SUGAR REFINERY TO BUY 25,000 TONS OF ISLAND COAL That British Columbia indus- trial organizations are appre- ciating the value of assisting sister provincial industries is evidenced from the fact that the British Columbia Sugar Refin- ing Company Limited, has just concluded a contract for its an- nual requirement of approxi- mately 25,000 tons of Island coal This company is equipped to use either coal or oil for gener- ating the large amount of steam required in its sugar refining process, but when it was ex- plained that the purchase of 25,- 000 tons of coal per year pro- v i d e d approximately 25,000 working days for British Colum- bia miners, the company decided at once in favor of coal. It is a noteworthy fact that nearly 30,000 people depend di- rectly or indirectly on the Van- couver Island coal industry.

At the house of the oldest par- ishioner he assured the good housewife that the village would soon get a better man than he hsd been. "Deed, sir, I hae my doots," she said. "We'e hsd five in my time; everyone of them has been worse than the last." Mrs.T.E. Snelgrove Violin and Piano Pupils'uccesses in London Acsdeay, Trinity College and Toronto Conservatory.

THE WEST VAN NEWS THE BURNING BUSH By Subadar As a mere man I sm amazed st what the gentler sex put up with season after season at the hands of the arbiters of the lat- est fashions. So long as it ls the style they seem to be quite con- tent to put up with anything, be it beautiful or ugly. comfort. able or uncomfortable, healthy or unhealthy, Taking for ex- ample skirts, there has been the hideous and unsanitary long skirt, the hobble variety, which was uncomfortable and danger- ous, and the short skirt, which was both healthy and comfort- able besides havmg the advant- age of some claim to appearance. The average man like myself has been wearing on broad lines the same style for thirty years, and we have no intention of being stampeded into anything dras- tically new. A few sheiks do adorn themselves in absurd gar- ments, but the real sheik of the desert is the only variety who excites our admiration. Now that woman has freed herself from the rule of man by secur- ing the vote, she might give the question of obtaining her free- dom from the fashions s little attention, more particularly in the matter of beach pyjamas. I am shocked--and it takes a deal to shock me--at the rec- ent revelations in connection with the financial scandal in Winnipeg. Whoever is the gui!- ty party or parties, there are occasions when it seems impos- sible "to make the punishment fit the crime." The worst part of the whole sordid business is the alleged shortage in the clergy's superannuation fund. As a rule parsons and myself don't get along very well togeth- er, but as my friends frequently refer to me as "a limb of Satan," the fault is probably mine. Yet I have the most sincere admira- tion for many sky pilots, who, especially in the more remote settlements, are skimping them- selves on very small stipends in order to be a Godsend to the community. I can only trust that the law will allow the guilty party or parties in this instance to be given the lash, and, if they die under it, so much the better for the rest of us. A German at Hamburg has just won a world's record by sit- ting on the top of a pole for sixty days, beating the previous world's biggest lunatic by nine days. And I ask you, what kind of a civilization have we got, when people can sit around snd gawk at such a display7 Now, if it had been a greasy pole, one could understand it, but, as it is, it can only mean that the ob- ject of wrath in question is so near the monkey that the profes- sors should see whether at last they have not found in him their longed-for missing link. There used to be a man at an English university town who went by that name, because for thirty consecutive years he had been trying to pass the univer- sity matriculation exam. The other day in Vancouver I ssw a very large English bull- dog benignly smiling at a very small kitten who was standing ten feet away and exploding like a Mill's bomb. The mother cat watched these proceedings for a minute or so, and then, having decided that her offspring had had a lesson in facing the world, wiped the dog's nose, who de- parted at a more rapid rate than I hsd thought any bulldog could travel. The Incident made me think, because I hsd just been reading an article on whether the school should not be adjust- ed to the scholar, not the scholar to the school, Some of the Red Indiana used to adjust their young braves by hanging theni by a thong between two trees with the thong passed through the back behind the big muscles. Most of us mfdd[oeged persons usd to get adjusted at home and at school into the bargain. The point is, when the school is ad- justed to the scho4r, is the world to undergo chiropractic treatment on his behalf alsof Because, If not, it will be just too bsd--for the scholar. AIRS. CLARA IVI[ RON AN[) MISS HILDA IVII SON TO START FALL TERM Mrs. Clara Wilson and Miss Hilda Wilson. A.T.C.M., 2367 Marine Drive, have resumed teaching for the fall tenn. Pu- pils are received for piano and theory. There will be monthly playing classes for pupils at which the history of music and other subjects will be discussed also class lessons for beginners. [VEST VANCOUVER COMMUNITY I'LAYERS The West Vancouver Commu nity Players are workmg hard rehearsing for another play to be produced shortly under the auspices of the Duncan Lawsnn Chapter, I.O.D.E. This play is in the nature of a comedy, entitled, "A Luckv Break," by Zelda Sears and di- rected by Guy Desmond and seems likely to be as bi8 a suc- cess as any of their former ef forts. In addition to the original members some new ones have been added for this play, namely Mrs. H. B. Stevens, Phyllis Sherwood, Mrs. W. B. Clarke, Dorothy Gilham, Hattie Young, Constance Thomas and Tom Sherwood. The play will be staged at the Hollyburn Theatre on Tuesday and IVednesday, Sept. 27 and 28.
