001B6B60 Ikh i June 25th, 1926 THE WEST VAN NEWS the Pacific Coast, and 8 host of, other talented entertainers. I consider a stand similar to the one at English Bay would not cost much and payment of our local talent would not cost 8 for- tune. Now a remark was heard- 1st Lady--"What is that Mem- orial for?" 2nd Lady--"Oh, that's the new Cemetery." So let us do something to beautify the park and be a pride and pleasure to our residents and visitors. Hsping to hear some more suggestions on this subject. I remain Yours truly, JOHN NYLAND West Van. Pupils Display Sewing and Woodwork Shower to Miss Effie Wenworth In honor of Miss Effie Wen- worth, whose approaching mar- riage has been the inspiration for many delightful social gather- ings recently, Mrs. O'Donnell, i&iiss Helen Ritchie and Miss Clara Wilson were joint hostess- es at a miscellaneous shower held at the home of Miss Helen Ritchie on Saturday afternoon, 19th June. Refreshments were served on the verandah, which was taste- fully decorated with blue corn- flowers and golden California poppies. The bridal gown of a large kewpie standing on a corner table concealed the many pretty and useful gifts presented to the guest of honor. The invited guests were: The hIisses Jean McLaren, Gertie Lawson, Ethel McDowel, Alice Ash, Nettie Harmon, Helen Stev- enson, Freda Herrin, Eleanor Chilton, Uilla MacLean, Ida Brealey, Lauretta Bell, Ida Port- er, Hazel Green, Vivian Jackman Ethel Nillard, hfrs. Pollard, Mrs. Edwards, Mrs. Collinson, AIrs. Clarke and Nrs. Denton. Last Friday afternoon and evening the people of West Van- couver were given an opportun- ity to see what had been done during the year by the girls and boys at sewing and woodwork. Over three hundred parents and friends visited the school dur- ing the day and all were more than sui7lrised at the splendid work being done in these depart- ments. The sewing was displayed in the lunch-room and the adjoin- ing room of the Pauline Johnson School and work showing the first simple stitches and finish- ed garments of all kinds were on view. The woodwork was dis- played in the manual training room showing everything from a plant stick to a double deck tea wagon. The time has come when these departments of practical educa- tion must be considered more and more, and it is to be hoped that West Vancouver will realize that and educate the present day boy and girl thoroughly in this work. Weddings EGGINS --RHODES On Saturday morning, June 19, at the United Church Manse, the marriage took place of Mr. Leonard Charles Eggins of Mon- treal, and Alice, daughter of Nr. and Mrs. Robert B. Rhodes, Am- bleside, West Vancouver. The bride was given away by her father and the witnesses were Mrs. Clara Calflwell, and Mr. Charles Low. After a brief honeymoon to the Coast cities, Mr. Bnd Mrs. Eggins will make their home at Montreal, where Mr. Eggins holds an important position. Roger Bridge Closed to Traffic Major A. L. W. Saunders and Mrs. Saunders are shortly leav- ing West Vancouver to take up residence in Kerrisdale. They have been connected with a num- ber of organisations here and will be much missed. PARISH--BRADLEY A quiet wedding took place at the United Church, West Van- couver, on Saturday afternoon, when Mr. Ralph Edwin Parish was united in marriage to Miss Constance Louise Bradley, Mar- ine Drive, Ambleside. The bride was given away by her father, Mr. Joseph Arthur Bradley. Mr. and Mrs. George Vertigan of, Portland acted as witnesses. After the ceremony at the Church, a reception was held at the home of the bride's parents, and later Mr. and Mrs. Parish left for a motor tour in Wash- ington and Oregon. On their re- urn they will take up their resi- dence at Larson Road, North 'ancouver. The Council have ordered the Roger bridge closed to traffic on account of its being unsafe. Re- pairs will be made immediately so that it may be available a- gain to the travelling public as soon as possible. This brings to our mind the fact that the condition of the Marine Drive bridge leaves much to be desired. It cannot be ex- actly called unsafe, but it is our main road to town and every time there is a freshet specula- tion is rife among West Vancou- ver residents as to whether the bridge will be washed away or & not. With that gone all over- land traffic must go by Keith Road, and Keith Road is hard- ly suitable at present for heavy traffic such as it would have to carry if anything happened to the present main highway. A little money spent on Keith Road now might prove a sound invest- ment for the future. Dentist Phone Sep. 2384 for Appointment Dr. W. J.

Ferguson's Motor Transfer Editor of THE WEST VAN NEWS: Dear Sir: I hope you will allow me to make 8 suggestion or two, and publish the same in your newsy paper. I wish to criticise our Park Board of the Council. I am not finding fault in anyway, but, I would like to ask why something has not been done to put the Memorial Park in a condition to hold concerts during the sum- mer? I understand the Parks Board are expending quite a sum of money on the dump heap at Ambleside, to make a ball park for a few enthusiasts. Which is going to be more beneficial for this Municipality, a ball park or a recreation park, where we, the residents and visitors can come «nd enjoy a concert during Sun- day afternoon? Consider the talented musici- ans we have in our Municipality. Not fanother in IVestern Canada to compare with it- McIntyre (}uartette, Mrs. Knight-Hodges Trio, Nrs.
