He stated that i» the event of a flood comi»g in the fall No. 1 crib on the ivest bank (first crib coming down stream) connects with the bank at a point xvhere the said bank is clay or hardpa» and that this material divas wash- i»g away each wi»ter. There divas a danger of the flood breaking it. This could be obviated by putting in a stroiig crib filled with rock bedded in concrete which svith all auxiliary work to guard this point ivould, he estimated, cost $900. The mat- ter was laid over. THE illISSING CIIINKS Three Chinese laundrymen there were Who toiled the livelong day, Till one broke down from overwork Anil went insane, they say. His yellow brethren deemed it wise To take him down the track And put him in a madhouse Till his wits he should get back. A fast express roared by just then An&i through the trio cut. That evening on the tracks were found Two ivashers and a nut.

RESUAIE OF COUNCIL'S DISCUSSIONS REGARDING WIARINE DRIVE RECONSTRUCTION (Continued from Page 1) g awarded to Ellis-Cotton Company. AVhen our tender was put in, we assumed, as we ivere entitled to assume, that it would be dealt with on business-like Pgtiv0 lines and with reasonable promptness. More than nine weeks have since elapsed, and still no definite conclusion has been reached. There is no sufficient cause for this unreasonable delay, which not only involves the loss of many weeks of goodweather conditions, but the uncertainty of whether we are orare not going to get the contract (despite the fact that we werethe lowest tenderers) is becoming embarrassing to us in regardto taking other business, especially from the State of Washing-ton where our product is viewed most favorably. We understand that there is a difference of opinion in thecouncil as to the contract being finally awarded to us and underthe circumstances outlined above, especially the recommenda-tion of the Deputy Minister of Public Works, we are preparedto withdraw our tender on condition that our deposit of $7,000is promptly returned to us. 15th and ilIarine LIAIITED Phone AVest 115 Make West Vancouver Prosperous by Patronizing Your Local Merchants. .V..oi led i:0, ORJ i on First ilIortgage at current rates.
