STEPHEN'S W. A. TO GIVE TEA Big Increases The distribution of liquor profits to the various municipal- ities in the province has just been authorized by order-in- council, which was signed on the return of His Honor the Lieuten- ant-Governor to the city this meek. There is distributed a- mong the seventy-three munici- palities embracing city, district, township and village corpora- tions $682,919, covering the six months ended March 31, 1929. The distribution nom made is based on the largest returns from liquor profits that has yet been obtained. This amount very far exceeds that of the corresponding half- year covering a similar period of six months ended March 31, 1928 when the total distribution to the n1unicipalities ~ras $559,479. The amount distributed from March 31, 1928, to September 30, 1928, was $541,112. There has been some delay in the making of the distribution which is explained by the depart- ment of finance as due to the fact that as the distrubution is now made up on the basis of the daily attendance in the schools of the municipalities, there had to be obtained from the superintend- ent of education his certificate covering the school attendance in the municipalities up to the end of June last when the schools closed. AVest Vancouver mill get $6545 North Vancouver City $13091, and North Vancouver District $6730. A Scotch farmer who had a- greed to deliver 20 hens to the local market sent only 19 birds. "Man, you'e late with that last hen," expostulated the deal- er,when the farmer brought it late in the afternoon.

DEiWIOLITION OF CAPILAN BRIDGE PROGRESSING Demolition work on the old Capilano bridge is progressing rapidly. The western approach has been removed, and in its place a very large fill built of stones taken from tht; main bed of the river is being made. The approach to the new bridge will be built on this fill, which will extend northward to the old pro- tective cradle above the bridge. The easterly approach has been also taken down, and prepara- tions are under way to remove the centre trestle as it stands. So far no blasting work of any kind on the cement structure has been done, but the easterly end of the bridge has collapsed on one side at its foundations as a result of the pier being under- mined by water.
