In the absence of the premier, second reading was moved by Col. Nelson Spencer, Vancouver, who said that it was intended to relieve thy company from its obligations to give service on the section of the line between North Vancouver and EVhytecliff, on which the operating deficit had aggregated ~&247,000 since 1918. The deficit would grow heavier year by year, Col. Spencer said, and if operation were continued it would be necessary to spend $300,000 in replacement of bridg- es. It had been agreed to com- pensate AVest Vancouver by pay- ing over to the municipality a total sum of $105,000, he said. DO YOU INTEND TO BUILD THIS YEAR? GET OUR PLANS AND PRICES.

SERVICE (Continued from Page 1) 20 and 50 ride commutation tickets. For instance a 20ride com- mutation ticket from Ambleside to Horseshoe Bay works out at 19 cents per ride, from Ambleside to Caulfeild the rate is 9 ce»ts, from Ambleside to Dundarave the rate is 6 cents. The same class of ticket, 20 ride commutation between North Vancouver and Ambleside is 10 cents; North Vancouver and Dundarave 12 cents, North Vancouver and Caulfeild 18 cents, North Vancouver and Horseshoe Bay 2S cents. The 50 ride commutation ticket between North Vancouver and the following points works out as follows: Ambleside, S cents; Dundarave, 11 cents; Caulfeild, 17 cents; and Horseshoe Bay 27 cents. It is interesting to note that the official distances from North Vancouver to the different points are given as follows: Ambleside, 4 miles; Dundarave, 5.4 miles; Caulfeild, S.8 miles; Horseshoe Bay 13.6 miles; and AVhytecliff Park, 15.5 miles. A special rate is being a1vanged for school children. This ensures even better transportation facilities for resi- dents in the westerly part of the municipality than ever be- fore. For instance, the first bus will leave Caulfeild for North Vancouver each week day at 6.45 a. m. Between that time and 9 o'lock there will be six busses. Another one at 10 a. m. and then at 11.40 a. m., after which there will be a service prac- tically every half hour until 8-10 p. m. with three later busses the last leaving Caulfeild around midnight. From Horseshoe Bay east the schedule calls for four busses leaving at 7.45 a. m., 12.05 midday, 3.05 p. m. and 7.05 p. m. It does not look as though the people of AVest Vancouver are going to miss very greatly the cancellation of the P. G. E. trains. The foresight and acumen shown by Reeve Vinson and the councillors in making the arrangement they did is realised by the people generally. SCHOOL ESTDIATES APPROVED The school board presented to the council their estimates for the year 1929 amounting to $54,314.00. These estimates were approved. Hilda M. J. Joule wrote asking for the road at Rose Crescent to be put in shape. The matter was laid over for the estimates. The Horticultural and Agricul- tural Society wrote asking for a grant. The matter was laid over for the estimates. Sash, Doors and Interior Finish 1x4 E. G. Flooring, long lengths.......... $22.00 per M. Short V.
