THE WEST VAN NEWS THE BURiVIING BU9H By Subadar Sir Oliver Lodge is credited with saying that one af the next scientific discoveries will be of beings higher than man. That won't be sny discovery at all, for most of us know of men who Inake us thank God for dogs. And the worst of it is we can hardly publicly state these feBows are lower than dogs without getting up before the beak. Which is adding insult to injury. A tribe has been discovered in the interior of the Sahara who live in underground villages. Now, when occupied on a cold winter's day in trying to keep . the wind from permeating the rooms via the window frames and the outer doors, I have often pondered on the advantages of an underground dwelling. It might be on occasion 8 trifle stuffy, but that is preferable to a wind off the nearest glacier. As a matter of fact civilized man has ybt to devise anything so comfortable as the old cave of his forefathers. It was cool in the summer, warm in the winter and could only be burgled from the front end. In our modern houses one is liable to get 8 burg- lar in the back hair any old time. Of course, the cave had its smoke nuisance, but so has Vancouver. We are hard to satisfy. Most people throughout June were grousing away because they were getting inundated with rain. Metaphorically speaking, they sat down in their spare moments, on their haunches like wolves and howled for 8 spot of sun. The sunshine has come, lots of it, and they are gasping curses on the heat with their tongues hanging out. It's only another proof of the fact that, not only is it impossible to please all the people all the time, but that you can't please all of them at any time. That is probably the rea- son why governments some- times carry on as if there were no people. I note that Bernard Shaw has gone to Russia, where he 'hss been received with great glee. He is very fond of keeping in the spotlight, but why go to Russia when there are so many simpler ways of doing so in England? For instance, Bernard, why not walk down Piccadily arrayed in a topper and beach pyjamas, or go to the Tivoli dressed as an archbishop? What about shav- ing off the old beard and appear- ing without it? All these things you can do, Bernard, in perfect safety, and still keep the tongues wagging, but in Russia they may change their minds, and put the quietus for all time on YOUR tongue. And how dreadful that would hei qPOWER SUPPLIED TO TUNNEL UNDER FIRST NARROWS Electric power was made a- vailable this month to the gangs boring the new water-supply tunnel under the First Narrows and provision hss been made for a maximum load to meet the con- tractor's requirements. Officials of the light and pow- er department of the B. C. Elec- tric Railway Company report that the 34,000 volt circuit run- ning to Britannia Mines has been tapped at the Indian Reserve on the north shore and energy tak- en by a pole line to the scene of operations. The necessary trans- former equipment has ben in- stalled to step the current down to the proper voltage. Boring takes place simultane- ously on the Stanley Park side and electric power hss been pro- vided there by laying 8 submar- Ine cable across the Narrows, connected with the source of 8up- piy on the north side Settlers are flowing into the Pouce Coupe district. The population of B. C. sixty years ago was 40,000. Points for the Kitchen To relieve the smarting of a burn, dip It in water then sprinkle thickly with flour, so as to form a paste over it. This keeps out the sir and stops the smarting almost instantly. Put a teaspoonful of salt in each can of tomatoes as you seal them. This will insure their keeping. To remove fat from soup, dip a piece of clean tissue paper into the hot soup. The fat fiosting on the top will th$n be absorbed. This is much quicker and easier than skimming. In making Cake add one tea- spoonful of cornstarch to each cup of flour and you will always have light, fluffy cake. This is well worth trying. Before frying bacon cut off the rind, and dip each rasher in iiour, then fry or grill quickly. This prevents the fat from run- ning, and gives the bacon a bet- ter flavor. When baking apples fill the cores with honey and broken walnut meats. This makes a de- licious change from the sugat'illedcores. To poach eggs successfully, put a teaspoonful of vinegar in the water and keep the pan cov- ered. When jelly refuses to thicken put a grated carrot into a clean piece of cheese cloth and strain a few drops into the jelly pan. Then boil just a few seconds longer. Have your butcher slice the bacon thin, pack it in glass jars and seal tight. In this shape it will keep nicely until all used up, it is always ready for use, and there is no waste caused by mold forming on the outside. If your cream is too thin to whip add the unbeaten white of 8 fresh egg. You will have some excellent whipped cream. lfORLD CRLIIS Buy your Tkheix now for Wetiern Ccnsds' Grcsieti Exhibition I VANCOU VER AUGUST 22-29 /EVEN Xlodouc days cvcmmcti with oducutiouul fcxtuvcc cud thcinluu Outcr tciumcut cpcctudcc, rclcbcut- Iuu tho ckcicth cuuivovccvy of Bdtich folucubiu'c outcuucc iuto Coufctlcvctlou.

St. Stephen's New Bell Dedicated The church bell, recently 80- cured from New Westminster, was heard for the first time last Sunday giving its call to worship, a bell tower having been erected during the week by Mr, Brace- well and others. At the morning service the brief ceremony of dedication was held and the rec- tor in his sermon gave a history of bells and their uses, urging that whenever the bell is heard it should be thought of as a new witness in the community to God and 8 call to His worship snd service. The hours at which the bell will be rung on Sundays are: 7:55 a. m. -7:58 a.m.; 9:56 a.m. - 10 a.m.; 10:66 a.m - 11 a.m.; 11:10 a.m. - 11:13 a.m.; 6:55~ p,m. - 7 p. m.; 7:10 p. m. - 7:13p m.
