Open Letter to the Council Some time ago you decided that the time had arrived when bxtension of the present bus bervice to the northerly points of the municipality was impera- tive. First--I should imagine owing to the increasing popula- tion on the higher levels. Sec- ond--Because it will also be the means of bringing in more sei- tlers to these parts. Now, as sponsor to the peti- tion, which contained some fifty signatures. You decided in open council that you would try out two routes: first, along Esqui- malt up Eleventh to Inglewood and then west; second, up Four- teenth Street, along Gordon, up Thirteenth Street, east to Elev- enth and turn west. On the advice of the ferry manager, you had decided to go west from Thirteenth Street, but after dis- cussing the point at some length, you gave me to umlerstand that, whichever route'ou decided, you woul&l certainly give the people east of Thirteenth Street 8 fair deal. I do not think it wouM create any hardship to the western passengers to continue the two blocks along Inglewoo&l to Eleventh Street-. Imagine my surprise on res&ling,thu local paper to find. that you hnPI bbso't lutely gone against the wist)es of thd'aid proper'ty'wners an&i residents east of Thirteenth Street, aml this by the will of the chairman of transportation, whose word seems to be "nil highest." Do you think that this is the community spirit an&I that you are giving fair consideration to the taxpayers east oi'hir- teenth Street, who have for years shared in the upkeep of thc Marine Drive transporta- tion?

NOTARY PUBI.IC By Dr. Frank 'Crane Arthur S. Bent, upon assuming the duties of president of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, made an address which in some respects was remarkable. He did not talk about city plans for people to make more money, about fac- tories, water power, electricity, an&I so on. He said the city had already paid enough attention to such things and now it ought to give thought to the higher life. It should have more municipal parks, more music, sculpture and educational institutions. In short, it,gh&)ukl turn its attention away from crass materialism and give some,it attention to the higher and more spiritual values. This is rather a rare note in municipal history. As a rule, such talk is considered thoroughly impractical and academic. It is assumed that a city owes its growth nml development entirely to people's desire to succeed in business. It is doubtful whether this is the case. Perhaps in the long run it would pay a city quite as much to devote its attention to higher things as it does to think nil'hetime about waterfronts, railroads nnd warehouses.'t cannot be denied that life in most of the cities of North America is somewhat sordid. The cities are ugly. Those situated upon lakes or rivers give over their waterfronts to' commercial purposes and they remain unl&eautiful. If a city were to have definite plans for beautifying itseli and for cultivating the arts, doubtless it would attract as many as are attracted now by hope of gain. For a city to be known as an srt centre nnd 8 place of beauty will appeal to thousands of people. Many would like to raise their children in such surroundings. Many more would like to live out their own days in such an environment. On the whole, if any city can be induced to devote itself more to the spiritual values it will be found that the other values will follow. It is true of cities as of an individual that if they first seek "the kingdom of God all these other things shall be n&l&lml to them." That is, if we understand by the kingdom of God the kingdom of the invisible values. West Van.
