BREEZES ' FROM -VANCOUVER,
Feb, 7, 1924.
As i sit looking out, of my dee
window this glorious- ' spring Sun-
day afternoon', half -vacantly •walelt-�,
ing the iecessaittostreem of motorists
and pedestrians passing the -house,
with the snow-cap0ed peaks of the
Coast Range within• full view, stand-
ing like sentinels grin but trusty,
and looking inspiringiy down upon
our fair young city, our 'mind • in-
voluntarily travels back to the
scenes ,of' our earlier years. Though
it is nearly twenty-three' years since
I left`my native nnty' of Huron ,be
be-
hind me, time has not' caused . any
break in the ties binding'me to the.
•old home and surroundings,
Just now I said "spring" for the
sitnple reason that we have seen no
winter weather virtually at all this
season so far. I have noticed ice
about el. inch 'thick on three or four
occasions but our greatest 'maximum
of frost- so far officially recorded
would not be ibeyond 2 or 3 degrees
(below freezing, Far.) ,at any time
during the last three months. This
circumstance, coupled with the fact
that no stow has fallen In Vancouver
this year, compels me to say -that I
would prefer Vancouver •climate to
that of Florida from what my friends
tell nte. Our annual precipitation is
from 50. to 56 inches—being several
inches less than that booming state.
not tniss
That
T t
my readers may Y
understand me and suppose that
people never get sick here, I must
hasten to disabuse their minds for in
sante respects it is quite as easy to
contract certain indispositions as
elsewhere. Especially is this true
trou-
bles.
catarrhal and lungou-
r
bles. Our air is much heavieh and
more humid than the attnosphere of
'the interior.
Speaking of Vancouver, we should
probably mention Greater Vancouver
-an area comprising Vancouver City
proper, of 125,000 people; North Van-'
couver, West Vancouver, Municipali-
ty of North Vancouver (all three lat-
ter being across the Burrard Inlet
on' North Shore); also South Van-
eouver (40,000), Point Grey (25,000)
and Burnaby—being three residential
suburbs of Vancouver City. Ui-
timately New Westminster (12 miles
• from Vancouver City) will most like-
ly be amalgamated with the neigh-
boring municipalities to form one
compact City of Greater Vancouver
and embracing 250,000 or about one-
half of the total population of Brit-
. isir Columbia. The question of un-
equal taxation is one of the deterring
factors in preventing, up to the pres-
ent moment, such an amalgamation
from being consummated.
In building operations withfa the
Greater Vancouver area, over $17,-
500,000 of buildings were erected dur-
ing 1925—including several hundred
of dwelling houses. Point Grey, the
residential suburb "Deluxe" of Van-
couver, excelled all other nutnieipali-
tie; of her class in Canada in vaine
of buildings erected, (1925). In this
morning's local paper appeared a cm
of the new $2.500,000 Georgia Hotel
to be erected in Vancouver this
summer, It will contain 300 rooms,
each with a lhath, and will stand op-
posite the Vancouver Court House
and the famous C. P. R. Hotel
Vancouver--otte of the largest and
most up-to-date hostelries on the con-
tinent.
More elevators are to be erected
not only on the North Shore but in
different adjoining municipalities;
the problem of providing more stor-
age space for wheat is being taken
up actively and aggressively. Prob-
ably 50,000,000 bushels of wheat from
Alberta and Saskatchewan points.
will have passed through Vancouver
funnel before the end of the season.
This shows a phenomenal growth in
wheat shipinents via ;Vancouver and
the Panama Canal since the first
experimental shipload was carried
just a very feu* years ago. The price
of wheat eitt the Vancouver market
however, appears to be much less
firm and steady .han the Eastern quo-
tations so that seems to prove rather
of a dampener to the Western route
movement. If our local buying and
shipments were absolutely outside
of control 'by interests on the Prairies
there would not be so much un-
certainty and hesitation on the part
of the Prairie titan with grain to sell.
Not wishing to monopolize too
much of your space, Mr. Editor, and
as I purpose' in the not distant future
to write further re some other at-
tractions surrounding Vancouver, and
sante forreer Huronites living at the
Coast, I shall now sign off at 10:00
POI„ Pacific Coast Time.

Ike February ineeting of the lW,
M. S. of Duff's United Church, Wal -
tun, was held at the home of Mrs.
Neal, There was a good atendance
in spite of the cold, there being about
thirty- five ladies present. Mrs. Fer-
guson read the Scripture lesson from
John 17:1-11. Mrs, Geo. Dickson
gave a talk on "Bible Teachings on
Prayer" and sheaved that although
there were many years between the
times the different books of the
Bible were written they all agree on
prayer. The Bible is full of
promises en prayer, and not one of
these has ever been broken. They
are not vague, but all clearly stated.
Man tries to minimize these prom-
ises, but Cod is only waiting to ful-
fil, and although Jesus. rests His
whole teachings on prayer, He never
once tells us to have faith in pray-
er, but to have faith in God. Mrs.
Reid spoke principally on humility,
showing that none can truly pray,
but those who have a child's heart
of trust, and we as Christians must
learn to tap the great reservoir of.
God's power through prayer. Pray-
er is to -day and always has been,
the mightiest force in the world, and
through prayer a sure panacea can
