WARD 6 FRAY icole Forbes, who ran the Défusion Westmount office during the critical period leading up to the demerger referendum last year, has decided to run for Westmount's Ward 6 seat in the November municipal election.Forbes, a Melville Avenue resident who grew up on nearby Kensington Avenue, joins two other candidates, Allen Nutik and Syd Wise, who are also running in Ward 6.This is the only ward so far to have more than one candidate.The offspring of a Francophone mother and Scottish father, Forbes is fluent in three languages\u2014English, French and Italian.Although she helped manage successful election campaigns for other candidates at both the municipal and provincial levels, this is the first time Forbes herself is seeking public office.Forbes said she was prompted to make the switch from the \u2018back room\u2019 to the candidate\u2019s platform by her work with the demerger group and the realization that her professional background and experience could be valuable assets to the administration of the reconstituted city.\u201cThose were hectic days and nights,\u201d she said of the final weeks prior to the 2004 demerger vote, when she oversaw a force of more than 600 community volunteers.\u201cBut looking back on things now, | can honestly say it was the most rewarding experience of my life.i pré\u201d (continued on page 3) Ll UN Ji eÿsfor

C.Barry oslyn School caretaker Eddie Nolan staged a reprise of sorts last week of an earlier fundraising effort\u2014minus the miniskirt and wig, of course.It was three years ago that Nolan, who's been a Terry Fox Run participant for a quarter-century, honoured a pledge made to the school\u2019s students, that he would shave his legs and dress up in women's clothes if the kids succeeded in raising more than $7.000 for cancer research.They ended up collecting more than twice that amount.Last Friday on the soccer field of nearby Murray Hill Park, the goal for the 600 Roslyn students taking part in their segment of the Terry Fox National School Run was $25,000.Depending on the number of pledges honoured, the final tally won't be known until the end of the month.\u201cThis year as a motivator, instead of shaving my legs or wearing a dress or dyeing my hair, I was fortunate enough to have been given four mountain bikes,\u201d said Nolan.praising Roscoe Enterprises, LaSalle Canvas and Rope and the Sun Youth Organization for donating the mountain bikes as prizes in a raffle draw.\u201cThere are a few people that still like to see the legs shaven,\u201d he added.\u201cBut as I said to the children.it\u2019s a special year.So the mountain bikes kind | of went off big.They were pretty impressed.\u201d The first year Roslyn took part in Only 47 units Project and sales

$14,000, the second year it was $16,000 and last year $17,000 was raised.This year\u2019s $25,000 goal was based on an estimate of $1,000 for each of the years the Terry Fox Run has been taking place.Ginette Sauvé-Frankel, the English Montreal School Board\u2019s commissioner for Westmount, was on hand with parents and teachers who were assisting with the run.\u201cI think it\u2019s very important for the kids,\u201d she said.\u201cIt\u2019s a tremendous ongoing effort to do it every year and it really shows how important Terry Fox has been to this country,\u201d Sauvé-Frankel added.\u201cSo for the kids to latch onto such a figure, it's good for their health and it\u2019s for a good cause at the same time.\u201d Like all the Roslyn students, Dakota Coderre, 7.had been briefed about Terry Fox.\"What do | know about Terry Fox?Well, first thing I know he\u2019s a hero, which everyone knows, and that\u2019s almost everything,\u201d he said.\u201cHe ran almost all across Canada.He didn't make it, but the cancer that he had started spreading in his body and he died\u201d Laura Bryan.Coderre\u2019s grade two teacher, said she and the rest of the Roslyn School teachers prepared the students well for the run.\u201cThey've been hearing about Terry Fox for about two or three weeks now,\u201d she said.\"We had a film that we showed to most of the kids about his life and his reasons for running and the outcome, and why we are so emotionally involved with him now.\u201d Condo fees $60 to $90 per month Kitchen appliances included Metro Guy SST NEES ee LOCAL

SPEEDING PROBLEMS Martin C.Barry he director of a recreation centre in lower Westmount agrees with a resident who gathered a petition on nearby Prospect Street, that speeding and other traffic-related problems in their neighbourhood could be endangering children\u2019s lives.A large number of residents of Prospect, which runs parallel to the CP Rail line just east of Greene enue, joined their neighbours on Zlandeboye Avenue in signing the petition, which has been submitted to the Westmount Public Security Department.\u201cOver the past few years, the amount of traffic and the speed at which the cars travel has increased significantly,\u201d said Frank Candido, a spokesman for the residents.adding that most motorists ignore a 30/kmh speed limit that is clearly posted on Greene Avenue opposite Stayner Park.He suggested that the reason for the increased traffic is that many motorists travelling north on Greene Avenue from St.Antoine Street are increasingly turning east onto Prospect.then north onto Clandeboye.to avoid the traffic light at the corner of Greene and Dorchester Boulevard.The situation is most acute between 7 and 9:30 a.m.\"Prospect and Clandeboye are Many residents on » Prospect and Clandeboye worry that increased traffic and speeding vehicles pose a danger to children in the area.neighbourhood streets,\u201d Candido told The Examiner.\u201cUnfortunately.for whatever reason.the streets are used to cut traffic lights .Greene Avenue essentially becomes as busy as Atwater as a result of this.\u201d Although he said the problem occurs on Prospect during the morning and evening rush hours, Candido added that the morning seems to be especially bad.\u201cIn the morning, when you're standing on Prospect.there's just a rush of cars coming from that direction.And God help vou if vou're coming in the other direction.\u201d Candido said he was recently involved in a collision with a motorist who was driving dangerously and that he has experienced several other near-misses.\u201cWhen these cars are coming.and they're coming right in the middle of the road.at a clip that\u2019s fairly fast they come whipping around Prospect and Clandeboye above the speed limit and basically can either kill some- (continued from page 1) \u201cI realized how truly fortunate we are to have a city brimming with quality people so committed to their community that they are willing to volunteer and work long hours for the greater good.It really was an awesome experience\u2014and of course we were successful in taking back our city.\u201d Forbes has worked as a communications specialist for the Orchestre Métropolitain du Grand Montréal.Les Grands Ballets Canadiens, and Les Jeunesses Musicales du Canada.She has been a political attaché to Quebec's Minister of Communications and served as an administrator for the Bélanger- Campeau Commission on the future of Quebec's role in Canada.Also a volunteer.Forbes is a mem- {@ of the Westmount Community vents Advisory Committee.which oversees Westmount Family Day.the annual Spring Ball and other events.She is a board member and chair of the Visual Arts Centre and organized the first-ever Westmount St.Jean celebrations in conjunction with the city's 125th anniversary celebrations in 1999.#1 934-1818 4 Westmount Square 40461189 SH http://www.royallepage.ca westmount1@royallepage.ca Forbes says areas of civic government in which she is particularly interested include cultural affairs, traffic, planning and zoning issues\u2014 including the preservation of Westmount's architectural heritage.\u201cLike many citizens, I'm fed up seeing motorists speeding through the streets and running red lights with alacrity,\u201d she said.\u201cWe need to work with police to find solutions that will enable us to better enforce traffic laws and keep our streets safe for families and kids.\u201d Another priority she sees is landlord-tenant issues.Forbes said Westmount will inevitably be facing some serious challenges during the transition back to full-fledged city status, which she can help meet.\u201cReasserting our independence while collaborating with the City of Montreal and other surrounding municipalities on island-wide issues will be a real test.\u201d she said.Reacting to Forbes's decision to enter the race.former mayor Peter Trent said.\u201cNicole would be a great addition to city council.She did a remarkable job running Défusion Westmount.Her enthusiasm was infectious enough to chivvy a rather REALTOR Nicole Forbes disparate group of Westmounters into moving happily in the same direction not an easy task.\u201d Borough Mayor Karin Marks said.\u201cIn terms of her abilities working with volunteers, she really has proven that she has a great strength in that sort of community building.\u201d IN WESTMOUNT ACCORDING TO G.M.R.B, STATISTICS nq ROYAL LEPAGE x \u201cTaN HERITAGE Courtier immobilier agréé Franchise

suggesting Westmount should restrict right turns onto Prospect from Greene.\"It's impossible to let your kids out between 7 or 9:30 or 10 in the morning without being completely supervised in this neighbourhood.It shouldn't be that way.\u201d Anna Johannson, Centre Greene - which has a daycare facility agreed that the traffic heading uphill on Greene during the morning rush hour is probably the most intense.\u201cIt\u2019s very transitory traffic,\u201d she said.\"They come up under the overpass, and very few of them actually slow down.\u201d Although there is a traffic light and a crosswalk on Greene Avenue just outside Centre Greene, Johannson noted that cars \u201ccome zooming up the hill, obviously on their way to work.and (users from) the daveare often ae crossing the street.\u201d Borough Mavor Karin Marks said she had heard nothing about the situation.\u201cIt's the first time I'm hearing about a problem.I hasn't been brought to our attention before.And if it is, we'll do what we always do, which is to have the traffic committee take à look at it and do an analysis.\u201d Forbes also has the endorsement of Margaret Lefebvre, who represented Ward 6 prior to the forced amalgamation with Montreal.\u201cNicole will bring vision, experience and dedication to the role, and as always, her trademark enthusiasm.Ward 6 will be in excellent hands,\u201d she said.On being told that a third candidate had entered the Ward 6 race, Allen Nutik replied, \u201cThere is a common thread that runs through certain announcements: those that have the support of the mayor and Peter Trent are obviously the slate candidates, \u201cWhat you have is a thread of the so-called establishment slate, which wishes now again to make its representations and control of the council evident.\u201d he added.\u201cThe citizens can get the slate, or they can get an independent voice and thinker who will question what's going on in Westmount administrative life.\u201d Syd Wise said.\u201cPerhaps she does have the blessing of the borough mayor.So be it.But | know that | have a core of voters who are prepared to support me, and it's up to me to make sure they get out and vote, And | believe that | will have enough votes to win the election.\u201d eset TH oy + ee stars Fe ! ed y | director of INNONISIUV 3k 3 \u20ac abbey - S007 IT s8querdes sérsanul = YFNHNEN Page 4 -

a scenario around his own personality,\u2019 Trent said Tuesday following the release of Bourque\u2019s latest \u2018One Island, One City\u2019 proposal.\u2018He\u2019s gotten to the point where he somehow believes he has a monopoly on the truth.I can\u2019t believe anybody listening to or reading what he says would not get a shiver down their spine about the kind of way he would like to run the island of Montreal.He obviously feels that he should have the final say, and honestly that scares me.If this man gets his way, he\u2019ll make Drapeau look like a democrat.\u201d Ten Years Ago September 21, 1995 MET CLOSES: \u201cAfter two and a half years of struggling, the Met teen centre is no more.As of Monday, the hard reality was there on the padlocked door: teenagers could no longer hang out at the Metcalfe Avenue and Sherbrooke Street centre which closed due to lack of money.Staff were given notice two weeks ago and left with severance pay.The teenagers, meanwhile, have nowhere to go, at least for now.Board co-president Toni Braide, director of the local YMCA, said a burned- out board directors had run out of steam trying to raise even basic funds to cover rent and salaries\u2014roughly $63,000 a year\u2014or about 70 per cent of the $90.000 needed annually.\u201d Fifteen Years Ago September 20, 1990 CAT BURGLAR: \"A man has been walking Westmount streets with a bag of cat food, dishes and a can opener.Resident who have talked to the man suspect he lures strays and out-of-doors house cats with the food, then carries them off.Though there have been no recent reports of missing felines, residents of Olivier Avenue have put up \u201c@s warning cat owners of the threat.\u201cÉs claiming everything is a stray.\u2019 said Helen Giles.\u2018He was telling house cats (that we knew) were strays.Cats without collars or name tags are totally fair game.We were really quite appalled.\u2019 Twenty Years Ago September 19, 1985 PARK FACELIFT: \u201cA major landscaping scheme to redevelop part of Westmount Park at costs of up to $183,000 calls for replacing the paved de Maisonneuve portion with much shrubbery, a fountain, basketball courts, a bicycle path, a dog run, a play area and permanent bleachers.The grand project, as well as various options at lesser costs, was made public this week by Mayor Brian Gallery, who said the city plans to consult residents before final decisions are made.\u201d PETER TRENT'S ELECTION PERSPECTIVES C hances are that Westmount and Montreal will have to learn to live without Peter Trent for this election.\u201cI haven't completely decided, but I almost certainly won't be taking part in campaigns outside Westmount,\u201d he said this week.\u201cI have certainly no time for Gerald Tremblay or Pierre Bourque so I won't be going there.\u201cAt this point, I don\u2019t see myself as a talking head on TV or radio.Besides, I don\u2019t feel that I am fully informed on current events.\u201d Following the referendum 15 months ago, the former mayor and demerger leader retired to the house he had bought on Cote St.Antoine Road.He wanted to oversee completion of all the alterations that he had postponed to concentrate on the provincial election and subsequent demerger battles.After two years of rising at 5a.m to prepare for the day\u2019s media onslaught, he has been living more conventional hours.He was just back after a weekend in Boston with his wife, Kathryn.That house is now finished, but he doesn\u2019t expect to become involved in even local affairs.\u201cWell, perhaps to react if some issue from the past comes up.\u201d He will support some council candidates and has already spoken out for his long-time friend George Bowser and, this week, for Nicole Forbes.\u201cThere might be more, if I'm asked and I know the person.\u201d After being elected three times, Trent could write a book on how a council should run a city.\u201cIt should be harmonious, capable of compromise that does not destroy the basic purpose.Council should show leadership.\u201d Surprisingly, he looks for a degree of \u201cdisparate\u201d views.\u201cEvery member should be in opposition from time to time.The new council should be able to put the city back together, perhaps even better than ever,\u201d he said.Trent was unopposed when running for his three terms as mayor, but had to fight for his first election\u2014as an alderman in 1983.\"Everyone would like to be acclaimed and it is legitimate for someone who has proved his competency in office.\u201cA case can be made for a first time candidate being contested and answering \u2018Am I really doing a service to my fellow citizens by running?'\u201d Searching for the right candidates Karin Marks searched long and hard to find a candidate \u201cwith a legal and/or financial background.\u201d Guy Charette was the ultimate choice.Every council needs a mix of people and Marks wanted to ensure the reconstituted city begins with different skills at the table.So far there is no one challenging the return of John de Castell, Cynthia Lulham and Tom Thompson from the Trent era.The first two had four challenging years with periods of almost full-time duties in support of Marks in the fight to live with the megacity and gain the level of independence the fickle Jean Charest allowed.Thompson has maintained his involvement as chair of the Healthy City Project steering committee and was almost as visible at community events as in his council years.As president of the Westmount Municipal Association for four years, Kathleen Duncan had access to monthly background documents and was usually at council\u2019s public meetings.Both she and Thompson served with the Marks council, Trent and others on the demerger steering committees that ended with the referendum.If all are elected on Nov.6, the links with the past will be strong as well as varied in age, background and occupations.Electors will be able to judge the five old-hands according to the Trent criteria.The test will come from newcomers (who will be discussed in future articles).Charette is, however, clearly singled out for a special role.An obvious task will be to overcome the ravages to the city's financial position caused by the forced merger, the mega-city and the changed responsibilities.Marks has been aware of the need since the beginning of the year when it was apparent that the leadership burden in the new city could become hers.The word was out that she was looking.In the late summer, she met with four women candidates, who she thought could fill the role of overseeing the finance portfolio.\u201cIn each case, they were already loaded with family and careers,\u201d Marks said.\u201cWestmount is full of talented people who are in the same situation.\u201cHowever, | have hopes that three of them will step forward in the future.Sounding the alarm The issues of the mega-hospital will never go away, but they are sure to be perpetuated if one startling recommendation in the report of the Office Publique de consultation is acted on.The commissioners want a level crossing across the CP tracks near Claremont! There are 45 service trains on the line now, plus all the shuffling of empty cars.There will be more in the future as the transit authority is promising to expand all its services on the line Every time a train passes will result in flashing lights and deliberately noisy warning bells.Not good for the neighboring residents in Westmount or NDG! The megacity has yet to react on the commissioners\u2019 report, though some of its supporters want an access at the intersection.Perhaps they have not thought about those jarring alarms! Nice words for Marks Westmount occasionally does not get treated badly in the French media.Very occasionally! This week was one of the nice exceptions.La Presse singled out Karin Marks for a perfect attendance record at the mega-coun- cil.Saulie Zajdel and Nicolas Tetrault were chastised by Megamayor Gérald Tremblay for being at the other end of the list.Sixty Years Ago September 21, 1945 R.M.R.HOMECOMING: \u201cOfficers and men of the 1st Battalion, R.M.R., who will arrive at Quebec tomorrow morning aboard the troopship Pasteur, will detrain at Westmount Station in the afternoon, and lead a grand parade of service personnel, from the station to Westmount Park for a civic and regimental reception.\u201d Seventy Years Ago September 20, 1935 SCHOOL DAYS: \u201cIt is a far cry from the days when the room of an old blockhouse served as Westmount\u2019s first school, to the opening of the Argyle Junior High School this fall.Yet Westmount\u2019s educational cavalcade has marched on triumphantly through 62 years, from the days when there were two toll-gates in Westmount, one on Sherbrooke Street at the corner of Elm Avenue and the other west of what is now Claremont Avenue on Cote St.Antoine Road.\u201d (continued from LETTERS, page 6) Blame the legislators To the editor: You don\u2019t blame the paperboy when the news is unpleasant.You don\u2019t fault the police officer when you're nailed for speeding.So why do Quebec anglos whine whenever the Office quebecois de la langue francaise (OQLF) does its job enforcing Quebec\u2019s discriminatory language law, as it did in recent cases involving NDG\u2019s Monkland Tavern and the town of Richmond, Que.?They do so because it\u2019s easier to shoot the messenger than to put the blame where it rightly belongs\u2014on the individuals who make the law.Simply put, this isn\u2019t about the bureaucrats\u2014it's about the legislators, including the Liberal politicians for whom anglos continue to vote en masse.During the 2003 election campaign, now Liberal Premier Jean Charest made it clear he \u201cwould not change one comma\u201d of Bill 101.In 1998, he shamelessly joined the big gang of French supremacists opposed to including even the legal amount of English on signs at Eaton\u2019s and The Bay.So instead of bitching the next time the OQLF does its job, anglos might want to examine their neurotic dependence on a savior that doesn\u2019t exist.And instead of condemning their pettiness, English media such as The Gazette should be thanking the bureaucrats for enforcing a ridiculous law to a ridiculous degree.In doing so, the OQLF reminds us just how intolerant and indifferent Quebec's lawmakers truly are.Peter Sauvé Montreal SEND THE EDITOR AN E-MAIL: larsenw@transcontinental.ca L abed - SOOT \u2018TZ J8que)des \u2018AepsinyL - YININYXF LNNONILSIM IHL Ville de Montréal

the Gayety Theatre where St.Cyr performed sophisticated narrative routines with a variety of elaborate props and costumes.Former mayor May Cutler recounted how she had visited the theatre

the opportunity to discuss the works with them.Hobbs is a familiar name in the Montreal art community.In his most recent body of work.he endeavored to free the paintings from the restraints of the visible world.Working from a representational subject.whether landscape or still life, he developed and worked the surfaces, focusing on the structure.space, relationship and texture.Throughout the process he altered and transformed the image until it developed its own essential qualities and personality allowing the painting to stand on its own.Larouche is a Quebec artist whose work has evolved from a Monet-like impressionism to something far bolder and more contemporary.The emphasis has moved from capturing atmospheric effects.to the building of textures in the paint itself.His rich colors and tones emphasize the rough surface of the canvas and create a dramatic grainy effect.The \u2018Love for the Land\u2019 exhibition will continue at the Avenue Art Gallery.4880 Sherbrooke St.W.,

Smoking: That unhealthy feeling of being cool with Marylin Smith Carsley A t will never happen to me\u2014only I: someone else.That statement could explain how many teenagers envision their idealistic lives.J .$ ; It is only with age and experience at an individual realizes that no one is exempt from tragedy or illness.But unfortunately our youth and some adults as well, ignore blatant warning signs, as they believe that they will be safe no matter what.How could anyone in 2005, not be alarmed by the negative visuals so explicitly displayed on a pack of cigarettes or the increase in cancer and heart disease attributed to smoking?It\u2019s difficult to believe that smoking, a deadly vice, is still so popular.Unfortunately, in the past it was portrayed as glamorous as all its dangers had not yet been revealed.Years ago.people could buy cigarettes pretty much anywhere\u2014even in hospitals.Ads for them were all over the place but the cancer label had not yet been affixed.Today we're completely aware of how harmful smoking is as it is banned in almost all public places and companies are no longer permitted to PO \u201cSure, my insurance covered (1) fire A EEE] à but | had to dig

we thought during my adolescence was that it was worth it to look cool dangling a cigarette even if the sore throat was an after effect.But, little did we comprehend at the time was that many teens would become habitual adult smokers doomed to patches.acupuncture, and hypnotism in the attempt to quit the addiction.Statistics Canada reported that in 2004 fewer teens lit up as the smoking rate fell below that of the general population for the first time in a decade.The twice yearly tobacco monitoring survey, found that 18 per cent of teens aged 15 to 19 smoked.down from 22 per cent in 2002.Girls were more likely (20 per cent) to light up than boys (17 per cent), but drops in smoking among Quebec boys and Ontario girls accounted for much of the overall decrease.Although the Canadian Cancer Society welcomed the news, they said more needs to be done to reach those still smoking.Overall, about 5.3 million Canadians, about 21 per cent of the population over 15, smoked last year, a percentage virtually unchanged since 2002.Some very interesting results demonstrated that working teens were more likely to smoke than student teens and university graduates were less likely to smoke than those without a degree.(continued on page 18) OPEN HOUSES Sat.& Sun.Sept.14\" & 15\u201d, 2005, 2 Westmount 435-437-439 Grosvenor 5 BEST DEAL IN WESTMOUNT The Villa Grosvenor is now converting

the major runways.To answer everyone\u2019s question on how you can correct imperfections while keeping that \u201cbare skin\u201d look, Pat suggests using a foundation and blush in a lightweight finish for a sun-kissed look.This fall, beauty comes in threes: seductive eyes, fresh skin and shiny lips with a With a flawless background, the eyes can really shine.This season, make-up artists are turning back to the 60s, emphasizing the eyes with thick, clearly defined eyeliner.In fact, at the Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana and Miu Miu shows, there was a definite \u201cgo-go\u201d look going on: all the models were batting voluminous eyelashes accentuated with heavy black eyeliner.Lips might be more understated this season, but they\u2019re still fabulous.Depending on the look you're going for, you can choose a long-lasting lipstick or just a shiny, lightly tinted lip-gloss.In Cover Girl's \u201cTea and Ginger\u201d collection, the Smoothwear Liptints are available in several soft shades

was probably the result of a number of things, which may include higher taxes, graphic visual warnings on packages, advertising and promotion restrictions and bans on smoking in the workplace and other public places.With all that propaganda, there are too many kids still lighting up.Cigarettes are filled with repulsive things that no one would ever think of putting into their body.For instance, every time you smoke, you are inhaling carbon monoxide, and chemicals like DDT, arsenic and formaldehyde.Besides that there is nicotine, the drug that makes smoking addictive.Tar and carbon monoxide cause serious breathing problems and of course smoke causes cancer.To sum it up, tobacco is toxic to your body causing more health problems and early deaths than all illegal drugs combined.With its addictive nature, your body, once hooked will crave it making it almost impossible to stop.So with all the negatives, what are the attractions?Perhaps it is a form of rebellion, or maybe kids just want to fit in with a particular group of friends.Smoking may give them a macho, sexy, independent, or grown up feeling.They may believe that cigarettes will improve their concentration or help them lose weight.Children may also model people who they admire that smoke.It could simply be their parents or people in Hollywood where there has been an increase of on screen smoking that is further amplified by the current cigar craze.Kids may also be under the impression that they can quit anytime but many of them may not realize that a teen can become addicted with much lower doses of nicotine.When talking to a few Westmount teens, whose names I shall omit to protect their privacy, I found out how teens actually perceive smoking.Many still do not believe in it and have managed to stay away but there are still many who want to fit.One 16-year-old male claimed that smoking is really no big thing.\u201cMany of my friends do smoke, but we can quit anytime.It's just for now.\u201d Another high school student mentioned that he would never smoke, as he liked sports too much.One 17-year-old said that he only smoked on weekends and when I asked why, he admitted that he used the cigarette as an image thing.\u201cIt makes you look cool.and you can get into clubs easily.Without it, I would look too young.\u201d Some of the young girls, ages 13 and 14, told me how everyone smoked and it was just to fit i \u201cSome kids won't let you join if you different.\u201d one girl said.Years later, all young smokers realize that it was a huge mistake to start.Besides all the obvious health dangers, we also know that smoking can be the gateway drug to other drugs and unhealthy activities.One of the best ways to combat these negative behaviours is to get kids involved in sports and other activities where it is always banned by the coaches.If a child wants to give his or her best performance, smoking impedes it.If your children are not athletically inclined, keeping them busy with other activities such as music, art or drama, keeps them away from substance abuse.But of course the never-ending peer pressure factor still pulls the most powerful strings of influence.Talking to your child constantly will help them in making the right decision.Your support as a parent, if strong enough, will win over peer pressure.40949110 Do you have a trusted financial

retrospective at the MMFA istory has rather unfairly branded him as simply the ninth member of the Group of Seven, the second-to-last painter invited to join Canada\u2019s most famous and influential art movement shortly before its dissolution.But as the current retrospective exhibition at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts clearly demonstrates, Westmount\u2019's own Edwin Holgate was much more an a landscape artist whose wh helped to usher in a bold new spirit of creativity in this country.Holgate was the prime organizer behind Montreal's venerable Beaver Hall Group, and later was a founding member of the Canadian Group of Painters.Throughout the 1920s and \u201830s he was also a charter member of the informal sketching parties that invaded the French Canadian villages along the lower St.Lawrence River every spring\u2014a rowdy annual ritual organized by ringleader A.Y.Jackson that could also include any combination of Randolph Hewton, Albert Robinson, Clarence Gagnon.and Dr.Frederick Banting.But it would be entirely wrong to label Holgate a landscape man simply by the company he kept.He was definitely a master of the genre, his thickly painted canvases instantly recognizable by their brilliant whites, deep blue skies and uncluttered compositions, but as exhibition co- curators Rosalind Pepall of the MMFA and Brian Foss of Concordia University have shown, this was only a small portion of his creative output.The greater part of the show is devoted to Holgate the print- maker, war artist and painter of the formal portrait and nude figure.Of the 10 official members of the Group of Seven, only FH.Varley and Holgate were well- known for their portraiture and nudes.But while the elder Varley rarely attempted the difficult task of combining genres, Holgate often managed to incorporate his nudes and portraits into landscapes.His 1935 portrait of Herman \u2018Jackrabbit\u2019 Johannsen, for example, sets the legendary cross-country skier against the snowy backdrop of Mont Tremblant, just as his famous portraits \u2018The Lumberjack\u2019 and \u2018Fire Ranger\u2019 are as much about the background moun- ( and trees as they are the figures emselves.Likewise, many of Holgate\u2019s female nudes are posed to appear lounging in the wilds, their smooth torsos and limbs rendered similarly to the rocks and tree trunks\u2014making them appear to be integral elements of the landscape.This is a difficult effect to achieve, and was accomplished by very few artists, notable among them Holgate\u2019s Montreal contemporary, Prudence Heward.Born in Allendale, Ont., Holgate lived at 44 Rosemount Ave.as a youth and graduated from Westmount Academy in 1910.He also lived at 65 Rosemount Crescent in the late 1920s and early '30s, and, after spending several years on Lorne Avenue and in Morin Heights, he finally moved back to an apartment at 399 Clarke Ave.in the early 1970s.This is the largest and most comprehensive exhibition of Holgate'\u2019s work in 30 years, and as such is a long overdue trib- \u2018Baie-Saint-Paul\u2019 by Edwin Holgate Holgate's 1934 self-portrait ute to an artist whose ideas and images formed part of what was arguably the most catalytic period in this country\u2019s cultural history.The exhibition catalogue, by Pepall and Foss, is an excellent tribute to the life and work of this versatile but often overlooked artist.Not only does it feature extensive essays by both curators, but also other valuable articles by key scholars\u2014Laura Brandon of the Canadian War Museum, Francois-Marc Gagnon of the Gail and Stephen A.Jarislawsky Institute for Studies in Canadian Art; Sandra Dyck of the Carleton University Art Gallery, and Rosemarie Tovell of the National Gallery of Canada.Lavishly illustrated with colour reproductions of works from the exhibition, it is by far the best and most complete account of Holgate's life and art ever published and is likely to remain the APARTMENTS IESE J] SENIORS definitive work on the artist.With this exhibition and its accompa- nving publication, Pepall and Foss have succeeded admirably in drawing Holgate out from the shadows of Canadian art history and placing him back in the public eye, where his work can once again be appreciated by his long-time admirers and.more importantly, discovered by a whole new generation across the country.Those interested in catching this colourful and revealing exhibition are advised to do so within the next week, as it closes on Oct.2.It will then travel on to the Glenbow Museum in Calgary, the McMichael Canadian Collection in Kleinburg, Ont., the National Gallery in Ottawa, and finally the Beaverbrook Gallery in Fredericton.« The Edwin Holgate exhibition at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts continues through Oct.2.A symposium on the life and work of Edwin Holgate will be held on Saturday.Oct.1 from 2to 6 p.m.in the MMFAs Maxwell-Cummings Auditorium, featuring co- curators Rosalind Pepall and Brian Foss, as well as Laura Brandon, Sandra Dyck Francois-Mare Gagnon, and Rosemarie Tovell.The event will be held in English and French, Free admission; no reservations are

that convey their intimate connection to those places.Evidence of change or cultural modernity and their interface with the past are caught in images of men in modern western clothes mingling in the market square with those in traditional saris, dhotis and turbans.Drummond has not frozen time or romanticized his subjects: on the contrary, he has accomplished what good photographers aim to accomplish: to let the subjects speak for themselves.Since 1968, Drummond has been engaged in industrial, publicity and design photography.More recently, he has devoted increasing time to his own artistic photographic pursuits.worked as a freelance photograph for Time Magazine, and in 1976 had the first solo exhibition of photography at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts; his work is also in the Museum's permanent collection.Drummond has exhibited his work in Canada and the United States: he has also taught photography and lectured widely on his work.- \u2018Faces of Nepal\u2019.an exhibition of photographs by Michael Drummond, continues in the Gallery at Victoria Hall, 4626 Sherbrooke W, through Oct.1.Freeman exhibits \u2018underground\u2019 artwork Well-known Westmount artist Shelley Freeman is currently having a solo exhibition of paintings on subterranean spaces, caves and abandoned mines at the Centre communautaire Elgar, 260 Elgar, on Nun's Island.Freeman, who recently participated in the group show at Victoria Hall where 10 local artists depicted scenes of Westmount, visited several abandoned mines in Quebec and Ontario in order to research this series of paintings.The exhibition ends tomorrow, Sept.23.For more information, call 765-7150.Arthritis \\ .our Sponsors Bristol-Mye quibb Canada Novartis, Merk FR Canada Ltd Hills Pet tion Canada Santé et des Services sociaux, Pharmaprix, Old-Timers Dorval.Broadway Paving Company, Borough ofDorval in french : Montréal FREE PUBLIC SYMPOSIUM Empower, Yourself!

with the 25th annual Terry Fox Run, a first National School Run was organized and Roslyn was featured representing Quebec during the CBC's special coverage.School curator Eddy Nolan, initiator and organizer for Roslyn\u2019s participation five years ago, was responsible for that honour.Since 1981, he has run every year making the run on Sunday his 25th.A long-time marathoner himself, he was bowled over by what Terry was doing in 1980, running 26 miles a day\u2014a marathon\u2014for 141 days.With humor and passion, this caring caretaker is the biggest motivator for Roslyn\u2019s students.Nolan goes from classroom to classroom, organizes assemblies, speaks one-on-one to the students and shows them his Terry Fox memorabilia.He asks them if they know why Terry Fox wanted to raise funds for cancer research.As he says \u201cTerry did it because the hurting must stop.\u201d The kids get a lesson in history and geography, but mostly they learn to help others.The entire

and there was no school.Since 2000, the students in the team, under the guidance of teacher Jeff Kosow, have run the Terry Fox Run with grades 1 to 6 students from Mackay Center.The students are buddied up, the high school students supplying physical support and personal motivation to their buddies.Bob Simpson, Mackay\u2019s coordinator for the run, says \"For the students at Mackay Center, Terry Fox is a great role model.The students see that someone with a physical disability can overcome adversity.\u201d The great thing too is that the affiliation between the two schools doesn\u2019t end with the run.Every month a group of WHS Leadership Gym Team students go to the Mackay Center to help with physical activities in the pool.According to Kosow, the combined Terry Fox run exemplifies everything that leadership is about: dedication, commitment, encouragement and assistance.For the WHS students, \u201cthe experience is life changing\u201d, says Kosow.\"Until they get involved in the leadership team, they don\u2019t really know what it is to be handicapped.This puts life into perspective.\u201d Yes, the annual Terry Fox Run gives the students a chance to raise funds for cancer
