001C9518 May 11, 1928. LIEUT.-GOV. BRUCE TO OPEiV RED CROSS FAIR CORRESPONDENCE THE AVEST VANi NESVS JUNIOR AUXILIARY TO GIVE PLAYS CLASSmIRD Ans North Vancouver Red Cross Society has received a let- ter from the Lieut;Governor saying that he and hIiss ~Iac- . Kenzie will attend and open the l British Empire Red Cross Fairin North Vancouver on Saturday 16th June. Arrangements are being made for a Guard of Honor to meet him at the Ferry tVharf and the Seaforth Cadets Band will play along the route to the Fair grounds. He will be welcomed by the officials and past presi- dents of the Red Cross and also by 41ayor 1Iorden, who is the honorary president of the branch. .v'IBERALSCHOOSE DELE- GATES AT CONVENTION The IVest Vancouver Liberal Association met in Ambleside Hall last Tuesday evening to dh- cuss and make arrangements re- garding the nominating conven- tion which has been called for to- morrow night. and which will be held in North Vancouver. There was a good attendance of mem- bers and a spirited discussion took place. Opposing factions gave full expression to their opinions and desires as to rep- resentation a0 the nominating convention. Delegates were ult- imately chosen, but this action did not have the unanimity which is usual at such meetings. Get a Transfer Youth: "Doctor, I'm continually ~hinking of my girl. Can you not ad- vise me how to get her off my mindT" Doctor: "hlarry her, young man." Youth: "IVhat good will that do?" Doctor: "Then you'l have her on your hands." Her Excuse "4Vhy did you strike your husband with the rolling pinT" "Well, you see, judge. I wanted to make him level-headed." IVants Better Ferry Service. At the present time all manner of improvements are being pro- jected by our council for the fur- therance of IVest Vancouver as a desirable residential location. To further this worthy object, a matter of prime importance, if not the chief, is an improved fer- ry service. Cannot 4Vest Van- couver residents enjoy the ad- vantages of a regular half-hour ferry service as their neighbors in North Vancouver do? This would obviate what is at present a serious inconvenience to those who, returning from work in the city, or beyond its bounds, arrive just in time to find the 6.30 p. m. ferry for )Vest Vancouver gone, and so have to while away what seems an interminably long sixty min- utes til] 7.30 p. m. This precious hour could so much more profit- ably and happily be spent in one's garden than in chewing the cud of disappointment and helplessness wandering aimless- ly about the streets or tediously spent waiting at the wharf. If a ferry must be withdrawn, why not an early afternoon one which can so much better be spared? In drawing the attention of the people to this grievance, I feel I speak of a matter which can be easily righted. SEPTIMA HORA DIr. and Mrs. Lionel Haweis entertained at a delightful affair recently, when a group of Uni- versity students were their guests at their home at Cypress Park.

COLFIX is the result of years of scientific research on the part of Petroleum Tech- nologists of Great Britain in their endeavours to remedy the defects in the system of applying Hot Asphalt and Tar to roads. ADVANTAGES OF THE COLFIX PROCESS, By the cold or emulsion process, the bitumen is in such a finely divided state that the stones are not separated by any appreciable thickness of bitumen, and in consequence the aggregate after consolidation is really a solid mass of stone, each particle being cemented to its neighbor by the thinnest possible film of bitumen. The cold process for using bitumen therefore possesses many distinct advantages, a feiv of which are.'-- (1) Saving in cost of the finished road, as bitumen is not wasted. (2) The fact that the cold process road cannot become "wavy" in hot weather owing to the absence of excess bitumen. (3) The use of the most suitable grade of bitumen for road construction. (4) The use of plant or expensive machinery of all kinds, with the exception of the road roller, is eliminated. ECONOAIY Economy with efficiency is more important now than ever it has been. THE "COLFIX" lVAY IS THE lVAY OF ECONO~IY No time nor money lost in heating. No time lost during wet weather. No surcharges for fuel, haulages, upkeep of plant or labour. No plant required, as the "Colfix" way is From the barrel or tank to the road. It is the last word in Bitumen as applied to road construction. USES COLFIX is used for spraying road surfaces, high grade paving of streets. COLFIX PREMIER for asphalt, concrete, Repairing pot holes, School Playgrounds, Tennis Courts, Garden Paths. COLFIX SIDEWALKS can be laid so economically that the most Outlying Sections of the ilIunicipality can have this very necessary improvement. COLFIX BINDS ROADS iVITH 100,o ASPHALT.
