Arlington avenue can thank their creaky floors for alerting them to a burglar in the place in the early hours of Saturday morning.Police said a man, who entered an unlocked front door, helped himself to an overcoat and then began walking around the house.When residents were awakened by the sound about 3:45 am, they screamed, scaring him off.The intruder was described as a white man about 25 years old who spoke English.The navy blue coat was valued at $300.\u201cI've just invented something too.It\u2019s called fire insurance.\u201d Westmount PQ, H3Z 2Y8, Thursday, March 28, 1985 25¢ Seniors urged to lobby for improved facilities By ROB SOUTHCOTT WESTMOUNT'S chief medical officer wants local senior citizens to convince city hall officials that improved housing and services are needed for the elderly in Westmount.At a meeting last Thursday at the Westmount Senior Citizens\u2019 Centre, Dr P.Terry Nugent expressed dissatisfaction with the attitude taken by Westmount city council on the matter.He encouraged members at the centre to let city council know if they felt that conditions forseniors could be improved.\u2018The city of Westmount feels this is not a need because it hasn't been expressed to them,\u201d Dr Nugent told seniors.\u2018\u2019They\u2019re not going to go looking for needs.\u201cIf everyone just says that there is no problem and walks out shaking their head, then nothing will ever be done.\u201d Dr Nugent referred to a report submitted to council recently by Alderman Sally Aitken, commissioner of community affairs (see story last week).It called for an increase in specialized housing for seniors in Westmount and noted the need for nursing homes with graduated care.Despite Ald Aitken's efforts, Dr Nugent doubted that city council would pursue the matter further unless urged to do so by local citizens.Continued on page 20 \"SHOP NEXT WEEK'S WEATHER By Capt Eric Neal March 28 to April 4 generally.\u201cMÉTRO MARKET JESTMOUNT SQUARE | \u201cFREE

Danny, the building superintendent, and firemen.Six birds inside the shop all survived.By LAUREEN SWEENEY A FIRE, believed deliberately set Sunday night, gutted much of the Forever Spring Flower Shop

creatures became the talk of the neighborhood the next day since birds are known to succumb quickly to smoke and noxious gases.The fire, which caused an estimated $40,000 damage to property and contents described as uninsured, was attributed to arson by fire investigators.They said it started in the front east corner of the shop.A large plate glass window at the opposite end of the shop was discovered broken by a public safety officers before the arrival of Westmount firemen.Shop open Tuesday The shop was open for business Tuesday.Firefighters from five mutual aid cities were called to

Westmount Rotarians consulted one of their own members last week to learn about the field of management consulting.Rotarian Denis Collart, a management consultant with the firm Price Waterhouse, gave

consultant,\u201d quipped Mr Collart, \u2018\u2018is someone who borrows your watch to tell you the time and then charges you for it.\u201d On a more serious note, Mr Col- lart explained that using a management consultant could be a sensible way to analyse and solve business problems.A consultant, said Mr Collart, could review matters such as production methods, a product's market, employee recruitment and company organization.The hiring of a management consultant, he continued, eventually should pay for itself through improved operations.Fee covered In one case cited by Mr Collart, the client company covered the consultant's fee with just 10 percent of the money saved through following his advice.\u2018Like any good business decision,\u201d said Mr Coilart, \u2018\u2018your decision to hire a management consultant should be seen in terms of cost and benefit.\" A major advantage in hiring a management consultant, explained Mr Collart, would be having an objective assessment of the situation.Denis Collart \u201cA consultant has no vested interest in the company and no personal contact,\u201d said Mr Collart.\u201cHe doesn't know that Joe and Fred haven't been talking to each other for months.He gives an objective assessment.\u201d Management, said Mr Collart, Westmount filmmaker wins Oscar And the winner is .another Westmount filmmaker.At the Academy Awards Monday,

No.13, Thursday, March 28, 1985 PAIQ Westmount's example WHAT some other suburban municipalities saw simply as a \u201cbusiness deal\u201d West- mount, and more particularly Mayor Brian Gallery, sized up as an unjustified giveaway of Westmount taxpayers\u2019 money.We refer to a City of Montreal out-of-court proposal, advanced by the Conference of Montreal Suburban Mayors, for settlement of long-outstanding claims re over- payment of prior years\u2019 water supplied by the central city to some of its neighbors, including Westmount.Mayor Gallery told local aldermen earlier this month of the proposal and reccived their backing in refusing the scheme which, as presented, required unanimous consent of the municipalities involved.His Worship then communicated this decision to his fellow mayors, some of whom already had signalled their intentions to \u201cgo along,\u201d to get what they could \u2014 even though it involved kicking in proportionate amounts to help Montreal East settle its water indebtedness to Montreal of some $200,000.Mayor Gallery opposed this in principle.Not only are these accounts between supplier and supplied, but there seemed no reason why there should be a bailout by others of a municipality which had not made proper provision for this liability, while argument and litigation progressed.Now other mayors are responding to our city hall\u2019s position by agreeing, not with the scheme but with Westmount.Earlier this week a former local alderman visiting our office volunteered a general comment, quite unrelated to this water matter, that the present Westmount city council is an excellent group of men and women doing their work for the citizens with irnagination, flair and resolve.How right! Not all citizens will agree, at least in areas of their special concern or viewpoint.But it has been some years since the calibre of councillors has been so uniformly high and, more important, equal to the complexities of municipal government unknown even a generation ago.Now, led by our mayor, Westmount's old- style leadership by example \u2014 that the immediate interests of local taxpayers come before \u2018going along\u201d with other cities and towns, or the Conference, or the MUC, or the City of Montreal, or even provincial authorities \u2014 is being exerted once more.Our independence and our uniqueness are the sources of local pride and all West- mounters can be grateful for a mayor and Our works department \u2018co-operative, expeditious\u2019 Sir: Thanks to the prompt and cordial response to a request made to the West- mount public works department last month, a minor crisis was averted.It was bitterly cold and windy late afternoon in February when a young lady stepped out of a car to mail an important letter.The strong winds whipped the letter from her hand and to her horror she watched the envelope slide through an opening in a manhole cover.A telephone call to Westmount city hall resulted in a workman arriving quickly but his attempts to remove the manhole cover were impeded because it was solidly frozen.However, with a combination of ingenuity and persistence, he finally succeeded in hooking the envelope with a makeshift implement and bringing it from its wet resting place several feet below street level.Those concerned with the loss and recovery of the letter are deeply appreciative of the co-operative and expeditious service given late in the workday by the department and the resourceful employee who did the job.(Mrs) Caroline Emblem & (Miss) Patricia McDonald 78 Roselawn crescent TOWN OF MOUNT ROYAL H3P 1M9 Nuclear plan cartoon \u2018juvenile,\u2019 \u2018irresponsible\u2019 Sir: You should not have passed Judy Yelon\u2019s cartoon of March 21 for publication.To treat the most awesome problem confronting mankind today with such juvenile humor is irresponsible.I suggest you obtain a copy of the recent TV film The Final Chapter and have Judy view it every day for a week.Finally, despite her recent brainstorm, I wish Judy a long and happy life.The odds against her, or any of us, having such grow shorter every day.P.R.Gosling 10 Weredale Park WESTMOUNT H3Z 1Y6 Editor\u2019s note: Awesome subject, indeed.Two other reactions: The cartoon ridicules those who think nuclear survival would be simple; the cartoon draws attention to the serious survival plan outlined in the previous week\u2019s paper by Ald Aitken.Time for seniors\u2019 home for those of modest means Sir: Congratulations to Ald Sally Aitken for taking up the fight for our senior citizens.It\u2019s about time a senior citizens\u2019 home was constructed in Westmount to meet the needs of those whose income does not permit them to apply for residence in the Manoir Westmount.Senior citizens in this day and age should not have to share a bathroom or kitchen with anyone.They should be able to live the remaining years of their lives in digni: ty, without moving out of Westmount.I am writing this letter because I have been through it all.My sister lived in West- mount and I was forced to move her into Notre Dame de Grâce for her to be able to apply for low rental housing, established under the Office municipal d\u2019habitation de Montréal.How much easier all this would have been if the City of Westmount had a residence similar to what they have situated at 4040 Girouard avenue, N.D.G.The time is fast approaching for West- mount to deal with this issue while a few suitable lots are still available, such as on Hillside avenue as well as in the blocks east and west of Metcalfe avenue.As a Westmount homeowner (in the lower part of Westmount) I would much sooner see my taxes cover accommodations for senior citizens than the indexing of MUC pensions.W.Richardson 107 Lewis avenue WESTMOUNT H3Z 2K7 City is challenged to relax dog-run hours Sir: Recently, as this publication was so quick to point out, I was fined in the neighborhood of $400 for allowing my dogs to run free in Westmount Park during non- dog-run hours.In a previous letter to your paper 1 pointed out that in my and other people\u2019s opinions the dog-run hours are ridiculous, from 7 pm to 9 am.This, in effect, means that most of these hours are wasted since most people sleep from 11 pm or 12 until 7 or 8 am.I maintain, as always,

Richard D.French says.Preserving power LAST week, I wrote about my current trip to Australia to give a lecture to the Royal Australian Institute of Public Administration on strategic leadership in modern government.I will suggest to the Australians that one of the key factors of governing \u2014 and specially in strategic leadership \u2014 is power, and that we don't really know very much about power.Over the past six months, like many Canadians, I have been watching Brian Mulroney and his government with great interest.It struck me that if we are to think clearly about power, we have to accept that it has two dimensions.The first of these dimensions is the popularity of the government and specially of its leader.The second is the time the government has been in office: the longer the time period in office, the less the power of the government.While the popularity of a leader may fluctuate, he or she in most circumstances will be less powerful at the end of a mandate than at the beginning, because the wear and tear of day-to-day governing inevitably creates disappointment, frustration and, thus, resistance among more and more electors.Power is crucial Why does this matter?Power \u2014 the ability to coerce or persuade people (public servants, businessmen, cabinet members, union leaders) to do what they would not otherwise do \u2014 is crucial to the exercise of strategic leadership, but it is consumed mostly by the demands of daily governing.If political leaders are to exercise strategic leadership, they must hoard power and reduce its dispersal through routine governing or its wastage by error or by grandiose efforts at comprehensive social or economic planning.One way to reduce the diffusion of power in routine governing is to reduce the decision-making burden on central governments, a burden they are increasingly ill- fitted to bear.The way to do this is through increased use of markets, local governments, and decentralized bargaining processes of all kinds.We have to preserve power at the centre for a small number of critical issues truly requiring strategic leadership.SENIORS: (F ALL'S NOT WELL, WRITE You Say Continued from previous page amount of the total park area.In the winter, the majority of park users are dog owners because it's too cold to use the parks for anything else except the occasional cross-country skier and some children.Speaking from experience I know for a fact that all these by-laws affecting dog ownership were not put into effect because of the will of the majority; they were enacted mainly to increase revenue and to placate the mayor, the head of the department of parks and recreation and the head of the Public Security Unit, who all do not happen to be the greatest dog lovers around.In the last letter I wrote to your paper I challenged the mayor to produce statistics that definitively prove that the majority of Westmount citizens would be against 24-hour dog runs.The city never has commissioned anyone to study the feasibility of 24-hour dog runs and they most certainly have never put it to the people.Just because someone is an elected official it does not give them carte blanche to enact by-laws just because they feel that's the way it should be.I wonder what kind of by-laws we'd have if we had a mayor who was a dog owner and dog lover.This also applies to the rest of the council.Dog owners represent a significant block of citizens and voters but they certainly are not proportionally represented on the council.I realize that this is not the mayor's or the council\u2019s fault but of the dog owners themselves.Most dog owners are busy working people and do not have time to go to council meetings to voice their opinions, since council meetings occur during the only hours when these people are allowed to be in the park letting their dogs run.I know of instances where 3,000-signature petitions have been rejected by the council but yet other municipalities require only 500 signatures to challenge a by-law and force a referendum.Ever since Westmount brought their Public Security Unit into effect they've done nothing but enact new, ridiculous bylaws so that the public security officers will have laws to enforce and justify their existence.For the amount of money that this pseudo-security unit costs we could have a real and effective police force like we used to.The only powers these security people have is to enforce municipal bylaws, give parking tickets and harass dog owners, In the 10 years I've had dogs in West- mount, only once has a citizen registered a complaint against me; the other 200 complaints have all come from PSOs who have nothing else to do.I have never had a complaint from a neighbor or anyone except the one person I mentioned.Now, if my dogs were such a menace, don\u2019t you think that the people who are exposed to them constantly, such as neighbors, would complain?Once again, Mr Mayor, I

that, without the necessary care, what is reported can become a manufactured record of reality rather than a record of what actually transpired.This is another reason why I like occasionally to record sessions of council meetings.\u201cRecorders must ask permission\u2019 (EXAMINER, March 14) provides one such example.This article begins: \u201cCitizens wishing to tape record city council sessions were TAKING CORRECTMEDICATION?LONELY?[INA SUITABLE HOME?it Hon.Donald J.Johnston says.Star Wars scored I WOULD much appreciate hearing the views of the readers of THE EXAMINER on the U.S.Strategic Defence Initiative (SDI \u2014 Star Wars) which our government has agreed to support at the research stage.Like many others, I am puzzled that there is so little public protest about a project which will militarize space and create a major escalation in the arms race.To what end?To add a bargaining chip at the negotiation table in Geneva\u201d If so, I think it naive if one is to believe the scientific community which views the whole exercise as somewhat futile if one is really seeking a secure umbrella against intercontinental ballistic missiles.And why have Margaret Thatcher and Helmut Kohl done an about- face, now agreeing to participate like Canada in the research on the feasibility of this concept?Research, incidentally, which will cost some $20-$30 billion! Points to ponder Consider the following: 1.Spending at that level creates a military juggernaut that cannot be arrested.With $20-$30 billion invested in research, the pressure to proceed and produce the hardware will be irresistible.Many more billions will be expended.2.No matter how good the system, scientific opinion is convinced it will be penetrated if enough missiles are launched by the U.S.S.R.3.There is expert scientific opinion to the effect that the Soviet Union could use less expensive technologies to destroy the value of the SDI.For example, the U.S.S.R.now disrupts ham (amateur) radio operators in Europe with high-energy pulses, nicknamed \u2018woodpecker,\u2019 at about the seven megahertz frequency, the most powerful broadcasting station on earth.Jamming radio links of all kinds could be a response to SDI which could render it useless.4.Another Soviet approach suggested by experts is to fill the geostationary orbit where our communications satellites sit, with junk designed to confuse and disrupt any SDI.Frankly, I see the whole exercise as expensive and counterproductive if one believes the president's rhetoric that this will contribute to peace and disarmament.I cannot imagine why Mr Mulroney, Mrs Thatcher and Mr Kohl wish to commit such precious resources to a project that will undermine East-West relations, escalate the Soviet military effort and divert dollars frem other vital research which would contribute to the health and hap- { piness of all mankind. 6 - The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, March 28, 1985 Tire Wertmaunt Examiues SR ry TY Forty-five Years Ago March 28, 1940 \u201cWith a majority of 5,860 votes, Douglas Charles Abbott, KC, Liberal candidate in St Antoine-Westmount, was elected to represent this division in Ottawa in Tuesday\u2019s federal election.Mr Abbott polled a total of 14,597 votes while R.S.White, Conservative, only other candidate in the riding, received 8,737.The Liberal standard-bearer took 80 of the 87 polls in both sections of the division.The election, which brought out an unusually large number of voters, marked the first time that a Liberal has been elected to represent the Westmount section of the riding at Ottawa.\u201d Thirty-five Years Ago March 31, 1950 \u201cLionel J.Fournier, of Arvida, Quebec, has been appointed Superintendent of Recreation of the City of Westmount.Mr Fournier will take up his duties about April 5.He will be responsible for all municipal recreation activities and programs, including the operation of the West- mount Athletic Grounds.Mr Fournier, 33, was born in Pincher Creek, Alberta, and educated at Pincher Creek High School, University of British Columbia .and McGill University.Prior to 1940, parks and recreation in the City of Westmount were separate departments.In 1940, due to war conditions, the two departments were merged into one, under the direction of the Superintendent of Parks.The City has decided to again separate recreation from parks.\u201d Twenty-five Years Ago April 1, 1960 \u201cNational morale is one of the most important factors in determining whether Canada will survive an enemy attack or other form of national emergency, Lt-Col S.E.Alsop, ED, commanding officer of the 11th Signals Regiment, told the Westmount Rotary at their Wednesday luncheon meeting at Victoria Hall.Speaking of the army's new role in national survival, Col Alsop told the club that the morale of the troops plus the morale of the civilian population was as much a determining factor in ultimate victory as equipment and knowledge.\u2018The will to survive means everything,\u2019 he said.\u201d Fifteen Years Ago April 2, 1970 \u201cSomeone set kind of a record for crank calls, with a local resident the target, over the weekend.They ranged from the humorous \u2014 even if expensive for someone \u2014 to the downright irresponsible.In the space of an hour and a quarter, from 11:48 Saturday to 1 am Sunday, the upper level home had unsolicited visits from: one West- mount Police car in answer to a call for \u2018a prowler';

I edit the magazine: I lay it out.I help with the paste-up and color separations.Printing is done by Canadian Gazette Printing in Candiac.\u201cWe are a success.We printed and distributed 15,000 of the first issue and sold over 80 percent.This is fantastic in the magazine world.\u201cA Table! is published four times a year, once every season, and we have produced an autumn 1984 issue, winter 1984-85 and I am presently working on spring 1985.\u201d Mr Chénier has published eight issues of the 48-page Wine and Dine magazine since 1980.It was temporarily suspended last year because most of the national advertising for it comes from Toronto.\u201cI didn't want to move to Toronto because I love Montreal.I love Westmount.I want to stay here.If there are small linguistic problems to solve, we can solve them together and perhaps I can help.\u201d Sold in New York Wine and Dine has a circulation of 20,000 and is sold throughout Canada.Mr Chénier also sold the last issue in New York state.Contributors include Henry Moore, former wine columnist for The Montreal Star: Robert Knowles, Toronto wine writer;

EXAMINER statistics show an uneven increase in Westmount prices month by month through 1984 until October, when prices suddenly dropped to a point barely above valuations.The latest monthly figures show a small reduction in volume with a significant gain in prices over the final months of last year.The sale of a Home at 36 Edgehill road dominates the January statistics with a sale price of $460,000.Two other homes, on Sydenham and Kens- ington, sold for more than $300,000.Five over $200,000 Five homes were sold in the $200,000 to $300,000 range.Fewer homes at the lower end of the market appear in the January summary than is usual.A two-family dwelling on Windsor avenue, which sold for $100,000, was the lowest-priced home.The Windsor sale also represents the greatest markdown from valuation in the month's registrations \u2014 the price was nearly 30 percent lower than the $142,200 valuation.The $132,000 paid for a home on Prince Albert avenue was more than double the property\u2019s $65,300 valuation, the greatest markup recorded during January.When some of the extreme sales noted are removed from the figures, the market is skewed upward, bringing the average price markup to 19 percent over valuation.Five properties other than one- 81-83 Windsor Lowest price, $100,000 Greatest markdown, 29.8 percent or two-family dwellings also appear in the January transfers, including condominiums at 4855 de Maisonneuve boulevard and on Weredale Park.Changed hands 352-54 Elm Muiti-family dwelling sold approximately 9,166 square feet in area, was sold for nearly $150,000 \u2014 roughly three times its 36 Edgehill Highest price, $460,000 valuation.A similar markup also appears in the sale of a Greene avenue commercial building.Valued at $82,200, its sale price is registered as $250,000.Details of the January 1985 transfers follow: A building classed as a multiple-family dwelling on Elm avenue changed hands for $217,000.Vacant land on Summit circle, 59 Chesterfield: Jean Pierre Quijano to Marc Bouchard, sale price $175,000 (1985 MUC valuation $127,400);

AEE USP SERIE ELAS A Bare pavement through winter means 10,000 tonnes of salt By ROB SOUTHCOTT As spring approaches in West- mount, motorists and pedestrians cheer the disappearance of sodium chloride, or road salt, as it commonly is known.It can corrode car bodies, eat up leather boots and leave roads in a slushy mess.For motorists, though, specially when driving on one of the city\u2019s many inclines, road salt can mean the difference between safe and dangerous driving.Westmount crews dumped 10,147 metric tonnes of salt on the city\u2019s streets during the 1983-84 winter season.So far this year, 10,399 metric tonnes have hit the .Streets, and winter may not be } finished yet.In the early 1950s, says city chief engineer Ed McCavour, a fraction of current quantities \u2014 about 50 tonnes per season \u2014 was spread over Westmount roads.Why the massive increase?\u201cSince the 1950s, the number of vehicles on the roads has increased steadily,\u201d says Mr Mc- Cavour, fixing the increase at about two percent each year.He explains that increased traffic means an increased chance of accidents on slippery pavement.Not so good \u2018\u2018People talk about \u2018the good old days\u2019 and they weren't,\u201d says Mr McCavour, remembering a time when bare pavement seldom was visible on Westmount streets in the winter.Mr McCavour says that drivers today demand a \u2018\u2018bare-pavement policy\u2019 from those who maintain roads and he says the only moderately-priced way to achieve this is through the use of salt.\u201cThere are some municipalities, such as some in southern Ontario, that have gone to a policy of keeping salt down,\u201d says Mr Mec- Cavour.\u201cWe do use a lot of it in this city.We're on the south side of the mountain and get high snow accumulation.On our streets, 12 of the 32 miles have slopes between five and 20 percent.We also have lots of arterial streets that carry lots of traffic.\u201cThose conditions add up to getting the salt down before there is a problem.\u201d Salt is not the only substance that has been used to improve traction on roads.When coal furnaces were common earlier this century, says Mr McCavour, cinders were used on local roads.Not only did this require that the cinders be collected by the city, but that roads, cars and footwear were covered by a black coating.Crushed stone © Some municipalities have tried using crushed stone to improve traction, but it does not melt ice and flying stones can do even more damage to cars than can corrosion from salt, says Mr McCavour.He adds that the vehicles of today, made from a lighter metal than cars of the past, are damaged much more easily by road salt and flying stones on streets.N.D.G.police discover Fury A car stolen from the ramp of 4000 de Maisonneuve boulevard early Sunday morning was located moments later by police in station 15 serving N.D.G., police said.The gold 1976 Plymouth Fury apparently disappeared about 4:07 am during the delivery of newspapers.It was valued at metric tonnes of salt.The melting capabilities of salt can be affected by two factors.Traffic is beneficial to help melt ice on a street.It works the salt into the ice, spreads it out and then creates friction to aid the melting process.Since sidewalks have only pedestrian traffic, salt there is ineffective.The public works department uses only sand to increase traction.Temperature also is important.Regular road salt does not work well in extremely cold weather.Less effective \u201cUnder about minus 10 degrees, the salt is not as effective,\u201d says Mr McCavour.According to Mr McCavour, some mid-western American cities, where the climate is particularly cold, overcome the problem by using calcium along with salt.Calcium works at lower temperatures and is less corrosive, but Mr McCavour says it could not be used here.\u201cWe couldn't afford to use calcium,\u201d says Mr McCavour.\u201cEven though it\u2019s less corrosive, it's about 10 times as costly.\u201d In the event of a storm, says Mr McCavour, salt is used as a \u2018first attack.\u201d The amount to be spread News break Someone broke into two Globe and Mail newspaper boxes last Thursday making off with about $60.police report.One was located at Claremont and Sherbrooke; the other at Victoria and de Maisonneuve.ON THE ROAD AGAIN: A city front-end loader fills up one of the public works department's salt trucks at the city yards.The vehicles, which are fitted with salt basins only during the winter, each can hold about eight Experiment may save lawns Some Westmounters are angered at the salt damage done to their lawns by the city\u2019s policy of casting snow in certain areas.Although this policy is unlikely to change, city engineer E.A.McCavour says the city is experimenting with a compound to neutralize the effects of salt on lawns.The compound was applied to certain city properties last fall and when the snow clears this spring, officials will assess its effectiveness.Mr McCavour says that if the substance works, the city could make it available for residential properties.TREY) is calculated according to the amount of snow or ice forecast.\u2018Sometimes, you can make mistakes,\u201d\u201d says Mr McCavour, remembering what happened earlier this season.Public works officials, after receiving forecasts of a large storm, dispatched crews to lay down large amounts of salt.When the storm proved to be a small one, many Westmount streets were white with excess salt.935-1131 Better electrical work our current affair! _ a

of a $250,000 refurbishing budget.Discounted claims He discounted claims that the door buzzer system hooked up to Bell telephone lines did not work.If it was temporarily out of order, he said, it was only a matter of replacing a fuse.The elevator did not \u2018break down\u2019 either, he said.Problems in the past had to do with vandalism and that had been rectified with the dismissal of an employee.He did say, however, that mechanical work was scheduled for one of the two elevators.He said one \u2018\u2018well paid\" janitorial couple and a maintenance man on call were adequate for a building that size.Residents had claimed in a letter that the staff could not keep up with the cleaning and maintenance needed in an older building of that size.One of the frustrating features of the door security system, tenants said, was that it was hooked up to the regular telephone system.Line rings busy As a result, if a visitor in the foyer tried to ring a resident who was talking on the phone, the line would simply ring busy.The resident would never know he had a visitor.On certain occasions in the past when the system was not working, they said, the front door would be propped open.At night, under the same circumstances, when the door would be locked, a sign was posted directing visitors to use a phone booth on Greene avenue, she added.This type of problem prompted one resident to write to the fire department, concerned about the need of firemen to enter the building (see separate story).When THE EXAMINER was invited by tenants to visit the building March 21, problems were encountered entering the building.Instructions worn The entry system was found difficult to understand, partly because full instructions were worn off.In the end, it appeared not to work and someone inside manually opened the door.A tour up the back stairwell revealed that fire doors up to the fifth floor all seemed to overshoot the door frames and appeared not to close completely.Several lights in the stairwell alsc appeared not to function and a number of cigaret butts were seen on the stairs.No fire evacuation signs could be found.They are mandatory under the Quebec public buildings safety act.The elevator was in working order and plastering work was seen in progress.On a return visit to the building March 26, entry was gained using Continued on next page

special code to help speed up possible entry into the apartment building at 10 Rosemount.One resident was so concerned about \u201cfrequent malfunctioning\u201d and other difficulties with the front door security system that she wrote to the fire department in December.\u201cThe firemen are often being called here to get people out of the elevator and I don\u2019t think all of them know how to operate the entry system,\" she said.\u201cI have heard them outside on several occasions and have gone out to let them in.\u201d She later told THE EXAMINER she understood there was a special code that could permit automatic entry.It was used, she believed, by the milkman and certain others.Use to be studied Fire officials Tuesday said efforts would be made to obtain the code and its use would be studied.They explained that in the event of a known fire, where every minute was important, firemen would not hesitate to break through the front door.Attempts were made in other incidents, however, to do as little damage as possible.Inspectors later reported visiting the building to obtain the door code, but had been unsuccessful locating anyone in charge.They had better luck across the TENANTS.Continued from previous page the buzzer code system and the elevator again was found in working order.The stairway doors remained in similar condition, however; the same lights appeared not to work and an additional one appeared to be burnt out.Bruce St Louis, Westmount's director of services, told THE EXAMINER any hazards brought to his attention would be dealt with appropriately.KUTANI,

arose when one citizen, Ramzi Ferahian, was cautioned by Mayor Brian Gallery about taping.\u201d It goes on that I had said I \u201cfelt the mayor's tape recording policy was little different from that of the former mayor.\" And it ends saying that in response to Mayor Gallery's objection, \u201c*No.No.Mayor MacCallum would not permit it at all\u201d I had said, \u201cMayor MacCallum did, after permission was requested.\u201d In that council meeting, after the city clerk had passed him a note on seeing me take out my tape recorder in the question period, the mayor told me that tape recording was not allowed without \u2014 as it was reported in your editorial of March 7 \u201cclearance in advance.\u201d May I remind you, as I reminded the Mayor then but went unreported in your story, that the mayor had granted me permission last August \u2018\u2018to tape-record subsequent city council meetings\" and there was no requirement then of this \u2018\u2018clearance in advance.\u2019 The front page story, \u201cOnce isn\u2019t enough\u201d (EXAMINER, Aug 9, 1984) which is the source of the quote, attests to that.It was in response to this stipulation of \u201cclearance in advance\u2019 that I told the mayor that this was no different from the policy of his predecessor and that this was not indicated when he granted me the permission last year.The writer of last week's article erroneously states that I had said the former mayor did grant me permission to tape-record after I had requested it.I said nothing of the sort and this is a stubborn, repeated error which I already have corrected once before in my letter in THE EXAMINER of Aug 16, 1984, and I quote: TODD & DURSO NOTAIRES\u2014NOTARIES CONSEILLERS JURIDIQUES\u2014TITLE ATTORNEYS 4635 Sherbrooke St.W., Westmount H3Z 1G2 931-2531 J.E.Todd A.F.Durso V.Casoria \u201cIn \u2018Once isn't enough\u2019 (EXAMINER, Aug 9), it was reported that I had not been allowed by the previous mayor to tape a meeting without gaining permission in writing.In fact, I was not allowed to do so even after having written to him for permission, as per his letter of refusal exactly one year ago today, of Aug 10, 1983, as reported in THE EXAMINER the following week.\u201d In your editorial of March 7 you said, \u201cThe tape-recorder matter is really rather silly, in that a good short-hand writer could, if he so wished, make a complete transcript of proceedings \u2014 without permission.The issue, if any, is really a matter of common courtesy or notice to anyone in the council chamber, that what is said, with all the interjections, byplay, grunts and groans, may be taped.\u201d : There is no doubt that the tape record is the real record of what is said and that is why it often is not allowed.As for the \u201cmatter of common courtesy,\u201d I am not the one to begrudge that to anybody let alone our mayor and members of our council.But there is ample difference between *\u2018clearance in advance\u201d and asking for simple permission there and then, as suggested by Alderman Shingler, which I did forthwith.I do hope the writer of that article and your news editor will try a little harder to keep up the standards that make THE EXAMINER a big little newspaper.4998 de Maisonneuve west R.H.Ferahian WESTMOUNT H3Z 1N2 Damage to Canada Post seen in union actions A copy of the following letter has been sent to THE EXAMINER.\"The Right Hon Prime Minister, Mr Brian Mulroney, House of Commons, Ottawa, Ontario KIA OA6 Dear Mr Mulroney, There are some strong messages for you to heed within the attached editorials about increasing undependable postal delivery.THE EXAMINER is right on target that the ultimate responsibility rests with the federal government.I am not at all convinced that your - minister, Perrin Beatty, responsible for Canada Post, has yet fully comprehended the foreseeable developments, nor you for that matter.The track record makes it blatantly clear that the three postal unions will in the foreseeable future be on a vicious merry-go-round.Next on the list will be the \u201c\u2018truckers,\u201d then will come the \u201ccarriers,\u201d then back to the \u2018\u2018inside\u201d workers, back to Square One.The handwriting is on the wall.Who is going to turn off the switch to halt the revolving, uncontrolled machine?The union fools already have cut their own throats, cut also the consumers\u2019 by forcing so many companies to contract with courier services for dependable delivery.Thus less and less Canada Post revenue, fewer and .ewer postal employees required.It\u2019s as simple as that.Earlier this year, before the most recent mail stackup, I sent you some seven or eight envelopes with clear markings on each of delivery dates

Nor will that strategy ever be the answer.All that will do is add to the squeeze on small business and charitable organizations, increase the number of companies resorting to dependable courier services, add to commodity prices, and so on and on, Can you not see the vicious circle?Can you tell me why neither the U.S.A.nor Britain have this never-ending postal problem such ™-Mildon Motriss Butler DISPENSING OPTICIANS \u2014CONTACT LENSES fashion frames, sports frames, prescription sunglasses, contacts (soft and hard \u2014 3-month trial period) AT SPECIAL PRICES Call for information: as we have?Who is running this country \u2014 the unions or your government?Are you looking for the right switch to stop the revolving machine before the next crisis?Yours truly, Margaret Gurd 4145 Blueridge crescent MONTREAL H3H 1S7 Parking dispute 1408 Drummond St.842-3809 4 5016 Sherbrooke St.W.487-5131 near dépanneur Cavendish Mall 482-8290 486-3680 Me Guy Meury, BA, LLL Labreche, Meury, Cimon NOTAIRES * NOTARIES 6575 Somerled, Suite 4 Montreal H4V 1T1 Me Albert Labréche, BA, LLL Me Gail Cimon, BComm, BCL, DDN ends with slap 486-1211 Dr.Harold Miller o.p., m.sc.EYES EXAMINED CONTACT LENSES CAVENDISH MALL Call for appointment: 482-1233 A parking dispute Friday at the Mac's Dépanneur store, 4817 Sherbrooke street, ended with an alleged incident of simple assault against the store's owner, police report.The case, which is under investigation, apparently involved a woman aged about 30, who reportedly slapped the 62-year- old man in the face.groupx de design incorporé SENIOR design group incorporated DESMOND SENIOR b.arch.beng.president 934-5371 EXCELLENCE IN RESIDENTIAL & COMMERCIAL RENOVATION Weigel, Duong & Kliger AVOCATS\u2014ADVOCATES wm.Melvin Weigel My Tram Duong Lillian Kliger Chateau Maisonneuve 4999 St.Catherine St.W., Suite 555 Westmount H3Z 1T3 483-6107 Police said the incident occurred when the woman entered the store asking that the driver of a car obstructing hers move his car.Both cars were in the store's parking lot.The driver was apparently shopping in the store at the time, but the woman was not a customer.The owner was reported to have refused to ask the customer to move his car, claiming the woman had not been authorized to leave her car in the lot.She allegedly slapped him in the face and left on foot.Police said there were witnesses to the incident.A license plate number Office 175 Peel Street PEUGEOT DAY CARE CENTRE PROFESSIONAL AUTO REPAIRS Pit Stop Garage Inc.861-3214 e 861-7016 866-7459 Pierre Desjardins Residence 989-2959 NOTAIRE/NOTARY 5 Place Ville Marie, Suite 1242 Montreal H3B 2G2 was recorded.Papers taken Vehicle papers were the only items found stolen early Friday morning from the glove compartment of a car parked near 4064 Dorchester boulevard, police report.The car, a blue Ford Escort, had been left unlocked, .police said.

to date, over $400,000 has Montreal Women's Centre seeks funds for building been donated towards the million-dollar goal of the campaign.Now, Canada\u2019s largest and most successful women\u2019s centre is asking the help of the public to continue the centre's delivery of services to the community.After a start 12 years ago with 6,000 users of its services, the centre now touches the lives of more than 43,000 women and families every year, in Montreal and the whole of Quebec.Programs are funded by both federal and Quebec governments, and, to a lesser extent, by Cen- traide.All have recognized the quality of services provided by the centre through commendations and a steady increase in the number and size of budgets for the Women's Centre's work.Quebec universities and foreign countries such as Venezuela have recognized the centre as an environment for internships in social work, psychology.vocational counselling and other fields.As a result, the centre welcomed 45 student interns last year.In addition, awards of merit have been received from such organizations as the Ville-Marie Social Service Centre and the Salon de la Femme.Programs of the centre include information and referral, counselling, immigrant aid, con- \u2018sumer help services, educational courses, publications, crisis intervention and vocational services, all with the goal of giving Continued on next

responding to present and foreseeable demands.The old building, whose history goes back to the 1850s, is in need of major renovations.Because of lack of space, French courses for immigrant women take place in the same room, separated only by an office partition from women in crisis receiving counselling or legal advice.Volunteer psychologists and lawyers may be seen in the hallways negotiating with vocational counsellors for the use of the one private room available on the second floor.The waiting period to obtain vocational services now is five months.More space is essential to enable workers and volunteers to receive women in privacy and make groups such as the job search workshops available to more women.The Women's Centre has launched a campaign to renovate and expand its St Urbain street premises.The building fund is nearing the half-way mark of the one million dollars needed.Construction work on the building expansion began Nov 21 last year.After this is completed, the staff and volunteers will move into the new wing while renovation work takes place in the old building.This only will be possible if the campaign goal is met.For more information, call 842-0350.JOINT

she hammered and hammered away, year after year until she reached her goal, only to promptly start a fresh campaign on some other matter,\u201d writes Miss Jenkins.\u201cI regard her in large degree as the creator of the library.\u201d Problems arose According to Ms Clibbon, Miss Saxe made up for the problems that arose under Beatrice Glen Moore, Westmount'\u2019s first librarian.\u201cThe library was set up by businessmen the best way they could, but where they fell down was in not having the proper person to run it,\u201d says Ms Clibbon of Miss Moore's two years as librarian.\u201d She explains that Miss Saxe was different \u2014 a strong individual who faced up to her city employers.Having trained under the notable American librarian Charles Cutter, Miss Saxe also was experienced in library organization.She was, according to Ms Clib- bon, a librarian who \u2018brought a different attitude with her, one to serve the public.\" This was attributed to Miss Saxe\u2019s training in the progressive library system that existed in the United States.Despite this progressive training, says Ms Clibbon, Miss Saxe still held the Victorian attitude of her peers that only non-fiction or the classics made up suitable reading material.Demand not met \u2018We're talking of a tremendous demand for fiction that wasn't being met,\u201d says Ms Clibbon of the library\u2019s policies of the time.She notes that a review of library records showed that, although two-thirds to three- quarters of the library's books were non-fiction, the small stock of fiction had a much higher circulation rate; this despite Miss Saxe\u2019s rule that a maximum of one fiction book could be taken out at a time and the fact that the library charged lower overdue fines on non-fiction than on fiction.The operation of the library was, as it is today, overseen by a committee of trustees representing both citizens and city officials.The five members of the first library committee all eventually served as mayor of the city.One of the trustees, F.W.Evans, sat on the committee for 29 years.In looking at documents of both the committee and the city council of the time, Ms Clibbon found it was difficult to find frank discussion about the library.\u201cThe difficulty in finding historical things with the records that are there is that they say only the safe things,\u201d she notes.\u2018\u2019They\u2019ll say \u2018after a discussion a decision was made,' but I wanted the discussion.\u201cYou have to learn to read between the lines and interpret the process.\u201d Ms Clibbon\u2019s paper will be in- \u2018cluded in the Westmount archives maintained by the library.Zimria brings parents, friends to synagogue More than 600 young Jewish voices were raised in song at the second annual Zimria \u2014 a festival of Jewish day school choirs \u2014 which took place at Congregation Shaar Hashomayim March 13, in front of an audience of approximately 2,000 parents, grandparents, educators and guests.Ten school choirs participated in a program of Hebrew and Yiddish songs, ranging from Biblical to traditional to modern Israeli tunes and lyrics.The evening, opened by Rabbi Shimshon Hamerman, who chaired the inter-school Zimria committee, also included a number of songs performed in unison by all the students.The Zimria was sponsored by the participating schools (Akiva, Bialik High School, Ecole Sépharade, Hebrew Academy Elementary, Hebrew Academy High School, Hebrew Foundation School, Herzliah Snowdon, Herzliah St Laurent, Jewish People's and Peretz Schools, and the Solomon Schechter Academy); the Association of Principals of Jewish Schools; the Jewish Education Council of Montreal; Canadian Jewish Congress.Quebec region, music committee; and the Canadian Zionist Federation, department of education and culture.The Zimria was presented as part of Jewish Music Month, which is celebrated during the month between Purim and Passover.Gubbay gives costume series Aline Gubbay, Westmount art historian, is to present a four-part series on costume on four consecutive Tuesdays in April, organized by the Contact Contemporain Commitee of the Women's Federation of Allied Jewish Community Services and the Fédération des Femmes du Québec.Mrs Gubbay is known as a lecturer, photographer and author.She plans to examine the social implications of dress using illustrated lectures and discussion, generally in French.Sessions will be held April 9, 16, 23 and 30 from 1:30 to 3:30 pm in the fourth-floor boardrooms at 5151 Côte St Catherine road, with an additional field trip to the Mc- Cord Museum.Westmounter Sonia Greenspoon is chairman of the committee planning the series.Information on registration, limited to 25 people, may be obtained by calling 735-3541, ext 254.THE EXAMINER'S weekly religious page carries the notices and reports of Westmount\u2019s various congregations.

Westmount Public Library has assembled most of its material on the city into a unified archival collection.The archives likely make up one of the most complete collections of Westmount memorabilia and documents available.Kept in the library's basement reserve stacks, they are accessible to those who ask at the library's circulation desk.\u201cThese things are all accessible now and we want people to know that they can come in to use them,\u201d says Jerrolyn Dietrich, the library's reference librarian.She adds that the archives could be specially useful for students taking part in the Westmount essay contest currently being run by the City of Westmount.Used the most \u201cOf all the collections that we own, this is one that is used the most,\u201d says Miss Dietrich of the material in the collection.Included in the archives is a complete collection of all city bylaws and minutes of city council meetings dating back to the turn of the century.There also are histories of various Westmount churches and schools and publications by the city or other groups, such as the Westmount Historical Association.Westmount authors such as W.AT STRATFORD: Westmount native William Dunlop returns for his second season to the Strat- ford Festival of theatre in Strat- ford, Ont, this year.playing the postmaster in The Government Inspector, which runs from Aug 9 to Oct 12.He also is to appear in productions of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night and Measure for Measure earlier in the summer.Last season, Mr Dunlop made his festival debut as a member of the young company.Mr Dunlop's father.Bill, ran the Esso service station at Grosvenor avenue and Sherbrooke street for 28 years before retiring with his wife to White Rock, B.C.The family lived on Burton avenue.Mr Dunlop attended Westmount High School and Bishop's University in Lennoxville.He has appeared in numerous theatres across the country and played roles in CBC television programs including Judge, Backstretch, For the Record and Home Fires.Sedan towed A green Ford sedan was towed to the city pound last Thursday at 11:45 am after it was abandoned in front of 241 Kensington avenue, police report.The car was described as \u201call rusty.\u201d .Westmount Public Library D.Lighthall and Aline Gubbay are included in the collection, as are numerous architects who did studies on the buildings of Westmount.There are numerous old photos and postcards, and the collection even includes an old sports yearbook from St Leo's Academy.The book was donated to the library by Mayor Brian Gallery.The only material not included are files of certain Westmount pamphlets and back issues of THE WESTMOUNT EXAMINER and its predecessor, The Westmount News.Miss Dietrich says these articles are kept upstairs in the library because they are used frequently.Part of the motivation behind the assembling of the material, says Miss Dietrich, is the upcoming visit of a doctoral student from Indiana University.The woman plans to write her thesis on the role of the Westmount library in the Quebec library Women to hear E.May, lawyer Members of the Women's Canadian Club of Montreal will have as their guest speaker on Monday Elizabeth May.lawyer and environmentalist Her subject will be \u2018\u2018Environmental Policy: The Role of Citizen Involvement.\u201d The meeting begins at 2 pm in the Royal Bank Auditorium at Place Ville Marie.Coffee is served at 1:15 pm.WY Ea community.For Miss Dietrich, it demonstrates the historical importance that Westmount and its library may have in Quebec culture.\u201cWestmount has always excited interest in people from both the area and outside,\u201d she says.\u201cThis collection helps maintain that.\u201d © The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, March 28, 1985 - 19 Fashion dialectic at St George's Design and composition are the themes of an evening fashion show, \u201cFashion Dialectic,\u201d to be held at St George's School of Montreal, 3100 The Boulevard, next Tuesday at 7:30 pm.Over 45 students are to model fashions from 14 Montreal stores as well as creations by St George's students Rasmus Schionning, James Di Salvio and Josh Dorsey.Merav Jacobs, Glenda Hersh, Lewis Cohen and Josh Dorsey are co-chairmen of the event.Radio and newspaper personality Douglas Leopold is to be master of ceremonies.Tickets are available at the school.For further information, call 937-9289.Hannah and Jerry Solomon and staff wish all their customers and friends a very happy Easter and Passover Drop in for your holiday food selection I Van Horne Bagel \u201d 5205 Sherbrooke West at Marlowe 482-5943 x 12 a iv Van Horne Bagel Ak for the table from deli and cheeses to bread and bagels A complete carry-home cuisine, including fine gourmet products If you've nibbled at others, come and feast with us at Van Horne Bagel™ BAKING ON THE PREMISES 5205 Sherbrooke West at Marlowe Hrd 482-5943 | SR Qu !

uninterested in lobbying the Quebec government to finance new low-cost housing projects for seniors.\u201cThe city expresses the view that this is not a city concern,\u2019\u2019 he said.According to Dr Nugent, nearly one-fifth of Westmount\u2019s population is over 65 years old, and the increasing need for housing space for the elderly is not satisfied by residences such as Manoir West- mount and Belvedere House.Dr Nugent, who acts as medical consultant for the Manoir, noted the residence\u2019s waiting list has about 300 people.He added that applicants might have to wait two to three years to be admitted.For those needing medical supervision, Dr Nugent said, the Manoir is of no use since it is licensed only as a residence.In Dr Nugent's view, elderly residents of Westmount are not being given the same opportunity as those of Montreal, where the city has helped to establish apartment complexes for seniors.Need unseen \u201cIn the city of Westmount, no one has tried to get funding for a comparable situation,\u201d said Dr Nugent.\u201cThe city has not perceived this as a particular need.\u201d Several of the seniors listening to Dr Nugent agreed with the need for increased

council meetings?\" inquired one centre member.Seniors also expressed doubts that city council would change its view of the issue, despite lobbying by the elderly.One woman suggested that seniors would have to wait for the next municipal election in order to be heard.Dr Nugent, though, suggested more immediate action.\u201cIf you feel strongly that these are valid needs,\u201d he said, \u2018\u2018then, as a group of seniors, it's up to you to get together and make a presentation to council.\u201d One woman, agreeing with Dr Nugent, added: \u2018If we don't do it, then nobody's going to do it.\u201d After the meeting, seniors discussed the possibility of pursuing the matter further.City council is expected to discuss Ald Aitken\u2019s report at a meeting in April.Preventive health becomes important In aging community By ROB SOUTHCOTT \u201cQur Aging Community,\u201d the lecture and workshop series co- organized by the Westmount Senior Citizens\u2019 Centre, continued Tuesday night with information about community health efforts for the elderly.Dr Jacqueline McClaran, acting director of the gerontology program at the Montreal General Hospital, spoke to about 30

regular review of their health,\u201d said Dr McClaran.\u201cIt does pay to look, because we often find things that we can treat.\u201d Dr McClaran works with a team at the hospital that carries out gerontological assessments in the community.Its goal is to assess an older person\u2019s overall health and living situation and to make recommendations that might improve it.\u2018Myths of aging\u2019 Dr McClaran indicated that such a program might help overcome \u2018\u201c\u2018the myths of aging.\u201d \u201cBoth old and young people have a bias about old people,\u201d said Dr McClaran, noting that elderly individuals often see people their age as having problems while not perceiving their own.Most elderly people, said Dr Mc- Claran, are living interesting and independent lives in the community.She suggested, though, that community services, such as the hospital's team or local health care nurses, might find \u201chidden problems\u201d that the elderly themselves might not recognize.Dr McClaran indicated this is specially important in areas such as Westmount, Notre Dame de Grace and downtown Montreal, where there is a very high proportion of elderly residents.Continued on next page Synagogue drop-in centre treat for seniors The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, March 28, 1985 - 21 The Congregation Shaar Hashomayim drop-in centre for elderly people has been a huge success since it opened on July 1, 1984, according to organizers.Every Wednesday morning, up to 60 people between the ages of 60 and 90 come to participate in crafts such as beading, flower arranging, art work and knitting.After a nice lunch, there is a cultural program and a card party and bingo in the afternoon.Westmounter Naomi Kassie raised funds for the centre and founded it with the assistance of Bunny Kirsch, director of the Leisure Institute of the synagogue; Dorothy Block, a social worker; and Jack Kaufman, a former Westmounter who lived in this city for 51 years.There were 45 elderly people on deck when THE WESTMOUNT EXAMINER visited the drop-in centre last week.\u201cOriginally it was an eight- week pilot project but it proved so popular we have continued it,\u201d said Mrs Block.\u201cI love it here,\u201d said Sadie Victor, 417 Côte St Antoine road, \u2018\u2018I don't miss a week.Lunch is only $2 and a car picks you up and takes you

we get are for placement (in institutions) and it can be too late,\u2019 she said.\u201cWe're into warehousing at this point.\" The lecture series will continue on April 9 at 7:45 pm in West- mount

items, totalling some $2,600, belonged to three different persons.They apparently had been left about 8:30 pm with an attendant who did not stay until the end of the party.They were discovered missing at 1:30 am, Sunday.The wildcat fur coat belonged to a waitress at the party; the other items to guests.By JOAN CAPREOL founders of the Hadassah movement, and Fanny Rosenberg, whose son was medical director of the Maimonides Hospital.Lost wife William Kaplansky, 86, father of art gallery owner Elca London, was in attendance.He lost his wife last year after 56 years of marriage.Mrs Block, who got her BSW from McGill University in 1980 and her MA in counselling in 1982, said she is very concerned about some Westmounters \u2018\u2018because money doesn\u2019t provide for the kind of care one needs or takes away from feelings about being isolated or lonely.\u201cWe really try to highlight the holidays every year.We try to integrate older people with the students who attend the Solomon Schechter school here.There are some handicapped and impaired people at the centre.\u201cWe encourage non-Jewish people \u2014 everyone \u2014 to come.\"The needs of the elderly are very obvious except to people in power.We need more residences, day care and nursing homes and at-home facilities.\u201cWe desperately need facilities for people who can no longer remain in their homes.I feel it's very sad that people in a community like Westmount end up for nursing care miles away from the community they grew up in, lived in all their lives, and supported.\u201d There are many volunteers in the project.Westmounter Freda Chinks was present at the drop-in centre.Sonia Aranoff and Marlene Marks are Mrs Block's assistants.West- mounter Cecile Davis is the registrar.Antiquités Phylls Friedman

27 Court orders demolition on Selby street By ROB SOUTHCOTT Officials at city hall expect to have a row of decaying buildings on Selby street demolished sooner than had been expected.Bruce St Louis, the city's director of services, has succeeded in getting a demolition order for the structures at 190-206 Selby, which were damaged severely in a Sept 5, 1981, fire.A judge in Quebec Superior Court granted an order Tuesday.Since the fire, the property has changed hands several times and its present owner, 125466 Canada Ine, has refused the city\u2019s recommendation to demolish the buildings.\u201cNow, as far as we're concerned, we want immediate demolition,\" Mr St Louis told THE EXAMINER, indicating that he hoped to be able to serve the order as soon as possible.\u2018As soon as we get it served, we'll give them 24 hours to get going.\u201d If the owner fails to demolish the buildings promptly, Mr St Louis said, the city might consider having it done and billing the owner.City inspectors recently concluded that the walls of the buildings had deteriorated to the point that they might collapse, possibly injuring neighboring residents.Three weeks ago, Mr St Louis received city council's permission to have the walls reinforced, a temporary check of the danger while he sought a demolition order.Due to a change in court schedules, the city was heard in court earlier than had been expected.Mr St Louis said that with the granting of the order, city solicitors and court officers were attempting to expedite preparation of the demolition writ.WANTED ON DEMANDE MRS.Sheila S.Jacoby is looking to buy your linens, costume jewellery, decorative items, paperweights.Please call in complete confidence at anytime.487-9496.ACHETE outils de toutes sortes, machiniste, menuisier, mécanicien, etc.Payons comptant.351-6337.LOST PERDU J LOST, black and white 7-month-old male cat, vicinity area of Clarke and Anwoth, Saturday, March 23rd.Reward.Day 848-6204; eve.935-6452, Joy.=\u2014Tooiute\u2014 WORK WANTED 5 RAYA HOUSE cleaner available for spring cleaning or general maintenance.739-6522 Shuny.= 2 NOW OPEN HARMONY HOME A quality retirement residence, communal living for the elderly.24 hour care, provided by professional staff.sit us soon.By appointment only.all: 485-1267, 484-2342 RS VU -

calling all over the still snow-covered West- mount Summit last Sunday.Just up from the Lookout, the familiar scolding notes of a robin rang out and a bird in fresh, spring plumage with a bright, brick- red breast flew up from a melted spot on the bank and took refuge in a lilac bush.This may not be the main migration stream from the south.Robins have been off-stage all winter.In a February snowstorm, I saw four robins wading into the icy water of a small open ditch on Ile Bizard.Also in February, I heard them on Île Perrot and friends told me of seeing a group of about 30 robins feeding in January on the heavy crop of mountain ash berries way above Ste Agathe.Last week in Steinberg\u2019s, Mary Rankin, who lives not far from the Summit, was puzzled about a robin she'd seen near her home.What could robins subsist on with the lawns still covered with snow?It seems robins only need protein, like earthworms, when they are raising their young.Other times, they can get along on fruits.And.of course, if they don\u2019t migrate far southwards, they save a lot of energy and escape many of the dangers of migration.Also, they can return to choice spots like Westmount Summit early in the season.Strange winter With the heavy crops of berries and cones, it's been a strange winter in many ways.As I turned to go into a little, wooded path on the Summit that Sunday.chickadees sang their spring song in some birch trees.But stopping to look at them, I heard the soft trill of redpolls and watched a whole group land for a moment in another nearby birch.I just had time to register their bright red polls \u2014 like a little, round, scarlet cap right on the top of their heads \u2014 and the black under their chins when they took off in a bouncing flight southwards.Did they think it still was winter?Instead of returning north to their breeding grounds, did they keep on flying south?Walking down from the Summit I saw a large group feeding in front of a house with a big planting of evergreen trees.The trees had a heavy crop of cones and the birds seemed busy gathering the seeds on the ground.Then they would fly up to the trees again.Further along one of the paths on the Summit, a small, red phase screech owl wasn't making any noise but sunned itself in the bole of an old tree.Crows cawed noisily and starlings made creaking noises worthy of an old Hitchcock film.Distinctive scream Then a red-shouldered hawk\u2019s distinctive scream rang out \u2014 a harsh, descending \u2018\u2018keeer.\"\u201d He flew just over some far trees and the other birds fell silent.Then in the stillness I heard a series of nasal whistles \u2014 not someone calling his dog, but a white-breasted nuthatch.He wasn't far away in his clean- looking white and blue plumage, working busily away, poking into the bark of a tree, going downwards.But maybe spring really is on the way.I didn't see any more of the large flocks of purple finches that I've noticed every time I go cross-country skiing and that have been coming every day to my feeders \u2014 six at a time of these lovely raspberry finches.Could you ask for a nicer winter?The Western house finches, with their brown caps and head and bibs a deep red (a darker color \u2014 not the bright scarlet of a redpoll), were to be seen throughout the cold weather.The purple finches, like the pine siskins, seemed to relish my thistle seed.The siskins still are coming to the feeder, but two song sparrows that were there all through the cold of January have just left.It must be spring.And to clinch it, I heard the familiar, cheery caroling of a robin right out my back door.Easter bunnies better stuffed advises CSPCA Citizens are being urged to buy cuddly stuffed animal toys for Easter this year rather than baby
