Overhead cranes are also to  be erected in all the shops as part of  the plant, to .facilitate the handling  of machinery and heavy articles.  Architects Gardiner & Mercer, 827  Birks building, have been commissioned to prepare the ' plans and supervise the construction.

CRUSHED ROCK - SAND - GRAVEL  Ail KinJs of Building Material  LOCAL  FIRM  TO  BUILD  COSTLY   ENGINEERING  PLANT ON COAL HARBOR  I     One of tlie first of a number of local  ; firms  who  are -plaining  to  cope  with  j after-the-war  rush  of business  is  the  j Mainland       Engineering       Company,  j which has made preparations to move  from its preseut quarters at 422 Railway street  to a  new location  at the  | westen end of Georgia street, fronting  | on   Coal    Harbor.      Before   the   plant  i proper  can   be  erected   there  will  be  considerable  improvements   necessary  to  the site  in  the  way  of piling' and  filling in.    Work on this is to be commenced at once so as to get the necessary  foundations  prepared  for  trie  buildings that will comprise the plant  proper.     When   the   dredging,   piling  and   filling  in   is  completed,   it   is   intended   to   erect   the   1'olowlng   buildings:     Two-story  pattern  shop, ;10  by  CO;  boiler and blacksmith shop, '<■[ by  125;    foundry,   Uu    by    hiO';    muctune  shop, GO by 100.

Kirk, finance chairman, that the coun-  J cil was acting without precedent in the  'matter, the city council at its meeting  on Monday voted the sum of $235,430  for urgently needed road and lane improvements in various portions of the  city.    This    appropriation,    as     Aid.  Kirk   pointed   out,   was   voted   before  the  estimates   were   passed,  and   was  over $ 10,000 in  excess of the original  emergency   appropriation   of    $25,000  which had been placed at the disposal  of the city engineer pending the compilation of the estimates.  Engineer Fellowes, acting on instructions from the board of works,  submitted a list of 23' items of road  and lane repairs, aggregating just a  trifle over the $25,000, which was  passed without question. It was over  the two supplementary items of urgently needed work which he submitted that all the talk was spilled  and precedents quoted. One of these  supplementary items which the engi-  strongly   recommended   was   the  Structural Steel For Fve/y Purpose  — :—V*^      — —  BEAMS, CHANNELS, AIT<}X.ES, PXkATES, TEES, COXTTMNS  COMPLETELY EQUIPPED  rABRICATING  SHOPS  CANADIAN NORTHWEST STEEL COT, Ltd.

The Iron Age says—With operations  not.quite as good as a week ago, it  is   to   be   expected   that   reports    are  numerous of plant shutdowns.    A surplus of labor has already become apparent  at steel works, with offers to  work   at   lower     than   existing  wage'-  schedules.

Ownersof Tug "CLIVE"  General  Towing  324 Front St. New Westminster  Telephone 1015,  Agent Williams, the city council lias  decided to carry out to completion the  regrading of the  streets  abutting on  the deep cut on Clark Drive, between  Broadway east and  the Great Northern railway.    The cost of tlie regarding of these abutting streets ;and the  damages   to  property  involved   is  estimated   to  amount  to   $17,000.     The  alternative which the city faces is to  buy  the   property  involved,  but  that  would  Cost at least  ?50,000, even at  present- prevailing    prices;  ..so    me  council chose the cheaper alternative.  j    Mayor  Gale  also   pointed   out   that  J the carrying out of the regrading of  ! the   abutting   streets   would   only  be  j keeping   faith   with   a   promise   given  | by the city when the grading of Clark  Drive was commenced at the. 13-foot  'cut put in there some five years ago.  j The mayor also stated that theamount  of the  award in the arbitration  proceedings  now  pending  in  connection  with the Clark Drive claims .'also impended   to   a  considerable   extent  on  the city keeping its original promise  to complete the regrading of the abutting   streets.     He    thought   visi    was  cheaper to spend money in regrading  than in settling damages.        -,  EDITOR  HAS TRIALS     ,  Most any man can be an editor, says  the town knocker.  All the editor has to do Is to sit at  a desk six days a week and "edit"  such stuff as this:  Mrs. Jones of Cactus creek let a  can opener slip last week and cut herself in the pantry.  Joe Doe climbed on the roof of his  house last week looking for'a leak  and fell, striking himself on the back  porch.  While Harold Green was escorting  Miss Violet Wise from the church social last Saturday night a savage dog  attacked them and bit Mr, Green on  the public square.
