CONTINUED FROM PAGE B:1 "You could live in the village of Mar- stons Mills but actually vote in Oster- ville," Schlegel says. It is also fallacy that individual town councilors represent a village, albeit most are associated with one village though they might have parts of two or three villages in their precinct. Even the U.S. Postal Service ignores not only village but sometimes town markers, so postal routes could not be used for 911 either. For example, Bob Coleman lives on Railway Point, Hyannis, but is serviced by the Yar- mouth Post Office. If higher authorities had not ac- cepted the fire district boundaries , the town would have had to change many a street name to conform to 911 requirements - and that would have presented many a problem to many a household , postal carrier and business at large. The only difficulty encountered with the fire district lines was in the COMM district, trying to separate the three villages within the district to define them. "So we used precinct lines inside that one district," Schlegel said. Should Osterville, and other villages, have accurate boundaries? Finding a well-defined Osterville, say the bureau- crats, appears not nearly as important as Shakespeare 's observation in King Lear: "Striving to better, oft we mar what's well." Schlegel reminds of attempts to abolish fire districts in favor of one department. The idea has always failed to gain much public support and perhaps wisely so in view of the 911 processes , he infers. Trying to create precise village boundaries could pro- duce more problems than it's worth. For all its seaside charm and quiet wealth then, Osterville, as the less af- fluent villages, knows no bounds.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE B:1 out of their houses, and people whojust love chocolate. "It works well for all," he said. Along with the activities happening during the day, the OBPA hopes that people will sweeten up their evenings with Chocolate Fest activities as well. From 5 p.m. to 7:30 pm, the East Bay Gallery willbe holding an exhibit featur- ing original sculptures - made entirely of chocolate. The exhibit,"The Art of Chocolate,"will display original chocolate sculptures by Osterville artist Susan Marshall. Power believes the exhibit meshes wonderfully with the "chocolate, candy, sweetheart theme" of the festival. With music, refreshments , and most importantly, chocolate , the OBPA is hoping for alarge turnout "if the weather cooperates," said Power. If the number ofrevelers isindeed what is expected , Merriman and Power plan to have a similar celebration next year, along with others throughout the winter. Merriman isn't worried about the crowds; she believes the subject of the festival will draw people out of their homes quite easily on its own. "AsSusan Boynton said,"she noted. '14 out of 10 people love chocolate. '" For more information on the Osterville Chocolate Festival, call Nicole Merriman at 508-428-3647.
