TERDIINAL IS SOUGHT BY NORTH SHORE ROBERTS'ETTER MEATS Thornton llleets 51embers of Councils Sir Henry Thornton, president of the Canadian National Rail- ways, accompanied by officials of the ivestern division, confer- red with members of the North Vancouver city and district coun- cils last )Vednesday with respect to the establishment of C.N.R. terminals on this side of the In- let. Following presentation of the North Shore's case by Mayor G. H. Morden, Sir Henry said: "This is not a new proposition to me. For three years I have been examining the situation in Vancouver with considerable anxiety. AVe know there will be very rapid development in Van- couver, and the past has given us an inkling of what to expect in the future." Sir Henry briefly referred to rapid development in the Orient- al trade and what it held for the future of Canada's Pacific met- ropolis.

That railway has pre-empted the most import- ant and stategic points. AVe have had to content ourselves with what we could find and what we could get. "The financial standing of the C.N.R. in years past made it nec- essary for us to proceed slowly. Considerable money has been ex- pended in the provision of branch lines and we have had to spend a lot of money to put ourselves or. a par with our competitors, or leave the field." Referring to the local situation Sir Henry said: "This situation calls for care- ful examination and investiga- tion a& must be approached with the avowed object of serv- ing the community to give to the pnrt of Greater Vancouver the facilities that are needed and at the same time acquiring for ourselves a portion of the traffic that is justly ours. Reference was made to recent changes effected in the C.N.R. staff. One of the reasons for those changes, said Sir Henry, was to give ample opportunity tn pay special attention to local conditions. Will Seek Solution "The Vancouver situation will be carefully scrutinized with a view to finding a permanent so- lution to our terminal problem. This will have to be done on a very comprehensive scale. Councillor and Mrs. W. Blair and family returned last week end after a holiday of almost two weeks spent at "The Retreat," Craig's Crossing, Vancouver Is- land. Mr. and Mrs. Abe Rothstein returned a few days ago to their home at AVest Bay after a visit to New York and other eastern cities.

Mr. Gentle- man is home on holiday from Anyox. C. A. Cunningham of the Can- adian National Railway, Winni- peg office, and brother of Milton Cunningham, 29th and Marine Drive, paid a visit to West Van- couver yesterday. 1578 h1 ARIN E D RIVE CALL WE8 190 RECIPES Squaw Hash Fry eight slices of bacon, cut fine. Pour off the fat if there is too much. Then add two cans of corn and one green pepper, washed, seeded and finely chop- ped. Add salt if necessary, and cook until brown, stirring often to prevent burning. Chocolate Prune Gelatin To one package of prepared chocolate gelatin add one pint boiling water. Let cool, and when about ready to eat add one cup of sterned and stoned prunes cut in small pieces. Serve with whipped cream. This dessert can be made early in the day. Menu Hint A plate of potato soup is a good start for luncheon. With a salad or a dish of rhubarb sauce and some good whole wheat bread and butter, it makes a very good luncheon indeed. Don't peel your rhubarb at this time of the year. Wash and cut it up with the peeling on and cook enough water to make it juicy. ENGAGEMENT Mr. and Mrs. A. E.
