Born.in Medicine Hat, Alberta, as Phyllis Klinck, Margolin moved to the Toronto area as a child. She won scholarships to classes at the Ontario College of Art, and studied commer- cial art as well, at the Art School of the Central Technical School. After her marriage she was. in volved in musical performances of folk music with her husband, Lewis Bockner, who died prematurely, leaving her with three young chil- dren. Moving to Argenta, at the north end of Kootenay Lake, Mar- golin continued painting. She has become well-known for her portrayal of our Kootenay landscape; her skies have especially received critical acclaim. She divides her time between her Argenta home and her extensive travels to many places in the world, including Micronesia, Hawaii, the British Isles, France and Mexico. An opening reception will be held Oct. 7 from 7:30 - 9:30 p.m. to meet the artist.

The film, to be released Oct. 7, grew out of Yoko Ono's offer to produeer David Wolper of what he describes as “two boxears” of material from Lennon's many archives: writings, film and photographs, never released, many taken by John or Yoko. Lennon, our time.” Although Goldman relied on multiple sources, Wolper's choice was to let Lennon speak for himself and guide the viewer through. the film. “We're not saying Goldman was right or wrong about this or that. See the movie and tell me you believe he was a liar and a junkie,” said Andrew Solt, director of Imagine. MAKES CLAIMS In the Lives of John Lennon, the author asserts: e Lennon and Yoko Ono were on the verge of divorce when he was killed by Mark David Chapman on Dec. 8, 1980. ¢ His public image as “househusband” son, Sean. Ono had two affairs in the final years of their marriage, a time during which she was hiding a heroin addiction from John. She has since admitted having a drug problem during this time. e@ Ono arranged Paul McCartney's marijuana bust in Japan. e And, Lennon was bisexual, and had his first homosexual experience with Beatles’ manager Brian Epstein. “John will be hurt by his book. These people in LOCAL ARTIST. . artist, will be exhibiting his new water color work of 87/88 at the Gallery of the Kootenays, Nelson John Lennon, Albert Goldman's account of an angry, drug-crazed Lennon from Liverpool to his death on a New York City street, has produced fierce rebuttals from Yokc voice — John Lennon, a feature-length film in which the subject emerges as according to the producer and to Goldman, led “one of the best-documented lives of from 1975-80 was entirely contrived; he was instead an anorexic and drug user who spurned contact with his 1980 . Ward Estes, a Slocan Valley this book are not us. It’s not John and me,” said Ono in a nationally broadcast rebuttal of the book — a program Goldman dismissed as “a predictable performance.” McCartney, who urged a boycott of the book, said on NBC's Today show: “Obviously, he's not here to defend himself. And I think that’s a big problem with a book like that. It’s too cheap a shot, I think.” The strongest rebuttal comes in the film from Lennon himself, according to those involved in Imagine. “He’s the onlyone who can say what the truth was,” said Solt. “He tells his own story. It's upthere on the screen. You can judge for yourself.” It's ironic that a life so well-documented — Lennon and Yoko recorded almost everything they did — could be the subject of such violently diverse interpretations. WRITES EXPOSE And it’s amazing Goldman could have written an expose about a man who spent his life exposing himself, literally on the cover of Two Virgins and figuratively in such songs as Jealous Guy, Cold Turkey, Mother and Help! In the film built around footage shot in 1971 when Imagine was being recorded at Lennon's estate in England, Lennon freely admits to having lived an often unhappy, debauched, biolet life. He's also candid about the Beatles. At a 1963 news conference, the Beatles are asked if they planned to adapt their act for their upcoming American tour. “We haven't really got an act,” Lennon answered..“We just do what we do.” But by the time of their 1964 Shea Stadium concert, Lennon says they were unable to hear themselves playing. Lennon, who earlier pronounced the Beatles the best rock 'n’ roll band in the world, admits: “We couldn't do it anymore.” Whatever the state of John Lennon's soul when he died, both the film and the book raise questions about the costs of pop stardom. “Unfortunately, there seems to be very little correlation between artistic talent and the ability to lead your life,” said Goldman. “Look at Beethovan. Look at so many of them. “Many artists’ private lives are a mess.” a October 1-13. A reception with the artist present will open the show Sept. Chilean art at NEC Opening at the West Kootenay National Exhibition Centre Oct. 4 is a rare display of Chilean fabric folk-art called arpilleras. These lively hang- ings created from colorful scraps of cloth appliqued to a base of burlap or flour sacking with little stuffed figures standing out in relief could be just engaging craft-works, but are much more. They are a powerful means of communication and hope. Though banned in Chile, arpilleras have been made in cooperative workshops since 1976 under the pro- tection of the Catholic Church. They are sold abroad to earn badly- needed income for the desperately poor women who make them and to depict the reality of everyday ‘life in the shantytowns of Santiago — soup kitchens, unemployment, water and power cut-offs, inadequate medical services, impoverished education, human rights violations. Arpilleras are a moving example of art political action; part of a broad cultural movement of-protest in all art forms in Chile today. Each scene is a personal story of struggle to survive and resist the oppression of Pinochet's military dictatorship. The risk for participants remains high. This highly-acclaimed exhibition is sponsored by the Saltspring Island Voice of Women who have been supporting these women for three years. Designed and mounted in co- operation with the University of British Columbia Museum of An- thropology, the ex! includes quo- tations and photographs of the ar. pilleristas.

An opening reception for the public will be held Oct. 6 at 7:30 p.m Complementing the Threads of Survival exhibition will be a photo graphic and fibre exhibit of Guat emalan weaving.

Winter Games-in February 1989. From the turn of the century to the present day, Nelson area sports par. ticipants have received, on occasion, national and international acclaim.

And championship teams in curling and lacrosse have distinguished them selves in provincial and national competitions. The museum staff seeks the assis: tance of area athletes, sports fans, photographers, history buffs, or any one else having knowledge of the areas sporting history in putting to- gether a complete research file and a comprehensive exhibit. The loan of artifacts, such as photographs, equipment and team uniforms is also sought. Pulpit & Pew By Pastor IRA JOHNSON Kinnaird Church of God EXAMPLES FOR CHILDREN! Apparently Jesus observed how keenly children were affected by the example of adults, and so in St. Luke 17:1-he said to his disciples: “Things that cause people to sin are bound to come, but woe to that person through whom they come. It would be better for him to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around his neck than for him to cause one of these little ones to sin! So watch yourselves . ” (V1-8a) That sounds like very harsh judgment, but Christ our Lord was well aware that the example set by parents and adults in general, has a very great influence on the lives of children as they grow up! So He is saying. “Make sure your example does not lead children in the wrong direction.” Should Children be Sent to Sunday School? Obviously, it is better to send children to Sunday school than not to have them attend at all! (It is possible they will find a significant adult there set’ an example of wholesome con versation.

As for religious training and church at ; not will that they will take for an ple, and so continue to live their life by the moral and spiritual values of the Christian faith.) But the chances are far more likely that when they get to be a teenager they will drop out altogether! It is only natural for them to reason that if their parents do not attend Sunday school and church; it certainly can’t be very important. Your Good Example is Vital! Parents who don’t want their children to curse and swear, should Local woman passes away Longtime area resident Irene Askew passed away recently at the age of 82. Mrs. Askew was born in 1906 in Devil's Lake, North Dakota. She came to Castlegar as a young woman in 1929. She and her husband were all known in the area.

Otherwise your actions will say to the child that religious faith and values are not important. So, why not decide to give your children the best possible opportunity to build a strong spiritual foundation for their lives? HOLIDAYS FOR 1988 COMPLETED! OPEN AGAIN AS USUAL!
