The First Limerick Limericks have been very popular for years. The making of them has provided many with a pleasant mental exercise as well as creating considerable a- musement. Like wine they have apparently improved with the years, for the following, sai&1 to be the first Limerick ever invent- ed, is good, but not so goo&i as many later ones: I n&.'vel'alv a pul'pic cow, I never hope to see one; But this I know and tell you now, I'd rather see than be one."

JAIIIES 51ORGAN NOIV LEADS UNITED CHURCH CHOIR Mr. James M. Morgan, direct- or of the West Vancouver Music- al Society, has been appointed choir master of the United Church and formally took charge of the choir work at the prac- tice held last night. Mr. Hadyn Young who resigned the position owing to ill-health will remain as a member of the choir and says he will assist Mr. Morgan in any way he can in making the United Church choir an out- standing musical organization. Mr. Morgan is too well knoivn in West Vancouver to need any of his history being given here, suffice it is to say, that he is one of the most successful choir dir- ectors in British Columbia and the United Church is to be con- gratulate&l upon receiving his services. IVe will watch the de- velopment of this choir with much interest. Miss Durbin will remain as organist for the church. Your Druggist Is more than a merchant.

This store conforms to the spirit of this intention by having two registered druggists to serve you. "The Store of Service" &O & ~ .;,, / NORTHERN LIGHY .0!.

Thos. Killin will again be master of ceremonies assisted by sev- eral others. There will be "a "spot prize" during the dances and also a special "Cinderella" prize for ladies. This is novel and entertaining.

McGowan, or James Fiddes. SHOOTING SEASON OPENS --LOCAL SPORTSIIIEN ON THE TREK Quite a number of West Van- couver sportsmen are leaving the district tonight in preparation for the hunting season which opens at daybreak tomorrow. A- mong these are Charlie Roberts, the Ambleside butcher and his son Dudley, who with W. Mc- Quaker and Ed. Black make up a party going to the Ladner dis- trict. Dudley will return on Monday, but the others will be away for the whole of next &reek. A. A. Rerrie of the Capilano Timber Co. is another who will be making his annual pilgrimage to the sports ground or should we say water. The reputation of these resi- dents is at stake an&i lve expect to hear of "big bags." Just the same &ve might candidly admit that next to a good fish story we enjoy the finer flights of the hunter's imagination, The above gentlemen can be relic&i upon to do their best.

NORTH SHORE CANADIAN CLUB In response to many enquiries we are informed that the new Canadian Club has been organ- ised for the benefit of those on the North Shore who are unable to attend the noonday lunches of the Canadian Club in the City of Vancouver. Meetings will be held about once a month, taking the form of a supper, (beginning at 6.30 p.m.) followed by an address the meeting concluding at 8 p.m. The Speaker will be an author- ity on his own particular subject and will be sponsored by the As- sociation of Canadian Clubs. During the last 20 years the Canadian Club have established a branch in every city and near- ly every large centre in Canada. It is not in any sense a social or service organization, . but rather an educational body of those intierested in developing a national patriotism and wish- ing to study the institutions history, arts, literature, and re- sources of Canada. The organ- ization is absolutely non-political. The ultimate object is that citizens may become so inform- ed on subjects of national inter- est as to unite Canadians in an enthusiastic endeavour for the welfare of the Dominion. The iVorth Shore Club mem- bership is available to men and women who are British subjects by birth or naturalization.
