[" Fire-PSU report reveals cuts, savings to come By LAUREEN SWEENEY Vol.LXH, No.31 Westmount, Quebec, Thursday, August 2, 1990 50¢ There's a wee spot o\u2019 trouble brewing ! .+ 3 InrmiaL steps to integrate Westmount\u2019s fire and public security departments could save the city $300,000 a year but reduce security patrols, it was proposed in a report revealed this week.The plan would restructure the fire department and combine management of both forces under a single director of protective services, according to the long-awaited merger report.PAUL FORTIN \u2018Approves report\u2019 City rents station parking Westmount has rented the West- mount train station parking lot to help ease anticipated parking problems during the reconstruction and beautification of Victoria avenue, city officials confirmed Tuesday.The city reached an agreement with CP Rail last week, after several weeks of negotiation, to rent the lot for three months at a cost of $1,000 per month, starting yesterday, Aug 1.Construction work on Victoria avenue between Sherbrooke and St Catherine streets is scheduled to start on Monday.A permit system will be used to give area businesses use of the parking lot, according to Bruce St Louis, city operations manager.At press time, he could not specify how the permits would be allocated.He did say area office buildings will be in dire need of parking.INSIDE.The expected cost savings would result from filling a total of five existing and upcoming firefighter vacancies from the ranks of public safety officers who would not be replaced.This would reduce patrols of four officers to three.R These are listed as the first steps in merging the two forces to streamline services, bolster firefighting strength and reduce payroll and overtime costs.\u201cI'm accepting the report as is,\u201d said Councillor Paul Fortin, who has been overseeing the integration plan.\u201cWe're going ahead with the first steps.\u201d Success of the merger \u2018depends on who the players are,\u201d he said in making public the report prepared by city operations manager Bruce St Louis.Two of these players are expected to be named at Tuesday's city council meeting with the appointment of both a new fire chief and a fire training officer, Mr Fortin confirmed.Continued on page six Marianne Zalzal, Westmount's senior civil engineer, said one office building alone, 376 Victoria avenue, will need spaces for 50 to 60 cars.The number of spaces at the CP Rail lot at St Catherine street and Victoria avenue is not yet known.Ward councillor Stuart Robertson has expressed concern residents on Winchester and Somerville avenues would have to put up with increased parking on their streets.Fred Caluori, Westmount's director of public works, said businesses will remain accessible throughout the work, scheduled to last two months.Mr St Louis said the city rented the parking lot for three months in case of construction delays.The plan to

reconstructed for close to $750,000 while an additional $200,000 has been budgeted for street lights, waste baskets, benches, planters and additional trees.Sidewalks will be widened to nine feet.At intersections between Sherbrooke street and de Maisonneuve avenue, sidewalks will protrude by an additional eight feet for esthetic reasons and to create \u201cprotected parking lanes.\u201d Road width will be reduced by seven feet.At least 50 skyline honey-locust trees will be planted in the extensions at street corners and in the paving stone at the edge of the sidewalks.Grills will protect

taxes to cost Westmounters $2 million more; city loses $85,000 Westmount property owners are in for a shock when they open their school tax bills, scheduled to arrive at the end of August.An increase of 127.5 percent in the tax rate means school boards will take an additional $2 million from the pockets of Westmount taxpayers this fall to compensate for cutbacks in provincial funding, city finance officials said.The jump in tax rate from $.068 to $.1547 per hundred dollars of valuation would increase school taxes on the average Westmount valuation of $380,000 to $590 from $260.\u201cIt\u2019s scandalous,\u201d said Councillor Peter Trent, council's finance expert, after receiving a report Tuesday from city hall detailing effects of the tax on Westmounters.He said the government of Quebec obviously ignored the protest of municipalities across the province by allowing school boards to make up their shortfall in funding from the pockets of already overburdened property owners.To make matters worse, he said, this is an increase \u201cafter income tax,\u2019 money which in the last 10 years has been paid largely through general taxation.PEN NE 4 EL ye By LAUREEN SWEENEY \u201cI'm

dwindling By CHARLES ABRAMOVICI Odds are there won't be ducklings in Westmount Park this year.There is only one duck left sitting on eggs now.The rest of the eggs, which were scattered about the little duck island in the duck pond, have been picked up by city employees because they were neglected by the ducks, park superintendent Jean- Pierre Ricard said Tuesday.Why didn't some parent ducks sit on their eggs?\u201cI don't know,\" Mr Ricard said.\u201cI guess they didn't feel like it.\u201d Louis McCann, the wildlife director for the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, also wasn\u2019t sure why the duckies didn\u2019t sit on their eggs.But one thing is for sure.If nothing sits on them, the eggs won't hatch.Mr McCann theorized that perhaps activity in the park might have disturbed the ducks.But on the other hand, he said, the ducks are domesticated and should be used to that kind of stuff.Taking the eggs away was the only thing to do, Mr McCann said.If broken, they would emit an odious odor.He also said the eggs might not have been fertile to begin with.Sometimes the females just lay eggs without copulating with males.\u201cThis could happen with ducks,\u201d Mr McCann said.\u201cIt\u2019s not out of the ordinary.\u201d Le Manoir Antiques Inc.By discriminating selection we are able to offer you the highest quality antiques at reasonable prices.166 Route 117,

island in Westmount Park did copulate with a male duck, it\u2019s still getting kind of late in the season to have baby ducks, Mr McCann said.Hesaid the incubation period fora duck egg is about 30 days.Usually wild ducks have their babies earlier in the year.It\u2019s harder to raise ducks in the fall when the wild ones are getting ready for migration.\u201cBut maybe the domestic ducks\u2019 sense of season is different from their wild counterparts,\u201d he said.The city rents the ducks from a farm.Last year was the first time ducklings, five of them, were hatched in the duck pond, Mr Ricard said.Both Mr Ricard and Mr McCann implied that the conditions in the duck pond were not conducive to duck hatching.Mr McCann said the key to hatching is for a duck to sit on the eggs to keep them warm.Tuesday afternoon, an EXAMINER reporter observed that the last nest of eggs on the duck island in Westmount Park was unattended.It\u2019s easy to place a classified ad in THE EXAMINER.Simply

Westmount'\u2019s floral clock is no Timex.It took a licking and recently stopped ticking.\u201cIt needs a good overhaul,\u201d expert clockmaker Roger Wiler.said Mr Wiler cares for the clock in Westmount city hall tower and has been solicited to repair the famous floral clock on Sherbrooke street at Lansdowne avenue.According to greenhouse foreman Howard Neill, it's the first time in about 10 years the clock, which is at least 70 years old (but no one knows for sure), has suffered a major breakdown.The clock has stopped before.But according to parks superintendent Jean-Pierre Ricard, it\u2019s the first time in 12 years an expert had to be called in.Mr Neill said other stoppages By CHARLES ABRAMOVICI were handled by city employees within a day or so.But this breakdown is a doozy.First of all, the main shaft at the centre of the clock is twisted.So go to the store and buy a new one, you say?And while you're at it see if you can buy a Rambler or a Hudson.The problem is the clock, which is propelled by an electric motor, has Model T Ford gears as its drivetrain.\u201cAnd there are no Model Ts around,\u201d Mr Neill pointed out.So a new eight-inch-long shaft is being made by a machinist, a friend of Mr Wiler.The duo is scheduled to pick up the twisted shaft today.So what else is wrong with the clock?The gears have to be machined and Even if there's no doubt, call the firefighters out By LAUREEN SWEENEY Don't do it yourself when it comes to firefighting.This lesson was learned the hard way last Friday by one Westmount resident who ended up with a basement full of smoke by trying to extinguish a balcony fire at 397 Côte St Antoine road, fire officials said.The fire began when painters used a propane torch to remove old paint from the porch over the front door of the home near Belmont crescent.\u201cThey tried to control it for 45 minutes before calling us,\u201d said Lieutenant Barry Coates who investigated the fire.Painters and the owner poured water on the balcony from a garden hose, he said.They even drilled holes in the wood to get at the fire, unaware that smoke was working into the home through support beams in From the finest European breads

not known how much smoke damage was caused inside.Fire damage to the balcony was estimated at $1,000.Painter's torches have caused many similar fires over the years in Westmount homes where old dry wood trim and balconies ignited easily from sparks and heat.\u201cWe recommend the use of electric heat guns for removing paint, since they don't have an open flame,\u201d Capt Morrison said.FOR

in fact, it has been months since there was any effective administrative running of the city from that quarter.Mayor May Cutler and Councillor Peter Trent have done their best to keep things on track.However, we have been on the verge of uttering some sharp criticism of the lack of succession.Indeed, we already have done so over such booboos as letting Fire Chief William Timmons leave on the basis of hearsay (and likely biased) criticism of his abilities without actually weighing his qualities.This and other decision- takings should have been with the participation of a new director general, who must live with them.Unfortunately, that situation likely is to obtain for a while longer as professional head-hunters are put to work finding an interim director general with the dual duties of running the city and training Mr St Louis.For such a position council has the right idea of looking for someone with proven leadership capabilities, perhaps recently retired and looking for a temporary outlet for his or her talents.We must hope that someone happens just to be lurking around, looking for such a challenge.The right person could domuchtohelp Mr St Louis, not in the nitty-gritty of municipal affairs about which Mr St Louis clearly would be the wiser, but in giving a fresh and efficient view to the way in which city hall should operate and perhaps making some tough structural and personnel changes while leaving Mr St Louis\u2019 hands clean.However, if that search proves protracted council could do worse than accelerate Mr St Louis\u2019 appointment, perhaps as acting director general with right of succession.While an experienced mentor could steer the young trainee over the odd shoal, management skills are acquired by managing.Mr Louis has acquired much already.The heir apparent already has shown clearly a mature sense of what is required of him in this remark last week to THE EXAMINER: \u201cWe are public servants.We all have an obligation to keep council and the public informed and provide them with good services, not just at management level.They pay us good money to do this.\u201d Those are not mere words.They connote promise and the right attitude toward a challenge.Alright, council! Okay, St Louis! 1Say! THE destiny of any nation at any given time depends on the opinions of its young men under five-and-twenty.\u2014 Johann Wolfgang von Goethe our Mayor Her Worship May Cutler says.Sad cycle of revolutions REMEMBER the old Whittier poem?Of all sad words of tongue or pen/The saddest are these: \u201cIt might have been!\u201d Well, it\u2019s not true.There are sadder.I would change the last line to: \u201cThe saddest are these: it should not have been.\u201d To have seen the dream come true, to have celebrated it with joy, and then to see it disintegrate.That's sad beyond sadness.I was thinking of this during the past week as the Cuban revolutionary dream of the good and decent life for all dissolved.I was in Havana three years ago and I wondered then how much wearier and dustier life would get before the end, the end being the end of Soviet subsidy.It was heartbreak island.Havana with its vast boulevards and mansions was once the richest city in the Caribbean.Now 30 years after the revolution, it was a city of broken pillars, crumbling balconies, chipped carvings, rusting ironwork, peeling paint, courtyards with fountains long dried up and laundry draped everywhere and anywhere todry.Poverty of drabness The poor owned it all now.One could imagine their pleasure at moving into such magnificence.But to walk its streets and peer into the dark interiors was to see a poverty of another sort, the poverty of drabness, where families seemed to sit day and night before a TV set as the only diversion.Everywhere was scaffolding but little sign of activity.Everywhere work seemed to have started and been dropped.As if the whole of Havana ran out of labor or materials at once.Students, it was said, were repairing the old public buildings but only here and there was the occasional wheelbarrow in evidence.Students had, after all, built an incredible park in the first great fervor of the revolution.But how long can enthusiasm last?People waited in long lineups at grocers for their rations of milk, meat and rice and at druggists for free medicine.In the hotels the indifference of employees must have made the many Soviet tourists feel at home.Could one blame the staff?Perhaps not.In my hotel room the utilitarian wall-to- wall carpeting had balls of dust and bits of dirt all over it.I remembered a report given me by a friend from China.She watched the chambermaid vacuum, moving the machine like a robot, going over the carpet quickly and only once.If dirt was not picked up, thereit stayed.Ah, Ithought, I guess the girl in Cuba does the same thing.The next day, however, when I saw her do my room, I realized I was wrong.She did not have a vacuum at all, only a broom.No one starves now But no one starves in Cuba now, I was told, and there was a good health scheme.I was taken to visit a model clinic and a nursery school.It was December 1987, but I felt I was walking the same path as those visitors to the Soviet Union during the 1920s and '30s.One Saturday morning I made a trip across town to visit the flat, now a museum, where Castro and a handful of fighters had plotted the revolution.I climbed the apartment stairs to the top floor to find the door locked, without explanation and in contradiction to the sign.No one else was around.No one else was that curious.Did no one care any more?At the airport I had a real déjà vu of the Soviet Union I had visited.Having risen at 3 am to arrive dutifully for take-off on time, I found no plane \u2014 noran explanation.Only a shrug.After 81/2 hours of peering hopefully through airport windows that had not been washed in recorded time, I left Cuba wondering, how long, oh Lord, how long?Castro meant well Yet I felt sorry for Castro.He meant well.Perhaps he too was weary, for he did not turn up for the annual celebration of his Cuban revolution on New Year\u2019s Day.\u201cShould not have been?\u201d The revolution should not have been.What should have been?Simple in retrospect.Amid all the decaying magnificence of Havana, I mar- velled at the stupidity and cupidity of the gambling czars that once controlled it.Could they not have spared a little of their winnings to feed the poor in the countryside, developed a humane government and staved off the revolution?How little it would have required in that large treasure island of superb climate, good farmland and good people.Hannah Arendt, thou should be living at this hour.What would you say now about revolutions: the Soviet Union beginnings you understood so well, and now the Cuban?Perhaps you would have a chapter on the naiveté of revolutions.Is it just that they don't work in the 20th century, as they worked in the 18th when the Americans and the French were into them?What is not naive in politics?Perhaps it\u2019s recognizing that there is no quick fix, no system of government, not even democracy, that is foolproof.Perhaps it\u2019s realizing that all systems must be adjusted continually to needs and possibilities.Change can come slowly as long as one feels it is coming.! tremble for Eastern Europe if its people think democracy per se is a cure-all; it\u2019s only the best we've been able to come up with so far.And it needs continual vigilance and adjusting.Castro is at the moment asking for opinions from the people of Cuba.It's a good sign.I hope changes for the good can come there without another revolution.our M.N.A.Richard B.Holden says.What to do about Oka?MANY wrongs have led to the impasse at Oka and Châteauguay.It serves no useful purpose to belabor the SQ for their ill- conceived attack on the Mohawk barricade; or to bemoan the fact that heavily armed, hooded goons are trying to dictate settlement terms.Sally Aitken, our conscience at city hall, called me last week to discuss what we, as concerned citizens, can or should do.I have discussed the issue with many people including Pierre Cardinal, the MNA for Châ- teauguay.The consensus seems to be patience and calm.From a humanitarian point of view, the Red Cross is the principal agency allowed to get food and medicine through and around various obstacles including overturned police cars, abandoned trucks, piles of dirt, concrete blocks, armed police officers and various and sundry women, children and warriors who man the roadblocks.I believe we should support the Red Cross and to that end I am sending them $1,000.The Equality Party has been discussing its role in the dispute.We were toying with the idea of taking food and supplies to the non-combattants.But we didn\u2019t want to look as silly as the NDP\u2019s awkward Audrey who was told to take her Steinberg cart to another check-out counter.Before we do anything we are going to meet with John Ciaccia, Chief Norton and others so that we have all the facts.Jacques Parizeau's call to arms has a very hypocritical ring to it.If he and his acolytes sincerely believe in sovereignty, then it should be as legitimate for the so-called first nations as it is for la nation québécoise.Moreover, the PQ\u2019s position is, I believe, racially based.Not only are they anti-Mo- hawk, their fundamental position is anti- English.I suggest that the PQ would be far less aggressive if the native peoples involved were francophones with a provincial rather than a federal bent.* * * Let me close with a word about federal politics.I know I was not elected to mouth off about Brian Mulroney and Jean Chrétien but Ido vote and (sometimes) pay taxes; ergo my right to comment.It now appears that the back-stabber Bouchard will be a major player in Ottawa over the next couple of years.He is an interesting individual and should not be written off as some kind of crazy.Recently he wrote to Michael Meighen, two-time Tory candidate in Westmount.He tried to explain the agony of ourtimes and to justify his treachery toward their mutual Laval classmate Brian M.What is peculiarly ironic about the letter is that it was written in English.Bizarre n\u2019est ce pas?Amt ins PT + oF or hed < Sa + it ul par the pall Cut oft thei whi littl said Que ernn app $2,0 ipal ofQ Vill po SSSR PES PI SEEN on ree ora 3] The Westmount Bxaminer

\u201cWhen you are on a road or street which has a lot of traffic do not get nervous or panicky, saying to yourself, \u2018I'm sure to bump into something,\u2019 because you are more sure to do that thing than when you \u2018keep a cool head.Never hitch a ride onto cars or other fast moving vehicles.Because when you let go you are liable to bump into an onpassing vehicle.Never go over 15 miles an

tent from these local sewing center directions out of 51/2 yards of cotton, a card-table and an ordinary dime store plunger.The plunger, fixed by its rubber end in the center of the card-table, supports the top of the tent.Dye an old cotton sheet or length of factory cotten in a gay circus colour, shocking pink, chartreuse green or purple.Or use brilliant- ly-striped denim.\u201d Notable fact: \u201cOne cubic foot of solid coal will generate enough electricity to operate a frozen-food locker for 31 days.\u201d Twenty-five Years Ago July 30, 1965 THE EXAMINER ran a tongue-in-cheek quiz Are You a Lovable Husband?Men were instructed to answer yes or no to the following: \u201cDo you beat your wife once a week so she won't forget who\u2019s boss?Do you think your wife has an easy life with nothing to do but stay home, cook, wash the floors and take care of the children?Do you think your wife should be limited to 25 cents a week to spend on herself?Do you make an effort to be as untidy as possible so your wife will have to pick up after you?\u201d At the end, the quiz instructed: \u201cCheck your answers, and, if you have answered yes to any question, change it to no.\u201d

prohibiting the free dispensing of plastic bags.\u201d You Say Seller of railway cottage pleased with award win My congratulations to Charles Mappin, winner of the Association of Quebec Regional English Media best news story of the year our M.P.David Berger says.2 Whither tin plates?USED by soldiers in the Great War and more recently by Meals on Wheels to deliver hot meals to the elderly, tin plates with covers seem to have gone the way of the buggy whip.Elizabeth Walker, a volunteer with Ascension Advent Meals on Wheels, explained to award for his July 27, 1989 article titled \u201cPosing as private buyers, developers try to buy up heritage railway cottages.\u201d This was a major story involving a prominent Westmount family, Geoffrey Chambers and his parents, Gretta and Egan Chambers, and the giant CP Rail.CP Rail\u2019s public image in Westmount and Montreal has been irreversibly tarnished.The TRAINS (Track Residents Against Insensitive Neighborhood Schemes) association which I founded after selling my railway cottage will keep a close vigil on the Glen Yards development to ensure they don\u2019t desecrate it.Again, congratulations Charles Mappin.May his successor, Charles Abramovici, or Laureen Sweeney, be the winner in 1990 under a more pleasant scenario.Dennis Kidd 470 de Chambly street LAVAL PQ H7TW 4K1 me that the tin plates used until recently by Meals on Wheels reminded her of the ones used by her father in 1914.They were round tin plates with covers, and were known as les gamelles des soldats.Each day women from the village, known as les vivandières, would bring a hot meal to the soldiers in the trenches.They would bang on the plates, telling other soldiers that it was mealtime.Meals on Wheels used similar plates with covers.Since the bottom of the plates fitted neatly into the cover of the plate below, they could be stacked without slipping.They were not only practical, they were environmentally friendly.\u201cWe are against pollution but we are forced to use disposable foil plates because the tin plates are no longer available,\u2019 said Mrs Walker.I happened on this intriguing story last Friday when I delivered a New Horizons cheque to Ascension Advent Meals on Wheels.Founded in 1966, Ascension Advent was located in the Church of the Advent on Wood avenue.Having outgrown the premises available in the church, it is now moving to a new home in Greene Avenue Community Centre.The government's cheque will help pay for the relocation.Friday was an exceptionally hot day.Nonetheless seven volunteers went about their work with love and care as they do twice a week all year round.In addition to Mrs Walker, Friday's cast included Maureen Hanley, the president, Mary O'Neil, Deborah Cleyn, Deborah Reid, Evelyn de Bar- bieri and Leni Legler.Up to now, Ascension Advent has served about 20 seniors.In their new home they should be able to serve 30.But there's a catch.They need more volunteers.So if you care to volunteer your services, or if you happen to know where to get some new tin plates, get in touch with Ascension Advent.SCHOOL.Fleuris contest this year was part of a boycott of provincial events.continued from page one it until April 1.The change in tax collection was part of a municipal protest against the government\u2019s new policy.\u2018\u2019The truculence of Quebec is appalling,\u201d said an angry Mayor May Cutler, who also decried the attitude of the government.\u201cWe protested to them and they're just doing exactly what they please.\u201d It was obvious municipalities had little clout to \u201cyell like hell,\u201d she said.\u201cBut I think when citizens all over Quebec open their tax bills the government will be in for a shock.\u201d Westmount city council recently approved an expenditure of some $2,000 for its share of the joint municipal protest organized by the Union of Quebec Municipalities.The city\u2019s withdrawal from the Villes, Villages et Campagnes Mr Trent said he'll take his concerns to the city council meeting Tuesday night.Information obtained by the city indicates the Island School Council, which is levying the tax, is scheduled to send out tax bills the end of August for payment Sept 30.Technical problems, however, may delay the dates, said city treasurer Daniel Décarie yesterday.The total amount expected tocome from Westmount taxpayers for the school tax year 1990-1991 is about $3.5 million, he said.This compares with $1.5 million the previous year.Wall hits car A portion of plywood around a construction site at 3219 The Boulevard fell on a car Tuesday, July 24, public safety officers said.The vehicle was not reported to be damaged.Burglars beat the heat doing break-ins Burglars weren't basking at the beach during the weekend heat wave, it seems.They were too busy breaking into Westmount homes.The rash of six break-ins began Friday night when three were reported within an hour in the same neighborhood, police said.It was not known if they were related.At a home on Olivier avenue, a burglar alarm scared off a would-be intruder when it sounded at 9:15 pm when a basement window was broken.It was heard by a neighbor who called police.Two blocks north, on Mountain avenue, another alarm sounded at 9:50 pm after someone broke in by cutting a screen and forcing open the window.Drawers and jewel boxes were emptied and the suspect managed to escape before police arrived.By LAUREEN SWEENEY It was not immediately known what was taken.In another incident reported at 10:15 pm, a suspect broke a second storey window at the rear of a home on Anwoth road where valuable jewelry, cash and a purse were reportedly taken.On Saturday morning, two more homes were hit.In a house on Murray avenue, a woman awoke to noises at 6:30 am.She went downstairs and saw someone pass by outside the window.An outer door had been opened but no one had entered.A few hours later a resident of Kitchener avenue discovered someone had gone into her house overnight and taken a wallet from her purse that was near the door.Police said it appeared the door had not been properly closed.The wallet was found, minus money, in a nearby garbage can.On Sunday night, a break-in was discovered at an apartment at 1 Rose- mount avenue.Cash, foreign coins and Lebanese gold jewelry were reported stolen.It is not known how the front door was opened, police said.Once inside, however, the suspect used a knife to open a briefcase.Earlier in the week a suspect entered an unlocked basement window on Sherbrooke near Metcalfe, making off with a television set and a VCR.A sound system was moved but not taken.The incident was reported on Tuesday, July 24.The place was broken into through an unlocked window. 6 - The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, August 2,

* Assume responsibility for the city\u2019s administrative traffic committee; e Co-ordinate services with Montreal Urban Community police; e Work on mutual aid fire system replanning; and, e Revitalize the volunteer Civil Protection Unit and increase its useas a support group.The greatest challenge facing the new management team is to educate both firefighters and public safety officers to the \u201clogic\u201d of a more complete merger, St Louis wrote.The second step is to fill firefighting vacancies with public safety officers to address \u201ca serious manpower shortage.\u201d The report concludes by asking council to provide fire and public security personnel, now in a state of limbo, with a commitment on where they might stand regarding jobs under merger plans.This prompted Mayor May Cutler to visit both departments three weeks ago to assure personnel no one would be out of a job though their positions might change.7 ALBERT GALE REAL ESTATE, ) KANATA, ONTARIO offers these unique properties Stone manor on waterfront!

of peaceful co-existence, isn\u2019t it time to take a break from beatnik politics?\u201cAll that is happening is talk and ambiance.When you look at what\u2019s going on behind the talk, there\u2019s

large reduction, that would signal that action is being taken,\u201d he said.\u201cAnything less than 90 percent would not be impressive.Once people see they don\u2019t need that 10 percent, then get

week, Mr Zimel- stern said the local service club wants to increase membership by 12 to 15 members this year.The Westmount Rotary Club now has 57 members.Mr Zimelstern said the club loses members for various reasons including, old age, moving and business commitments.Traditionally, new members have been asked to join by Rotarians.Potential members must go before a nominating committee and meet other Rotary criteria.In an effort to increase membership, Mr Zimelstern asked three Ro- tarians to small talks about themselves and their jobs.Klaus Bremer said he was not asked to join Rotary but asked to join.He was a Shriner.He did not have time to speak about the \u201chighly charged business of being an electrician.\u201d Hogan Kierulf, a realtor, spoke of how Westmount Realties and the

Shakespeare\u2019s writing as though he was one of their good friends, someone they went to school with, perhaps.They respect his work mightily, but that doesn't stop them from having a good time with it.So even Macbeth has its lighter moments, and The Comedy of Errors gives the cast plenty of chance to try all kids of mugging, satire, acrobatics and other antics.Believable portrait In Macbeth, Bruce Dinsmore gives the title role a believable portrait of a man driven mad by ambition and his expediency in fulfilling it.And Pierre Boudreau makes an effective Banquo, especially after he becomes a ghost.Scott Nichol is a warm and human Duncan, Daniel Brochu \u2014 still a Dawson student \u2014 deserves mention for his crystal-clear enunciation in his role as Malcolm and x 5 3 ) A PRIVATE NURSING HOME The ultimate in nursing care and dignified living for the elderly and chronically ill for over 20 years.Luxurious new suites now ready for occupancy.MANOIR PIE PIERREFONDS MANOR INC.oo ig

plagued with visions of a victim, during a dinner party, she delivers \u201cYou have displaced the mirth,\u201d with such a portrayal of wifely rage that a wave of laughter washes through the audience, breaking the tension of Macbeth\u2019s raging descent into madness.Alain Goulem is a comfortable, dependable Macduff, and his bewildered grief when he learns his wife and children have been murdered moves us all.The witches \u2014 ah, the witches.They are a family of pill-popping street people, malevolent and vicious.They make you want to avoid the late-night Métro and other underground places.The sound design, by Michael O'Hara, with some input from resident musical director Jennifer More- house, is wonderful.It sets, enhances and sustains the mood of foreboding and terror throughout.But really, how much did the audience like it?Well, the performances are free, and no one is pressured to make a donation, though the company announces they'd be welcome.1 peeped into the witches\u2019 cauldron after most people had gone home, and saw a drift of bills with a number of 20s peeping through.A standing ovation doesn't cost anything, and sitting for two hours on uncomfortable seats requires only stamina.But when you get folks to voluntarily part with folding money you've really got something.Macbeth, directed by Cas Anvar, 1s at Westmount Park tonight tomorrow night.The Comedy of Errors, co-directed by Jennifer More- house and Robert van der Linden, is playing in the park Saturday and Sunday.All performances start at 8 pm.They play around the
