Bnldivin. ihlr. G. Baldvcin and Rev. A. hi. O'Don- nell, and "Auld Lang Syne" by the Scottish members. The meeting was the largest which the society has had for some years: and there ives a gratifying heartiness of appreci- ation. The opening address of the president, graceful and gen- ial, set the tone of the meeting, vrhich ivas maintained through- out by readers and hearers. Re- freshments were served by a committee of ladies at the close. W. B. A.

Health Centre, was a welcome idsitor, who spoke a few words to the members regarding matters of health, and fitness generally, em- phssising the fact that all mem- bers should make a point of vis- iting the Health Centre periodi- cally, where matters of weight, bodily fitness, examinations, etc. might be gone into with benefit to themselves both in the present and future. Mrs. Condon. Lieut. Com- mander, resigned her office, and was elected to be the Finance- Keeper for this year. hIrs. Sara Romans was unani- mously elected Lieut. Command- er.

Dr. Knipfel dealt with many interesting subjects; diet, teeth, uses of foods, food values, and matters of health and hygiene, generally. He displayed a num- ber of charts, giving statistics regarding health percentage in different schools and districts; bringing before his audiencevery clearly that the standard of health and fitness is not really up to the highest mark, but, by care and personal application of hygiene, proper food usages, as well as sunlight and cleanliness it is in ones power to improve, and keep their health and vigor to a prolonged stage in life. A hearty vote of thanks was accorded Dr. Knipfel for his very interesting address, and hopes expressed that he might give an- other in the near future.

Mr. Buttemvorth, civil engin- eer of Shanghai, was In West Vaiicollv&i'il Tuesdliv, vlsdtlilg his brother, hlr. G. II. Butter- worth nf 14th and Clyde, having arrived from that port on the Empress of Asin the previous evening. He reports the situa- tion in Shanghai as fsr more ser- ious than is generally believe&I. He stated thnt &chen be left there a force of 15,000 Chinese under Russian Bolshevik leaders Ives outside Shanghai, aml the number of Bolshevik Chinese in the city itself was unknnivn. A great many Chinese Ivere armed Ivith Nauser automatics, an&i those entering the foreign con- cessions were being thoroughly searched for concealed Ivcapons. The refugees from llankow had nrrived, he said, with nothing but the clothes in which they stood up, but excellent arrange- ments had been ma&le for their coinfort, all having been accom- modated in the homes of the British residents in Shanghai. He gave unstinted praise to the British Marines at Hankow, who, though pelted with mu&l an&1 stones by the infuriated Chinese mob and in many cases seriously injure&1, forbore to use their rifies and bayonets in order that the women and chiklren they were protecting might get away to the ships and safety. One act of violence on their part and nothing could have saved their charges from serious injury and probably death. Mr. Butter- worth leaves tomorrow for Eng- land.

HIGH SCHOOL WIN F I RST SOCCER G A hi E On Tuesday, of this week, the West Vancouver High School Junior Soccer team played their first game of the season against the Technical High School of Vancouver and emerged victori- ous by a score of 7-1. As the score indicates, the West Van. boys were much sup- erior and showed results of their training in the combination play. It would be difiicult to pick out an outstanding player, as all played well. Cullin at centre for- ward, however, showed clever manipulation of the ball and scor- ed 4 goals, Ferguson scoring 2 and Davie 1. The latter at cen- tre half played a very effective game, being prominent in every play. Three years ago the High School boys first entered a team in the High School League, and, as was to be expected, did not show up well, losing every game. Last year they continued to im- prove and succeeded in making an even break on their games. This year the boys have been practising faithfully and have hopes of making a good showing. It must be remembered that West Van., having only 40 boys faces a big handicap in competi- tion with larger schools having from 100 boys up. Next week the )Vest Van. team will travel te Mahon Park to en- gage the strong North Van. elev- en. West Van. Line-Up.
