THE WEST VAN NEWS PROFESSOR BUCK GIVES TALK ON GARDENS AND GARDENING The lecture given last Tues- day, under the auspices of the West Vancouver Agricultural and Horticultural Association by Professor Buck was very well attended and showed unmistak- ably how great an interest is be- ing taken by West Vancouver citizens in "Gardens and Gard- ening." The good work being done by this association was rec- ognized by those present and the interest with which Professor Buck's remarks were listened to. It was a very able address and much useful information was ob- tained by those present. Profes- sor Buck has the happy knack of presenting his subject and his fund of knowledge in an int- eresting manner. Sincerity Is the keynote of advertising. Misleading ads. ara wovsa than useless.

COUNCIL PASSES RESOLUTION REGARD- ING ROAD BY-LAW In connection with the much discussed proposal to place be- fore the public a by-law for wid- ening Marine Drive and building a new bridge over the Capilano, the following resolution has been passed by the council: "That, provided the Provinci--'~ al Government authorities can~e satisfied as to estimates, eng- ineering supervision, quantities and price generally, this council stands in favor of submitting by- law to people for a sum equal to one-half the amount it will cost (including a new bridge over Capilano River according to plans already submitted) to wid- en and hard surface Marine Drive from Mile 1 to Mile 12 in- clusive. A motion was also passed that the Reeve and Chairman of the Board of Works be authorised to interview George S. Hanes and obtain from him his views on widening and surfacing Marine Drive from Mile 1 to Mile 12. Before a large gathering of the North Shore Canadian Club, E. J. Pratt of the University of. Toronto, delivered a stirring ad- dress on Wednesday evening at the If. P. Hall, North Vancouver. It is not too much to say that hisaudience was not only intense- ly appreciative, but at times was thrilled. Mr. Pratt gave several recitations from his own pen, and his interpretations were exquisite in their rendering. Himself a son of Newfound- land and possessing a magnetic personality, he showed complete mastery of the romance and his- tory of that sea-girt island. Every human emotion, pathos, tragedy and humor, finds a place in Mr. Pratt's works, and every verse not only rings with the song of the sea, but breathes the spirit of those whose business is found among the fog banks and ice floes of Newfoundland waters. It is certain that Mr. Pratt's verse is a valuable contribution in the field of New World poetry and literature has been much en- riched thereby. The speaker, who is the first man of prominence touring under the auspices of the Can- adian Clubs to address the North Shore branch, was introduced by the president, J. B. Leyland.
