Since its extension to West Bay from Altamont, we have been charged a straight five cent fare, from terminus to terminus. After this extension of run, a new run was operated on the Upper Levels with a new bus costing 36,600 and 8 straight. fare of five cents. This Upper Level fare was reduced later to 8 straight ticket of three cents. The mileage of the Upper Level run being one-tenth of 8 mile longer than the run from West Bay to boat with greater hills to climb, why the reduction of two cents I Up to April 1st, children from West Bay to Altamont were supplied with transportation to the Pauline and Hoflyburn schools, which now is refused snd in its place twelve tickets for twenty-five cents. Since the children have to journey from West Bsy to the above schools, as there are no schools West, this will work a hardship on parents during these times of falling revenues, as does the five cent fare to West Bay for adults. Is it not about time our whole bus system was looked into and equalized and extended farther West to bring in revenue which we do not now receive. This has been repeatedly taken up with Councils and no action taken. The writer would deem it a favor to hear other opinions on the subject. Yours truly, G. N. CAVE, West Bay. PLAY "KLEPTO51ANIA" )YELL PUT ON On Tuesday and Wednesday nights last the St. Stephen's A. Y.P.A. players produced the farce "Kleptomania," which was well attended both nights. An excellent performance, well worth anyone's time and money was given, and each individual portrayed his or her part to per- fection. The young people deserve every credit possible, as the en- tire play was produced without any outside assistance they hav- ing had to do their own coach- ing, make-up, and even make their own scenery. One could not mention 8 single name without mentioning them afi and anyone would be well ad- vised to go and see this perform- anc, which was as good or better than any other local perform- ance of this kind should it be presented here again.

THE WEST VAN NEWS THE BURNiliVG BUSH By Sobsdar The head of a very large mot- or truck company in the United States, if a newspaper report is correct, has just stated that North America will be the first to get back to normal conditions.'t may be so, but up to date the Old Country has 8 very big start which will take a lot of catching up, especially as Canada and the U.S. have not yet reached the starting barrier. Indeed, our cousins are still going back, and more than likely to take 8 finan- cial somersault when aU repar- ations are cancelled, as they will be before long. I note that Wall Street is becoming rather ner- vous over the Empire Economic Conference in Ottawa, as well they may be. for the New York financiers realize from the ex- perience of their own country just what may happen to them if a tariff wall is erected around the Empire. I can only hope that DeValera is not going to the conference with the ides of trying to throw 8 monkey wrench in the works, but his record is afi against him. There appears to be quite a discussion going on among Van- couverites for and against Brit- ish films. A number seem to ob- ject to any preference being given them over those from Hollywood, and I fancy these ob- jectors are mostly Americans living amongst us, who natural- ly, and I admire them for it, want to see plays of American life rather than any others. The general public unlike our prov- incial government do not appear to realize the value of films as propoganda. It certainly is not much good teachers trying to inculcate Canadian ideals in our school children if their efforts are to be largely neutralized by American films, which have done more than any other single agency to spread American ideals and ideas here and in other parts of the world. Again I admire the Americans for it, as I regret what fools they must think us to allow them "to put it over." I have seen very many American films and 0 number from British and European studios. In SU of them I have heard from time to time some actor whose words might have been Chinese for anything I could make out of them. Fur- ther, the acting of those, wheth- er American or otherwise, who had previously made a name on the legitimate stage, has been noticeably better than that of the regular film stars. Also I have never yet seen a British or European fifm whish in good taste and finish of production did not transcend the Hollywood productions. This difference, by the way, applies to the legiti- mate stage as welk Referring again to the lack of clear diction levelled against British fllmrh it is interesting to note that some of the greatest Hollywood stars are Englishmen, who speak with that "Oxford accent," which so many hate while not knowing what it is. According to a C.P. despatch the speaker of the Ottawa House ruled that the word "grunter" when applied by one member to another in debate, was "impolite and an exhibition of ignorance." Apparently the rest of the diat- ribe which included the epithets "a scowler, a scorner, aud sn interrupter, posing as a political uplifter," was quite parfiament- ary. I cannot agree with this ruling at afi. The whole string of names seems to be equaUy lacking in politeness, but any msn who knows enough about the English language to bom- bard another with such 8 deluge of abuse without actually swear. ing is certainly not ignorant. The word "grunier" Is peculiarly delicious. To csfi 8 man 8 pig without actuafiy saying so takes considerable thought, in fact. the offending member should join the army, where his talents would be appreciated.
