That is the way Lieutenant Malcolm in charge of the traffic,~uad in the city of Atlanta, looks at the question of down- town parking, as quoted in Ralph Smith's "In Crackerland" col- umn. In those words he hurls a verbal bomb which scatters all to bits the theories of those who claim that the autos which line downtown streets are a source nf potential business and profits to the stores and buildings in front of which the "dead" cars are reposing. "I recall one instance recent- ly," Lieutenant Malcolm added, "where I personally checked 15 cars in front of a store whose management objected to the en- forcement of a parking restric- tion. He insisted that it would injure his business so we check- ed the cars together, and not the owner or the occupant had been in the merchant's store that day. But their cars had been in front of the establishment for hours." And there again, Lieutenant Malcolm points to a condition which has much to do with keep- ing customers away from the stores and which adds greatly to the congestion of downtown streets.. Cars parked along the curb on busy downtown streets are mere "dead" space. They force other cars into the centre of the street, adding more haz- ards to the necessary dangers which always are present in s busy city and delaying you whether you are in an auto or on a street car. ILC. SCOTTISH COUNTRY DANCE SOCIETY, WEST VANCOUVER There is an idea on the part of some prospetive members that the above society is intend- ed for Scots or those of Scottish descent. This, however, is not the case. Any person is welcome to join, provided they do not de- lay too long in sending in their names. This is rendered neces- sary by the smallness of the hall, which renders it obligatory to limit the number of members. The parent society was form- ed in Scotland in November, 1923, the object being to prac- tice and preserve country dances as danced in Scotland, this not meaning necessarily that they are native to Scotland. The other objects of the parent society were to collect old books, mss., etc., illustrative of Scottish dances, and to public revised descriptions with music and dia- grams in simple form. Embod- ied with these were dances from England, Ireland, as well as I"rench, German and Dutch forms of dancing introduced in- to Scotland in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries and still beautiful. Among the prom- inent people who take a foremost place in this work are the Duch- ess of Atholl, Lady Inverclyde, Lord James Stuart Murray, Lord Glentanar and the Duke of Mont- rose. The West Vancouver branch of this society will hold a social evening on Saturday, October 3rd at 8 o'lock in the Legion iidemorial HalL All those inter- ested in the society are invited to attend.
