MEETING +Q~gl/ ~$There was u good attendanceon Monday evening at the ad- journed monthly meeting of the Board of trade in Amblesido Hall. IV. R. Hamilton gave a most interesting address on the pro- posed new park at Amblebide. Mr. Hamilton and the Ratepay- ers'ssociation are the origina- tors of the scheme, and the scale map of the park with which he illustrated his address enab)ed his hearers to obtain a clear in- sight into the nature of the pro- ject. Generally speaking the area which it is proposed to acquire stretches from 14th Street to the Indian Reseiwe and is bounded on the north by thc Marine Drive, from which it ex- tends to the beach. That por- tion north of the P.G.E. track between 18th Street and the In- dian Reserve is set aside for an athletic park, and a stadium may possibly be built at the easterly encl. Using the slough as a starter it is proposed to dredge a yacht harbor in a westerly direction for some distance, west again of which swimming pools would be dredged for children, while a pic- nic ground would be situated be- tween the P. G. E. tract and the yacht harbor. The children' playground would extend west- ward from the swimming pool to the junction of Argyle and 13th Streets. Mr. Hamilton figured that the dredging would cost 10 cents a yard, his figures for acquiring the property and putting it in shape being as follows; allow- ing for the fact that the muni- cipality already own 31 acres of the property: 1'utting athletic park in shape and erecting a stadium .....................$ 5,000 Dredging .......................... 25,000 Putting ground in shape 5,000 Purchase price of Water- front property owned by Gintzburger estate as per option given by them ............................ 30,000 Purchase price of other waterfront property.... 12,000 The housewife who does her marketing with us knows that our goods are of "best quality," that our service is prompt and reliable.

Following a hearty vote of thanks accorded to Mr. Hamil- ton for his address the meeting went on record as approving of the scheme. The secretary was instructed to write to the Council and the Ratepayers'ssociation stating that they would give every assistance in furtherance of the project. Mr. Clark of the Westinghouse Co. addressed the meeting on the installation of ornamental street lights on Marine Drive between 14th and 18th Streets and be- tween 24th and 25th Streets. His plans called for 22 lights in the Ambleside area allowing for those on 14th Street between the ferry landing and Marine Drive. the Dundaruve section having 6 lights. A space of 110 feet is allowed between each standard, each of which would cost $208 to install. If 15 year bonds were issued to meet this cost, it would figure out at about $9 per year for every 50 feet to the frontage owner, it being his op- inion that the work should be undertaken as a local improve- ment. The matter was referred to the Public Improvements com- mittee t'or examination and re- port. During the evening a resolu- tion was passecl asking the Dom- inion Government to build fire of their proposed new ships in Canadian yards on the Atlcnitic and Pacific coasts. A resolution was also passed congratulating Mute George hiacdonald on his bravery in recently rescuing u ferry passenger from droivning. We close ou Sundays; but open ail day Thursdays.
