Dry Cleaning and Pressing There was a large attendance at the illustrated lecture on Hol- lyburn Ridge given by the B. C. Mountaineering Club on Monday night in Ambleside Hall under the auspices of the Board of Trade. sir. Johnson, chairman of the B. C. Mountaineering Club, made a brief address, in which he urg- ed the necessity of preserving Hollyburn Ridge as a park for the present and future genera- tions of residents of Vancouver and Greater Vancouver, it being peculiar]y adapted for such a pui~ose by nature and its prox- imity to the city. A Taylor of West Vancouver, a member of the mountaineering club, then gave a most interest- ing address on the ridge illus- trated by a series of beautiful slides, which had been prepared by J. Porter, who was present with his lantern. Dlr. Taylor by means of the views, took his audience up the 25th Street trail and across the ridge, passing a number of the lakes, and on up to Hollyburn Peak and Black mountain. The views showed the ridge to be ono long vista of park scen- ery with trees scattered in clumps all over its surface and little lakes dotted here and there to give variety to the landscape, an ideal playground for city workers and their families. The ridge and especially the lakes were shown under both summer and winter conditions, with hik- ers enjoying themselves in var- ious sports. The magnificent scenery of the adjoining moun- tains and over the gulf to be obtained there were also thrown on the screen. The tivo most noticeable feat- ures as shown were the open nature of the plateau and the gem-like beauty of the lakes in the summer months. The lectur- er showed himself to be entirely au fait with his subject, point- ing out from time to time the various objects of interest from the standpoint both of the lover of outdoor sports and the nature student. L. C. Ford, vice president of the Mountaineering Club, who followed, stressed the necessity of the people of TVest Vancouver through their council taking immediately the necessary steps to have the Provincial Govern- ment reserve the ridge for park purposes, before it had been ac- quired by private interests. Colonel Savory, president of the Board of Trade, remimled those present that already 640 acres ha&i been purchased by a syndicate and Mr. Taylor kindly gave his lecture a second time for the benefit of those who ha&1 come in late. IV. McQuaker, vice-president of the Board of Trade, moved a vote of thanks to Messrs. Taylor aml Porter aml the officials of the mountaineering club. Especial mention should also be made of a scale model of the ridge in plaster of paris, the work of Mr. Sehvood, which was on exhibition during the evening, and from which an accurate iclea could be obtained of its general topography.
