By Halena Jeletzky

Parades were a favourite pastime :nearly 20th Century Ottawa as one can see by the number and hic Gingebead variety of parades reported upon in local newspapers. The Summer Carnival and Old Boys Reunion of 1907 were especially interesting celebrations. This event, officially opened July 29, 1907, was dedicated to the reunion of Ottawa's old boys. Ottawa's streets were decorated with flags, pennants, banners, oriental lanterns and floral displays for this event. "In Upper Town, in Lower Town and out on the Glebe... the story is the sanie. The Man" decorations are general and it is impossible to find an Ottawa street this week where there are not some IN NEW AUDITORIUM flags to welcome those who have come back to the city of their birth, " (Journal, July 30, 1907, page 9). The Carnival highlights included the Grand Venetian Night, the Night Shirt Parade, the Illuminated IN THE EVENING. Automobile and Bicycle Parade and the Grand Fancy Dress Roller Skating Carnival. Perhaps, the most spectacular of these was the Venetian Night. According to the Journal, shortly after 9 o'clock, the long S. In (I5 III line of boats making up this Aquatic Parade began to move away from the brightly lit Rideau Canoe A Club House at Lansdowne Park and the Driveway (the structure no longer exists). Leading the procession were whistling steam boats outlined with candle-lit lanterns. Following them were decorated canoes and v nn-.1 k.pt row boats. The procession moved past the illuminated houses on both shores of the canal and the bands ,11, II II,: 9 ,' of musicians who were strategically placed along the Driveway. (Journal, July 31, 1907). Upon "..1 V,C,I1 t !IN approaching , "the long glittering line" of boats turned for the return trip. It was at this point that the acuatic fireworks began. A tug pulling a barge pulled out for the return trip. The blazing "coloured lights, fivers, bangers and biters" on the barge aroused roars of applause from the 'Ex' ad from Ottawa Evening spectators lining the banks of the Canal. Journal, circa summer 1906. Landsowne Park, the point from which this parade began, was the scene of other carnival celebrations. The public was invited to trotting matches, athletic games and a military tattoo and the Park. Possibly, to attract attention to these events, photographs of Howick Hall were published in the Journal (August 1, 1907, page 9). This structure, designed by Noffke and Northwood was named after the estate of Earl Grey, the Governor General of Canada. (1904- 1911). Built to accomodate vaudeville shows, comic ACivic opera and political campaigns, the structure was formally opened by Sir Wilfrid Laurier in 1906.

BLAIS 238-7783 Only burn wood from trees which were alive when felled and dried for at least one season. Dead elm, plentiful in this area, "burns like church- yard mould." Green wood also burns slowly. A slow fire does not heat the flue sufficiently and the chimney fire-causing creosote deposits are increased. Reputable wo,d ce alers use recognizable invoices and will certity the wood types and level of seasoning on their invoice. Don't be embarrassed to strip back the bark or even split a few places to check for dampness and stickiness of green wood before acceptance. Reputable dealers like careful customers. The going price is $35 for a 'short cord" (16"x4'x8') stacked and with an armful of kindling. Don't be fooled. A short cord is only 1/3 of a long cord (4'x4'x8'). I burn up to four short cords in one fireplace which is used about four times weekly. Purchasing wood a year in advance ensures that the wood is seasoned when used. A better price can be negotiated for quantity purchases and green wood, which you will not use for a year, should be cheaper.

As head of training and technical studies for re- storation at Indian and Northern Affairs his most recent trip took him to Central Sahara in November. He was the Canadian Repeesentative in a group of international experts on a working seminar sponsored by Unesco and the Algerian Government, to study the conservation of rock art in Tassili. Coloured slides of this journey show the extraordinary rock formations, incredible contrasting landscape of high perilous cliffs, canyons, majestic gorges and windswept desert, burning in the mid- day sun and bitterly cold at night. A fantastic wealth of rock frescoes exist there, some of which are 8,000 years old, presumed to be the largest collection of prehistoric art in the world, ranging from tiny figures and animals a few inches high to a great white God 18 feet tall. One member of the study-group was Henri Lhote, the well known French artist who i n 1956 took an expedition from Paris to Tassili to record and document some 800 of these paintings for the first time, under extremely hard conditions. Earlier last year Martin went to Dealy Island in the High Arctic. Seven archaeol ogists and con- servators spent three weeks working on the restoration of a storage house left by Captain Henry Killet in 1853, which had since been occupied by polar bears as well as people. Before coming to Canada seven years ago Martin worked on archaeological sites in Greece and Iran. In Australia he surveyed and recorded aboriginal prehistoric sites, and in Spain visited many pre - historic caves to study rock paintings. Born in London England, he graduated from the Architect Association in 1961, then lived in Turkey for three years, lecturing on the conservation of historical sites, art and science. He has done numerous drawings for many books, including the "Illustrated History of World Architecture" Palaeol- ithic Cave Art, and the most impressive and carefully researched series by Readers Union on "Westerneivilization, the Dark Ages, Vanished Civilization, The Flowering of the Middle Ages, and the Dawn of Civilization." Martin lives on First Avenue with his Greek wife Poppy and their daughters. He is a serious sculptor and fine draughtsman, and many examples of his work are to be seen in his home. His drawings vary from finely detailed, heavily shadowed portraits to delicate impressions of female nudes. The sculpture is mainly figurative, made from eastern white cedar, pine wood, and some small semi-abstract pieces in soapstone worked to an almost transparent finish. Using the grain in the viood to follow form, the sculpture is strong and lively. Slender female torsos and handsome male heads have a timeless quality that reflect the knowledge and research behind them. He has also worked on a number of objects fotuid on his journeys, embellishing and smoothing tree roots, antler's horns, swamp wood and stones, setting them on solid bases. Nineteen seventy nine will bring more changes for Martin Weaver. He has recently been appointed Director of Education for Heritage Canada.
