Lefeaux gave in great detail an explana- tion of the method of voting nown as P. R. (proportional representation). The audience istened very carefully and atten- tively to the speaker as he un- folded the reasons and methods of this mode of balloting, which is used in the local elections. The repetitions which could not well be avoided by oral explhnation could, we think, have been made much simpler and been more quickly understood, had the speaker used a blackboard and written the figures as did Mr. King aml Dr. Telford, who visit- ed West Vancouver several times to educate and guide the people at the inception of this style of counting the ballots. After Mr. Lefeaux's address the meeting took up the regular course nt business. The road anrl bridge by-law was again dis- cussed and the meeting went on record as condemning the atti- tude of the Council in its de- cision to again submit this by- law to the electors in January. A strong effort will be made by the association to have a ferry by-law submitted for the approv- al of the electors in January. The different speakers urged the ne- cessity of the construction of a new boat in time for the heavy traffic expected next summer, it being claimed that the present fleet is totally inadequate to properly care for much increase in the number of passengers. Resolutions covering these two matters were drawn up to be pre- sented to the council by a strong delegation of members. Mr. P. C. Chapman, the president, was in the chair. Apple Marmalade Pare, quarter and core apples l and put on to cook just enough water to prevent burning. Cover l k closely and when soft, put . through a colander. Measure the I I pulp and to each cupful add three-quarters of a cup of sugar and the juice of one lemon. Stir ~ and conk until when a little is dropped on a cold plate, it does I~ not separate. Green Tomato Relish One peck green tomatoes, six cups sugar, one pound chopped raisins, two teaspoons salt, two tablespoons cinnamon. One cup vinegar, one cup chopped apples. Nutmeg and allspice to taste. May be used now or sealed for winter use. Creamed Cabbage with Cheese Chop cooked cabbage finely and put a layer in a buttered baking dish. Cover with cheese sauce. Repeat these layers until the dish is full. Spread with butter- ed bread crumbs and serve hot. The cheese sauce may be added to the cabbage and served with- out putting in the oven or with- out adding bread crumbs. Sliced Cucumber Pickle. One dozen medium sized cu- cumbers (about seven inches long), three large onions, one teaspoon white mustard seed, one teaspoon celery seed, one tea- spoon tumeric, one cup vinegar, one cup sugar. Without peeling the cucumbers, slice them and soak for two hours in cold salt +water. Drain, add the sliced on- ions and cook slowly in the vine- gar mixture until the cucumbers become transparent. The spices may be tied in a cloth. Seal while hot. A number of West Vancouver young men, who have been en- gaged in the halwest fiields in Alberta and Saskatchewan for some weeks, have now returned to their homes here. Among those who have come back are Jack Stratton, Frank Kastner, Morris Emerton Court, Art Creel- man, and Arnold Malpass. While good wages were paid, they re- port that operations generally were much delayed by heavy rain from time to time which made work intetnnittent and re- sulted in their having to do con- siderable travelling from place to place in order to keep them- selves steadily employed. Harvesters'ot Pie In a casserole or baking dish place three large onions cut in rings. Add a'enerous table- spoon of bacon drippings or drip- ping from the original cooking of the meat. Over these place the meat, whether it be beef, lamb or veal, cut in cubes. Dust lightly with pepper and salt. Stuff in halves of cold boiled or baked potatoes and two or three small whole tomatoes. Cook for about two hours or a little long- er. Shortly before serving add a can of little French peas, or the left-over peas from another dinner. A crisp salad and a cold drink with this dish makes a whole dinner. This makes a deli- cious pot pie if (for the last half- hour of the baking) a rich pastry top is put over the dish and the stew allowed to brown. 51RS. A. ROBINSON ENTERS NEW BUSINESS Mrs. A. Robinson, who former- ly operated the Ambleside Beau- ty Parlor, is opening a business in part of the West Van. Jewel- ler's store for the sale of hand- painted specialties.

O. E. (Benevolent Protective Order of Elks) make it their business to anticipate Christmas and to pre- pare themselves so as to give as much pleasure and happiness as possible to the needy and friendless. It is an endeavour which should have the whole- hearted support of everyone, and it needs only that our attention be drawn to this for it to receive whatever assistance we can give. The Elks endeavour to raise a fund for this purpose by giving value in kind for money received. They ask you to attend a dance. The money received from the sale of tickets goes almost whol- ly to swell the funds, as the members of the organization do- nate their services free of charge. Musical concerts, draw- ings, and other pleasurable hap- penings are arranged as patt of their programme for this pur- pose. The North Shore Elks are a live bunch. They are determined that this year not a single case of want on the North Shore shall be allowed to spend a bare Christmas. Hampers filled with good things to eat will be pre- sented to every such family, and the Elks need your assistance to make their Christmas Cheer Fund big enough to do the thing properly. On Friday December 2nd you are invited to a dance in Holly- burn Pavilion. It will be a good dance, and you can be sure ot having a fine old time. You will get real value for the price of your ticket. Don't forget to keep this date open. The follow- ing Friday December 9th the North Vancouver Elks will put on a musical recital at the K. P. hall, North Vancouver, starting at 8.15 p.m. Here is another chance to help the fund and still receive a 100 cents on the dollar in personal pleasure. Don't forget your own Christ- mas will be made much happier by giving ivhat assistance you can to those who are less afflu- ent. All ihe world's a stage, and most of us merely stagehands.

Nowadays a father cannot tell whether he has married a daugh- ter off or a son-in-law in. a Many a motorist is guilty of driving in a state of extreme in- fatuation. In the olden days when a man was run down he used to take a tonic. Now he takes an ambu- lance. Any considerate motorist will give a woman half of the road if he knows which half she wants. An optimist is a man who of- fers odds of ten to one and will bet on either side. A man waits until he is thirty to get matTied and a woman re- mains thirty until she is married. The present day young man seems to know how to hold on to a girl better than a job. He who laughs last is the one man who hadn't heard the joke before. a The broad and gilded highway that leads to destruction is often only a narrow, muddy country road.
