(Photo -Bob Watson) The Tulip Tribute: Shore To Shore On Sept. 28. Durham Region and the Dutch Club of Durham Region joined Canadians across the coun- try in "The Tulip Tribute: Shore to Shore". This na- tional program of com- memoration honours Cana- dians, and the friendship between Canada and the Netherlands since World War II. As a special tribute, the Dutch Club of Durham Region has asked for Durham Region's assistance in the laying out of a tulip tribute garden located at Regional Head- quarters, 605 Rossland Rd. E. in Whitby. This commemorative tulip garden, which will bloom in the spring of 1995 as a 24'X12' Canadian flag, will consist of red and white tulips. The garden, prepared by Durham Region will host 2000 tulips which will be planted by volunteers from the Dutch Club of Durham Region. Each flower in the garden will be dedicated to the memory of someone who served, either overseas or at home, in the war effort. Collectively, the garden will represent Canada's ef- forts for the restoration of world peace. "Durham Region and the Dutch Club of Durham Ronald Martino and Son Funeral Directors (Formerly of West Hill) Brock Road Chapel 1057 Brock Road (just south of 4011 Pickering Family owned and operated. (416) 686-5589 Region take pride in par- ticipating in the com- memoration of the 50th an- niversary of the end of World War II," said Regional Chairman Gary Herrema. It is fitting that the tulip has been chosen as the symbol of this national commemoration. In 1945 the Dutch Royal Family sent 10,000 tulips to Canada as a thank you for Canada's role in the liberation of the Netherlands, and for their assistance in the safe refuge of members of the Dutch Royal Family. Each year since then another gift of tulip bulbs has arrived, and each year the tulips have been planted in Canada's Capital Region representative of spring. peace and international friendship.

October 5, 1994 Opinion a page for expression for you and us About Our Military "Canada, Can We Stand on Guard for Thee?" is a 32 page bilingual booklet that raises many penetrating questions regarding Canada's National Defence policies and strategies and how they relate to our future responsibilities with respect to the protection of our nation and our role in world peacekeeping measures. The booklet represents the views of seven prominent business leaders who have a military involvement and a grave concern about Canada's military future. John G. Bourne. CVO. ED. CD, is the Honorary Colonel (Retired) of the Black Watch (Royal Highland Regiment of Canada) : Peter A.G. Cameron. CD, is a Brigadier -General of the 48th Highlanders of Canada; Arthur J.E. Child. OC, OGH, is Honorary Colonel of The Communication and Electronics Branch. Canadian Forces: Fred P. Mannix, CD. is the Honorary Colonel of the Calgary Highlanders: Gerald J. Maier. is the Honorary Colonel of the King's Own Calgary Regiment; Jean P.W. Ostiguy• OC. B.Sc. Mil., LL.D. is the Honorary Colonel, le Regiment de Maisonneuve: Thomas E. Price. CD. is Honorary Colonel of the Black Watch ( Royal Highland Regiment of Canada). The booklet reflects not only their views but the opinions and concerns of many informed patriotic Canadians who helped by providing their input. The authors state "We know the Government of Canada and the leadership within the Department of National Defence must make tough decisions. They need to be financially responsible vet carry out our Nation's responsibilities to protect our shores and help the peoples of the world along with their sons and daughters• vet unborn• to live their lives, free from the ravages of war and tyranny." The booklet raises questions, which can lead to better decisions to permit Canada's military role to be truly effective within the bounds of our financial abilities. We Need Reserve Forces by (Bob Watton The above stony by seven business leaders about our military forces should bring forward a serous discussion an this important issue. We don't have sufficient public funds to keep one million Canadian_, in our regular forces but perhaps a miUim reserve forces could be supported with about one-third to - nne-quarter of the money. Before World War II many of is Canadian(, were members of the reserve forces in Toronto. The training is. great for evernvxu and when a national emergency occurs - like World War II - we reservists were ready for action in a full time arm % Another point is that it would be valuable if all those who are unemployed could be placed in the military for a period of time. The procedure could resolve the individual unemployed problem and at the same time train them for possible future military action. Those of u_, who have been twice in the R.C.A.F. and twice in the Army's Signal Corps, have been given very valuable training for all aspect, of life. Letter To The Editor Watch Your Wallets Dear Sir: Taxpayers. hold onto your wallets' Nov. 21st is Trough Day. That's the day when 52 MPs first elected just six years ago will qualify for gold-plated pensions worth about S53 million. It's true. After only six years in office, MPs qualify for a super -rich pension that has unlimited protection against inflation, regardless of their age. What they call a pension is really a cash -for -life lottery that none of us in the private sector could ever hope to afford. Prime Minister Jean Chretien promised during the last federal election to reform this outrageous pension plan but to date has dome nothing. He and his colleagues may need a reminder. That's why we urge your readers to contact their MPs to demand that Parliament bring MP's pensions into line with what's available in the private sector before those 52 MPs ICKfRIO news PObllshed every Weu::resday by Watson PubllsNng Company Limited, Est. 1950 Office b Address: 150 Milner Ave. Unit 35.

Tax Changes Affect Most Cottage Owners If you own a cottage you should take note of a recent tax change. This year's federal budget eliminated the $100,000 lifetime capital gains exemption. That's the exemption you could claim to reduce the taxes you'd have to pay on your capital gains. If you sell your cottage for more than it cost you. the difference is considered to be a capital gain. You will have to report this amount on your income tax return. You don't even need to sell your property to realize a capital gain. If you give your cottage away, Revenue Canada considers you to have sold it and, if it's worth more than you paid for it, you'll still have to report any capital gain on your income tax return. Although the budget eliminated the exemption for property sold after February 22, 1994, if you haven't already used up your $100,000 exemption, you'll have one more chance to benefit from it. You don't have to sell or give away your property to do so. You can file an "election" with your 1994 income tax return to report the capital gain that you earned on your cottage before March 1, 1992. The 1992 budget had already eliminated the exemption for capital gains on cottages. Should you file an election? Basically, by filing an election, you're reducing any capital gain that you may have when you eventually sell or give away your cottage. As a result, the income tax you'd have to pay in that year would also be reduced. Even though most cottage owners would benefit from filing an election, it is your choice. And, it is important to note that if you do file an election, the amount of capital gains you report will be added to your 1994 net income. If the unused portion of your $100,000 exemption is more than the gains you elect to report, you will usually not have to pay tax on this amount. However, filing an election may reduce the amount of some of vour benefits and credits which are based on net income. These include the Child Tax Benefit; the goods and services tax credit: the guaranteed income supplement: provincial tax credits: and some non-refundable tax credits such as the age amount and medical expenses. It may subject you to minimum tax, increase some provincial taxes, and require you to repay all or part of any social benefits you received in 1994 such as Old Age Securitv pension benefits. You may also have to pay your 1995 income tax by instalments. You should compare the amount you will lose in benefits and credits over the next year to the amount you will save in income tax when you eventually dispose of your cottage. If you rely heavily on benefits and credits, you should review your personal situation and decide what is more favourable to you before filing the election. Remember that if you choose not to file the election, when you do eventually sell your cottage, your benefits and credits may be affected and you'll likely have to pay tax on the capital gain at that time. If you think you might want to file an election, you can pick up an information package which includes the election form from your local income tax office in late December. In the meantime, there is something you could do now to make filing your election easier. Estimating the value of'your cottage You'll need a reasonable estimate of what your cottage could have sold for on Feb. 22, 1994, if it had been for sale. You should get this estimate as soon as possible since this may become more difficult as time passes. You do not need to obtain a professional appraisal of your property. Instead, you can find this information in real estate pamphlets or newspapers which list the prices of similar cottages in the same area. Provincial land registry or land title offices could also provide information on actual sale prices of similar properties. You should keep a record of the information you used to estimate your cottage's fair market value, or a copy of the professional appraisal in case Revenue Canada asks to see it. If you need more information on capital gain(, and your cottage. call Revenue Canada for help.

Provincial Leaders To Discuss Women's Issues At Public Forum Ontario's three provincial party leaders will discuss women's issues during a pre-election public forum presented by the Ontario Advisory Council on Women's Issues at the St. Lawrence Centre, Wed. Oct. 12, at 7:30 p.m. Called "Face to Face with the Provincial Leaders", this will be the first time that Bob Rae, Lyn McLeod and Mike Harris will appear together publically to discuss topics relevant to women's lives. The event will be moderated by Council president Jacqueline Pelletier and all council members will be present. Each leader will speak for a set time (eight minutes) and then answer questions from the women in the audience. "We believe in facilitating women's access to government. As Ontario heads towards a provincial election, we're delighted that women in Toronto and area will have this unprecedented opportunity to hear all three leaders speak about things that women want to know about. Where does each part stand on childcare, healthcare, education reform? How will each party encourage women to participate more fully in Ontario's economic renewal?" asked Jacqueline Pelletier, council president. "We don't want to hear about past achievements and we don't want the leaders to spend their time attacking each other. We want to hear what each leader's plan is for the future, what each party will do to get Ontario rolling, and to find out each party's vision of how women fit into in September and October Ferrero Canada will donate 1 1 2 cents for every package of Tic Tac sold to Big Brothers and linters of Canada.

It addresses the future of Catholic educa- tion as it applies to children prior to their attendance at school, to their experiences in The Early Years, to the curriculum in Catholic schools, to assessment and evaluation, and to the preparation of Catholic teachers for teaching in Ontario's Catholic schools. MSSB will request that the government ensure that the development and implementation of any of the initiatives contained in the brief be accompanied by adequate provincial fun- ding, where required, for initial start up and ongoing maintenance; and that the overall allocation of government funds for education purposes be augmented to ensure cur- rent grant levels and pro- grams are not adversely affected. Liberal Party of Ontario Better Schools Position Paper MSSB has prepared a response to the Ontario Liberal Party's "Better Schools Position Paper 1994". The paper outlines the party's position on educa- tion and sets out a series of guiding principles and recommendations for im- proving education in On- tario schools. The paper proposes solu- tions or recommendations which are intended to: develop standards and their measure; to prepare students for jobs and their place in the world; to ex- tensively involve parents and the community; to reduce duplication of ser- vices and make schools safer places to learm. While MSSB supports these areas, the paper is weak with regard to im- plementation strategies and it is unclear with regard to the Liberals' position on the autonomy of separate schools. MSSB will also advise that the paper does not come out strongly with a position with respect to correcting the inequity in funding bet- ween separate versus public school boards. The comments will be forwarded to Liberal party leader Lyn McLeod and to the Minister of Education dr Training and Ontario Separate School Trustees' Association for informa- tion. 9l6 OR SMU: NE DO ?TALL' CROSS MOVERS Offices. houses i apts.

October 5, 1994 Bill Watt's Worlds ON STAGE ONE: There is much of Lucy Maud Montgomery in her books which, by the way, were intended for a general audience, not just young girls. In fact, L. M. Mon- tgomery is as close to the Anne of Green Gables as Charles Dickes is to David Copperfield. Anne, however, is idealized. Lucy Maud, as noted by Mary Rubio, her official biographer, could indeed be as loveable as Anne but also as rigid as Marilla Cuthbert, as overbearing as Mrs. Lynde and as pas- sionate as Leslie Moore who are all characters "created" by her pen. This is evident from the lady's personal journals which are now in public domain. Playwright Don Hannah has tapped that source to create The Wooden Hill now in its world premiere at the St. Lawrence Centre. It's a bittersweet work filled with unequal moments of joy and sor- row. Beginning in 1942, shortly before her life end- ed. Lucy Maud is seen as an elderly woman unhappy with the world and her perceived lot in it. Characters from her past life come to present life and we see her relationship with them as well as how they became part of her We shall probably never know if those writings were opportunistic - in the best sense of the word - or cathartic but that's academic. What's impor- tant is that which is seen on stage and it's quite master- ful. Anne is not portrayed throughout her life by several actresses. She is played only by Rita Howell, a lady of mature years, without change of costume AFFORDABLE Steam carpet cleaning services • cars,vans,tnreks.buses • residential • commercial Call Jams 292.4as0 Kish 291-6219 Need Extra Incoate? st 500 monthly Stuffing envelopes at home • Free information Send stamped self-addres- sed envelope to A.LV.

Yet, such is the power and skill of Miss Howell that one sees all of the Annes; young, mature and elderly further to her many moods; joyous, sad and dramatic. It's truly a fine performance and one already notes that this year's Dora race will sure- ly be a tight one with Miss Howell's entry into it. Of course, she'll be nominated! The balance of the large cast as directed by Bob Baker performs well and omissions of names here are solely because of space. John Jarvis is quietly ef- fective as her son Stuart in manhood: a man still car- rying the emotional burden of a less than completely happy childhood. Then, there's young Andrea Mor- ris, the model of the idealiz- ed Anne. Special mention, too, for Michael Hanrahan. He was an excellent Malvolio in last summer's Canadian Stage presenta- tion of Twelfth Night. Here he excels in the dual roles of Lucy's dashing father and a twittish but well in- tended early suitor. The title is from a down East expression about go- ing to bed. That wooden hill is part of the excellent set design by Sue LePage who also does authentic work with the costume design. The Wooden Hill is scheduled to run until Oct. 22nd.

Watt. Sensible Footwear is the group name of a trio of at- tractive English women who perform satirical com- edy in dialogue and song. They are appearing at Tar- ragon arragon Mainspace until this Sunday with a presentation aptly titled Poking Fun. They're pleasant singers. sensitive actresses and their material seems to be clever and insightful. Truth to tell, we couldn't make out most of it. Perhaps it's their accents or maybe it was poor acoustics because of a sparse audience on the night of our attendance. Whatever the cause, we simply couldn't catch the words until the trio pumped up the volume and went for the jugular of bad taste, as per the following. "Never use a condom twice.

ON STAGE THREE: Solar Stage in the Madison Centre ( just south of the North York Perform- ing Arts Centre) is presen- ting a series of short works from the various Fringe Festivals that are held around the country. We've caught up with two of them titled Mother of Pearl and Jewel. The first features Catherine Hayos and Rena Polley who wrote it in col- laboration with Howie Wiseman who also directs. It's an interesting comedic piece about a young woman returning home from a broken marriage to her domineering mother. The theme is familiar but, apparently to compensate for familiarity (why?), it's presented in choreographic The concept is clever but wears thin after a while. (One thinks particularly of the spaghetti eating bit in which mother and daughter attack their plates with forks in a seem- ing recollection of Chaplin's Gold Rush) . Bet- ter by far to concentrate on the dialogue. It's literate and witty and owes no apology - Catherine Hayos, a nubile Susan Sarandon look -a -like is the mother. She's good - very good - though rather too arch. Director Wiseman should perhaps give more atten- tion to characterization than body movements that are too clever by half. The daughter is played - literauy - by robust Rena Polley. What she does with the role - that of a child woman - she does well. Mother of Pearl sits well in one's memory but as a minor curio instead of the searing piece it might have, and deserves to have, been. Jewel is a one woman play written by Joan MacLeod and performed in a 60 minute plus tour de force by Catherine McNal- ly. The latter is a splendidly junoesque woman who could, one suggests, be at ease with Greek T rartedv. (We can see her as Medea) . In Jewel she is a Peace River Valley widow recounting her life story from age six to the present. It's Valentine's Day 1965, three years after the death of her husband in the Ocean Ranger oil rig disaster off the Newfoundland coast. Surprisingly, it's funny at times ( "Every dog north of Edmonton has wolf blood ... even Chihuahuas") but, for the most part, it's a touching revelation of a woman wanting love all her life, finding and losing it. Ms. MacLeod's script has much of Saroyan about it but the strength of Jewel is the performance of Catherine McNally. She's funny yet sad, strong but vulnerable, innocent but sensual. ( Her depiction of orgasm is lyrical, not salacious). All in all, a quite remarkable perfor- mance. And, taken all in all, "Grease" Coming To O'Keefe Centre „Grease", one of Broad- way's longest running musicals, comes to the O'Keefe Centre for eight exciting performances, Oct. 18 to 23. "Grease" stars Sally Struthers (TV's All In The Family) as the tough English teacher Miss Lynch; Davy Jones (The Moniees) plays Vince Fon- taine, the DJ with the tiger skin coat and the moves to match and Rex Smith (TV's As The World Turns and Pirates of Penzance on Broadway) as the super cool, Danny Zuko. "Grease", takes a hilarious, tuneful and lov- ing look at what it was like growing -up in the super cool 'so's with the raun- chiest and funniest gang of high school students you'll ever meet. Taking place in a time when hot -rod loving boys in black leather jackets wore greasy coifs and boy crazy girls wore beehive hairdos, white bob- by socks and skin-tight pedal pushers, "Grease" is complete with drive-in pas- sion pts, sock hops and pa- jma Parties - This new production is directed and choreograph- ed by Jeff Calhoun, who was nominated for a Tony Award for his choreography. Calhoun recently staged "Tommy Tune Tonight" for Broad- way as well as serving as Associate Choreographer on the musical, "The Will Rogers Follies". Tickets range in price from $25 to $65 and can be purchased at the O'Keefe Centre Box Office, any TicketMaster location, or by calling (416) 872-2262 to charge. Forum About Depression In association with Men- tal Illness Awareness Week 1994, a public forum on "Depression Across the Life Span" will be held at Sunnybrook Health Science Centre, Harrison Hall, E -Ground 21, = Bayview Ave. on Thurs. Oct. 13 from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. A panel of speakers will talk about depression in youth, adulthood and old age - Moderated by CFRB's Andy Barrie, speakers will include a consumer panel and the following physi- cians from Sunnybrook Science Centre, University of Toronto: Dr. George Papatheodorou, Head, in- patient Adolescent Psychiatry; Dr. Nathan Hermann, Head, Division of Geriatric Psychiatry; Dr. Richard Guscott, Head, Mood Disorders Program.

Regrettably, the run is scheduled to end this Saturday. Do try to see these two works before then. You'll be sorry if you don't. AT THE O'KEEFE: Grease, the musical that's now attained virtual cult states is coming to town again to The O'Keefe Centre from Oct. 18th to the 23rd. This is a new production from Tommy Tune who, no doubt, has closely supervis- ed the choreography of director i choreographer Jeff Calhoun. The two have a close association. Mr. Calhoun staged the recent Tommy Tune Tonight. He was also associate choreographer for The Will Rogers Follies which we're still awaiting in Toronto. This production will star Sally Struthers (Archie's daughter in All In The Family) in the expanded role of Miss Lvnch, Davv Jones as Vince Fontaine the D.J. and Rex Smith as Danny. The advance word is that Mr. Smith dances as well as the exciting Adrian Zmed seen recerilty in the same role on the much smaller Stage West stage. Davy Jones is possibly best remembered as one of the TV Monkees but he has considerable stage experience. If our memory serves us correctly he might have succeeded Anthony Newley as The Artful Dodger in the original production of Oliver. The Broadway critics were less than wild over this newest production but, we suspect, they were being excessively critical because of Tommy Tune's continuing string of successes. As for Your Column, we're anticipating once again "the glory that was Ouch! INSIDE STUFF Vivienne Kugler has moved over from the Massey Hall i Roy Thomson operation to become the Public Relations Manager at The O'Keefe succeeding Julia Gallagher who is now with Livent. Welcome aboard Vivienne. And, it's nice to hear again from gentle Julie Giles. Yes, the lovely publicist has returned from her too long ( for us) sojourn in the South of France and is back in the swing of the entertainment scene. including the current tour of Raffh. We had to miss the children's entertainer in concert last Saturday at Massey Hall but are delighted to have his latest Troubadour album, Bananaphone. Review will follow but, for now, we think it should suffice to say that among the accompanying artists on it are Shari Ulrich, Jane Mortifee and Linda Kidder. Good stuff. Thanks Julie and welcome back. We've missed you. IN CONCERT The North York Symphony begins its new season at the North York Centre with an evening performance on Oct.13th. Pianist Andr6 Laplante will be the soloist. Among the works to be played are Prokofnev's Piano Concerto No. 3 in C, the Carnival Overture by Morawetz and Dvorak's Symphony No. S. All will be conducted by Kerry Stratton with, one is certain, his usual clan. The helluvitall is that he's so darkly handsome. Somehow, it doesn't seem fair.

To be shown are such delights as the audition film for You Bet Your Life and the unfinished pilot for The Deputy Seraph. Sounds tike much fun. Wonder if it will be mentioned that mother Minnie Marx once approached a very young Benny Kubelsky to travel with the singing brothers as their music director. Latter day audiences knew Mr. Kubelsky better as Jack Benny. Narration is by Leslie Nielsen sans, one hopes, his usual whoopee cushion. MIND GAMES Herewith, a reminder that the second annual Rendezvous With Madness at the Workman Auditorium ends this Friday. Rendezvous is a film and video festival that's part of Mental Illness Awareness Week. The enterprise is a laudable one and mindful of the fact that emotional and mental illness is all 'round us. It should be met head on with kindness and understanding in full measure. Admission to all events and happenings is free but a donation of $5 or more is suggested. Sight unseen we're recommending the short video Dial on. It's based on science fiction writer Philip Dick's novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

Highland Creek Women's Institute by Evelyn Dempsey The Highland Creek Women's Institute resum- ed its regular meetings Sept. 14 at St. Joseph's Roman Catholic Church in Highland Creek. Sixteen members were welcomed back by President Mrs. Mary Miller after the sum- mer recess. All business was addressed. Friendship convener Mrs. Pat Graham, reported having sent birth- day cards to several members during July and August and a 50th anniver- sary greeting to Rev. Wesley A. and Mrs. Morris. Birthday greetings were extended to Mesdames Min Bolton and Jessie Bartley who celebrated birthdays in September. Mrs. Miller reported that Scarborough Fair 1994 would be held Nov. 5-12 at Eglinton Square Shopping Area. The theme of the fair is to be "Field, Food and Family". Koula of West Hill Com- munity Services attended the meeting and spoke of the need of the community lunch and asked that the in- stitute members continue holding the luncheons. The first luncheon of this season is to be Oct. 4 at St. Dunstan's Anglican Church. Mrs. Lois McAuley, Family and Consumer Af- fairs convener, gave a very interesting talk about "Boudoir Dolls". Dolls originally were associated with children as playthings. A year or two before World War I, Paul Poiret, a Parisian Designer, sug- gested that all fashionable women should carry dolls, or at least have them grac- ing their boudoirs or as or- naments in the drawing room. The dolls were in- troduced at the Paris fashion show of 1910 with the models carrying dolls with adult -looking features and dressed in matching fashion clothes. The Boudoir Doll became all the rage. The rage stret- ched beyond Paris and by 1920 the dolls were popular in England, Germany, the United States and Canada. The Boudoir Doll was a fashion whim, and the novelty soon wore off when women tired of them. As a result the dolls were cheap- ly made with bodies of muslin or cheap cotton. straw stuffed or filled with kapok or sawdust. The heads were of composition with painted features, the hair, a wig of mohair or black silk thread. Lois has a boudoir doll in her collec- tion and had it displayed. Mesdames Jessie Bartley and Mary Miller attended a craft workshop at Vandorf Sept. 26. As a result of the course, they will be teaching the art to other members. Events to keep in mind.

If you just said to yourself, "I've never heard of celiac disease - What is it?" then the need for awareness is obvious. Celiac disease is a condition in which the lining of the small intestine is damaged by gluten (a protein) found in wheat, rye, triticale, barley and oats and in foods containing ingredients derived from these grains. Celiac disease seriously inhibits the body's ability to absorb proteins, vitamins, carbohydrates and minerals. There are thousands of people in Canada suffering from this difficult to diagnose intestinal disease. The Canadian Celiac Association is actively attempting to contact undiagnosed sufferers of celiac disease to provide information, to help protect them from needless pain, damage to the small intestine and malnutrition. If you think you or someone you know may have celiac disease, contact your doctor and / or the Canadian Celiac Association. how to access them, creative parenting trr '- ques. and opportunities to plan and set future goals.
