News: New Ferry Schedule In noting the new Schedule shown in your issue of date. The morning senrice is all that could be desired but why cannot the management get out of the rut of 5.15 and 5.30 p.m., back from the city in the evenings? Those closing at 5.30 p. m. are no better cared for than in the past. They have got to wait till 6.15 p. m., therefore the service is certainly misnamed a "half- hourly one." Why not make the evening service 5.00, 5.30, 6.00 and 6.30 or if the 5.15 is a suitable hour, why not make the next 5.45 and thus help out those leaving off at 5.30. A 6.00 p. m. on Sundays and holidays is a farce. Yours truly, "A 16-Year Resident and Daily Traveller." A by-law for $60,000 to pro- vide water for Eagle Harbor, Horseshoe Bay and adjacent are- as will probably be voted on by ratepayers of the municipality late this month, it has been de- cided by the council. Sources of supply will be Eag- le Lake an(l Nelson Creek. The water will be carried to the Horseshoe area by an eight-inch main on 13Iarine Drive. The ex- act date for the vote has not yet been announced, but it is expect- ed that it will be about April 23. Stratton's Bakery new deliv- ery truck is now finished and is in service for the delivery of the Stratton bakeshop products to the homes of IVest Vancouver. The body of the car was made in West Vancouver by Mr. J. Davidson of the Marine Motors, Mr. J. Carley being responsible for the painting and sign work. That a truck such as this should be turned out by local workmen for a local firm and for local use is a matter of great satisfaction. We congratulate Mr. Stratton upon his enterprise and commun- ity spirit, and feel sure his new and up-to-date delivery will still further increase the number of those who enjoy Stratton's bread and cakes. Baked in one of the most modern shops to be found anywhere in B. C. and under the most sanitary conditions the Stratton products meet with gen- eral favor. This combined with the geniality of both proprietors has made the name "Stratton" a household word in West Van- couver. Marine Drive, Ambleside Phone West 23 MRS. RUTLEDGE IN AUTO ACCIDENT Mrs. W. A. Rutledge of 22nd and Bellevue, was the victim of a serious auto accident on Thurs- day evening, 7th April, when the sedan she was driving skid- ded and went through the rail- ing of the Marine Drive bridge at the corner of Bewicke Ave- nue, North Vancouver and into the stream below. The heavy auto turned completely over and landed with a crash up- side down, smashing the glass and crumpling up the back of the body. Miraculous- ly Mrs. Rutledge was not hurt in any way, and was able to crawl out of the car and summon assistance from the North Shore garage. Phone Seymour 5713. CORBIN'S JANITOR SERVICE ELECTRIC FLOOR SANDING Shellacing, Waxing and Polishing Old Floors made New. New Floors made Perfect WEST VANCOUVER BOARD OF TRADE The Editor IVest Van News 422 Richards Street, Vancouver, B. C. I am directed to ask you to correct a false impression con- veyed by the heading of the re- port, in the Morning Star, nf the meeting of the West Van- couver Ratepayers'ssociation. The heading suggests that the Board of Trade has advanced a proposal for the amalgamation of the two bodies. This is not correct. The Board has offered'o co-operate with the Ratepay- ers'ssociation and other organ- izations on certain matters per- taining to the welfare of the Municipality, and stands ready so to co-operate at all times; but amalgamation with any other body has not been suggested nor could it be legally accomplished.
