The rugs to be displayed will be representative of the different types used by Doukhobor households from the days of immigration to the present, when family heirloom rugs \are displayed as valued antiques. Sherstobitoff began his collection among the treasures of his own family, and has gone on from there to collect examples of the different styles and types from the Doukhobor tradition. The first use of rug was. the equivalent of a couch throw today, and served the same purpose. Because the beding was folded up during the day to allow seating on the beds, these covers were made to make a tidy and decorative cover for the shelf. This was a twill weave rug woven in two pieces from a variety of materials, usually in a number of colors. The most beautiful rugs were the tapestry rugs which show the influence of the neighbors of the Doukhobors in the Crimea, during the 40 years before their emigration to Canada. There are many oriental elements in the designs of these rugs, which seem to have been made for a young married couple, or for a family to treasure. Some were made in two pieces on a standard loom; some on a large rug loom. Many were fringed. A variation on the tapestry rug was the pile rug, with the wool pieces knotted individually onto the carpet. ‘These were often made as a group project, a young engaged couple were known to have courted sitting side by side working on the pile rug which became the undercovering of their marriage bed. The exhibit will feature examples of each type of rug, and some variations as well as some examples of clothing from Sherstobitoff's coll- Balancing The Body's Energy: (Shiatsu) A contemporary interpretation of traditional Japanese finger pressure massage.

The monks will perform at the Capitol Theatre in Nelson on Oct. 27 and at the Brilliant Cultural Centre on Oct. 29. Both shows begin at 8 p.m. Love letters pose threat NEW YORK (AP) — People who express undue love when writing to celebrities are just as likely to try approaching them as those who make threats, a new study suggests. “Some of the worst incidents that have been preceded by a letter were preceded not by a threat letter, but by a love letter or some other peculiar or inappropriate communi cation,” said researcher Park Dietz. Results suggest laws in many states that cover harassment should be broadened to cover such circum stances as being bothered by would. be lovers and others, he said. In one example of harassment, a Saskatchewan farmer has been con.

Under court order not to contact her or her family, Kieling was convicted June 29 of violating the order by calling her office 263 times in the first six months of this year. He was sentenced to six months in jail. PRESENTS STUDY Dietz, a professor of law and psychiatry at the University of Virginia, spoke in a telephone inter. view before presenting the study in San Francisco at the annual meeting of the American Academy of Psy chiatry and the Law. The study involved more than 1,000 “inappropriate” letters written to performers by 214 people. It also focused on attempted approaches because they raise a risk of violence, although most are benign, Dietz said. The study was aimed at looking for clues that could help protect both ordinary people and celebrities from violence, he said. Analysis of letters in the study ECONO SPOTS You can save up to 80% on the cost of this ad! 365-5210 found that 17 per cent of the writers considered themselves suitors of the celebrity, while an equal percentage cast themselves as special fans, expressing such sentiments as: “I'm your greatest fan, you owe me a lot. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be so famous.” Ten per cent of the writers acted like intimate friends, saying such things as they understand the celebrity has been too busy to send a birthday card. Another 10 per cent sought sex with the celebrity, nine per cent considered themselves a business associate or potential coll. obrator, and another nine per cent considered themselves ordinary fans but included an inappropriate mess- age like a threat. Altogether, 23 per cent of the letters contained some form of threat, ranging from promises to kill the celebrity at a specific time to statements along the line of: “Send me a credit card or I will cause Southern California to drop in the sea.” But people who wrote threatening letters were no more likely to try approaching the entertainer then other writers. That's probably be- cause most approaches are not made with the intent of doing harm, Dietz said. “Most of them are about efforts to fulfil some delusional belief and hope. Where violence occurs, it's not necessarily because the person in tended to do any violence, but rather what they expected to happen did not happen. jf FAY VWn tre.

I will lay me awhile, Then I'll rise to fight with you again.’ Dryden: Johnny Armstrong's Last Good night. There is an old story which I have been fond of repeating for my- friends. It involves a gung-ho explorer in the jungles of Africa. Day after day, from early morning to late evening, he drives his men toward his perceived goal. One morning he gets up early as usual but finds no-one astir. Furious, he calls his headman and demands why the bearers are not ready to march. The headman answers: “Sir, for many days we have been travelling hard and fast. Today the men the have decided to stop so that their souls may catch up with their bodies.” Until now I had not realized that the explorer and his team could be the same person. For some time I have been becoming increasingly uptight, unwell and bone-weary. I had hoped, however, that the semi-annual, three-week teaching session in the quiet of the monastery in Mission would enable me to recover my health. Last week Dr. John said, using a military metaphor for my better understanding: “It's time that you fell back, regrouped and reassessed the situation.” much the same thing, though in other words. He also indicated that he and Dr. John opposed the idea of going to the Abbey at this time so that I might be book. given some more tests and get put back together. Last Sunday I phoned the Abbey and with deepest regret gave the Prior the word. It was accepted with the greatest of kindness and understanding. On Thursday night at the monthly meeting of John Charters Castlegar and District executive I asked for and received permission for sick-leave for three months. It was granted and adjustments have been made to carry on. I have informed CasNews editor Ron Norman that the R and R column will be appearing sporadically for a while. My. apologies to my readers. I am in fact falling back and regrouping.

Hazel Henderson, director of alter native futures studies at the Univer sity of Florida, will speak in Nelson Nov. 1 at 7:30 p.m. at the Capitol Theatre. The author of Creating Alternative Futures: The End of Economics (1978) and The Politics of the Solar Age: Alternatives to Economics (1981), Henderson is recognized as a leading advisor in the area of global economies. Billing herself an “in- dependent futurist”, her prescription for the world’s current social, econ. omic, political and environmental woes is to scrap the conventional approach to Macroeconomics which is based on a competitive model (I win, you lose) Instead, Henderson is a proponent of what she terms “mutually assured development” — a globally co coperative approach to building a “win-win” world. “Post-economic measurements of real progress toward human devel opment, such as the Physical Quality of Life Index and Basic Human Needs indices, must be substituted for the distortions and shortsightedness of the Gross National. Product, which ignors the social and environmental costs of economically-dominated growth,” wrote Henderson in an article entitled Money vs. Wealth: The Need for New Economic Tools in the April 1988 edition of The Futurist.
