On th was erected on Georgia Street There are many beautiful monuments irell worthy of a vis- it located in and around the City of Vancouver. These monu- ments are seen by many thous- ands of tourists every year, yet possibly quite a number of them are known to a comparatively small number of the actual resi- dents of the city. The majority of the monu- ments of Vancouver are situat- ed in Stanley Park, and apart from the delightful surround- ings and environment of the park itself, the historical interest and architectural beauty of these monuments merit the attention of all. Near to the entrance to Stanley Park is a monument er- ected to the memory of Queen Victoria by the school children The executive assistant of the P. G. E. Railway has written the council informing them that Old Marine Drive crossing is receiv- ing attention. The opening of a trail on Hay- wood Avenue west of 23rd Street as applied for by F. J. Trough- ton would cost $ 175 according to the report of the municipal eng- ineer. This expenditure was authorized by the council. The municipal engineer report- ed that the portion of Imperial Ave. running from Marine Drive had an unworkable grade, but vehicle access for J. Bruce might be found from another starting point. The matter was referred back to the engineer for investi- gation and report. The municipal engineer report- ed on Herbert Curry's applica- tion for clearing and grading Dufferin Street north of Marine Drive. This had been opened many years ago, but was now badly overgrown and the largest cedar stump in the district was in the middle of it. It could be reopened at a cost of $335. The council could not see their way to do this, but advised Mr. Curry that, if he contemplated build- ing, the best access possible would be given him. The Tyee Machinery Co.'s bill for $8,275 was ordered by the council to be submitted to the municipal solicitor, and on his approval a cheque sent for same. The municipal engineer report- ed that the lane in Block "R," D. L. 775 giving access to a number of business premises was in need of grading and had been a sub- ject of complaint in the winter months. As these two lanes were adjacent they might as well be done at the same time. The cost would be $50, which expenditure was authorised. Tenders Invited The funeral of the late MajorEV. B.
