REFUSES ROAD GRANT North Vancouver Council Ad- vised of Decision A letter was read at the North Vancouver City Council meeting last Monday night in which was given a definite refusal on the part of the provincial govern- ment to advance the city any money with which to repair its roads. The city claimed it had compensation coming through stoppage of the Pacific Great Eastern Railway service. Premier Tolmie enclosed a let- ter from Hon. Nels. Lougheed, minister of public works, in which were set forth reasons for refusal. The council said that the city made no request for grants und- er. the highways act, as the letter seemed to intimate. It wanted compensation. The council de- cided to acquaint the government with its views with the idea of opening up further negotiations. The Annual Masquerade Dance of the Cornwall Devon and Somerset Association on Satur- day evening was a wonderful success. The Grandview Masonic Hall was crowded with mem- bers and their friends, the ma- jority being in costumes, some being ver attractive and origin- al and demonstrating the whole- hearted support of all interested in this thriving Association. The Grand March was very spectacular and exhibited a splendid procession of masquer- ade& of various designs, the judges having a very delicate task in awarding the prizes, there being such talent shown in the "makeups." There were many surprises when the masks ~vere lifted and the real identity of the promerraders was known. The Masquerade prizes were aivarded to Mrs. B. Reed, Mrs. AV. Swank, Nrs. W. Moffatt, Mr. H. Browne, Nr. W. Stuckey, Mr. E. Russell, Dorothy Phillips and Jack Bridge, This whist drive was well at- tended and after a very close game resulted, Ladies 1st, Mrs. M. Hugh; ladies 2nd, Mrs. W.
