0001 I, . September 26, 1980. THE IVATFR SITUATION By l. Duncan Cyprc00 Creek WEST VANCOUVER SCOTTISH SOCIETY The ycgular meeting of the West Vancouver Scottish Society which was held at the Clachan on Friday the 19th September, took the form uf a auciai gather- ing and there wa6 a large attend- ance of members and friends. The usual ycpor(8 ws&v) read and the entcrtainmcnt commit- (os showed that some interest- i In the By-Iaw $115,000.00 have been provided 10 construct a new in(ake at Cypy066 Falls and a i ~ new adequate feeder main from that point lo the dfatributiun system in Cauifeilda, and also 10 devslup disiribuiion meina boih east aud west of CaulfOild, covering a strip of land from West Bay io Eagle Harbour and )inking up with the Nelson Creek waterworks which now Supply 4 ~ '&o entire popuiatinn of the 6)vca(criy end of the District. - This group of lands has been 'ery much rc(arded In its devel- op&pent through the lack of wat- er supply and in the writer'8 opinion can never develop to any Ivjex(en( until the said supply has [ ", been provided. At Arat giancc this might scorn ! m)9a large sum of money for the '." number of miles of mains pro- posed, bui not if one reflects 08 ~ihe fact that the country under //consideration Is nearly ali solid 'ock, whore water mains cost -, nearly (wicc as much as tbny do ' kk ', in more favorable conditions of'uii, and that there is heavy caring as well as bridges to be unsidcred, also that the task of installing the said number of :. miles of water main is as formid- able and costly an undertaking an could well be attempted by anyone. The pipe provided in ! Ib(6 proposal, with the exception of some small fran(iona) pieces , f )over bridges and 80 forth, is all ] )cas( iron of the best quality and ing mseuaga will be held m the near future. The musical program included songs by Mra. Watt and Mr. Lowden, aud Eleanor Campbell danced the Highland Iiing in 6 way that delighted the audience. Refreshmcats were served and the evening closed with a dance, No Iiad Names! The traveler wan on hia way east, but had gotten no further than the fever and ague district of a southern state. As the train jerked to a stop at one particu- Iariy desolate town, be put hi8 head out of the window and eall- cd 10 a native propped up 8- ga)88( the post: "Tell me, what do you call this damn, dried-up, dreary place!" '"I'hnt's near enough, 6(rang- er," waa the melancholy answer, 'just let it go at that." The only two who can live as cheaply as one, says the cynic, are a flea and a dog. g WEST VANCOUVEk '&YARD ABOI.ITION BY-LAW No. 462, 1930.

General It is evident uow that the Wat- erwork6 installed in 1928 cover- ing Eagle Harbour, Gieneagica and Whytcciiff region are the i)est investment these lands could have made; as they relieve the population of any anxiety regarding supply and as an in- 'tanco of what follows amongst others a home to the value of 812,000.00 is being constructed there. Also the fact of that end of the District showing 8 well I imlanccd development baa made it possible for a Utility Company to undertake construction of a- bout four miles of Electric Ufght transmission ia the same region. Without water the far Ond of tho District &vould never be favored by a private Corporation in this 7 It may aot be widely known that in 1928 West Vancouver m. stalled nine miles of water mains and for most places of similar population that would be a large undertaking but in this District iad it is only a fraction of our needs. On a rough estimate I have concluded that the losses which the citizens have suffered during 8) this year by having their lawns, gardens and shrubbery destroy- ed, would have amounted to 8 num equal to ur greater than the annual lixed charges on the pro- posed By-iaw. As 8 moana of supplying an adequate quantity of water of.- doub(ed purity I know ofi(hing better that iaxpaynra of (bo District can du than endorse this proposed By-law.
