AVe have referred elsewhere to the suc- cess of Miss Brealey; and we can o»lv repeat our expressions of gratification and goodwill. An- other local student, Mr. Edward Pretious, received the degree of Bache]or of Applied Science in Class 1 of Civil Engineering. Ted Pretious is known to most people in )Vest Vancouver as a steady and hard-working young man who has had to make his own way through the university, a»d who will enter on his pro- fession with the full knowledge of what hard work means, He wi]] take his p]ace at once as a man among men. Our con- gratulations are due, not only to him, but to his mother, Mrs. Pretious, whose quiet, unfalter- ing courage has played such a ].Iart in his success. Turning to the other students whose name" appear in the lists of the successful, we find Miss Helen Bell and AIr. H. D. South- am in the coveted class of in third year arts, and Miss Peggy Cornish in the second class of the same year and Miss Margar- et Clement. The second year' lists contains the name of Miss Jean Hood; while Miss Eleanor Brine appears in the first year' list. Mr. Thomas Hadwin and Mr. Edward Lunn who have tak- en first and second places re- spectively in the fourth year of electrical engineering. This is a very creditable list; and we congratulate all concern- ed. The teachers, who laid the foundations of knowledge and in- stilled the lesson of keen and steady work; the parents, who made heavy sacrifices and gave up their own ease to secure for their boys and girls the oppor- tunity to engage in the higher studies; and the boys a»d girls themselves, who shouldered the burdens of the student life with courage and perseverance,--ail these deserve our congratula- tions and our best wishes. SPRINKLING RATES ABOLISHED The rate for sprinkling with garden hose (which has here- tofor been fixed at $2 per season up to half an acre and for each addi tiona] half acre or fraction thereof $2) was abolished by the council at their meeting on Mon- day night. Permissio» was granted the Crippled Children's Hospital to tag in )Vest Vancouver, but not oii the municipal ferries, on Sat- urday, May 18th, 1929. t II 3uy I.rom tie ..oca, .'ruggist I If you had to travel a long distance, pirticularly at night,to have that prescription filled, you'd probably give the matter serious thought. You d bring the matter up, perhaps, at theboard of trade, and propose offering inducements to have aprescription druggist locate in the»eighborhood. I I Has it occurred to you that your neighborhood druggistcannot maintain a well equipped prescription pharmacy onprofessional services alone? Therefore he carries a stock ofhousehold goods--»iany very suitable for holiday gifts. "Shopat your druggist's."

BREALEY LECTURES TO SENIOR STUDENTS The lanter» lecture of Prin- cipal Brealey on "Yorkshire" was given to the four senior c]asses of the Pauline Johnson School last EVedne~day after- noori. A number of the pupils had been a»xious to attend at the time of its delivery to the Literary Society but had been asked by Mr. Porter to wait un- ti] a special afternoon delivery cou]d be arranged for. On this occasion Mr. Brealey used the same slides as before, but modi- fied his lecture to emphasize the contrast between the pupils'wn i]istrict, whose occupation by civilized ma» was an event of yesterday, a»d an English shire nn which religion and feudalism and war had been setting their mark for centuries. The lecture in its altered form was quite as siiccessful as at its first delivery.

A. Mr. A. S. Matheson, who will address the local P. T. A. at Pauline Johnson School next 'l'uesday evening, is well quali- fied to deal with the subject of Junior High School. Mr. Mathe- son will speak on the subject"The Junior High School in the Fuburban District." It is hoped there will be a large attendance to hear him. Mr. Matheson was for ten vears the principal of the Public Schools of Penticton, and has the distinction of organizing and directing the first Junior School in the Province. Since the classes in Penticton have now completed three years of work and are continuing their studies in High School, the practical pro- ~b]ems of relating the Junior and Senior High Schools have been faced already by Mr. Matheson. The Department of Education asked the Penticton Principal to have a part in arranging the Curriculum for the Junior High Hchoo]. Mr. Matheson's special contribution was the course known as Social Studies. This means a socializing of History and Geography changing them froin textbook subjects to studi- es related to the practical prob- lems and experiences of daily life. This work is of recognized merit. Mr. Matheson is now Principal of the University Hill School,Pt. Grey, and )Vest Vancouver is fortunate in having available as a speaker one who knows this important question from its foundation in British Columbia. A. H. D. l'ieemant]e of Van- couver, has moved into a house at 1136 Jefferson. The Hollyburn Public Library wishes to thank the following for donations of books: Miss E. Mac- fie, Miss AVi]son, John Nyland, a friend, Mrs. Stark, Mr. and Mi's. H. V. Bell. Professor and Mrs. L.

Mrs. AVa]]er lived here for many years at 1361 Mari»e Drive, and has a host of friends and acquaintances in the district. She expects tn be in and arourd Vancouver for a couple of weeks.
