Mr. 5Iillar officiat- ing. The bride, who was attend- ed by her sister, Mrs. N. Far- quharson, chose a becoming gown of rose georgette made with deep circular collar and a skirt of drooping circular frills. With this she ivore a poke bon- net hat appliqued in flowers to inatch her dress. Mr.,Robert Bell acted as best man. Following the ceremony a re- ception was held at the home of the bride's sister in North Van- couver for relatives and a few close friend». The rooms and the tea table had been decorated with spring flowers and the wed- ding cake centred the table. Mr. and Mrs. Bell left later in the afternoon for Seattle, the bride wearing a tweed suit in rose- wood shade, a cape coat and the same shade tailored hat. On their return Mr. and AIrs.

G. E. SURVEY TO BE STARTED (Continued from Page 1) trial areas ti ibutary to the P. G. The secontl phase of the en- quiry covering the route from Quesnel north to Prince George, i~ largely a» e»gi»eering ques- tio», and it is lear»ed that the government is endeavoring to secure the services of J. Callog- han, deputy minister of railways «nd telephones of Alberta, who divas co»»ected ivith the P. G. E. project svhen it was started, a»d who is regarded as specially qual- ifieded for this work. No defi»ite arrangement covering the em- ployment of 51r. Calloghan has bee» reached yet. It is believed that the survey will reveal the need of drastic clianges in the route of the Ques- nel-Prince George line, as origin- ally mapped out. It is quite pos- sible, in fact, that the e»gineers may recommend a large diver- sion of the existing line south of Quesnel, to avoid mud slides there, in avhich case Quesnel might be entered by a spur line. From this point north the most serious e»gineering difficulties of the whole railway project oc- cur, and it was these that large- ly deterred the former govern- ment from extending the line to Prince George. The greatest difficulty on the ~vhole route is probably the cros- sing of the Cottonwood River in this section. A huge steel bridge for this puigose was fabricated in EValkerville, Ontario, some years ago, but was never install- ed. Tivo years ago it was decid- ed to use parts of it elsewhere on the line, and when the ex- tension ultimately gets under way the whole engineering ar- rangements may be altered. To avoid the difficulty of the crossing, originally selected eng- ineers will investigate other pos- sibilities even though they in- volve the rearrangement of the route selected when the projct was first started. This route is generally regarded as unsatis- factory. Investigate Route to Peace River The engineering and economic aspects of the proposed extension north of Prince George, in the government's opinion are virtu- ally unknown. It is in the in- c estigation there that greatest interest will lie, for the solution of the railway proUlem, it is generally agreed, depends upon the line reaching the Peace River district. All the routes available for this purpose will be explored by the government's parties, and they will also make detailed ex- aminations of timber, minerals and agricultural lands which could be made to provide railway tonnage. This, the goveriiment believes, ~;ill be the first authentic and de- tailed information ever obtained about the proposed Peace River extension on which the future handling of the railway will largely depend. It is in this too,that the trans- continental railways are chiefly interested, for, if either or both of them ivere to take over the P. G. E. undoubtedly a Peace River exte»sion would form part of this project. EVhile hastening preparations for the field survey the govern- ment is contemplating the com- pilation and co-ordination of all information on the P. G. E. country, and its resources, now on official files. Not only reports filed in the railway department, but field notes of surveyors, and other similar information available to other government departments, are being pieced together as a ground work on which the new survey can be started. "The motorcar will eventually drive people underground," says a traffic expert. It does that now if it hits a man hard enough. April 5, 1929. a .EFFERIES'UI'ERIOR ".

Give Your Correct Mail Address Every now and then complaints are heard about letters and parcels coming through the mails to our residents taking considerable time to reach those for ~vhom they are intended. Many of these delays are caused by the practice of a number of residents heading letters they write with their street ad- dress, such as "2696 Marine Drive, EVest Vancouver," or simply ")Vest Vancouver." It should be always borne in mind that, so far as the Canadian postal officials are concerned, West Vancouver does not exist. Their books of reference contain only Hollyburn Post Office, Du»darave Post Office, and the various post offices in the westerly end of the municipality. A letter or parcel addressed only "West Vancouver" goes first to Hollyburn P. O. as the main post office in the district, and, if not known there, is sent in rotation to the various post offices west of it until the proper recipient is finally located. Under these circumstances one can easily realise how long a letter or parcel addressed simply to "West Vancouver" and intended for a EVhytecliff resident would take to reach its destination. An address such as "2696 Marine Drive, West Vancouver" is little better, because post office sorters outside West Van- couver do»ot know the topography of our district. A letter so addressed would be sent as before to Hollyburn P. 0. and would, of course, be then forwarded to the correct post office, but meanwhile time has been lost. Oui lesidents, therefore, should always make a point of heading their correspondent only with the name of the post office where they get their mail. The Test of Man The place to take the true measure of a man is not the forum or the feild, not the market place nor the amen corner, but at his own fireside. There he lays aside his mask, and you may judge whether he's an angel, king or cur, hero or humbug. I care not what the world says of him, whether it crown him with bays, or pelts him with bad eggs. I care not one whit what his reputation or religion may be. If his babies dread his home-coming and his better half swallows her heart every time she has to ask him for a $5 hill, he's a fraud of the first water, even though he prays night and morning till he's black in the fact and howls hallelujah till he shakes the eternal hills. But if his children rush to the front gate to greet him, and love's own sunshine illumines the face of his wife when she hears his footfall, you may take it for granted that he's true gold, for his home's a heaven, and the humbug never gets that near the great white throne of God.--From The Bullock Way.
