001B6C98 THE WEST VAN NEWS April I, 1927. Better Quality Isf Less Nouey CORRESPONDENCE Instrumental Hiluslc in West Van. cou'i er. We are Particular Dear Sir:-- Public School bands and or- ehesiras are no novelty in the U.S.A. or the Old Lan&i alii the days are not far off when these organisations irill be found in our oivn public schools. The importance of instrument- al music for children cannot be overlooked. 'I'here is nothing that so develops the mind as this study of music. The mind. eyes, ears, hamls. lips. tongue aml lungs all operate together when pressed in the service of a wiml instrument. A womlerful bene- fit. Another thing to be noted is thnt the boy so engaged has not the time nor inclination to in- &lulge in street loafing, smoking cigarettes round corners or shooting craps. IVhen Bill buys his horn and goes olf to the weekly band practico his parents know where he is ami also know ivhat he is doing. In the band room he will fin&1 lots of other fellows like himself engaged in the same fascinating pursuit. It is a great sight to see this boy with twenty or thirty others marching down the street behind gleaming comets, trombones, saxophones and other instru- ments. The Edmonton (Alberta) Newsboys'and a couple of years ago made a trip to the great Wembley Exhibition, played be- fore the king, and on retuni to Canada filled a week's engage- ment at the Toronto Exhibition. Now that we have several parks about to be open to the public we feel that they will not be complete without a hami. tVest Vancouver's lack of a band is its opportunity of neat- ing one right now for service next year. I shall be glad to answer any questions regarding this matter. CHAS. tVADDINGHAM West Vancouver, 28-3-27. 511lldl .I G10CC'1 ]1 (A. HARVEY ShiiTB, Psop.) GROCERIES.

HALF HOLIDAY TO BE ENFORCED An official notice appears in this issue from the Chief of Police notifying all storekeepers that they are liable to a fine for keeping their places of business open after 1 p. m. on Thursday. This being a statutory half holi- day, it is evidently the intention of the authorities to enforce the law. 10 12 "isIy dear, what makes you al- ivays yaivsl . The wife exclaimed, her temper gone, Is home so dull aml dreary?" "Not so, my love," he said, "not so, But man and wife are one, you know, And when alone I'm always 'iv cary. Professor Low: The only thing that really interests the public is the question of to-mor- i'ow. My rate-collector will never take this view. 13 14 15 The Corporation of the District of tVest Vancouver Notice to Storekeepers The famous criminal lawyer had won a shockingly bad case by eloquence and trickery, and a rival lawyer said to him, b:t- terly: "Is there any case so low, so foul,so vilely crooked and shame. ful that you'd refuse it?" '%'ell, I don't know," the other answered with a smile. "What have you been doing now?" NOTICE is hereby given that the Statutory Half Holiday commences at I p. m. each Thursday. All Stores doing business after that time, unless ex- empted by the Act, are liable to prosecution. Signed CHIEF OF I'OLICE This is what we aim so sire you.
