Less Government Please With our federal election just a few day away on Oct. 215th we'd like to emphasize to voters that government costs MUST be reduced considerably. No matter which political party takes over we must have those billions of dollars of handouts eliminated. Most cultural or artistic groups can raise fund themselves when necessary. But when government makes it easy to get why should they raise their own fund. Our na- tional debt is largely as a result of handouts to groups. Governments were established to administer a counts•. province or territory for the general good but over the years the political handouts to groups has reached ridiculous amounts. Even the Canadian labour Congress received $13.4 million tax dollars from 19139 to 1992. The Montreal "Museum of Humour" got $3.3 million. $15,435 was dished out to study "Eunuchs in Imperial China"! and $16.3.360 went to study the Filipino garlic industry. Then we have those gold-plated 11IPs' pensions which start after only six years of service - and you don't have to wait till you're old to collect - you get it now and forever! No. we need a government which will tackle this huge problem and encourages entrepreneurs to use their own resources to take projects of value to the nation.

Federal Development Bank Entrepreneurs Gearing Up For Renewed Growth After three years spent hunkered down riding out the recession, astute Cana- dian entrepreneurs are on the offensive again - for- mulating strategy and tac- tics that will enable them to capitalize on the opportun- ties which accompany renewed economic growth. New opportunities, of course, also bring new challenges. Businesses that don't react quickly enough to the challenge of change may soon find themselves relegated to stagnation or even extinction - en- trepreneurial dinosaurs that couldn't adapt to a new competitive en0ronment. In an era of ever- increasing competition from both domestic and foreign sources. being on top now doesn't guarantee staying on top. There are always rivals out there in the marketplace waiting to unseat successful com- panies that grow compla- cent resting on their laurels. It's time for operators of small and medium-sized businesses in Canada to shift out of survival node and look to the future - a future that appears to hold the promise of renewed prosperity. True. con- sumer confidence remains somewhat shaky as a result of continuing high unemployment. But from all indicaticins, the Cana- dian economy is finally on the nerd. In fact, the latest forecast of the 24 -nation, Pans -based Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development ( OECD ) indicates that Canada will outstrip all other major im distrialized countries in terms of real economic growth over the next two years. statistics are encouraging Consensus forecasts en- vision Canada's gross domestic product I GDP i expanding by about 3 per cent in 1993 and 4 per cent in 1994. Retailing. exports and spending on business machinery and equipment are leading the recovery. Inflation is running at less than 2 per cent and interest rates are lower than they've been in more than a quarter of a century. Those GDP growth figures admittedly are less than spectacular as post- war economic rebounds go. But recession -weary Cana- dian businesses should take solace from the fact that the immediate prospects for their home market are considerably brighter than those faced by en- trepreneurs in traditional economic powerhouses such as Germany and Japan, now mired in slumps. Indeed, given the relentless shift towards a single global marketplace, the relative attractiveness of a revitalized Canadian economy will no doubt lead to even greater competi- tion from foreign firms seeking to compensate for disappinting prospects in their own backyards. Size up the competition This is all the more reason for Canadian en- trepreneurs to take stock of their competitiveness, to make whatever changes might be warranted to en- sure that their firms are in fighting trim to handle the increased competition - and the increased oppor- tunities. A good way to begin is by sizing up the competition, analysing their strengths and weaknesses in terms of costs, quality and customer service. In areas where you don't measure up. adopt the standards of your toughest rival as a ben- chmark to teach or sur- Iass- Restructuring necessitated by the pro- tracted recession has left most Canadian small businesses leaner and more agile. Consequently. the benefits of improved business conditions - i.e. sales and firmer prices - stould stow up quickly on their "bottom lines"- But the real whiners in the post - recession era will be those proactive entrepreneurs who go the extra mile to en- sure they can explat any opportunities which corse their way Adapt strategics for suc- CVN% Gang the extra mile does not mean reverting to the business practices of 198% excess - blithely loading up on inventory in anticipation of increased orders. for in- stance. Instead. smart mane fwt urers are turning to just -in -time supply strategies and forging closer links with key sup- pliers• tactics which enable them to respond quickly to handle increased business while avoiding the pitfalls of inventory stockpiling. A key to business success in the 1990s is improved productivity - which in- variably entails invest- ment in both people and in- frastructure. Purchases of computers and related business automation technology are chiefly responsible for the double- digit increase this year in spending on business machinery and equipment - and with good reason. If your company isn't yet a beneficiary of the technological revolution• it probably should be. Relatively inexpensive high technology now is within reach of most small and medium-sized enter- prises. Properly utilized, computers and automated production equipment can give your company a real boost up the com- petitiveness ladder by in - Sergeant Mee - RCMP Renovation spending To lEdge L'p in 1994 Renovation spending is projected to increase 3.5 percent in 1994, according to Canada :Mortgage and Housing Ci►r- poration's National Renovation Markets September report.

Another business strategy that is paying off these days - and which par- ticularly lends itself to small and medium-sized enterprises - is one that highlights quality and customer service. Heightened competition has created an environ- ment where companies can - and do - demand more of their suppliers. Being the low cost -producer is, in itself• no guarantee of suc- cess. If you can offer a top- qualily product backed up by superior customer ser- vice at a reasonable price. chances are you'll best the would-be rival who com- petes on price alone. Benchmarking, total quality management. highlighting superior customer service, harness- ing new technology to im- prove productivity - these are just a few of the strategies you might want to consider to help ensure that your business stays on top. The key is to be proac- tive in responding to the challenge of a changing economy. __..........

They are urging older Canadians to make sure that issues they care about are part of the electoral campaign - and they are telling them to get out and vote. To help seniors be active- ly involved, "One Voice", the Canadian Seniors Net- work, has produced a Seniors Election Handbook and is widely circulating it. along with ideas for local action, to seniors and seniors groups across the country. This -how to" election guide contains key facts on vital issues of concern to seniors such as pensions, health care, affordable housing and community support services.

Oct. 23. This year's winner will be announced at a wine and cheese reception at the CNIB Library, 1929 Bayview Ave. beginning at 4:30 p.m. The Torgi, the only award of its kind in Canada. is given to Cana- dian authors whose work has been produced in talk- ing book format. Books are judged by a panel of blind and visually impaired CNIB Library clients from across the country, on the basis of literary merit and excellence in narration and production. Library clients read an average of 50 books per year. The Torgi was created nine years ago to highlight the importance of talking books to blind and other print handicapped readers, to give recognition to a significant work of Cana- dian literature and to acknowledge the participa- tion of Canadian book publishers and authors in the production of CNIB talking books. Past winning authors in- cluded Timothy Findley. Pierre Berton, Jane Rule, Heather Robertson, Janette Turner Hospital and Morley Torgov. Jackpot Winner Gregory Karpiak hit the jackpot when he purchased four Quick Picks for the Oct. 16th Lotto 6 49 draw. The 33 -year old tiorth York resident won $2,000.000. He was one of five winners across Canada to share the $10,000,000 jackpot. He said he is just an occa- sional lottery player, usual- ly purchasing tickets only when the jackpot is high. Karpiak is single and is a self-employed courier. He has no immediate plans for his winnings. not only seniors but all Canadians. It suggests questions such as "If elected, will your party guarantee the universality of Old Age Security". of Medicare in Canada? and "How will your party facilitate hous- ing renovations so seniors can stay in their homes? How will you compensate the increasing number of family caregivers?" "One Voice" is not af- filiated with any political party and does not promote any candidate or leader," said president Al Loveridge. "But as a na- tional seniors' organiza- tion, our mandate is to make Canada the best possible place to live and grow older and to ensure the direct and active in- volvement of seniors in Canadian society." Mr. Loveridge estimates that close to 90% of seniors will vote in the federal elec- tion. He added that the more than three million Canadians over age 65 who are eligible to vote could cast about a quarter of the total number of ballots on Oct. 25.

The "Pumpkin Party for Kids" (and their parents), on Oct. 23-24 and Oct. 30-31, is a celebration of the pumpkin - a food so versatile you can eat it, carve it, play games with it and feed the farm animals with what's left over. Children will delight in safe, fun, bewitching games like toss the sheep, witch pitch and pin the smile on the pumpkin. For a toothsome challenge, kids can try to bit apples on a string or guess the weight of our Great Pumpkin to win a prize. Nestle, Shoppers Drug Mart and Ault Foods Ltd French School Council Changes The Metropolitan Toron- to French language School Council (CEFCUT) is pro- posing to make changes to its electoral areas as well as to the number of trustees to be elected for the 1994 elections. In the proposal, the cur- rent electoral area of Toronto would be divided into three wards, with one trustee elected per ward. Similarly, the North York electoral area would be divided into two wards with one trustee per ward. The board is recommen- ding these changes to bet- ter represent its electors in the Metro areas of Toronto and North York. The elec- toral areas of Etobicokei York and Scarboroughi East York remain un- changed. The board also decided to decrease the total number of trustees from nine to eight, which corresponds to a normal allocation for its number of public school ratepayers. In 199t, the board obtained a special authorization to elect nine trustees. "At a time when every school board is searching for effective ways to cut costs, these changes have to be considered," states Andre Lalonde, Director of Education and Secretary - Treasurer for CEFCUT. Three public forums will be held during the last two weeks of October to allow the board to consult with its ratepayers and to obtain feedback on the proposed changes. For more infor- mation, contact Enide Emond, Superintendent of Education, at the Metropolitan Toronto French -Language School council (CEFCUT) at (416)391-2848. are among the generous sponsors for the Pumpkin Party games. Children are invited to wear their Hallowe'en costumes and decorate pumpkins as jack o' lanterns - two Hallowe'en traditions that are centuries old. The pumpkin, a member of the cucurbit (gourd) family, was a dietary staple for Canada's pioneers. Today, we eat pumpkin primarily in muf- fins and pies, but our ancestors were more creative with their pum- pkin crops and cooked everything from the seeds to the rind. At Black Creek Pioneer Village, adventurous cooks can pick up the recipes for fried pumpkin blossoms, pickled pumpkin and pum- pkin marmalade, but those with more traditional tastes may sample delicious pumpkin pies and cookies made the old fashioned way in our bake ovens. Black Creek's Pumpkin Party is a true Hallowe'en treat and a gentle reminder of what family holidays were like a century ago.

It's tempting to state that one has to know the Irish - quarrelsome one minute, crying happy tears the next -to appreciate, let alone enjoy the play but the evidence of its popular prior acceptance rules otherwise.

In 1992-913, it began in December. peaked in March, and ended by mid- Apnl. The influenza vaccine for the 19903-94 season is now available. Persons in the following groups are at high risk for developing influenza and should be vaccinated every year in late October or November: 1 People over 65 years of age. 2. Adults and children with chro►rw heart or lung diseases. 3 Residents of nursing hones or chronic care facilities. 4. Adults and children with chronic conditions such as diabetes, cancer, kidney- disease. anemia, HIV infection and any other diseases causing reduced immune response. Ask your family doctor whether you should be vaccinated if you are unsure. 5 (bikiren and adolescents (6 months - 18 years) who are getting long-term therapy with acetylsalicylic acid 1 Aspirin P. 6 Health care personnel who have extensive contact with persons rn high risk grouper as outlined above. Person; in any of the above groups can receive the vaccine at no charge at their doctors office. Persons over 6 years of age need one dose only : children under 6 years may need two doses: ask your family doctor whether this is necessary. Influenza vaccine should not be given to people who have severe allergic reactions to eggs. Symptoms of this reaction include hives. swelling of the mouth and throat, or difficulty breathing. Vaccination is the single most effective way of preventing or decreasing the seventy of influenza infections for those at high risk. yet only about 45% of this population receives vaccine annually. If you fall into any of the above groups. you should receive the vaccine every year. Pneumococcal Vaccine This vaccine provides excellent protection against 23 strains of Streptococcus pneumonia, which is the com- monest cause of bacterial pneumonia. It should be given to: 1. People over 65 years of age. 2. Adults and children over 2 vears with chronic conditions such as heart or lung diseases. diabetes or liver disease. 3. Adults and children over 2 vears with decreased immune responses such as those with spleen dysfunction, sickle cell disease or chronic kidney failure or HIV infection. This vaccine is usually given once only, but some people may need to be vaccinated again after 3-5 years. The in- fluenza and pneumococcal vaccine can be given at the same time in two different sites with no increase in side ef- fects. Side effects are generally mild. fever and muscle pains may occur.

What'll they think of next'. Dancing at Lughnasa will have you wanting to dance out of the theatre and down to vour travel agent for tickets to the Emerald Isle. STAGF; NORTH: We've been asked to ex- plain what's meant by Neil Simon's B. Trilogy. It's a collective coined by The Column to describe Brighton Beach Memoirs. Biloxi Blues and Broadway. Bound. As with all novelist playwrights, Neil Simon borrows heavily from his own life's ex- penence in almost all of his works but it was with these three plays that he became virtually autobiographical. Bnghton Beach Memoirs now playing at the Leah Posluns Theatre in North York is the first and describes his boyhood in the Brooklyn suburb of Brighton Beach which w•as roughly comparable to Toronto's Lakeshore area as It once was. B.B.M. might well be similarly described: Simon as he once was. His plays after this one have become increasingly introspective rather than recollective• sophisticated instead of precocious and cynical not sunny. The first of the B. Trilogy is the best. One wouldn't be out of line in suggesting that this Reva Stern directed and produced presentation is first rate and the best of many experienced hither to now. Gart Kravits is Eugene ( the young Neil Simon) and in the role acts also as chorus narrator. He's an engaging young man and if his characterization might seem just a tad too Henry Aldrich, let it be remembered that Eugene, after all, is an adolescent and his voice is supposed to crack though perhaps not so often. Linda Goranson and Harve Sokoloff are his parents: both bring quiet strength to their roles. The former is particularly noted for her eschewal of the stereotype Yiddisher Mama. Deedee Langford is the mousy Aunt Blanch, Ra- quel Duffy her rebellious daughter and Julie Tepper - man the supposed sickly one. Also in the household is Alexander Poch -Goldin as Eugene's older brother and probably the greatest single influence in Neil Simon's life. They're all together in close quarters in the hard times of the thirties. On the face of it, they'd seem to be just like every other family and indeed they are ...in the sense that tension and drama are never too far from the surface laughter provided by the playwright. Brighten Beach Memoirs could be described as the sort of play that Eugene O'Neill might have written had he had a sense of humour. That's all as might be. What's important is that it's a good play with an ex- cellent cast and good direc- tion. See it. 0% til'RFEN: The Beverley Hillbillies (Twentieth Century Fox movie isn't at all bad. It's not a world beater or land- mark of the motion picture art but, taken all in all, is a pleasant diversion. the sort of film that used to be the light half of a double bill. Of carie it's silly in con- cept, as was the television series from whence it came but director producer Penelope Spheens knows it and directs her cast in ad- mirably and surprisingly low key fashion - somewhere between camp and over the top -to make it palatable. Jim Varney ( Ernest) is a fine father figure as Jed and Clons Leachman as Grannv belies her former Miss .�menca background. Enka Eleniak is suitably txmbo-ish as Ell May and Dietrich Bader is a proper- ly doltish Jethro. Dabney Coleman is. well Dabney Coleman as Mr. Drysdale and Lily Tomlin is a vamp Miss Hathaway. What a shame to waste such great legs on a sappt» c icon' Rob Schneider and Lea Thompson come close to stealing the picture as con- nivers attempting to have the latter married to Jed. Watch Schneider's low- key - there's that phrase again - reaction shots. And, watch for Bader's drag bit as a hairdresser smitten by him. When vow think the film's over, don't leave. Stay and watch the major screen credits. They're actually out takes and hilarious. Come to think of it, The Beverley Hillbillies might even be a pretty good film after all. We see that at least one of the major local critics has more or less dismissed Mr. Wonderful ( Warner Brothers) as inconsequen- tial. That won't he argued here. He's a good reviewer, his assessments are from his critical heart and he's the essence of impartiality. All we know is that we were unable to attend the invitational screening because of conflicting assignments and seconded a stringer. He and his wife both thought it a heart war- ming film about selfless love and were quite taken by the performance of An- nabella Sciora. Make of that what you will IN PRINT: So there we were at our Champagne Flourishes by Frank Knight It was a pleasant sur- prise to go to The Cham- pagne Dinner Theatre the other week to find a refur- bished stage area, a new menu and a great show, all at the same previous price. The current production is a comedy farce "The Near - ]y Weds" which deals with Marcy ( Anita Vanden- Evkel) preparing to marry a navy admiral (Donald Symons) when her former boy friend. Doug (Trevor Brewer) arrives to abduct her for himself. Stirring the plot along is Marcv's mother Helen ( Maggie king) who is en- couraging her to marry Doug - It is a thin plot but was played with pace and panache as required for a farce and the lines and plot were believable. The in- creased area and angle changes of the stage was an enormous benefit. An unlimited run with an excellent drama to follow in the future "Dangerous Obsession".

Visual Arts At Harbourfront Small Works Big Ideas at the Museum for Textiles will be held from Oct. 14th to Jan. 9th at the Harbour - front Centre Craft Studio. Celebrate the 20th anniver- sary of this studio with this special exhibition of works retreat in Gloucester. Massachusetts settling in to read How To Build An Empire On An (range Crate or 121 Lessors I Never Learned In School by Yehuda-Ed-Mirvish key Porter). On page 5. Ed in writing about his cousin. Frances, relates that for many years she was the "private secretary" of song writer Irving Berlin. She later repeated the role with the renowned but eccentric in- ventor Laurens Hammad. . who lived in a castle in Gloucester, Mass. On page 34 he reveals that his original plan of decor for Ed's Warehouse was to have been based on that of one of his "favourite restaurants in the world. . .Durgin Park in Boston". The last photograph in the book was taken at one of his birthday parties in Mirvish Village. We could be wrong but think we can see our sister in the upper middle portion of it. Cer- tainly she was there: she hugely admires Ed and never misses his parties. Why has this scribe seen fit to pass on these three observations from a book that offers myriads of others? Well, ever since that happy day when we ceased soiling our good hands in the vineyards of insurance and returned to our first calling, Ed Mir- vish has been a part of it. And, it seems all of a piece that he was with us, in a manner of speaking, even while on vacation. It's a delightful book fill- ed with just enough detail of Ed and Anne Mirvish's ancestry and early lives to give insight into what makes them both what they are. Don't go looking for dirt here: you won't find it. That's not Ed's style. Oh, he's opinionated as are all clever people and his com- ments for example, on governments at all levels ( see page 205 re Michael Wilson( are trenchant but by residents and alumni of the textile studio. This exhibition is on view at the Museum for Textiles, 55 Centre Ave., Toronto. The opening reception will be on Thurs. Oct. 14th from 6 to 8 p.m. not vicious. Mostly, though, the book is best summed up in the ti- tle. Ed Mirvish has learned and profited from every, ex- perience of his life. He's happy to pass them on here. . .and make a well deserved profit in so doing. A good book by and about a good man. Now how did he know about our Gloucester retreat' I't)ST St*RIFT ONE: We're often asked why we don't write for one of the city's three major newspapers. The answer can be found on page 197. "With steady reading from cover to cover, it takes about ten hours" to read one of them. "Tine average person spends thirty minutes daily with their paper... This column then, has arguably more constant readers on average than many of the others devoted to arts and entertainment. Then too, there's the con- sideration that we haven't been asked. IN)ST SCRIPT TWO: The Mirvi have announc- ed• at a spectacular media launch, the cast of their latest production Crazy For You. The Column will be reporting more about it in future space. In the meantime, accept our word that it's a first rate one. (No, it's not true that we've been asked to understudy the role of impressario Bela -"Veil, veil, veil"-Zangler. We had earlier intended to do a feature on the songs and the musicals in which they were originally presented. Then we had a better idea. Try reading The Com- plete Lyrics of Ira Ger- shwin ( Random House). It'll give you much the same information. Mind you, it'll be necessary to extrapolate it for one's self but it's a pleasurable ex- perience. Like trying to stop eating after one toasted almond.

But it can be very costly. Preser- ving access to state of the art hospital care means keeping It affordable. Nurses are advocating for and implementing; new approaches that use hospital resources more ef- ficiently and effectively. while maintaining or im- proving; quality of care and patient satisfaction Mtort4'n Hospital Sta. One goal is to keep the stay in hospital as short as possible. consistent with safe, high quality care. This helps hospitals serve as many patients as possi- ble with the fewest beds. Another aim is to use all hospital staff and other resources more ap- propriately and efficiently. In one new patient seer tred approach, nurses coor- dinate surgical care from before admission to after discharge. Deli very of care is organized from the perspective of the patient. This enhances continuity of care and increases patient and provider satisfaction.

These standard care plans are developed jointly by nurses, physicians and other professionals, based on expenence with the best practice for particular types of cases. The care plan for a specific patient can be individualized if necessary. But the basic course of care, including the date for discharge, is known by all hospital staff, and by the patient and their family. Patients are more involved in their care because they know what to expect at each stage. Nurses manage the overall implementation of the care plan, including the date of discharge, under one set of orders from the doctor. This means they don't have to be continually checking back with the doc- tor. The result is more effi- cient use of nurse and doc- tor time.

This reduces duplication and lack of coordination. and helps the patient feel confident their care is being well manag- ed. This is a very different picture from the "barely controlled confusion" that patients experience in some hospitals. Potential for Savings More and more Canadian hospitals are using pre- admission assessment for surgery. A few are develop- ing patient centred ap- proaches that use standar- dized care plans. There is great potential for savings if other hospitals saw the same kind of results that Grace Hospital in Ottawa achieved. For example in 1992 the average length of stay across the country for an uncomplicated birth was 3.2 days, compared to 2.9 days at Grace after im- plementing their new ap- proach. Putting aside the constant costs such as laboratory, drugs, labour and delivery, the average cost per day for routine nursing care and "hotel" costs is about $220 to $290 depending on the province. With more than 270,000 un- complicated deliveries each year in Canada, even a reduction of a fraction of a day in length of hospital stays would provide very significant system wide savings.

Even the frequent traveller who experiences some of Manhattan's finest restaurants and retail stores must wonder where average New Yorkers dine out, shop or go for a good time. If this sounds all too familiar, it's time to call the "Big Apple Greeter", New York City's "welcome visitor" program. Launched in May 1992, the Big Apple Greeter is designed to show tourists and business people there is more to New York than the traditional tourist sites. It provides an "up close and personal" view of Manhattan and the boroughs of The Bronx, Bro(►kivn, Queen's. and Staten Island. Over 2.(N)O people have utilized this free service since its incep- tion. The Greeters are volunteers from each of the boroughs, and though they are not professional tour guides, the Greeters in- troduce visitors to the neighbourhoods where they worst and live. The advan- tage for the visitor is hav- ing the opportunity to ex- perience the atmosphere and colour of neighbourhoods by par- ticipating in street festivals, eating dinner at a favourite local restaurant or strolling thrnueh a neighbourhood park... all things one may never find out about from it tradi- tional guide book. Even a walk down a city street could become a day trip in itself - tourists can drop in- to local shops and public buildings and be New Yorkers for a day. "Most travellers to New York only scratch the sur- face of the city, visiting its most famous attractions," says William Tapp&, Direc- tor Canada for the United States Travel & Tourism Administration (USTTA). "The Big Apple Greeter program is an excellent way for both "veteran" New York tourists and new travellers to see it from the point of view of a native." Catherine Brashich, associate director of the Big Apple Greeter pro- gram says, The people who contact us are tourists who want to see more and do more on their trip to New York. We receive many requests from families on holidays but we have also received re- quests from teenagers who want to meet some of their peers to seniors looking for something different." The visitor must write, telephone, or fax a request to Big Apple Greeter a minimum of three days prior to arrival, although more notice is preferred if passible.
