COUNCILLORS OF NORTH SHORE URGE HARBOR RAIQAVAY EXTENSION At the North Vancouver Dis- trict Council meeting AVednes- day evening, a special commit- tee consisting of Reeve J. M. Fromme and Councillors A. %V. AVhitaker, G. W. )Iarshall and J. M. Bryan was appointed to in- terview the Vancouver Harbor Commission, urging the exten- s&on of the board's terminal rail- way east of the Second Narrows bridge to give railway facilities to industries located there. Councillor A. W. AVhitaker stated that although the Harbor Board had informed the council it had made an investigation of the situation and had found that extension of the terminal railway was not warranted at the pres-et time, he had been informed that such is not the case. "Industries located on tho waterfront east of the Second Narrows bridge want the rail- way," said Councillor AVhitaker. The council adopted his sugges- tion that the heads of the in.- dustries concerned be added to the committee that will inter- view the Harbor Board. He: "I wonder how long I could live without any brains." She: "Time will tell." A rather stout man was hav- ing difficulties under his car when he looked out and saw a boy sitting on the fence. "KVhat are you doing there?" he asked. "I was just watchin'," replied the boy. "And if "And if what?" "And if I could run faster, I'd laugh." August 2, 1929. Once a customer, alivays a customer. .
