MUCH SNOW ON NORTH SHORE -- NO LIKELIHOOD OF FLOOD Officials of the Greater Van- couver Water District are not greatly disturbed over the pos- sibilities of floods in the creeks of the North Shore. While snow- fall during the winter has been unusually heavy, it has packed hard and there is not much dang- er from sudden thews, it is said. At Loch Lomond the snowfall during the winter reached the 18-foot mark. This has packed down to 14 feet and in some places is almost like ice. Average run-off on Seymour and Capilano creeks is about 450 second feet. With an abnormal spell of hot weather or heavy precipitation of warm rain, this may rise to about 3000 second feet, but that would not create a dangerous flood condition, it is said. I.ove is what makes a young'an forget how many times two will go into twenty-two dollars a week. SCOTTISH SOCIETY Over srxty members and friends attended the lecture giv- en by Coh Foster in the 'Clach- an" last Friday evening on "Na- tional Parks in Canada." This was indeed a treat for those who were privileged to at- tend. The views thrown on the screen were wonderful and once again brought home to us the great truth that here in Canada we have indeed a "priceless treas- ure" and a magnificence that is unsurpassed in our national play- grounds. The society is indebted to Col. Foster for his splendid evening' entertainment. The next regular meeting will be held on Friday, iafay 20th in the "Clachan." This will be the last Meeting of the season and will take the form of an "at home" by the members. Members of the socrety are invited to attend the dance in North Vancouver Friday night, April 29th in the K. P. hall und- er the auspices of the North Vancouver St. Andrews and Cal- edonian Society.
