BANK   BUYS SITE;   PLANS  . ,   NEW  OFFICE  BUILDING  By a deal, put through last week,  the Merchants Bank of Canada becomes the owner of a valuable site  on Granville Street,, located just south  I of Robson Street, and adjoining the  Burns' meat market. ' According to  Mr. A. C. Fraser, B. C. Superintendent  for the Merchants bank, the property  was purchased to provide a new  branch in that section of the city for  the Merchants Bank. The site is at  present occupied by Calladine's grocery and the Vancouver Hardware Co.,  and as soon as the leases to these  firms expire next spring, the frame  buildings at present on the property  will be torn down to make room for  a thoroughly modern and up-to-date  office building in the general style of  the bank's .other buildings in this  city.   ,  SMALL   BORROWINGS  HELP   MAKE   LOAN   BIG  Everybody's   Bit   of   Help   Needed   to  Assure Success.        ,  When a man is only able to'buy two  or three hundred dollars wor.th of Victory Bonds he is liable to say that  what he is doing cannot help much.  But it is just the subscriptions of the  people who give under a thousand  dollars 'to Victory Loans that make  these loans a success.  If every subscriber were to say to  himself, "I'll double last year's subscription" then this Victory L<oan. 1919  would be a wonder.  Ninety per cent, of the subscriptions  to last year's loan were for amounts  of $500 and under. That figure, ninety per cent, shows where the money  -■omes from. It comes from the average man and the average woman.  These "average" folks have considerable responsibility on their shoulders  *»        -   "  these days..

But of late, owing to the constantly increasing number of-privately-  owned cars and the general increase  in business, things have become almost as bad as ever.  Many schemes and suggestions have  been advanced as offering a possible  solution of this state of affairs. These  suggestions range all the way from  proposals . to "shavfng off" the buildings on Hastings and Granville streets  and other congested cross streets to  eliminating car tracks and taking the  street cars off these two badly con-  ested streets. One> local engineer has  proposed that the pavement space al  all down-town street corners.be widened by requiring ardades to be huilt  in the abutting* buildings. The cost  of this, he believes, should be assessed against the city as a whole as'af-  '■ fording a public, benefit. '  Perhaps such a scheme, if seriously  considered,   would   find   considerable  favor, but as time passes it is becoming evident that such municipal evils  as traffic congestion and lack of -suitable   and     architecturally     attractive  public buildings must in the end come  through   the   adoption  of   a  practical  civic   centre   plan.     Public   sentiment  in favor of such treatment to the city s  sorely exposed and widely advertised  municipal deficiencies is rapidly crys-  Pt.
