In the memoir class, I'd like to change the fontsize used by \marginpar{}
to something smaller. I've tried:

\newcommand{\gloss}[1]{%
\marginpar[#1]{\tiny{#1}}}

but oddly this only works on every second page (when the margin notes go
in the right margin). On the remaining pages the margin notes continue to
appear in a large font size. How can I remedy his?

Get rid of that "[#1]". And read the section in the Latex Companion
on "Marginal Notes". (P74 in my copy). T.

That did it. Stupid mistake on my part, sorry.

I wish I had that kind of money, and currently lived in a country where I
could buy that book in English (or any other language for that matter).

better start saving because LaTeX Companion 2. edition should be out within a
month (or two)
