The Court was silent; the magistrate had ordered the usher to call the first prisoner. A man was put into the dock. "You are accused of stealing a chicken," said the magistrate solemnly. "Have you anything to say?" "Yes, your worship," said the prisoner. "I only took it for 0 lark." "A lark!'~napped the magis- trate. "No?resemblance whatso- ever--ten days." VANCOUVER CREOSOTING" i)t. Cosy LTD. !": NORTH VANCOUVER THE IVEST VAN NFWS PUBLIC SCHOOL CONCERT VERY SUCCESSFUI The Inglewood School auditori- um was crowded on Thursday evening the 18th instant, for the annual Christmas concert put on by Pauline Johnson and Holly- burn Schools. These concerts have always been well worth see- ing, and that on Thursday was no exception. There was more dancing this year, and every one of the items was particularly well done. The costumes were very pretty, snd the young participants showesl no hesitation at any time, nor did they make any mistakes. The several choruses by the children were well sung, snd a good tone was ma!stained throughout, the blending of the parts being excellent. Three plays figure on the pro gram, "Hiawatha," "Casey at the Bat," and "Robin Hood." The second named related to a country baseball team, and the young actors went through their parts like veteran baseball play- ers. "Robin Hood" was also very well done indeed for such young boys and girls, but "Hiawatha" in our opinion was the outstan&l- ing number of the evening. The costumes, including the facial get-up, and also the stage set- ting, were wonderfully natural. The most striking feature, how- ever was the way in which the whole cast seemed to have ab- sorbed the stoicism of the Indian, Particular mention should be made of the long speeches made by Douglas IVatt as Chief and Helena Clegg, both being de- livered without any hesitation and in the real Indian spirit. Attention should also be called to the playlets, "Little Leaves" and "the Brownies," by the younger scholars, which were charmingly done in a charming setting. To sum up, every item on the program showed that very con- siderable timeandeifort had been given to its preparation both by pupils and teachers, and the re- sults must have been as gratify- ing to them as to the large audi- ence who were present. NARROWS BRIDGE TO BE hIOVED TO SHALLOWS IN NEXT FEW DAYS Pacific Salvage Co. workers employed on the Second Nar- rows bridge span Monday jug- gled the mass of steel into an upright position. It is necessary to get the span on an even keel before it can be moved into the shallows to be lifted on barges and slipped onto the floating dry- dock at the Burrard plant. The span is now lying on its side in sixty feet of water, on the edge of the tide ilats about 0 quarter-mile west of Moodyville. It is well out of the traffic routes of the harbor. The teacher was angry when Wjnnie appeared at school a quarter of an hour late. "Why are you late 7" she asked sharply. "Please mi83, 'eplied the sin- ner, "it was late when I started from home." 'Then why didn't you start earlier?" "Please, miss, it was too late to start early." CLASSIFIED ADS The rale for IZuainad Adraaliaamcalc ic 2 aasm par wvrsL misimsm 26 assis.

Instead of bowing her head, however, she defended her- self with vigor "I was only repeatin', mum, what I 'sard from your own lips," she asserted. "Good heavens!" shrieked the mistress, "do you mean to say I told you my husband was in jail?" "Not in so many words," con- ceded Mrs. Turpin, "but I drew my own conclusions. You said you was going to give a coming out party in the autumn!" e GEO.

"It's that mischievous boy o. yours," cried the enranged wom- an, holding up a huge brick for the other's inspection. "He' been and thrown this through my window." A delighted look came over the fond mother's face. "Really! How interesting'" she remarked. "I wonder if you will let me have the brick?

"Now, Billy," said the school- mistress, unrolling a msp of Egypt, "what great river flows through this country?" Billy was a bright boy, snd he immediately answered. "The Nile, teacher," he re- replied. "Very good," praised the mis- tress. "And now can you tell me what are its tributaries?"
