I 80 Hastings Street West Public School Pupils Xmas ConcertTS l OR THE HOME& The concert being given by the pupils of the West Vancou- ver Public Schools next Wed- nesday promises to be a par- ticularly successful affair.

To clean suede gloves and shoes rub with oatmeal, when most of the dirt will disappear. Scorch marks on white silk can be removed with bicarbonate of soda mixed to a paste with cold water. Cakes will not burn at the top if covered with a piece of grease-proof paper, which should be removed about half an hour before the cake is taken from the oven. Furniture not provided with castors often scratches polished floors when it is moved about. This can be avoided if little discs of felt are glued to the bottoms of the legs of the furniture. If hot-water bottles and other articles made of Indiarubber are washed every two months with water to which a little soda or ammonia has been added, it will prevent them from perishing and getting hard. To blacken shabby brown shoes a mixture of one penny- worth of ordinary ammonia and a half pint of cold water is ef- fective. Sponge the shoes with it, then with a little shoe ink, and leave to dry thoroughly be-'ore polishing in the usual way. Don't waste sour milk. Use it'or mixing scones, cakes, pastry ( and suet puddings.'4 - Melted butter is a good sub- 'titute for olive oil in a salad dressing. Frying pans should be wiped perfectly clean with soft paper immediately after use. Always rinse woollens in water of the same temperature as the water in which they were washed. A sponge can be easily and quickly cleaned by squeezing it in a pint of water to which the juice of a lemon has been added. If milk puddings are too heavy for you, t&Y making them with half milk and half water. Made in this way, anyone can digest them.

West Vancouver Scottish Society The next regular meeting will be held on Thursday, Decem- ber 16th, instead of Friday, December 17th. The change was quite unavoidable and in view of the splendid programme that has been arranged the members are asked to keep the date in mind--Thursday, De- cember 16th, in the "Clachan"; subject, "Burns and His Songs." Members may bring a friend and all are assured of a splen- did programme. Several solo- ists and a quartette will take part, also "Readings from Burns." President, phone West 136L; Secretary, West 101. The library is now ready to be installed at the "Clachan" for the use of the members of the society. There is a fine book- case and many volumes of splen- did reading. These will prove a great pleasure to the members. Elks'ance The 'Elks'ance, which took place in Hollyburn Pavilion last Friday evening, was one of the largest and most successful af- fairs that'has ever been given in West Vancouver. Over four hundred people were present and thoroughly enjoyed dancing to the splendid music provided by the Victor Ross orchestra. In addition to a large representa- tion from West Vancouver a number from Vancouver and North Vancouver attended. It is not known yet how much has been realized, as all the reports are not in, but there is no ques- tion that the proceeds will net a large sum for the Christmas Cheer Fund. Active Demand For I Grouse Mt. Bonds Almost from the first the Grouse Mountain development enterprise has been popular with the Vancouver public. It was an undertaking that appealed to their imagination, and now when they look northward at night and see the lights of the hotel shining like great stars in the sky, there is something in it that is highly romantic. The attitude of the investing public to the venture is seen in the keen demand that is shown for the Grouse Mountain High- way and Scenic Resort 0&/~ per cent. bonds, now on the market. The motor-bus was proceeding in a rather jerky manner when a young woman passenger in- quired: "What'6 ivrong with the cai'? "The engine misses," replied the conductor. The young woman smiled. "How did you know I was mar- ried?" she asked. Bunty was told at school that Nelson "&lid not know what fear meant." "Silly man!" she sai&l; "ivhy didn't he ask someone."
