THB END VANCOUVER HAS MANY INDUBTBIES People who llnul. that Vancouver's industrial development ■" 'ar consist! mostly of nv. imii and jihiuing mills should take u look nf the False Crook factory district ami ihe uther factory sections thul huve s|irting up, says llic Vuncouver Saturday Sunset. Many nm,,km) chimneys mul muny chimney less factories, in which the "white coal" is Hie motive power, indicate thai Vancouver's industrial develop ment is keeping pace with her gcncTtlT expansion. Vancouver's greatest en terpriso, Eastern people say, is the selling of real estate. But tiie factory districts of Vancouver are hidden fruit: the tourist trallic and oven lu inu.it Vuncouver people. It is true Ihul III Vancouver factories and mills are like ly to be less apparent than in unother Canadian city, un account uf thc general employment uf electrical power here. A factory without u ;i.,,i,n., chimney is i.iiii,i uunl,ti. sive uiul may cusily be mistaken fur u warehouse, or for a building nut cun secrated tu any commercial purposi ul nil. Alnng the slum's uf Fulse I'reek, on built sides uf Hurrard Inlet, ami ulung Hie lines uf the iiileriirbiiu railways, there are inuny of these mills and factories which du uot smoke, but whose hum is nut apparent unless you .,,:..,.! quite close. Generally, uf course, their lettered sign boards It'll you whut they are Follow the waterfrontage of Ftijse I'reek ami you will lind a chain uf factories, each highly productive ami each employing u very satisfactory number uf workers.

More Industries. Tbo Progress Club, which is to htiv-e uu iuduatries committee, can dunum struto its usefulness by bringing in new industries. Sufficient activity ui this direction has never been shown. A vigorous campaign for now Indus tries is what Viiiiciiiiver has needed for a lung time. Vuneuuver is u hign ly suitable place for many iiinuiil'u uuin: industries to locate. Obeapur powor woultl help to bring large I'm lories here, There is plenty of wu ter power close to Vancouver. A greut deub of it hus been already tit irlupml.

The paving af Lonsdalo avonue Jisd ajso had the attention of the city solicitor, who muled that the second by law calling fnr paving overlapped thc first bylaw whicii called for macadamizing.
