Acting on instructions from Hon. N. S. Lougheed, minister of public works, engineers in all districts will see that all adver- tising matter fringing public roads is removed and destroyed. i~lr. Lougheed made it clear, however, that he was seeking iiot the hostility but the co-op- eration of business men in pro- tecting the highways in this way. He said he hoped in future no drastic action would be neces- stiry to keep the roads free of signs, which can not be erected legally without his permission. 1(ecently a number of new signs appeared on leading highways and prompted the present action. Operators of tourist camps and farmers selling products by the roadside have nothing to fear from the removal of adver- tising signs. The government desires to encourage such busi- ness and will allow reasonable signs directing travellers to es- tablished resorts. Farmers who keep stalls at their gates for the sale of fruit, vegetables and other products also will be al- lowed to erect signs, but it is intended that this shall be done under official supervision, so that no signs are erected at dangerous curves that woultl dis- tract a driver's attention.

TELEPHONE COMPANY THE WEST VAN NE%'S HOLLYBURX PUBLIC LIBRARY The Hollyburn Public I.ibrary during the past few months has niade splendid progress. The new board appointed earlier in the year is most enthusiastic, and is making the library a real fnrce in the community. A large number of volumes of'he newe:lt fiction have heen pur- chased during the spring and summer, and the shelf space and general accommodatioan for the library in the IVest Van. Phar- macy has been considerably ex- tended and improved. The li- hrary has the support of the provincial library in Victoria, from which many hooks are re- ceived from time to time for the use of its subscribers. Only recently one of the chief off icials of the provincial li- brary, who came here on an in- spection trip, expressed his sur- prise at the great progress Nhich had been made, and later sent one of his staff to instruct the officers of the library in the repair of hooks. The member- ship of'he library has largely increased this summer and will continue to do so under the pres- ent up-to-date policy pursued by the board. This last week 40 new vol- umes have been added to the shelves. The membership fee takes in the whole year from January, but a special low fee up to the end of this year is now being given. URGES ROAD TO I'OIVELL RIVER IVould Connect with North Shore Highway by Ferry at 9'hytecliff Start Next Year Creation of a new highway route from Vancouver to Powell I(iver giving access to many in- tervening points of population, and summer camps, was discuss- ed at a conference at Victoria '1'uesday, between FIon. N. S. Lougheed, minister of public works, and E. C. Carson, mem- ber of the Legislature of Lilloo- et. It was indicated that first work on this scheme would get under way early next year. Mr. Carson's proposal is that the government proceed as soon as possible to extend the North Shore Highway from EVhyteclifI'o Gibson's Landing or Hopkins Landing with a new ferry. This would give access from Vancou- ver to Pender Harbor, from which point or near it another ferry would be operated to Still- water. A road from Posvell Riv- er to Stillwater will be completed next spring. In this ivay the entire dist- ance from Vancouver to Poivell River would be spanned, creat- ing a fine scenic route and giv- ing the people of Powell River and other neighboring centres easy access to the city. In addi- tion, Alr. Carson explained, the route would be of great value to Vancouver people xvho have summer homes on the Coast from EVhytecliff north, and who would be able to reach them by motor in a relativelv short time. Mr. Carson asked Mr. Loug- heed to build a road from Squamish to Britannia to give Squamish farmers access into Britannia ivith their products. Ele said he expected this road to be built next year. Improvement of the Lytton- Lillooet road, to remove danger- ous curves near the Lytton end, was urged by the Lillooet mem- ber. He declared that while a large part of the travel move- ment would go to the interior over the new Spences Bridge cutoff, the route around Lillooet and the Marble Canyon or Pavil- ion illountain would always be popular because of its great beauty. Mr. Lougheed promised to consider this matter sympa- thetically.
