001C95B3 August 24, 1928. THE WEST VAN NEREUS Correspondence Canadian Legion Branch, B. E. S. L., 23rd Aug., 1928. The Editor, Dear Sir:-- I have been instructed by the Executive of the Canadian Leg- ion Branch in this District to make it known that the Canadi- an Legion, of the British Empire Service League has no connec- tion with a British Columbia or- ganization entitled or called "The Federation of Veterans in B. C." nor do any of the of- ficials of the Canadian Legion hold office in such an organiza- tion. The Canadian Legion is a properly chartered Dominion or- es in Canada and with 99 branch- in Canada and with 99 branches es in British Columbia. 4Ve will be pleased to answer any inquiries on matters effect- ing the veteran or his depend- ents. F. AV. RIVERS, Secy. West Vancouver Branch NORTH SHORE INDUSTRIES GRANTED TERilINAI. RATES The North Vancouver city council has been notified by the Vancouver Harbor Commission that as a result of arrangements made with the C.P.R., C.N.R. and the Great Northern all North Shore industries on the water- front up to St. George's avenue have been granted terminal r rates similar to those now in ef- fect in Vancouver. The present arrangement af- fects those industries located east of St. George avenue, the point to which the Harbor Board's terminal railway is com- pleted, and the matter of grant- ing terminal rates to waterfront industries located west of St. George avenue will be consider- ed upon completion of the Es- planade subway and the linking up of the Harbor Board's ter- minal railway and the P.G.E. at a point west of Lonsdale avenue.

CHII.DRENsS REASONS FOR iVANTING TO GO 'TO SCHOOL (Continued from Page 5) baseball, games, making, doing, l hat calls him. Many cities seem to have overlooked the rights of the "normal" boy and girl. When the "best" teachers are the only ones who are permitted to teach the normal children (as in the special classes), and when teachers may turn occasionally to the natural, normal, creative activities which the child loves and does when released from the schoolroom, there will be a product in keeping with the time and eff'ort used for training chil- dren. Good teachers, doubtless, have always smuggled through a little creative expression for their pupils; the children betray their teachers, by going ahead in real activity throughout their lives. What is happening in our schools? In some rooms of some school buildings, children are liking schools. In the past that was not found frequently. Chil- dren had no need of liking school. Paren t and teacher alike agreed that rigid discipline and arduous tasks were the right of every child. It was something which he should expect to find. If he received his few floggings, he should not consider it more than his clue. Any accident or any impulse which might find the fatal floor to his rightful punishment. But something is happening at the schoolhouse. The child is moving toward it with eager step in some cities. The child is moving away from the school doors with a wistful glance at the close of the day. "EVhy must we have these long vacations?" asked one child in a sixth grade when meeting the principal two weeks after the schools had closed for the sum- mer. "KVe have plenty of time for vacation on Saturday and Sunday." "I wish we could have school at Christmas time, all except on Christmas Day and New Year' Day," said a little girl in early January."I'l tell you how they ought to have the schools. They ought to have school begin at 7 o'lock in the morning and keep going until 6 o'lock at night," said one little fellow who had for several years been a nuisance and torment to all teachers. These are actual happenings. The ~~iter can produce the names of all four children.-- Christian Science ~Ionitor, July 31st, 1928.
