NEW STEPS to ALTAMONT PARK The entrance to Altamont Park and Beach has been much improved by the construction of new steps.at the south-east cor­ ner. There is now a good en­ trance from Park Lane with plenty of room for auto parking. It is not now necessary to make a direct crossing of the railway track at 29th street. The new steps will be a great convenience to users of the beach at this point. We would suggest that the council have a sign erected on Marine Drive advertising the approach to Altamont Park, which seems to be very little known to our residents. Death of William Millard The death of William Millard occurred in his 56th year on Friday at his home on Mathers avenue after a lingering illness.

Mrs. B. Cuthbert of West Vancouver has been con­ ducting life saving classes since the beginning of July and her pupils have made good progress. "Is your wife a good cook?" "I should say so.
