Another splendid garden plant ls the sman rue anemone (syn- desmon thalectrordes L.). I.lly of the Valley The Bly of the vaoey is a well known and popular garden flow- er. It produces racemes of dainty bell-shaped sweet scent- ed flowers in spring and ls adap- ted to this part of the country. It requires some shade and plen- ty of moisture. It will however, grow in sunny locations if the beds are well prepared and kept moist and a top dressing of manure given each year. It re- quires transplanting about every four years to prevent over- crowding. The plants do best if set out in late summer The buds should be placed about two inches be- low the surface. olth ROBRRT MOb)TOOM RRT ~nd CHARLOTTE OltRRNWOOD Anemone Many species of the windflow- ers or Anemones are native to North America. Some are suit- able for bed or border use while others are best in the rookery or for naturalizing In the woods. The season of bloom is from early spring until fafl, They pre- fer shady locutlons and in fact where the days become very warm it is essential that they be given at least partial shade. The Japanese Anemone (An- emone Japonica) is probably the best known in this section. They grow to a height of about flve feet and bloom in the fall having white, pink or rose col- ored flowers. Anemone Canadensis or as it ia frequently called (A pennsyl- vanica) is a native of North America, growing in the woods and meadows. It has white flow- ers and grows to a height of two feet. It is not so satisfactory for garden use as are some of the other varieties. The poppy anemone (anemone coronaria I ) blooms from early spring to early summer. It grows about a foot high and has white, pink, red and blue ~EST VAN MOTORS BHI Grunt Phone, IVcst 2681451 Marine Drive Eaatop Monday ond Tuaadoy Young Donoaan s K)d'ith RICHARD DIX ~ tni JACKIE COO)'ER Special blaiinco Monday at 2 pat INiDEI'ENDENT I.ABOR PARTY (Socialist) PUBLIC MEETING Canadian Imgian Hnfl Wednesday, March 30th, 8 p.m. Speaker--A ill. Stephen Subject "Dictatorships." Everyone welcome. K.W. SavoryCOM3IUNICATIONDear Mr. Editor: I have been vastly entertained and amused by the keen analy- tical criticism, lofty idealism and choice langunge with which "Sudabar" has been essaying to tickle the League of Nations in nearest every number of your valued paper that has some to hand for the past three months, The League of Nations is to him apparently what King Charles Head was to Mr. Dick. But the climax is reached in your hiarch 4th issue. I pass by his termin- ological inexactitude that Brit- ish pacifists were directly re- sponsible for the Great War last- ing four years instead of four months and refer to his cheap sneers at three of the present- day leaders of Christian life in England, "Dick" Sheppard, the beloved former vicar of St. Mar- tin's in the Fields, Maude Roy- den, outstanding woman preach- er and the Presbyterian, Her- bert Gray. One is reminded of the story of the man in the art gallery who was overheard crit- icising some of the masterpieces. "Sir,a said the attendant, "it is the visitors and not the pictures that are on trial here." The Burning Bush, reminiscent of a great religious experience and symbol of a venerable institu- tion, still full of vigorous life, is a curious title for a column that for downright cynicism is surely unrivalled in Canadian journal- ism. Why not head it with one of Subadar's favorite words and let it go at that--Twaddle. Now as you are 100% British and the British are always good sports, I'm sure that you will publish this. Yours very faithfuny, A. HARDING PRIEST. LEGION MASQUERADE DRAWS LARGE CROWD The annual masquerade put on by the Canadian Legion, West Vancouver branch, last Satur- day evening in the Inglewood Auditorium, was one of the most successful ever given in IVest Vancouver. A large number of guests attended, and with Bert Kool's orchestra supplying ex- ceflent music there was not a dull moment from start to finish. A number of novelties were in- troduced during the evening, adding considerably to the gai- ety of the occasion, and the play of lights on the dancers produc- ed very pretty color effects. Particular mention should be made of the decorations in charge of the W. A. to the Legion, who went to an endless amount of trouble to produce a toute ensemble that has never been surpassed at any dance given in the auditorium. Paper streamers in green and white were draped from au sides of the buflding up to the centre lights, while the wana were covered with shamrocks and other de- signs emblematic of St. Patrick' Day. Whfle there were not as many in fancy dress as in previ- ous years, many of the masquer- ade costumes were of such a uni- form excellence as to present quite a problem to the judges, who were Mrs. J. B. Leyland, Guy Desmond, and H. B. Stev- ens. Those chosen far the prizes were as foflows: Best dressed gentleman -- A. P. Kerley. Best dressed lady -- Mrs. Dudley Roberts. Best dressed couple -- Mrs. J. D. Donovan, Gordon Vance. Best comic gentleman -- Geo. Childs. Best comic lady -- Mrs A. J. Gleam.

PATRICK'S DAY SOCIAL VERY SUCCESSFUL The St. Patrick's Day Social under the auspices of St Anth- ony's Church, at the Legion Hall was a very successful aifair. Bridge and whist were played in the early evening, followed by vocal selections suitable to the day by Brother Bede, Mrs. Fenn, Mrs. Price, Miss Bedefl, Miss B. McDonald, Miss Vazza, Mr. Fourchalk, and Mr. O'Far- refl These were thoroughly en- joyed by the appreciative audi- ence, which included Reeve and Mrs. J. B. Leyland. The pastor, Father D. J. Carey in a short talk welcomed the guests alluding to this the 15th centenary of St. Patrick's land- ing in Ireland HARDING RETAINS NORTH SHORE TITI,E George Harding retained the amateur English billiards cham- pionship of the North Shore, and Wallace Cup, by defeating Sid Jenkins, 500-328 in the final before a big audience at the Elks'lub Friday night. C. A. I Payne refereed the contest at the conclusion of which G. H. Morden presented the championship trophy and announced that next season a handicap tournament will be staged as well as the competi- tion for the Wallace Cup. As both Harding and Jenkin have held the silverware, they have agreed not to compete for it next season. Both players were presented with individual troph- ies awarded by the turnament committee. Harding held the upper hand throughout the contest. In the first black of 250 points he ran up breaks of 28, 26, 20, 19 and 18, while Jenkin's best was a 14. At, the interval, Harding led 250-110. Jenkin's perform- ance in the flrst half of the con- test was disappointing, but in the second session he did better, turning in breaks of 25, 25, 38 and 22, while Harding's best was a 26 Jenkin experienced diifi- culty with long in-oifs and pots, while those phases of the game were Harding's strong points.
