CORRESPONDENCE ZI We have been requested to publish the letter given below, the same being a copy of a let- ter recently sent to the reeve and council. (Copy) The Reeve and Council. Gentlemen:--It hss geen re- ported to me that on several oc- casions when recipients of Re- lief have asked for their vouch- ers to be addressed to "Smith's Grocery" they have been in- formed that this was not in order as it was a CHAIN STORE I wish to point out that this is entirely erroneous. "Red JI White" is a group of Independent Grocers, pooling their buying with the object of reducing the cost of distribution and passing on the saving thus made to the consumer. The Council are in a position to know that I own and operate personally my two stores, and that I contribute about 3250.00 yearly to the Municipal revenue. Every dollar I have is invested in West Vancouver, and what measure of success I have had hss been used to improve the shopping facilities of the Dis- trict. Under the circumstances any statement implying that oSmith's Grocery" is not entitled to of- licial recognition and local pat- ronage is unfair and misleading. If there has been a misunder- standing I feel confident che Council will have same corre t- ed. Yours faithfully, A. HARVEY SMITH.

Any members having articles of sewing, etc., are requested Io turn them in st this timiL Real Estate Finance and Insurance uloie on Breeding Fried Things The reason many fried things have a tlat taste. though the mixture may be highly seasoned is that the seasoning of the bread crumbs has been neglect- ed. Try mixing the bread crumbs with salt, pepper, and if des(Iud, a drop or two of any de- sired seasoning before molding. For frying or covering the tops of entrees, use bread crumbs, as they have less of a sat taste. Announcement is made by the B. C.
