FERRIES Special Trip to Keat's Island SATURDAY, AUGUST 27th Leave West Vancouver 10 a.m. Leave Keats 6 p.m. Band Concert SCHOOLS'AND PRACTLSING HARD AT SCHOOL BAND CAMP The West Vancouver Schools Band Camp at Keats Island und- er the supervision of J. E, Con- don, assisted by T. E. W. Rus- sell, is proving a great success. There are flfty-two boys and girls in cainp and all are in the best of health and thoroughly enjoying themselves. Two re- hearsals, under the leadership of Mr. Jordan, are held each day and wonderful progress is being made in preparation for the con- tests at the Exhibition. The cooking arrangements are in the capable hands of Mrs. El- gar, Mrs. F. J. Patterson, Mrfz Dickinson, Mrs. Jordan and Mrs. Condon. Councillor Elgar paid a visit to the camp over the weekend and inspected the tents and cab- ins occupied by the members of the band, He complimented the boys on the tidiness of their tents particularly the "Happy Six" tent occupied by Tom Tim- brell, Dick Lester, Bill Harker, Bobbie Brshan, Russell Escott and Chris Jordan. He also ex- pressed his appreciation of the way the band is applying itself to their practices. The Band supplied the music at the morning and evening ser- vices on Sunday and gave a con- cert at Gilxson's Landing on hfonday evening. There are splendid facilities at the camp for swimming, tennis. baseball and other sports, all of which are being indulged in to the fullest extent, especially the swimining. A regatta will be held during the week including a water polo match, walking the greasy pole and other novelty events. The Band wish to ex- press their appreciation to the Reeve and Council for the use of No. 6 Ferry and also to in- vite all their friends to visit the camp on Saturday next. Tea and cofl'ee will be supplied for lunch and supper. Next Sunday after- noon a concert will be given on Ambkside Pier when the citi- zens of West Vancouver will be abk to judge if the camp has been worth while. Good support is expected both for the Satur- day trip and Sunday concert.

Heretofore there has been no transportation service whereby Canadian cargo for such countries as Chile, Co- lombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Pana- ma, Peru and Salvador could be handled direct from Canadian ports. This condition has been a handicap to the development of trade but the new arrange- ment brings it to an end and of- fers opportunity of increasing business. Under this arrange- ment the steamship lines enter- ing into it will work with Cana- dian National Steamships for the direct transportation of goods, with transhipment tak- ing place at Cristobal, on the Atlantic side of the Panama Ca- nal. The west coast of Mexico, as far north as the United States boundary, is also covered by the new plan. In the past, Canada has done some export business in fisher- ies products with different coun- tries in the territories affected by the arrangement now made, but the trade has not been on a very large scale. The improved shipping service may make it possible to expand the sales. KID REPORT ADVICE TO ABOLISH P. G. E. WILL NOT BE TAKEN Alarmed at the proposal of the Kidd business men's com- mittee that the operations of the Pacific Great Eastern Rail- way cease immediately and that the entire system be junked if it is not sold in nine months, in- terests with large investments in the P. G. E. country have been trying to find out whether such s scheme is likely to be adopted. It was learned definitely at the Legislative Buildings that no such proposal will be enter- tained by the present govern- ment for a moment. The com- mittee's report in this connec- tion is regarded by the govern- ment ss unthinkable. Settlers, ranchers and cattlemen along the line of the government rail- way, need not worry for the time being at least. The gov- ernment will not scrap the P. G. E. and there has never been any indication that the opposi- tion favors such s program.

There will also be staged on these same days the Canadian Professional Wrestling Championships, when picked mstmen will grapple for Dominion honors in a spectacu- lar series of skill and furious ac- tion. Throughout the entire Exhi- bition, a seven act Vaudeville program will be staged twice a day, featuring the Flying Floyds trapeze acrobats; Shorty Flemm the Clown; the Oslo Troupe of gymnasts; and the Johnston Saxotet te. Aug. 30 and 31 will be featur- ed by whippet races, a pastime which is sweeping into popular favor in the Old Country, and an intensely interesting sport. On September 1 the million dol- lar livestock parade will be held. Usually at the Exhibition, much interest centres around the live- stock, and this year's display promises to be a much better showing than ever before. The magnificent new buildings of the Exhibition will house 47 sec- tions of costly exhibits this year --displays of automobiles, man- ufacturing, forestry and miner- aLib fruit, poultry and eggs, honey, Indian Craft, fine arts, women's and children's work, etc.--portraying vividly the in- dustrial and agricultural devel- opment of British Columbia in every phase. Of course no Exhibition is complete without the Midway- the fascinating scene of breath- taking rides on the Giant Dipper snd Water-Chute... interesting games and shows.... the toe- tingling jingle of'he calliope .. the tempting aroma of'ot dogs snd coffee. There's lavish educational and entertainment spectacles to int- erest visitors of all ages and all tastes at the Exhibition Served Him Right "Why are you crying, Bobbie" "Teacher caned me for not know where the Pyrenees sre."

The race was held under ideal conditions, there being a smooth sea and very little tide or wind, and eight men and four girls were started by President L. C. Reid of the Swimming Club, who also acted as referee. A I uzzler A young fellow said to his chum: "I bought a pound's worth of penny stamps and sold them at ten for a shilling. What profit do you think I'e madel" "Twopence on each shilling. Three shillings snd fourpence in all," replied his chum. Wss he right? No! He wss wrong. His mate had gained twopence on every tenpence, not on every shilling; therefore he had gsLned four shillings.
