SHARING NEW OFFICE GLEBE TO GET ENERGY SURVEY

The Office of Energy Conservation of the Department of Energy Mines and Resources is looking for 56 houses in the Glebe in which to conduct an energy survey. The survey will be part of a program to train project leaders for similar sur - veys in 67 other communities in Canada. As a summer Job Corps Project, it will create jobs for unemployed youth and students all across Canada. The trainee project leaders will come into the house and conduct an energy survey and the householder will be asked to fill out a questionionnaire. The data will then be fed into a computer and the householder will receive individual recorn - mendations for the conservation of energy in his home. The survey will be conducted on Friday morning April 29 and again Friday morning May 6. In addition, an evening of films and slides on energy con- servation will be shown on May 4 at 7:30 p.m. in the Glebe - St. James Church Hall. And on May 5 there will be some live skits on the subject. If you are interested in having your house surveyed please call 232- 0477 (an answering service) and leave your name, address and phone nurnber before April 15.

During this year the mansard roof of Glashan was removed and replaced with a third story. The same alteration was made to the First Avenue Public School in 1907.

In the facade, this was notice able in the way the architect's method of diminishing the importance of the decoration of eachstorey was used in the third storey The same action was taken in the addition of the third floor to the facade of Glashan. On the first level the decoration is complex. Carved, wooden window frames, elevated brickwork surrounding the first floor windows, and alter - nating bands of stone and brick courses contribute to this complexity. The same arrangement is repeated on the second floor. But here it is not as complicated. Lacking on the second level are the patterned wooden window frames and the arched brick decoration surrounding the windows. The sanie arrangement is used on the third storey.. However, here it is very simple. The elevated, brick designs, topping the windows, consist of one band of bricks whereas the brickwork on other windows is made up of double rows or contrasting patterns of bricks. The same effect is used in the single band of the stone course beneath the windows. SUNDAY AT 4 EXPERT

MONTHLY COMMENTARY BY ELD.A THOMAS

E. S. L. AT G. ST. J.

The hum of conversation, a burst of laughter, the smell of coffee, someone preparing juice and cookies for children a - Koffee Klatsch ? No, the experience of the English-as-a-Second from left to right; Gemma Pagotto, Barbara Birtch Language program at Glebe - St. James United Church. Maria da Silva, Annunziato Lorusso. On Wednesday mornings the group takes over the kitchen,lounge, nursery and several class- rooms in the church. Here 20 t030 mothers and children meet with 8 to10 volunteers to learn English in a relaxed and friendly atrnosphere. No stuffy lectures in this school! The students are from many languages and cultures. Most have heard of the program through word-of mouth. Volunteers come from the community and the church. Although there are over 80 E.S.L. programs in the province, 6 in Ottawa, this one is unique in being staffed entirely by unpaid teachers. This is a deliberate decision by the volunteers. Materials,such as film strips, books and tapes are provided by the province; space, children's toys and moral support are provided by the church, but the friendship and personal commitment come from the volunteers. Program co-ordinator, Nancy Alexander, and her staff feel that personal involvrnent is the core of their program. They come not only to teach a language but to share an experience. Their aim is to provide an informal atmosphere in which mothers and children can learn English through conversation with other mothers and children. In most of the other E.S.L. programs there are 8 - 10 students per teacher. Here there are 2 or 3. Because of the small classes students can learn at their own pace, progressing from basic vocabulary to conversation. Women who might be too shy to speak in front of a large class feel more comfort- able trying new words with an instructor they have come to know well. The aim of the volunteers is to help the students to feel a part of the community, to gain confidence in speaking, and to be less dependent on their husbands in dealing with the mechanics of everyday life in their new country. Thus, as well as vocabulary, olunteers teach students how to write notes to their children's teachers, how to fill out forms, how to deal with institutions of society such as banks from left to right; Tina Bellotti, Anna and the Post Office. Calvano, Lockhar,-, Gmditta Martignago. While their mothers are learning about these unfamiliar Canadian customs the children, Co ordinator Nancy under the supervision of Ruth Alexander, standing. Hill and Dorothy Rust, are building vocabulary as well as block towers,playing with words as well as with play dough. It is not all lessons and hard work though. At Christmas the whole group has a party to which each person brings some delicacy from her own culture. There are special occasions as well, such as baby showers for expectant mothers. It is clear that in this class learning is fun.

EDEN GARDEN LANDSCAPING Seeding - Sodding MILES FOR MILLIONS Evergreen Shrubs & Hedges All Kinds of Stonework Garden Maintenance A NEW TWIST Free Estimates by Sue Pike JOHN KRAJCSI 104 Renfrew Ave., Ottawa The Ottawa Miles for Millions Committee has come up with a couple of inteiesting new Call Evenings 232-4452 wrinkles for this years walk on Saturday May 7. The multitude of runners and joggers in the Glebe will be pleased to hear that a half marathon run has been incorporated into this year's "long walk". The 13 mile marathon will start on Parliament Hill at 9 a. m. with runners registering at the Health and Fitness table by 8:30 am. The runner's route will take them through the first 4 check points across the Mc - Donald Cartier Bridge and back again to the Parliament Buildings. People taking part in the hall marathon can have their cards stamped at the Trouble Tables at these check points to avoid line ups. It is hoped that runners will sport identification of any fitness or running group to which they might belong and above all, to get sponsors for their run. Another interesting addition to this years walk will be a "Representative Walk" in which representatives from business and industry, government departments, Ernbassies, churches, and non - government agencies will participate as a group. Again, these groups are asked to iden - tify themselves. The "Representative Walk" will start at the Rideau Lawn Tennis Club at 12:30 p. m. and continue over a 9.8 kilometer route to Vincent Massey Park via Alta Vista Park. Re - freshments and music will abound and there will be a demonstration of the fine art of foot bathing at the Vincent Massey check point. Earl Turcotte, assistant co -ordinator of this year's Miles for Millions walk, says that "although there always has been lots of group support for the walk, groups have not previously identified themselves". Of course, the main emphasis, as always, will be on the long walk, which covers a distance of 56 kilometers (35 miles) and will begin at 7 am on Parliament Hill. Mayor Greenberg will open the Walk-a -thon. The theme of this year's Walk is "Be a sponsered walker". We've had people cover the entire distance without a single sponser, which is rather a pointless exercise" says Mr. Turcotte. The money collected from the Miles for Millions Walk goes to support Development in Canada and the Third World. Page 7 HANDA NATURAL FOODS GRAND REOPENING

FIRST LADY OF STILL PHOTOGRAPHY by Kent Gooderham Lorraine Monk's office at the Still Photography Division of the National Film Board is like Lorraine herself -- elegant and efficient. That fact won't surprise anyone who knows any - thing about still photography in Canada. Mrs. Monk's list of accomplishments since becoming executive director of the Still Photography Division in 1960 reads like a history of pho- tography in Canada itself. The day I visited her she had just received a personal let- ter from Prime Minister Trudeau thanking her for her most re - cent achievement, BETWEEN FRIENDS/ ENTRE AMIS. Produced to honour the United States during the celebration of their bi - centennial, it has been acclaimed throughout that country. It won the best printed book award at the International Gallery of Superb Printing competition in August this year. But Lorraine Monk is not only concerned with excellence. She wants to reach people and sees photography as today's great folk art. BE'FWEEN FRIENDS proves this point. It is a corn - mercial as well as artistic success. No other hard cover book in Canada ever sold as many copies in such a short time -- 170,000 copies by December 1976. In addition to the book, exhibitions were produced which travelled to both Canadian and American cities. The photo- graphic critic for the ATLANTIC GAZETTE had this to say: ''BETWEEN FRIENDS is a paean of light and life. , . and if you don't go to see it you will have missed a visual tour de force as grand as the Tutenkamen Exhibition." Not a surprise! Lorraine was determined to ring all the bells finest design, finest printing plus a commercial success.

The Glebe got its fotuth book store April 2 when Octopus opened its doors at 837 Bank Street, between Fourth and Fifth. It joins Patrick McGahern Books, Book Bazaar and Bank Street Books -- obviously Bank Street is fast becoming a book lovers' alley! Octopus, unlike the other book stores, sells only new books and is run by a Cooperative. They closed the store at Somerset and Lyon because they wanted to expand and thought a strong community like the Glebe would be a good place to move to. Last week, the Glebe Report talked to End Moscovitch,a long time Coop member,who runs the store. Formerly a TV shop, the store was in the last stages of total reconstruction. Shelves were going up, and plaster walls coming down to reveal the warrn pattern of old brick beneath. Three women from the cooperative were busy sanding shelves. "We carry a wide range of hard covers, paper backs and periodicals, " Enid told us, "but we specialize in progressive books -- alternatives -- titles that are not easily available in other book stores. We have a large number of books on socialism, economics, labour, a lot of Canadian,,, a good literature section, health and nutrition, radical psychology and a comprehensive in7omen's section. We are expanding all lines, but especially the children's section where we're concentrating on non-sexist, alternative model books-- also inexpensive!" said Enid who believes children's books should not cost an arrn and a leg. Octopus will carry lots of periodicals 120 of them at last count -- plus cook books feat - uring ethnic recipes, health food books, plant books and "how-to" books. Octopus also plans a record collection for the future -- again music not easily available elsewhere such as traditional American and British folk music and the music of emerging cultures in Africa and Latin America. We asked about the Cooperative that runs Octopus, making it an unique book store/book club. Enid is the first paid member and the only paid member. The rest, about 25 people, Octopus volunteers Betsy Moore and Sabrina Mathews are volunteers, and will staff the book store in four hour shifts under Enid's direction. The photo by Toby Sanger Cooperative got going around 1970, a spin-off from the Ottawa underground paper, also . called Octopus. The newspaper ran a book ordering service which eventually mushroomed into Octopus Books. The Cooperative started with a small amount of capital and a great deal of enthusiasm and the book store prospered. Members suggest books to be carried. "We Imported gifts and linens at attractive prices. ask people with expertise in their fields. That's how we have been able to build up such a Ceramic tiles .

by Monica Pine

The Den-Art Gallery at 783 Bank Street held an exhibition of 30 works by Brenda Carter from March 16th-19th. This artist showed a selection of paintings of birds and wild animals in natural settings, using egg tempera, acrylic and water colour, and some etchings. Detailed and life-like representations of wildlife included a close-up study of a Mother Owl with her chicks nestling in tundra; a large stark northern landscape in which a single muskox presides in the middle distance; single birds by water, and a polar bear in deep snow. One smaller painting of a screech owl in rich wooded foliage glowed with an orange light peeping through the trees. There were also carefully Bruce Heggtveit studied portraits of the red fox, weasel, seal, falcon and in the 1970's is emerging as an other rare birds. important Canadian landscape artist.

According to the calls Mr. Samuel has had from Glebe parents, some people feel that education in neighbourhood schools such as Mutchmor and First Avenue is suffering as a result of intensified French instruction. Apparently at a recent social gathering, a Glebe Collegiate student indicated to Samuel that there was a lack of understanding being felt by ethnic students at the school. Trustee Samuel stops short of saying that the student indicated racism exists in the school, but he did feel that the concern was worth mentioning as a problem that may face the community. On both issues John Samuel was quick to point out that he would need to know more before coming to any conclusions and indicated that he was looking into the matter. I'd suggest that anyone who has any comments on these or other issues telephone Trustee Samuel (733-9422). Trustee Samuel emphasises - call him, get him involved and you will be in a position to judge him for yourself. Obviously it is just too soon to judge how well Mr. Samuel will serve Glebe residents or to what extent he will get to know their concerns, four months out of a two year term of office is just not long enough. One thing we can be certain of, our community needs people on The Ottawa Board of Education who know Glebe residents' concerns and will champion them at The Board, whether or not Trustee Samuel measures up to our expectations, only time will tell.

That is rather a lot for one team, but obviously too few for two. The club will have to decide what to do about the Peewees very soon, but if 8 or 10 more players came forward a big effort would be made to launch a second Peewee team.
