Both dayi were so miserably wet lhat an exertion of oite's mental faculties was necessary to lenli.'i- that tbe year had progress cd nu further Iiiun September. As a result uf this uuuvuidablc state of affairs, aud to some extent iti consc ipiciicc of tbe insufficient advertising po|icy adopted by tbo uianugomoi t, the attendance was uudcuiuhly poor, a fact lo be all the more deplured since, its a miscellaneous exhibition, the ninth annual efl'nri uf the society was distinctly better than any in precious year's. Eveu bad the weather been ideal, it cuu safely be surmised tbut a very inudequute prupurliuti of ll.e ut terested public would have filed iuto tbe exhibitiuu hull, for. lu tin' very date of the shuw, the city was kept clear uf all announcement placards, save those perched ut the eleventh hour uu Ibe street ears, The uuly rea suu fur a paiuful dwelling upuu tins particular aspect uf the event lies in Ihe fuct thai Mr. W.

WBST VANOOUVBB FBBBY BY LAW Ou Saturday, September ills!, tbe rulepuyers uf Ihe District Municipality of West Vancouver will be called upon tu vote on a bylaw to authority tho ralalitg by way of loan of tbe sum uf $11111,111111 for the purpose of the pur chase of additional shares of tbe capital stock of the Wost Vancouver Ferry ' cu in, .Limited. This bylaw has been framed in pur sitanee of tbe energetic policy relative to uuu.{,,.11,hi,in mailers which has characterised lhe administration of the present council, Since the ferry system pussed intu the Uuu.I., uf a company iu which the municipality uwus the controlling interest the service lias lieen greatly improved and amplified, while al the same time the passenger rates huve been considerably reduced iu favur of Ihe actual resident pupulaliuu. The rapid development of the trallic hus emphasised the necessity for still ,,,.,),, advancement, iu urder thut a service may be provided whicii will eu able the dislricl lu Iako advantage uf llie opportunities which present them selves for a steady and gratifying influx uf pupulutiun. Wilh this purpose iu view, it is the desire of the ferry cuinpany tu purchase u new and modern ferry boat, built expressly fur the Vancouver-West Van couver ruu.' The boat which the directors of lhe ferry company now have in luiiul would cost sumewhere in the neighborhood uf sixty thousand dullurs, would have a carrying capacity of up proximately two hundred, and would embody all Ihe provisions for safety, convenience and speed whieb expert murine architects uud the best ship builders could incorporate iu its design und construction, ll is likewise the wish uf the Hoard of Directors to procure suitable prup iiii uud lo establish up lu dale ferry terminals- at Wesl Vaueouver. ll is considered advisable to purcbaae such u pruperty ut us curly a date as pus sible, tu urder tu have the privilege uf u wide selection al thc comparatively moderate prices al whicii wuterfroiil properly can be purchased ut the pres eut lime. There are Iwu prime requisites which experience has shuwu lo uttuch tu gul iui|i tin- maximum benctils.fruni u ferry ii'iiiir from Vaiicuuver tu Wesl Vun "ouver, namely, lirsl lhal Ihc actual length of lhe waler run be made as short ns possible and thut Ibe ferry bout In' of such a nature us to cover tins run us ijiiickly auil as sufcly as pussiblc.

BACK TO CANADA" MOVEMENT One of lhe must significant signs of the times as lo the prugress aud pro* parity which the present era uf p-uwlh und development implies fur Canada is found in Ihe "Hack to Canada" move ment which has set iu emoug aalii* Canadians whu for a lunger ur shorter period have beeu resident iu thc i'nited Stales. There arc prububly hut very lew I'uuii,luiis comparatively who have any conception of the magnitude which this movemcul is assuming.

The meu selected lo take this trip went us guests of the Cuiiadian government npd upon Ihuir returu it is expected that they will join Ihe rauks of thc recruit ing agents fur the "Back lu Cunuda" movement. At the present time, lecturers in the employ of the Canadian government are going from city tu city in lhe New Englaud stales telling publicly uml privately, in seasuu and out uf sea son, tbe advantages of Canada. A special work is being dune aiming the Freuch i'una,liuu:, uf Ihe mill cities, mauy uf whom it is claimed are scarce ly able to muke a living under exist iug cuinlitiuns in the cities m whicii they now reside.
