NEW CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CORNER STONE LAID On Monday last the corner s tone of the new Chr istian Sci- ence Church was laid. This church is being buil t at 20th and Esquimalt . The ceremony was held at an early hour in the morning and in accordance with the usual practice only a few of t he officers of the Christian Science Society, t he architect and builder were present. The ser- vice was of a simple character. P. T. A. ACTIVITIES There was a large attendance at t he regular · monthly meeting of the Parent Teachers' Asso- ciation, which took place a t the Pauli ne J ohnson School last Tuesday. F rench Canada was the sub- ject of the lecture given by Mr. F . J. Patterson, Principa l of the High School, who has fi rst hand knowledge of t he places and people he so well desc1·ibed. The lecture was illustrated by a very interesting series of pictures shown by Mr. Porter, a former school t rustee, depict ing F rench life in Eastern Canada. Repor ts presented by different convenors showed satisfactory progress for the beginning of the year. I t was decided that no more lunches be provided at the schools, as this branch of the work was not sufficient ly pat- ronised by t he scholars. A programme of musical num- of solos by Mrs. J . T. Watt, and bers was contributed, made up Mrs. G. Herr in, saxaphone solo by Mr. Waddingham and piano duet by the Misses Freda and Joyce Herrin. The soloists were accompanied by the president, Mrs. Waddingham. At the conclusion of t he ad- dress, a vote of thanks to Mr. Patterson and those who had en- tertained with musical numbers was moved in a brief speech by Mr. Leyland, seconded by Mr. Hamilton. " What's the matter, J ohn? " 11Why, ma'am, here's a note from the master in which he tells me that he's off on a little holiday, and he wants me to send his drawing mater- ials along." "Well, and isn't that plain enough ?" 11 Hardly, ma'am. I don't know whether to send his pa int br ushes or a cork-screw." 3 P E R S O NALS The West Vancouver Pharm- acy has now received a license for the sale of postage stamps.
