"What kind of bait are you using?" queried the salesman. "Terbacker," replied the boy. "How can you catch fish with to­ bacco?" asked the thoroughly inter­ ested salesman. "'At's easy!" said the lad. "Fish eat the terbacker off the hook and when they come to the surface to spit, I knocks 'em in the head with this pole." NORTH SHORE MOUNTAINS COVERED WITH SNOW Many of those who had intend­ ed to go up Grouse Mt. on Monday were prevented by the heavy rain. The few who did go up, however, thoroughly enjoyed themselves in the snow around the chalet, and on the mountain trails. Snow was on the ground below the level of the Mosquito creek bridge and from there to the top the depth of the snow increased. It was six inches or more deep on top. It was snow­ ing up in the mountains all morn­ ing and part of the afternoon. COUNCILLOR RAY FINDS IT HARD TO GET AWAY FROM WEST VANCOUVER We all know how difficult it is to leave West Vancouver. We may go away for a very short time say for an annual holiday of two weeks ,but like chickens we "come home to roost," and that roost is in West Vancouver. Councillor Ray has been threat­ ening or at least has announced his determination to leave us for a few months to visit his mother in his native land. He has not gone yet. Nor is he likely to go--at present. For now the law in the shape of a Chinaman has stepped in, and between the Chinaman and the lure of West Vancouver to wtfiich we 'have referred above the Councillor has simply got to stay with us a little longer. The case is yet un­ settled. and it looks as though the Chairman of Public Works may be with us for the Christ­ mas celebrations. A gardener spent his evenings studying architecture and became famous while working in his employ­ er's garden. A blacksmith earned his living working at his trade, and in spare time, learned eighteen languages and twenty-two dialects, which brought him money and fame. A shoe cobbler became a great nat­ uralist while working at his bench. A common printer discovered elec­ tricity with two sticks and a silk hand- kercheif, probably having borrowed the latter. A baker became one of the world's distinguished astronomers. A farmer experimented and worked during the long winter nights, and finally brought forth the invention of printing calico in its many pretty colors. AUTOMOBILITIS Don't try to scare locomotives with your horn. A road hog roots up macadam with his nose. Drive with care--you may meet a fool. Keep your hands on the wheel--let your girl hug yourself. Sounds Wise Enough -- A word to the anxious--Don't pick a girl by the way she fits into your arm--but by the way she fits into your life. -- Cal­ gary Herald. "I suggest, sir," roared the brow-beating barrister, "that you are obviously an unscrupu­ lous liar. Am I right?" "Well," replied the mild-look- ing witness, "I suggest you are obviously a perfect gentleman-- and we're both about equally wrong." North Shore Jubilee Canadian Club At a meting of the North Shore Canadian Club held on Wednesday evening, the mem­ bers heard a masterly address by B. A. McKelvie, an outstanding authority on the History of Brit­ ish Columbia and the terms und­ er which this province entered Confederation. The speaker's address was in­ structive and interesting especi­ ally at this time when the Prov­ incial Premiers are meeting in Ottawa to discuss among them­ selves and wit hthe Federal Gov­ ernment matters pertaining to the rights of the respective prov­ inces. Mr. McKelvie asserted that a transcontinental railway would have been built even if British Columbia had not entered con­ federation. the Imperial Policy being that a direct connection would be made between the shor­ es of the Atlantic and the Pa­ cific Coasts in order to bind the heart of the Empire with its outlying possessions across the Pacific Ocean. The speaker urged that if there must be a just agreement on the matter of land grants, and he urged that the logical court for the settlement of any existing disptes would be the Imperial Privy Council. To add force to his contentions, the speaker quoted at length fro mmany doc­ uments and letters written by Imperial statesmen, Governor Generals, and Dominion Minist­ ers of the time, providing con­ vincing evidence as to the just­ ice of the claims now being male by this province.
