests have been lost and every minute an area of tropical forests larger than 20 football fields in destroyed by logging, burning, agricultural clearance or industrial development ; every year a forest bigger than Costa Rica (11 million hectares) is eradicated; these forests contain over 50% of world’s plants and wildlife; worldwide about 26 billion tons of topsoil are washed or blown off cropland each year; every year 6 million hectares of productive dryland becomes desert; last year the United States didn’t produce as much food as its population consumed for the first time in its history; it’s unsafe to be out in the sun anymore without protection for our eyes and skin because the ozone layer is thinning due to our use of aerosol cans and refrigerators; the past four summers have been the hottest on record because of the increasing carbon dioxide and other pollution from coal burning and industrial processes in our atmosphere, the ‘greenhouse effect’; maple syrup may become a thing of the past, something to tell our grandchildren about because of acid rain; our waters are becoming more and more polluted so that we can’t swim in them and soon drinking water may be li-fethreatening; our food is being sprayed with poisons so more food can be produced per acre of land without pest damage and we are eating this poison because it can’t be washed out of vegetables and fruit; and then there are the half a million scientists around the world who are working on developing armaments to kill people instead of working on solutions to this crisis ; the total sum that the United Nations estimates is needed for tropical reforestation and conservation is equal to half a day’s world military arms expenditure; implementing the world plan to combat deserts would take two day’s expenditure on arms; a ten-year international plan to supply clean water in the developing world would have taken just 10 days of military expenditure”.These are some of the reasons why each one of us needs to find something to do, go to a workshop, join a conservation or ecology action group, meet other people who can support us as we make changes in our own lifestyles.It is by not doing anything that we are allowing this world crisis to effect our own personal life, our mental peace of mind and stress related illnesses in our bodies.When we take actions however small and began developing a network of supportive caring people, we are stopping the destruction by not letting it eat away at our insides and we become part of finding the solutions.So consider joining the caring people who will come together here in

for your home is often a tricky and time-consuming task.You want to ensure that the paint colors — for both the interior and exterior — co-ordinate with your decor and are estheti-cally pleasing.But that can be difficult, especially if you have to bring home paint-chips from paint and decorating stores.Color Your World Corp., a chain of paint and wallpaper stores, has an answer for custo mers who wished they could take their homes to the stores.Since June, the company has been offering an in-store computerized decorating service.“For the first time, Canadians doing their own decorating can co-ordinate paint colors with the color schemeof their homes, both inside and out, and see the results of their choice on a high-resolution television monitor before applying a drop of paint,” says Stan Newman, president of Color Your World.PLAY OPTIONS Whether starting from scratch or redecorating to enhance existing furniture and rugs, the system allows consumers to play with color options on the computer screen.With the help of consultants, customers select a room design that best reflects their layout, choose the colors they want and then, on the computer screen, “paint” the walls in a variety of shades.The same principle applies for exterior painting, whether it’s to match brickwork, decking or interlocking brick pathways.The Color Magic service is available free and by appointment in more than 100 of the chain's 250 stores across Canada.You don’t have to buy anything from a Color Your World store to use the service.The computer system was designed by Duha Color Services, a Winnipeg company that makes paint chips and does other work for Color Your World.Rick Duha says his company spent more than two years developing the software program, consulting with color and computer experts from around the world.Nancy Douglas, fashion merchandise manager for Color Your World, says the company is already working on expanding the service to include wallpaper and flooring.Douglas says almost 80 per cent of Canadian homes are decorated in white or off-white because the colors are neutral and will co-ordinate with most room furnishings.Gays marry hoping to come

Vogueing — the ‘in’ way to dance TORONTO (CP) — Imagine if group of boys jumped onto a modelling runway and started imitating the models.That would be wild, and that would be Vogueing — a new dance recently arrived in Toronto from New York City.Vogueing is being compared with break-dancing, the spinning floor dance started by ghetto kids in the United States in the early 1980s.Around for years in gay clubs, Vogueing has become part of the straight world.Voguers strike a series of highly stylized poses reminiscent of 1950s Vogue magazine models.Their arms are outstretched, their mouths pouting, their stances exaggerated.But instead of a leisurely stroll down the fashion house runway, it’s done at a frenetic pace to booming music in a crowded nightclub.And it’s done competitively, with the Voguers divided into chic gangs they call “houses” — a parody of the way fashion designers name their companies the House of Chanel, or the House of Dior.At some nightclubs, Voguers compete for prizes trying to outdo each other, or, as they say, “throw some shade” on their opponents.While there may have been individual Voguers in Toronto before, the first house was formed recently when local designers Dean and Dan Caten decided to show off their new fall line of evening wear in a Vogue-off against New York’s House of Magnifique.“When we heard of this Vogueing thing, we thought there was a need for a Toronto house,” Dean Caten said.“It’s growing and spreading.” Last week, the Magnifiques took the stage first.SrCZ_ -oq A PUMP ’N POUR JUG FREE Exclusive pump ’n pour jug free when you buy HTH Dry Chlorine in the 45.4 kg, 40.0 kg, 34.1 kg or two 22.7 kg size.While supplies last.(Suggested Value $19.95) OUR SPECIALTY GUNITE SWIMMING POOLS' ISBIHS CANADIAN MONEY AT PAR ON OUR ENTIRE BICYCLE DEPT.THE CYCLERY AT THE GREAT OUTDOORS TRADING CO.ANNOUNCES CANADIAN MONEY AT PAR ON OUR COMPLETE SELECTION OF PEUGEOT, MIYATA, UNIVEGA AND CANNONDALE MOUNTAIN AND RACING BIKES AND ALL ACCESSORIES INCLUDING HELMETS, COMPUTERS, LOOK PEDALS, LOCKS CYCLE CLOTHING AND CYCLE SHOES EXTRA SPECIAL BELL BRAVA HELMET REG.$49.95 SALE *3495 CANADIAN $ AT PAR OVER 17 YEARS OF PROFESSIONAL BICYCLE SERVICE AT THE GREAT OUTDOORS TRADING CO.The Great Outdoors TRADTNG OQMRMSY 380 Route 220 St.Elle d'Orford, Q< JOB 2S0 Tel: (819) 564-8383 WITH hfh the choice is deaf 73 Main Street, Newport, Vermont (802) 775-6531 8—The RECORD—Friday, July 28, (EJjurdi Itrectnrg ÎUnitrt) Cfjurclj of Cnnnbn 11:00 i m Worihlp it Flrtt Baptlit ‘How can •• pOMlbty?"

they drank neithr coffee nor alcohol, and taught that the dance-floor was the trapdoor to Hell.And they believed in Hell so fiercely that after a young lad of my tender age was exposed to the 12 hours of allday meeting it was pretty hard to go to sleep when you went to bed that night.Now those of you who have known me over the years are well aware that I have long since been completely cured of any holiness that was scared into me when I was young and innocent.But there was one event of that awesome day which I still remember with genuine admiration, and that was the ceremony called “the washing of feet”.Ever heard of it?Well if you wipe the dust off that H.Gordon Green 1, :i K/r *8.25 ÜBCura has designed a special package for you to get your Garage Sale off to a great start.In conjunction with your prepaid ad you'll receive a Special Garage Sale Package which include* everything you'd need to lei your prospective customer* know about your sale and to help you gel thing* organized.What you get for only $8.25 Up lo 25 words for 3 days in our classified “garage sale” column.11* per word per day for extra words.Plus.And if any marchonditt ramom* oftar fha sole, give Ciaudied a col.Our Merchandite classification will help you sell what's let».e 2 l»r|e Garage Sale tign* e 2 large arrows e 32 price tag* e 2 inventory theett • Your Garage Sale Checklist complete with helpful tip* Get the whole family involved and start today to plan for your Garage Sale with the help of ficaml Come in and place your Garage Sale ad and pick up your special Package from Beam) Monday to Friday 8:30 a.m.to 4:30 p.m.If you cannot come in, we will accept collect calls for placement of your Garage Sale aa, and mail your Garage Sale Kit.($1.25 extra for postage) Payment is required with your order.Bible that Grandma left you and you study the Scripture relating to the Last Supper, you’ll discover something more than the story of the bread and the wine which Christ passed around to the Disciples.You’ll discover that on that last night Christ got up from the meal “and he laid aside his garments ; and took a towel and girded himself.After that he poureth water into a basin and began to wash the disciples ’ feet and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded." Knowing that you’re probably allergic to Scripture I’ll skip what I can of the rest of that chapter from St.John, but you may recall that Peter didn’t like this crazy idea of having another man wash his feet for him and he protested.Whereupon our Lord told him “If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.” And a little later, after Peter got the idea, “If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet, ye also ought to wash one another’s feet.” And this was the Scripture which my father’s brethren were determined to follow.Never will I forget that strange rite: the women gathered on one side of the church, the men on the other.Basins and towels appeared like magic, pant legs were rolled up to expose the shocking pallor of naked legs complete with such unlovely things as bunions and varicose veins.Basin in hand and towel about his waist, each worshipper took his turn bathing the feet of the brother beside him, kneeling as he did so.Then he in turn sat down and bared his feet to be washed.I remember too that while all this strange rite was going on, the little church was so full of singing that the windows shook with the joy of it.Hymns long since gone from the books, I think.Brotherhood hymns.I have often wondered since by what special dispensation the churches of today have set aside that part of the Lord’s Supper.Seems to me that 20 centuries of priests and holy men have laboured to surround even the most incidental of Christ’s utterances with elaborate ceremony and massive theological argument.We are served the bread on silver platters, the wine in chalices of gold, and the whole ceremony of the Mass has been built around them.“Go ye unto all the world” Christ commanded, and missions and Bible Societies and an endless variety of evangelical movements still combine to make a multi-million dollar industry of religion.“I come not to send peace but a sword,” Christ told his disciples, and Christian soldiers have been marching onward to holy wars ever since.But that sweet and simple little commandment about the washing of feet seems to have disappeared along with the humility and brotherhood which was once the kingdom and the power and the glory of the Christian faith.W.I.members entertain family and friends at a social ABBOTSFORD — Instead of a W.I.meeting in the month of July, a casserole luncheon was held on the 5th in the parish hall where many guests, members, husbands and children gathered to have a tasty meal, with strawberry shortcake topped with whipped cream for dessert.Before everyone occcptvd Wil it keep Aft beating?Be^ RED CROSS Biood Donor served themselves at the wellladen serving table, a welcome to all was extended by our President Mrs.P.Rowell and grace was pronounced by Miss M.Ferris.Beautiful flower arrangements were placed around the room and on the tables, really emphasizing the fact that it truly was a real lovely summer day and indeed was a delightful one for those attending.A white elephant table heaped with “odds and sods” seemed very popular and was quite profitable for the Branch.After cleaning up, a few stayed and enjoyed playing cards.Thanks to all who helped in any way to make this a most successful day.Come On Over 'N See Our Exhibit of Dairy Cattle at the Sherbrooke Fair David "Butch" Crack Bilingual Auctioneer P.O.Box 514, Richmond, Quebec 826-2424 LOOK AT WHAT WE HAVE!

— Horses in Harness — Food — Arts & Crafts — Poultry — Agriculture — Clowns Preventing, treating Lyme disease By Peter H.Gott, M.D.I have adapted the following review of Lyme disease from information supplied by the S.C.Johnson Wax Entomology Center in Racine, Wis.The incidence of the illness more than doubled between 1987 and 1988, with about 6,000 cases last year in 43 states, most of them on the East Coast and in the Midwest.The microorganism that causes Lyme disease is a spiral-shaped bacterium (spirochete) called Borrelia burgdorferi, which was first discovered during an outbreak of the infection in Lyme, Conn., — hence, the name of the affliction.The spirochete is spread through a tick bite, generally by the deer tick Ixodes dammini or the Western blacklegged tick Ixodes pacificus.These ticks are very small, often no larger than a pinhead.Consequently, they are difficult to detect and produce no pain when they bite.The ticks usually live about two years; during their life cycle, they feed three times, usually on deer, mice, birds and other warmblooded creatures.They can obtain a blood-meal on humans at any stage of their development.Younger ticks, called nymphs, present the greatest threat because they are especially voracious and tiny.Ticks become infected by feeding on an infected host; they transmit the spirochete by biting new hosts.In the adult stage, only the female is likely to transmit the disease.The male will attach but not feed.Following a tick bite, Lyme disease symptoms appear days to years later.The first sign of infection is usually a characteristic rash or lesion, called erythema migrans, that ordinarily appears within a month at the site of the bite.It is red and circular, resembling a bull’s-eye.The lesion may or may not be painful, but it often itches and feels hot to the touch.Erythema migrans may spread and enlarge.It is usually accompanied by flulike symptoms, such as headache, joint pains, muscle aching, feeling unwell, fatigue and low-grade fever.In untreated patients, more serious symptoms and signs may develop, including nerve malfunction — such as facial paralysis (Bell’s palsy), encephalitis (brain inflammation) and abnormalities of nerves in arms and legs.In addition, heart inflammation and irregular pulse may indicate cardiac involvement.Finally, painful and swollen joints are common; up to percent of patients may develop arthritis.The diagnosis is established by the appearance of the rash, in association with other symptoms.A blood test may confirm the diagnosis, but it does not always reveal infection.In some studies, the Lyme blood test failed to detect infection in half the patients tested.Therefore, the diagnosis is often difficult to make or can only be suspected.Some physicians recommend that if a person is bitten by a tick, he or she should take the tide to the doctor or hospital so it can be analyzed for infection.Treatment consists of antibiotics.Depending on the severity (and duration) of the infection, long-term intravenous drug therapy may be required.Prevention is key.Ticks inhabit back yards, as well as fields and wooded areas.They often perch on the tips of vegetation, waiting for a suitable host.Before transmitting the disease, a tick must attach to a host, find a suitable place to puncture the skin and spend many hours feeding.The risk of contracting the disease is highest during the months between April and October.Experts recommend that people who are outdoors during these months take the following precautions: Avoid contact with vegetation; stay on paved or well-mowed paths; wear light-colored, tightly woven clothing with long sleeves and pants tucked into socks or boots; use tick-repellent (such as DEET) on skin and clothes; check clothes for ticks.Also, people should examine their pets and their own bodies (paying special attention to hair, scalp and neck).For more information about Lyme disease and tick protection, send a business-size, self-addressed stamped envelope to Lyme Disease Information Center, 8756, Box 1523, Racine WI 53403 or to the Lyme Borreliosis Foundation, 39 Anderson Road, Tolland, CT 06084 © 1989 NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN DR.GOTT PETER GOTT, M.D.Hazard lurks among season’s tools By Polly Fisher DEAR READERS — Every season brings its special tasks and activities — and sometimes these seasonal activities carry with them potential poison hazards.Here are some summer poison hazards to watch out for: Gasoline Weedkillers Pesticides Varnish with ' My newsletter “Childproof ing Your Home,” offers advice on poison first aid, as well as checklists of ways to prevent accidents in every room of your home.Send $1 for each copy to POLLY’S POINTERS, in care of this newspaper, P.O.Box 93863, Cleveland, OH 44101-5863.Be sure to include \ke title.Hope everyone is having a safe — and happy — summer!

to local lakes The provincial police patrol boat recently made its debut on the waters of the principal lakes of the Eastern Townships.The boat — 20 feet long, eight feet wide and equipped with a 205-horsepower, six-cylinder engine — doesn’t pass by unnoticed on lakes Memphremagog, Massa-wippi and Megantic.But it will also be seen on numerous other waterways of the region, not to be on parade but to deal severely with those imbeciles who drive crazily with their boats, putting the lives of fellow citizens in real jeopardy.It's long overdue that such surveillance was established by the Surêté du Quebec.The two teams responsible for patrol have a highly charged program from dawn to dusk, seven days a week—up until the middle of September.The boat patrols are especially addressed at inebriated drivers who can’t separate drinking and driving and the officers will be applying the same standards and philosophy as with driving a car while drunk.Breathalyzer equipment to determine alcohol percentage in the blood of a suspected boater is standard equipment aboard the police boat.Lieut.Michel Carpentier of one patrol team emphasized the police will be diligent when it comes to driving a boat under the influence but will be equally rigorous in applying sanctions against those who don’t wear their individual life-preserver vests as well as reckless boating.Our goal is clear, we want to prevent tragic deaths and improve the quality of life on the water so that users may enjoy boating in total security, he added.There’s no doubt many freshwater boaters will be surprised at the cost of boating tickets, which can range up to several hundred dollars.In my humble opinion, it’s high time the Surêté reestablished a little order on our waterways as the situation has become more and more intolerable.There is reason to believe that the presence of the police patrol on our region’s lakes will improve the situation.FAMILY HUNTING CHEAPER Yvon Picotte, Quebec’s minister of recreation, hunting and fishing is pleased to announce that from the next hunting season on- Great outdoors Ely REAL HEBERT wards, a family may hunt small game or practice snaring snows-hoe hares with just one hunting licence per activity.A hunting-licence holder for small game may be accompanied by his or her spouse and their children under 18 and all may hunt with the single licence.To qualify for this rule, members of the family who hunt must nonetheless be holders of a hunter’s certificate and carry it with them in the absence of the licence holder.One may also take part in this kind of hunting if one has the holder’s licence.Note however, that, as with fishing, families in possession of one of the licences must conform to the daily limits prescribed for each licence.In the case of snaring snowshoe hares, the same rules are applied except the hunter’s certificate is not required and there is no catch limit.The overall objective of these new rules is to reduce costs for a family to hunt small game and showshoe hares.This year, small-game hunting permits cost $8, $1 of which is designated for the Quebec Wildlife Foundation.Picotte said this initiative demonstrates the importance of the government's commitment to family policies and his own ministry’s interest in family recreation, Picotte said.It should be emphasized that only Quebec residents who lived in the province for 12 months qualify for this measure.Canadian pro soccer determined to succeed By Bill Beacon The Canadian Press The Canadian Soccer League is getting fed up with its weak links— Ottawa, Montreal and Calgary — but is more determined than ever to make a success of North America’s first attempt at a real soccer circuit.“This is our third year and it’s going to be a turning point for everybody,” said Winnipeg general manager Mike McKee, whose team boasts the league’s highest average attendence at 4,859 per game despite a 2-9-5 won-lost-tied record on the pitch.“It’s a make-it-or-break-it year.The teams that are struggling, if they don’t make it this year, won’t be here any longer.” Commissioner Dale Barnes is talking about allowing weak franchises to fold, but the talk comes from a new confidence that the three-year-old league, with little money but modest goals, is working.A gold medal last week at the Francophone Games with a team of mainly CSL players, a new three-year contract with The Sports Network, cities seeking franchises and a slight increase in attendence around the league has Barnes smiling.“The fear of losing a team is no longer with this league,” said Barnes.“The league has a very solid foundation.We wouldn’t be happy to lose a team but it wouldn’t mean the imminent demise of the CSL.” JOINS LEAGUE Halifax is to become the CSL’s 11th team next season.Regina, London, Ont and Kelowna, B.C.are interested The possibility of losing a team is there, however, and no moreso than in Montreal, Canada’s second-largest city and potentially one of its strongest franchises.“It’s a day-to-day situation,” said Montreal general manager Pari Arshagouni, whose team has the highest average attendence in the East Division at 2,335 but no money for players or staff.Ottawa and Calgary have made moves to ensure they will finish this season, but Montreal can make no guarantees.Lacking a major sponsor, the team will fall at least $250,000 short this season, a hefty bill for the community-owned team’s 40 directors.Lack of money cost Montreal a handful of its best players this season and it holds the league’s worst record at 2-9-2.Selling to a private owner may be the only solution.Ottawa, with an engaging squad under player-coach Paul James and the league’s top scorer in American Ted Eck, nearly folded until directors found enough cash to finish the year.FOUND MONEY “We were close,” said general manager Tom d’Amico.Ottawa, with 1,391 spectators per game at Terry Fox Stadium, lives on sponsorship from the Perez development company, but has six sponsors lined up for next season, said d’Amico.Calgary, which won the championship in the league’s inaugeral season in 1987, also had it’s emergency meeting and a public appeal for $140,000.General manager Peter Walsh now says the team is “100-per-cent certain” it will finish the year.Calgary nearly folded last year when its private owner ran out of cash.Since the team went to community ownership, “we’ve spent the last year mending bridges,” said Walsh.“Now the team has a good chance,” he said.Vancouver, the 1988 champion, is the league's success story, regularly packing a capacity 4,600 into Swangard Stadium.The CSL was formed by the Canadian Soccer Association after Canada’s first ever qualification for the World Cup tournament in 1986 to develop players and spark interest in the game.Unlike the offside lines and assists on goals of the defunct North American Soccer League, the CSL plays international rules.MacMartin wins Brome Lake Triathlon KNOWLTON — Andy MacMartin of Cowansville celebrated his 17th birthday Sunday by topping all 230 other participants in the Brome Lake Triathlon.MacMartin piled up a lead of over a minute on runner-up ironman Ron Walker, 1:54:20 to 1:55:24, and both were well ahead of the first team entry.The initial swimming segment of the triathlon was “about a minute and a half short," estimated organizer Mike Mullin, because somebody stole the motorboat that was to be used to tow the turnaround marker into place A rowboat crew couldn’t get the marker out far enough before the starting gun.But most participants never noticed, praising the organization, a flat and fast 40-kilometre cycling course, and a 10-kilometre running course that opened with 5-k of hills but then was a downhill sprint to the finish.Cynthia Aita, second woman off the bicycles, took advantage of the running segment to overtake Sheila Kealey for top ironwoman honors.But it was still either woman’s race right to the finishing chute, with only 17 seconds between them after over two hours of competition.All team entries were lumped into a single category.The mixed team of swimmer Isabelle Pel- Chomyc By Steve McAllister TORONTO (CP) — Lance Chomyc kicked a 14-yard field goal 34 seconds into the fourth quarter, allowing the Toronto Argos to survive a third-quarter scare by Edmonton and beat the Eskimos 21-17 Thursday night.An announced crowd of 34,840 at SkyDome watched Edmonton score 17 points in the third quarter to overcome a 17-0 deficit.The Eskimos, who for the first time in three CFL games this season, are winless in their last eight trips to Toronto.Chomyc added a 21-yard single on a missed field goal in the final two minutes as Toronto improved to 2-1.Edmonton had one final try but quarterback Tracy Ham threw his fifth interception into the hands Aerobic Sports By Merritt ‘Jackass’ Clifton land, cyclist Alain Caron, and runner Francois Martel scored an upset victory in 1:58:17.Also surprising everyone was the Sutton team of Kevin Phelps, Nicholas Le-Maitre, and Alexandre Leduc, who took second.The elite women’s team of swimmer Diane Legaré, cyclist Suzie Moire, and runner Cindy New came home a distant third.Just back from a silver medal in the Francophone Games Marathon, competing for the second time in five days, New seemed “tired” to bystander Roger Page of Brome Lake Runners.But I was standing right beside Page, and to me she looked quick and cool as ever, posting a 10-k time of approximately 37 minutes.In fact, New made as strong a finish and quick a recovery as any competitor I saw.Joining Page and the Jackass in the unaccustomed role of spectators were multi-time Tour du Lac of Toronto linebacker Bruce Holmes.Gill Fenerty scored on a two-yard run and Rodney Harding returned an interception 16 yards for Toronto’s other touchdown.Harding supplied the Argos with a 17-0 advantage at halftime on a strange play.With 10 seconds remaining, Edmonton quarterback Ham attempt a screen pass that landed in the arms of the Toronto defensive tackle.Harding rumbled into the end zone untouched.But the Eskimos bounced back in the third quarter.An interception by Enis Jackson set up a 31-yard field goal by Jerry Kauric at 6:07 and Reggie Taylor rambled 27 yards to cut the deficit to seven points three minutes later.A 64-yard punt return by Tony Hunter led to a six-yard run by Brome 10-k winner Joel St.Louis and perennial division contender Leon Millette.First of the Brome Lake Runners was Jim Kenny, in 2:12.Don Bissonnette of Abercom clocked 2:24:40, while neighbor BillNunnelly scored2:28:19.After Page made a couple of wisecracks about Bissonnette’s performance, the latter offered, “If he wants to race a triathlon, I’ll take him any time.” The two have often trained together.ALL THE WINNERS: IRONMEN: Andrew MacMartin, 1:54:20; Ron Walker, 1:55:24; Ian Dalling, 1:57:13; Daniel Sau-riol, 1:58:30; Denis Brown, 1:58:52.IRONWOMEN: Cynthia Aita, 2:09:48;
