WANTS / DOG'S INSTINCT GUIDES RESIDENT ENGINEER HIilI TO LOCAL HOGTIE CLASSIFIED ADS The Corporation of KVest Van- couver advertises a vacancy for the position of instrument man and resident engineer for the ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ construction of seven miles of Marine Drive. The duration of the work is expected to be about four months. Applications must be in by 5 p.m. next i~Ionday. June 18th. Whimsical Review Wife, reading: "It says here they have found a long-legged sheep in the Hirnilaya mountains that can run 40 miles an hour." Her Hubby: "IVell, it would take a lamb like that to follow hfary now- adaysa. "Sir," said the student to the dean of the college. "I want permission to be away three days after the end of vacation." "Ah, you want three more days of grace T" "No, sir," faltered the student, "I want three more days of Gertrude."-- Capper's IVeekly. A Doggone Good Story There was n mnn who had three dogm. One evening when he came home he found all three of them asleep on his couch. He whipped them nnd drove them away. The next night when he came home, the dogs were lying on the floor. But he placed his hand on the couch nnd found it warm from their bodies. Therefore, he gave them another whip- ping. The third night, returning earlier than usual, he found the dogs sitting before the couch, blowing on it to cool it. "IVhy is it, mother, that some have dimples while others have moneyT" "Dimples, my son, are given only to those who have bi'.en kissed by angels." "IVell, daddy ought to have them by now, for I heard him call the maid an angel last night, nnd he made her kiss him three times before he would let her come down stairs." IVntch It Develop An Englishman, n Scotchman nnd an Irishman were arguing as to who had hnd certain things the longest. The Englishman said: "I'e hnd this horse ever since it wns n colt." The Scotchman said: "Ive hnd this cow ever since it was a calf." "IVell, that's nothing," exclaimed the Irishman. "I'e hnd this cart ever since it wns a wheelbarrow." Benjamin IYould Enjoy This "Who can give n sentence using the word pendulums" asked the teacher. Little Rachel's hand shot up. The teacher nodded encouragingly. "Lightning wns invented by Pendu- lum Franklin." "Did my father leave an order with you this morning for r load of wood v" naked a strange but attractive young indy of n well-known planing mill mnn. "I don't know, miss," he replied. "There wns n gentleman in who said to deliver n load to n driver who would call, and said it wns for Nr. Zell." "Yes, thank you," said she, "I'm Glndys Zell." "Eh, what?" gulped the millmnn. "I'm Glndys Zell," she repeated. "Oh, yes," he replied, "So'm I." Brain-IVork Stuff Farmer: "Thought you said you hnd plowed the ten-acre field" Plowman "No; I only said I wns thinking about plowing it.'Oh, I see. You'e merely turned itover in your mind." There are no forts along the border, but there's many a "dead soldier" there. Two Chicago men died recently and met in the Great Beyond. "IVell, Jim," said one of them, "heaven is a pretty nice place, after all." First Yegg: "Hnd any heavy jobs lately 7" Second Yegg: "Nix-- I ain't hndlin'o more murders till I finiah me cor- respondence course in insanity." Have You Ever Noticed? When the other fellow takes time to do things, he is "dead slow"; when you do it, you are "deliberate." When the other fellow spends n lot, he is a "spendthrift"; when you do, you are "generous." When the other fellow picks flaws in things, he's "cranky"; when you do, you are "discriminating." 3iIr. and illrs. Isabel Grant, of East Beach lost their collie dog "Rex" on Sunday somewhere be- tween Grandview and Lulu Is- land. Rex turned up on Tues- day at his home here. His wet and dirty appearance testified to the fact that he had travelled many weary miles on his self- conducted return trip. As he did not cross the inlet via the SVest Vancouver ferries and had been taken 'once across the Second Narrows bridge, it is thought that he came that ivay. In any case the fact that he was able to find his way home at all says a great deal for his sagacity. EVhen the other fellow is mild in his manners,he is a "mush of conces- sion"; when you are, it is being "gracious." GEN. A. D. iblcRAE, AI.P., RETURNS THIS WIONTH General A. D. &IcRae, North Vancouver's member in the Fed- eral House, will leave England for Canada on June 16, accord- ing to information received at his office in North Vancouver. General lIIcRae will reach Van- couver about the end of June. Whatever I have tried to do in life I have tried with all my heart to do well, whatever I have devoted myself to, I have devoted myself to com- pletely.--Charles Dickens. BASEBALL West Van.
