IfSiSS i w vA'p-:'- Sonu* iMirson wrote to the proH.H to Hay the farm(,*rH are not content in today'.s world. Well! there's nothiriR new about that, as witness the very old story of the KiiRlish farmer, who, on 1̂ *- itiK couRTatulated by the squire .on his line crops, Rrumbled about , the cost of cutting them. But nobody was ever content anyhow in this old world. Everybody's scire on everything, and even the dogs' have a grouch on. 'The milliomiire's sore because he can't digest his food and the lkx>r man because he doesn't get enough to get indigestion, the . ownei' of a Packard is mtul a t not ,l>eing able to atford a Rolls Royce and the old T model owner because he can't afford anything beUer;rthe pedestrian who can't buy any oar eurses all' car own- era and get.s his own back from worth knowing; Between the' mjislers and the monitors a per- , son just cannoned into it all the tim«'. 'rhe best way to meet it wa.s to thumb your nose at all hiind. ,̂ tiiking care, of course, that nobody in authority caught you doing it. Taking it by and large, we were a cheerful lot of young devdls who could take it by aiuMarge. If most of them ai-ii like me; they have been tak ing it ever since. (MRDEN NOTES Pi'opagation: The work of prepai*ing st<x:k for another year is con.sidorably expedited when hoi-ders, frames and other re ceptacles and composts, are pre pared in advance. So far as it is practioiible, everything con nected with the propagation of plants shouTd lx? fresh and clean. That is, the loam, leaf-soil and .sand should be .so free from dis- oa.se;und other injurious^pests as it is'po.ssible to have them, and l ^ i l e most cuttings wni" foffrT roots, successfully in pure sand, n iS ic ipaJlty ; so"metime.< small harfs rented and, on other oc casions, the home.s of the veter ans themselves have Ixien utiliz ed for th a t pun>̂ >'̂ e. To over come these difficulties the vets, deterrhined they would help themselves to establish a {lerm- anent headquarters for then* activities and, by co-ojierative labor, have renovated a w<xxlen building in the real* of the Hay Block donated at a nominal figure. Along with donations of equipihent from West Vancou ver rrierohants and other com munity well-wisher.s, including a library of several hundred books, they are now off to a g(x>d start to help themselyevs and war vet erans on the North Shore in the solution of their common prob lems. The opening ceremonies wci*e jKirformed by A. U..Darlington, J.P.,.,Secretary of the Vancouver D.V.A. He stated it was ii great privilege for him to ofl'icially open the ' Well-equipped head quarters and felt that a new era was now being established in veterans', affairs in the progres- .sive WestVancouver municipal ity. Ex - servicemen required sanctuary and shelter where the problems of the di.sabled could be intelligently worked out and the new headquarters impresed him as adequately meeting that need. He thought the A.ssociation was fortunate in its executive officers who were qualified men and well acquainted with veterans' prob lems. 'He knew of few organiza- .tionf ̂ so well equipped in that respect. 'I^e initiative of the West Vancouver veterans in establish ing-their new home by co-opera tive labor among.st themselves was a good omen for the future in his opinion and an example that could well be copied by vet erans throughout the Dominion. The Council authorized a $10 reward sign to be placed adjacent to the Memorial Arch Park ow- , S e tv ic e .... SASH Â DOORŜ SHINGLES t PLYWOODS- ' LATH PAIKT„T IIE ^4S l - « r s s ?

PAINTING AND DECORATING -- ""^Estifiiate's'fre'e'." .̂ H. W'edley. West; u 818. - • - ' ̂ ' $ik ̂hy * If® Ir- ' 'fAS'f f , It *i W&M M i ' S i 'M A certain professor of E.xpcri-' rhental Psychology at one of ' Englaml's oldest universities recently.adv_ocated-. "the- sharp infliction of pain" for certain chosen case.s of crime when siKxikiiig'Ixifore the Chief Con- stahles'-t AssTklatjpn. He. further stated that "more, sheer non sense had been ' talked about punishment^ and discipline in i*econt yeai's than about most subjects." If he included politics among the subjects, I give up, and I doiPt care how high .the ladies raise both hands and keep thonv there at such ideas. You - know a professor of psychology ■mm IS supposed to be some piimp- kins. Why he can tell you off liiind the exact degree of "mental excitement in a man's brain when he proposes, the depth of depi'ession or the height of i-agtY th a t ja rs a w'omun when the plan hops off without proposing, as well as all about the reaction th a t h its a man when some other fellow lifts him on his boot, and stuff like that. Per sonally, I believe psyohologj' is all bunk. A t my school we never heai-d about ' psychology, but what; we didn't know about "sharp punishment" ' was not si?ite of rcix-*ated. a mixture of- three -parts-good-- loam, three parts of leaf-soil and ~one part of sand is to be prefer-- , red,. I t should be mixed thor oughly and, ivhen placed in pos ition, rhade very firm. A coating of sand , on the finished surface, to the depth of one-fourth-of-an- inch, will be found advantag'eous. There are quite a number of choice shrubs, includirig quite a number of the roses, which can be propagated successfully from cuttings a t this season,- either out-of-doors' or in frames. Frames are undoubtedly the best as they can be kept close and shaded when necessary for the first few weeks and, afterwai*ds, air can be adm itted and regulat ed by the lights; failmg suitable _ frames,, bell glasses or small hand-lights may be employed with equal success. In the case of choice shrubs that are difficult _Lo_. propagate by . cuttings, or where the necessar>" facilities are not available, such plants should b e , layered th a t is, of course, where the branchlets can be-brought into oopfewrtvvith the ground and pnepped s m . Even where th is is difficult, Khododen- drons. and other shrubs can be rooted successfully, by "notching and rnos^hg" "the one, year old shoots. To be successful, how ever, the movss must be kept jiioist constantly. Yet I have, on more than one occasion, qbsei-ved Yiinis" built in RHododerr- dron bushes, in to which the 7s'ore becaU.se m spite 01 re attempts he has- not yet l>een able to take"th"cr .seat out "of thlT letter carrier's pants, while all, hands rave about the bml weath er, taxes, all governments, the high cost of living, and, last but by no mean least, the news papers.
