001B6C13 December 3rd, 1926 THE WEST VAN. NEWS St. Andrew's Day 1926Auto Licenses To Miss Davis Entertains Be Displayed in 1927 at Blue Dragon Inn One of the most delightful evenings of the early season was spent at the Blue Dragon Inn, Whytecliit', on Saturday, the 27th of November, when Mrs. Dalgleish and Miss Gladys Davis entertained about thirty of their West Vancouver friends. The ballroom, with its perfect floor, was decorated with burnt orange and yellow 'mums, as also were the charming sitting- out rooms with comfy chairs and log fires. A feature of the evening before the dancing com- menced was an artistic compe- tition at which Mrs. Wm. Small won the ladies'rize and Mr. F. X. Hodgson the gentlemen'. A sumptuous supper was served at midnight. Among those present were Mr. and Mrs. Robson, Mr. and Mrs. P. C. Chapman, Mr. and Mrs. Sheriff, Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Leyland, Mr. and Mrs. F. X. Hodgson, Mr. and Mrs. F. C. Harris, Mr. and Mrs. Crawford, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Small, Mr. and Mrs. Reginald Haworth and Mr. and Mrs. T. Dauphinee. Attorney-General A. M. Man- son states that the provincial government will supply the con- tainers to hold the copies of the motor licenses, which it will be necessary for every motorist to display somewhere on his car after the first of January, 1927, an act having been passed by the Legislature making this dis- play of licenses necessary. It is hoped that by this method motorists will be pro- ted from theft and that it will be made easier to locate missing cars. The covers will be given out to each license holder when he re- ceives his 1927 plates. The Sleeping Beauty While poets sing the Lions'raise- The guardians of the Gate-- Neglected by their Sapphic lays Must Sleeping Beauty wait? In tranquil, everlasting sleep Reclines that queenly form, Her couch athwart the canyons deep, kIer bosom braves the storm. Life Saver Rewarded Her canopy the fiery cloud When lightnings hiss and spring, She sleeps amid the thunders loud That make the welkin ring. What might very well have been a fatal drowning accident in West Vancouver waters is recalled by the recent issuance of a parchment certificate to Mr. Thomas Johnston, 535 Broadway East, Vancouver, by the board of investigating governors of the Royal Human Society. Mr. Johnston last summer plunged into the bay here fully clad and rescued Miss Phyllis Grey from drowning. It was necessary to apply artificial re- spiration to bring her back to consciousness. When rides the moon, and silv'ry light 0'erspreads the mountains high, How lovely in the silent night Her form against the sky. In winter snows and summer beams Majestic through the years-- 0 may she sleep to pleasant dreams, And never wake to tears. : L. 0. B. A North Vancouver. W.

SCOTTISH CONCERT The Hollyburn Theatre was filled to capacity on Tuesday last to greet the artists who took part in the third annual St. Andrevevs concert. The entire programme was &le- lightful and each item wee well worthy the enthusiasm that the audience accorded them. Little Ann Lamont once again captured the hearts of her audience with her with her Highland dancing. "Harry Mc- Kelvie," as usual, was "a scream." Madame Este Arete and Miss Ritchie were in splen- did voice. Particularly pleasing was their rendition of "0 Wert Thou in the Cauld Blast" (in duet). Mr. George McInnes sang three numbers with splendid depth of tone and wonderful in- terpretation. Mr. Kidsoii's solos were well taken care of by this promising artist, as also were the numbers rendered by the quartette. Mr. Jack Allan with his cornet was a surprise and a joy to the entire audience, as was evidenced by the repeated encores. We hope to hear more of this worthy resident. Miss Robertson's rendition of J. M. Barrie's story was a master- piece. Harry Lauder's under- study in the person of Mr. Wm. Thompson was thoroughly en- joyed. It seemed natural for West Vancouver residents to have Mrs. F. X. Hodgson take care of some of the accompani- ments of the evening, as also did Miss M. Frame, and once again the programme would have been incomplete lacking the brilliant piping of Messrs. Niven and Walls. The curtain was rung down on what was a splendid evening's entertainment. The accommodation of the splendid Hollyburn. Theatre was much appreciated by all, com- fortable and cosy, with the stage and the lighting throughout just as it ought to be for concerts. This is a great help to the pro- motion of any concert. The pro- prietor, Mr. H. Fletcher, is anxi- ous to make the theatre accom- modating in every way for the entire community I. 0. D. E. The Duncan Lawson Chapter, I. O. D. E., will hold a tea at the home of Mrs. W. L. Vaughan, Eighteenth Street, on 1Vednes- day afternoon, December 15th, and look forward to this event to assist them in their Christ- mas charity work. The soldiers'lot and the Shaughnessy Military Hospital receive considerable attention from the chapter. Educational work along many lines and much good work has been accomplish- ed during the year. Mrs. Peter Wait and Mrs. Wells Crawford have charge of the home-cooking and short- bread; Mrs. C. Donohoe, candy, and Mrs. Robert McVean and Mrs. Prentice the afternoon tea. All are cordially invited.
