said.The winter months of the year are spent in Paris.Bell's other passion is uncovering the circumstances of the great Houdini\u2019s death.The 58-year old author became hooked on Houdini after he was asked by Today magazine in 1982 to submit a column on the illusionist\u2019s death nine days after a stage appearance in Montreal.The magazine folded before Bell completed the assignment, but his curiosity was sufficiently piqued to continue the investigation on his own.\u201cBy that time I was so intrigued, I started my own investigaticn and have continued off and on since 1982,\u201d Bell said in an interview Sunday at the Auberge Glen Sutton, where he spends every summer Sunday selling the books he collects.+ Hom Stn What is known for certain of the mas- x ter illusionist\u2019s death is that he died after receiving a blow to the stomach backstage of Montreal\u2019s Princess Theatre following the 1926 performance.\u201cHoudini used to boast about his ability to put mind over matter, which allowed him to withstand violent blows to the stomach,\u201d Bell said.But even the great Houdini had to be psyched before taking a blow.Bell maintains Houdini was struck in the stomach by a McGill University student who apparently decided to test the magicians mettle without allowing him time to prepare for the test.Bell says he\u2019s learned through interviews that two McGill students, Sam Smiley, an artist dubbed Smilovitz by his friends, and Jacques Price, were invited to the magician\u2019s dressing room after Houdini expressed admiration for a sketch Smiley had done of

prepared.Bell said medical records have attributed Houdini\u2019s death to peritonitis, probably sustained from a blow to the stomach.No further investigation was ever conducted.Bell said Whitehead, a Kelowna B.C.man of Scottish descent who died in 1954, vanished following the incident and little is known about his whereabouts.However the author\u2019s research did lead him to Whitehead\u2019s girlfriend in Vancouver, who provided a few more pieces of the puzzle.Bell's theory the attack may have been deliberate is buttressed by the fact Whitehead, who claimed to be a divinity student though he was registered as an arts student, was at odds with the magi- cian\u2019s views on spirituality.\u201cAt that time Houdini was debunking spiritualist beliefs about supernatural powers and exposing many so-called spiritualists as hoaxes,\u201d Bell said.He says there also appears to be a link between Whitehead and alternative religious groups.The McGill dropout is known to have spent time at the Jacquays farm in Sutton during the late 1940s or early \u201950s.Bell is looking for anyone in the area who might remember Gordon Jocelyn Whitehead.He adds that although Whitehead is a recognizable name in the Townships,there is no connection with local Whitehead families.Anyone with information is asked to call Don Bell at 538 -1873 or write him at Box 806, Sutton, Quebec, JOE 2KO0.exit 20,

provinces Search pays off for persistant couples KNOWLTON \u2014 It's unlikely to become the newest craze in recreational activity, but looking for a needle in a haystack has provided several weekends of fun and adventure for two local couples.The exercise was even more rewarding when they succeeded in finding the 13-inch wooden needle, the only one hidden Quebec \u2014 then returned to find a second needle hidden in Ontario.The find netted the searchers a cash reward and a donation to a seniors residence of their choice.on the search after reading about it in the U.S.based Country magazine.Chesbro said it was Battley\u2019s father, a subscriber to the magazine, who encouraged the couples to enter the contest to find the hidden needle.Field editors for the magazine hid one needle in each Canadian province and in each of the 50 states as an extension of a popular \u201cneedle in the haystack™ contest regularly featured in the magazine.Initially readers were encouraged to find the needle hidden somewhere on the pages of the magazine and were rewared with a country gift if successful.The popularity of the contest prompted the magazine to launch a more physical search for a needle in the haystack.The search was combined with a spring clean-up effort and searchers were encouragad to bring along garbage bags to collect roadside refuse while they looked for the hidden needle.\u201cThe clean-up was an aspect that interested us,\u201d said Vivien Grenier.\u201cWe picked up a trunkful of garbage the first time and recycled everything that was recyclable.\u201d Before setting out,the search-party studied a map provided by the magazine and developed a strategy to cover the 10 square miles of North- Western Quebec.\u201cWe decided to work in relays, explained Kathie Bat- tley.\u201cAlbert and Kevin started out on foot, then we drove the car to a different point and began there.\u201d The first search, conducted under wet and snowy March conditions, proved unsuccessful, but it qualified the searchers for a second map which reduced the territory to four square miles.They set out again in April, trekking along country roads, through ditches and over streams until Chesbro made the discovery.\u201cI couldn\u2019t believe it,\u201d said Chesbro, still excited about the find several months later.\u201cIt was wrapped in plastic and hidden in a tree.I was so excited.\u201d The four shared the $500 US prize with seniors at the Knowl- banks residence in Knowlton.\u201cHalf the money went to Knowlbanks and the residents decided to buy a Gordon Ladd painting,\u201d said Battley.The Knowlton artist said he | plans to paint a needle in the painting chosen by the seniors as a reminder of the search.Buoyed by their success, Chesbro and Battley decided to re-enter the contest, this time to search for the Ontario needle.\u201cWhen you start out you never know which part of the province it\u2019s hidden until you get the map,\u201d said Chesbro.Since the Ontario needle was hidden close to the Quebec border near Carillon, the couple decided to spend last weekend searching for it.\u201cWe saw tracks along the road so we were fairly certain others were looking for it as well,\u201d said Battley.But they were no match for the pros, who: «J spotted the needle attached toa Ex# hydro pole along a country road.Battley says this time the money will be shared with another group of seniors \u2014 probably in West Brome.\u201cWe're not motivated by the money,\u201d said Battley.\u201cWe did it for the adventure and it gave us a chance to get away on a little vacation and have some fun doing it.\u201d Finders, keepers: Kevin Battley and Vivien Grenier joined Kathie Battley and Albert Chesbro in a missing needle search that led them through two provinces.BROME COUNTY NEWS\u2014Wednesday, August 16, 1995\u20143 a 46 Canadian Club opens year with look at racism The Canadian Club of the Yamaska Valley will open its 1995-96

Et dans une étude sur l'efficacité des placebos, les chercheurs ont trouvé que le facteur principal de l'amélioration de l'état d'une personne prenant un placebo était l'intensité avec laquelle elle croyait en son médecin.Les croyances transparentes sont celles à travers lesquelles nous regardons sans les voir.Une croyance transparente nous semble absolument vraie sans doute ni réserve.Comment ces croyances créent-elles les expériences que nous vivons?C'est comme pour un projecteur de cinéma qui produit une lumière blanche constante.Si la lumière blanche devait la clé de la réalité\u201d Entre Nous Par Thérèse Bernard atteindre l'écran, telle qu'elle est, l'écran apparaîtrait blanc.Mais elle passe à travers un film qui change la lumière blanche en couleurs et en images.Changez le film et vous changez l'image sur l'écran.Tout comme le film filtre et change la lumière du projecteur, ce que nous considérons comme vrai filtre et oriente notre attention.Plutôt que de changer le film pour créer une expérience différente, nous pouvons changer ce que nous croyons.En fin de compte, c'est notre attention qui solidifie et porte à notre conscience les possibilités infinies que nous appelons la réalité.Mais nous sommes si identifiés avec ce que nous vivons que c'est tout ce dont nous sommes conscients.Nous sommes si absorbés dans l'action de notre vie que nous n'avons pas conscience que derrière l'écran de notre expérience, nos propres croyances orchestrent notre vie comme le film qui passe devant la lumière du projecteur.Jusqu'à ce que nous nous séparions de notre expérience et que nous voyions les événements de l'extérieur, nous avons l'impression d'être l'expérience.Exactement comme dans un bon film, nous nous perdons dans l'action.Comment sortir de l'action?Il y a plusieurs techniques parmi lesquelles se trouve Avatar, un cours de puissance personnelle qui a la capacité de nous amener à un tout autre niveau d'expérience en enseignant des méthodes pour changer les croyances qui ne nous aident pas pour les remplacer par celles qui créent les expériences que nous désirons.Neighborhood Watch is a program for all West Bolton Neighborhood

garden where visitors can find a cure for what ails them \u2014 including the craving for something beautiful.Each wild plant in the stunning collection, grown in the shadow of the Sutton mountains, is filled with promise.Herbal gardens originated in the Middle Ages when wild plants were collected for their medicinal properties and secret ingredients.Kelly spends much of her time chatting with visitors about the various properties and possibilities of each of the plants.Visitors might learn that hollyhocks have emollient properties and can act as a skin softener or calm a troublesome cold.Valerian with its pungent sweet smell has roots which will purportedly help cure insomnia.Wormwood tones the liver, the yellow flowers of the mullein are used to produce an oil used in the treatment of earache, and the betony soothes neuralgia as well as having a calming effect.A long list of plants Good for health and beautiful too If nothing else, people will feel better after strolling through the garden.Kelly said she began the herbal garden last summer for her own use and pleasure, but due to local interest in the harvest, decided to open it to the public this summer.Since mid-July she has been answering questions from some 20 visitors a day on the hundred different varieties of medicinal plants she has cultivated.Each cluster of plants is clearly identified by a wooden marker and an accompanying guide sheet helps visitors walk through the garden.In addition to the medicinal herbs, Kelly also grows a variety of vegetables and fine herbs for cooking, and provides helpful tips on ecological gardening and crop rotation to preserve soil.The garden is framed by colorful displays of poppies, bee balm, rudbeckia and other flowers which have survived despite the long hot summer.The garden is situated off Route 139 between Sutton and Abercorn \u2014 turn left on Rocheleau \u2014 and is open seven days a week from 10 to 5 until the end of August.An entry fee of $2 is charged.that help with health SUTTON (SM) \u2014 Some of the plants visitors might find in the garden include: All-heal, an astringent used in the treatment of sore throats and cankers; Angelica, a cough medicine and stimulant used to treat colds, digestive weakness, menstrual irregularities, and alcohol addiction.Anise is used to relieve gas and abdominal pains while Basil helps to relieve fevers, colds, headaches and nausea, and aids in digestion.Betony can be used as a tonic to calm hysteria and other nervous afflictions, Bittersweet is a narcotic that helps eliminate skin eruptions, and the troublesome Burdock serves as a diuretic and helps purify the blood and ease urinary tract problems.Catnip helps curb insomnia, Chami- mille calms the nerves, reduces digestive disorders and menstrual cramps.Fennel relieves gas and colic, Garlicis a stimulant with antibiotic properties used in the treatment of lung ailments, infections, headaches and nervous disorders.Eucalyptus is used for relief of coughs and arthritic aches and pains.Dill relieves abdominal pains and children\u2019s colicky cramps, Coriander acts as a laxative and relieves

Emma is supported by Ralph Steiner, who played one of the three alternating Josephs in Echo Art's production of Joseph and The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat at Theatre Lac Brome last Fall and who starred in the spring production of Oh, What a Circus! Ralph has also designed the set and lighting for Pizza Man.Kate Wisdom completes the cast and is well known to Townships audiences having appeared for the past five years with the Knowlton Players.She also participated in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat and Oh, What a Circus!

once I hit the spokes instead, and the result was disaster in the dust.Technology as always moved swiftly.One speed gave way to three-speed, succeeded quickly by the ten-speed, then as-many-as-you-want speed.The first ten-speed bikes with their pencil-thin tires looked silly in the country, though, much too vulnerable to rough pavement and quite useless on gravel.The mountain bike seemed the perfect innovation for back roads and off- roads, black, straight armed and nubby- tired, tough and menacing like a giant mechanical attacking insect.I've watched for sales, or good deals on used Brome briefs Tourism Bromont has been awarded a $10,000 grant under the Quebec regional development program.The funds will used to produce promotional brochures outlining the various tourist attractions in the region and a tourist guide to Bromont restaurants.The grant is one of 19 projects approved in the Montérégie to share $550,000.The Cyclists Association of Drummondville-Foster received $75,000 to complete a cycling path which will link with existing paths in the Eastern Townships and Vermont.Total investment projected for the 19 projects is $1.2 million and will create some 50 jobs in the region.@ The CP station has been moved from Foster to its new perch at the corner of Routes 243 and 215.The Chamber of Commerce plans to organize a series of fund-raisers to raise the funds necessary to renovate the historic staion as a tourist bureau and train museum.Donations are welcome.@ A memorial service will be held Thursday at 3:30 at L\u2019Abricot in Knowlton for local businesswoman Denise Goyer.The former Brome Lake Chamber of Commerce secretary was instrumental in organizing several activities for the business community.@ After a brief closure, La Canardine restaurant on Lakeside has re-opened under the ownership of chef Michel Cloetens.The restaurant will be open daily except Monday, as well as for for lunch Wednesday through Sunday under the new name La Canardiere.BROME BEEFS .@ Ed Reyjacks thinks its time Brome Lake town council takes another look at its noise bylaw.Reyjacks told council earlier this week legal authorities for The Country Squire By Brian Eddington ones from guys in casts and bandages, but so far have stayed with a typical Canadian compromise; a six-speed with sort of big tires.Recently, a former neighbor returned from Ontario with two quality mountain bikes on her rack, and off we went.The choice was between Sutton and Bromont.I suggested the former, it being farther off the autoroute and perhaps more forgiving for the beginner \u2014 me.I was a bit hesitant, my spring training program having died in the planning stage.And that hard, narrow little seat.Do bicycle seat designers really have absolutely no clue as to the size of the average adult behind?We practiced in the parking lot.There was lots of room, ours being the only car.I didn\u2019t like putting my feet in the stirrups, preferring to have them free for breaking falls on short notice.The moment of truth at hand, we headed for the hills, only to find the way roped off with a \u201cDo Not Go Beyond This and beefs the town claim the bylaw lacks teeth.The West Brome man claims he is being kept awake nights by noise from the neighboring saw-mill now operating 24 hours a day.Earlier this summer Knowlton resident Brian Timmins complained to the town about amplified music in the park.Councillors promised to re-examine the bylaw.@ Women in the region have plenty to beef about following the release of income statistics last week by Statistics Canada.Women in Cowansville earn roughly half as much as men: $22,400 for men compared to $12,100 for women.In Bromont men earned an average $24,200 compared to $12,900 paid to their female counterparts.But there is little to rejoice about for anyone.The average wage for the region ranged between $14,300 in Sutton to a high of $18,600 in Granby.® Dunham resident Pearl Yates is disappointed with a response to her complaint to provincial police and the Quebec minister of public security over the lack of English-language service by the provincial police force.Yates wrote to Public Security Minister Serge Ménard and Dunham QPF Sgt.Roger Poirier in July bemoaning the inability of provincial officers to respond to English-language calls.Ménard responded curtly that he noted from her letter the matter had been raised with the local detachment.QPF supervisor Poirier of Dunham acknowledged there is a language weakness, but assured Yates there is always someone on duty who can speak and understand English.Yates says that's small comfort in an emergency.BROME COUNTY NEWS\u2014Wednesday, August 16, 1996\u20147 The choice was between Sutton and Bromont.biking: A tale of two places Point\u201d sign.That wasn\u2019t very encouraging.It certainly didn\u2019t match the little happy face with \u201cBonjour!\u201d beside it on the pamphlet.We checked with a fellow working behind the motel.He too was puzzled, but suggested it must mean cars.Abit confused, we struck off up a trail rated easy, but which might more aptly have been labelled abandoned.Heat, humidity, brush and mud soon took their toll.It was hard replacing bodily fluids at the rate we were losing them.We realized quickly that these were the cross-country ski trails, converted to biking only on the glossy pamphlet.Summer maintenance was not a high priority.After the shaky start, the experience had many rewards.I didn\u2019t have a heart attack, or suffer a major injury.I looked more fondly upon the mud and thick brush after a head-over-handlebars summersault.Best of all, not another soul was about.We enjoyed a great picnic in a shady stand of spruce with a cooling breeze to keep the deerflies down.The main trail leading back to the parking lot was a well packed series of curves and crosscuts requiring almost no legwork, a pleasant reward for the earlier uphill struggle.Riding the crest of this modest success, I was ready for the next challenge: Bromont.Kind of like the guy who wins ten bucks on the poker machi- on all major a iances, furniture * ior applior coverings, sewing machines, window air conditioners, ers, plus some home improvement items * Except patio and baby fumiture ne at the local depanneur and then immediately heads for the Ile Notre Dame casino.ROYAL» ACTION courtier immobilier inc courtier immobilier agréé Affiliated with Royal LePage SUTTON: Ideal tor 1st home.Why rent when you can buy at approx.$435/mo.$62,000.Linda Bresee 538-3800 SUTTON: Priced to sell!

there's a price you must pay For the wonderful freedom of yore.But there's still reading and writing doing your best; And frolicsome fun with the pets.There's a little more fear and a lot more rest And things that you haven't tried yet.(and not likely to).Whilst rhyming with rest, there's still many a test And challenges coming your way;
