SALMON PACK MUCH AHEAD OF 1931 British Columbia's output of canned salmon this year is al- ready more than 316,000 cases greater than the total pack put up in the province in 1931. Last year's production 8- mounted in all to slightly more than 686,000 cases while early in October this season's pack had reached 1,000,208 cases. Total figures for 1932, of course, will be somewhat larger than this. Although total 1932 pack will show a large gain over last year It will still be considerably below the average annual production : for several years prior to 1931. Unsatisfactory conditions in world markets have led to cur- tailment of salmon cannery oper- ations since 1930. There has been no depletion of British Col- umbia salmon runs but, with markets dislocated, there has naturally been )essencd intensity in fishing and canning a)fort. Production of canned sockeye up to October 8 of this year was 276,200 cases, in round figures, or slightly less than the pack processed up to appriximately the same date of 1931. Steelhead output also fe)l oif 8 little, but annual steelhead pack ls never more than a couple of thousand cases or so. On the other hand the pack of chums, 269,800 cases was about 206,900 cases greater than 0 year ago, the output of cohoes (including bluebscks) showed 0 gain of more than 79.- 600 cases, snd there was an in- crease of 46,400 cases in the production of springs. The pack of pinks was nearly 13,900 larg- er than at the same date in 1931. DUsh'DARAVE I,AD)ES'HO)R'CONCERT IVEI I ATTENDED There was 8 very good attend- ance at the concert put on by the Dundarave Ladies'hoir in the Legion Memoria) Hall Tues- day evening, all the seats and benches being Sled. James Thorn, of Vancouver, the visiting artist, was heard in two groups of baritone solos, which were well received by the audience, who demanded an en- core number in each case. The choir gave a very good account of themselves in their three groups of choruses. The various parts were well balanced and the light and shade and dic- tion were excellent. Mrs. J. E. Durbin delighted her audience with three piano solos, and she was the recipient of 8 bouquet fol)owing her con- cluding number. Mrs. F. X. Hodgson was in splendid voice, and was heard to great advantage in two groups of songs. She was compelled to give an encore number at the conclusion of each group, her last encore being beautifully rendered with great feeling. She was also presented with 8 bou- quet, and just before the singing of the National Anthem made a brief speech in which she thank- ed the public for their support and explained just what her choir were trying to do. Mrs. Durbin acted as accomp- anist. GARDENING G. HUTr, rchitect GARDENS and By NINA Landscape A 0 &sole I L rd cool ~ u. oI C A cl cvcdcri Z.

If it is necessary to immediately place the bulb pots in 8 room where there is direct sunlight they should be protected with a screen of some sort to keep o)f a lot of the light. For the first few days or until the top growth makes a good start water spar- ingly, after that keep the soil damp at all times. Plenty of fresh warm air is very much to be desired. After the fiowers begin to open they may be kept in bloom over a longer period of time by moving them to a room where the temperature is lower and there is less direct sunlight. After the iiowers have withered up the bulb pots may be moved to a basement where there is some light. The foliage will keep on growing for some time and the bulbs will be In better shape. Then set them out in the garden in the spring where they will produce flowers the next spring in the usual way.

That is a difficult question to answer in terms of days or weeks. So much enters into the problem that one hesitates to set any specific period although general- ly speaking we would say that from six to eight weeks is a- bout the right length of time. Paper White narcissus, Roman hyacinths, crocuses and the ex- tra early tulips will in most cas- es be ready for bringing indoors in four to five weeks. The saf- est plan is to lift up a pot of each variety in four or five weeks'ime to see if top growth has started to any extent. If it has the pots may be taken in- doors. Quite frequently there will be no flowers on bulbs grown in- doors but usually this is caused by the bulbs being placed in dir- ect sunlight in the house after their removal from the bulb beds outside. I'lace the pots in a north window, if possible, until the flower shoots appear. A iperature of 40 to 60 degrees.ibout right.

FOOTBALL Whist Drive and Dance LEGI0N HAI.L Friday, Nov. 25th at 8 P.m. THE WEST VAN NEWS SCHOOLS THEN AND NOW By J. Porter It msy be worth while for one whose school memories lie well back in the last century to re- view the conditions which then existed. I hrst went to 8 cottage school in Ulster. I was able to read at four years old, and got a rize for fiuent reading of the ible six months later. That of course was my luck. The teacher was exceptionally capable within the range of the primary sub- jects. My father, too, co-operat- ed steadily, for he went over my lessons with me every night, and encouraged me to spell out the words on the shop sign-boards when he took me for a walk. When we moved ta Belfast, I was entered in a one-room school with five gradeth I was obliged after that to work largely alone, as my father had become 8 fore- man, though he still helped me in arithmetic. One lesson which he gave on square root was so painstaking that I never needed another. He had good judgment in buying books; and our bookcase held a collection which was well fitted to stimulate a boy's healthy ap- petite for information. He bought only a weekly newspa- per; and, although tolerant of fiction, he preferred not to spend money on it. He saw to it that I did not yield too far to my tend- ency to procrastination and the exercise of mr power of discov- ering somethmg more interest- ing than the lesson in hand. The latter power is largely granted indulgence in these days, on the plea that it is our duty to en- courage "self-expression." I should have had more success in life, however, if the reins had been held more tightly in my case. Someone has to pay for free indulgence in self-expres- sion; and it is not a pleasant thought in later life to recall the extent to which other people, equally entit)ed ta se)f-expres- sion, have had to sacrifice their own wishes and concentrate on the routine work which the fav- ored ones have left undone. If the habit of doing necessary but uncongenial things at once is not formed in the school years, it is either not learned at all, or only learned at 0 heavy cost in later life. When we moved to Cork, we had to walk one and a half miles to school, for there was no other way. I can still recall the pinch- ing which was necessary to keep us in boots during the winter months. Fortunately, the books which served me also served my juniors. The one-room boys'choolwhich I attended had flve classes and three teachers. There were no high schools; but we were taken through a sound course of English, arithmetic, Euclid, algebra, and elementary physics. We all paid school fees. Not even this school, which was one of the best in the city, would have compared as regards equip- ment with the poorest of our municipal schools. I cannot help thinking, however, when I com- pare the extent of the knowledge possessed by average boys then and now,that our modern young people have no room to boast. In one respect they were decid- edly ahead of the averagb boys of today,--they did not despise knowledge, and were ready to admit that they were themselves to blame if they left school with- out 8 proper education. The boys here are infected to 0 dis- appointing extent with a posi- tive contempt for knowledge. I cannot help attributing this in large measure to the injudicious remarks of many fathers. There was a respect for knowledge snd its possessors, even among the peasantry and the poorest city workers, which is disappointlng- ly scarce here. It seems to me that the one thing which wants to be stimu- lated is the parental sense of responsibility.

It is no hardship to 8 responsible parent to stay at home when social functions are held on nights when school tasks need to be done. Until these things are recognized, our schools wiil never reach anything like their full efficiency, no matter what equipment may be provided, or what qualifications the teachers may possess. That recognition is, or ought to be, the principal aim of "Education Week." GORDON ROBSON Barrister B Stnztttr WEST VANCOUVER- Ogict Nt. 1447, Mtrist Drive Phone Wtzt 402.
