The parade formed on Esplan- ade West a»d proceeded to Ma- hon Park, North Vancouver, headed by the city and district fire apparatus a»d a brass band. The queen followed in the car- riage used by the Duke and Duchess of York three decades ago and was escorted by a guard of honor composed of cubs, brownies, boy scouts and girl guides. Civic officials and mem- bers of the committee of organ- ization came next. Reaching Mahon Park, the quee»-elect and the former queen were led through lanes of boy scouts to a dais where former Reeve Sydney Gisby, presented Mayor G. H. Morden. Mayor Morden made a short address i» which he spoke of the value of May Day celebra- tions to the municipalities and particularly to the children. Taking the crown from her own head, former Queen Mar- guerite Lee placed it upon the head of the newly chosen queen. Then Mayor Morden and Reeve J. 3I. Fromme of North Vancou- ver district, presented Queen Christian with a golden key symbolic of the freedom of the municipalities. Fololwing the coronation and presentation of the key, maypole dances were given by two teams under the direction of Miss Gladys Earland and Miss Beryl Rogers. Miss Rogers'eam won by a score of 19-17. The royal party was then taken on an official tour of the three municipalities, stopping at the hospital to leave flowers with the patients, and at the ceno- taph and memorial arch to de- posit wreaths. The coronation dinner was served in the Elks'ome, provid- ed by the B.P.O.E. and the day closed with a dance in the drill hall. THE hlAN THAT OiVCE I hlEAiVT TO BE I knew his face the moment that he passed Triumphant in the thoughtless, cruel throng-- Triumphant, though the tired quiet eyes Showed that his soul had suffered overlong. And though across his brow faint lines of care Were etched, somewhat of Youth still lingered there. I gently touched his arm--he smiled at me- He was the hinn that Once I meant to be. Where I had failed, he'd won from life success; Where I had stumbled, with sure feet he trod; Alike -- yet unalike -- we faced the world, And through the stress he found that life was good! And I? The bitter wormwood in the glass, The shadowed way along with failures pass. Yet as I saw him thus, joy came to He was the Man that Once I meant to Be. Theatre Tickets given with every 50c purchase.

ARCHERS ENJOY BASKET PICNIC Vancouver Company of Arch- ers, the parent body of the bow and arrow enthusiasts in Va»- couver, opened their 1928 season'ith a basket picnic and shoot at Brockton Point Thursday aft- ernoon. About 30 archers, includ- ing some of the AVest Vancouver club, were on hand, and a line afternoon's sport was enjoyed. Impromptu shoots were held, after which the party partook of refreshments. AVe did not speak. But in his sapient eyes I saw the spirit that had urged him on, The courage that had held him through the fight Had once been mine. I thought, "Can it be gone?" He felt that unasked question--felt it so H:s pale lips formed the one-word answer, "No!" Too late to win? No! Not too late for me- He is the Man that Still I Mean to Be.
