Vancouver, Aug 2
Editor Advance -Times:
=Vancouver, B. C, is situated on a
rugged coast of the Pacific on a seen
is peninsula formed by the delta o
the Fraser river and promontories
jutting into the Gulf of Geoi-gia. It
is the commercial capital of this pro-
vince and third largest city, of the
Dominion. It is the northern ter-
minus of the Pacific, Highway, 1,800
miles in length, , also Western Ter-
minals of trite C N. R., C, P. R. and
Great Northern Railways, and claims
a population m the greater sense '344
thousand—a •cityy only forty-two years
old, built up in the lifetime of many
now living, . the harbor having 47
berths for ship of the largest size;
this being a .cosmopolitan city .we 'see
all classes 'of people consequently it
is hardly to be .expected that it will
• be a "City of God." I notice an
absence of beautiful places of wor
ship such as we have down East, but
should I say,. Mammon worship is the
main' thought, according to, geograph-
ical situation the place is designed to
i be a mighty city-provding of course,
that time goes on, which we scarcely
8 believe, according to Biblical pro-
phecy, however, thereare great evi-
dences of advancement on temporal
- limes, many newgarages to cater to
f the demands of the times as we are
nowmostly on wheels, here are a
great' many hotels catering to the
tourist trade which is becoming very
heavy, as the city probably has the
finest situatibn for drawing people
from the far ends of the earth for its
scenic beauty:
There are great mountains, canyons,
water trips, motorroads, bathing bea-
ches, tea rooms; walks and drives gal-
ore; I mention Grouse Mountain par-
ticularly, a motor road was built cir-
cling around this elevation of between
4 and 5 thousand feet, near the top
a'"chateau" or hotel invites you to
spend your'hartl-earned cash, they ad-
vertise the "eats" extensively, also
dances'. and in various ways try to
"get you"
The Grand and Capilino Canyons
are immense, here are two suspension
bridges, the one spanning the first
mentioned is nearly 450 feet above
