(Review's Special Correspondence.) Royal Oak, June 25.—It is under- stood a jitney service is to run from here to Victoria beginning on Tueés- day. It will make three trips each way daily on Tuesday's, Thursdays and Saturdays, but, if well patron- ized, will extend its operations to in- elude the other days of the week. Mr. and Mrs. John Vance, from Winnipeg, and Mrs. G. J. Reid, trom New Westminster, are visiting at tne home of their nephew, Mr. John Car- ruthers. We notice a returned soldier is building on a plot of ground opposite the residence of Mr. Kinnaird that was formerly owned by Quick Bros. As we were standing on the road trying to make up our mind to go in and interview him we were nearly knocked down by a tractor loaded with lumber and stood back to make way. But no, the tractor passed by —also the lumber—and followed the trail up Black’s Hill where it had a hard time making the grade: Then it went away-up the old \West Road. So someone else must be building. Will find out later. The Church of St. Michaels’ and All Angels, also the front fence, are looking “‘braw and fine’ these days in a new coat of paint. The grounds in front of the rectory are undergo- ing much needed trimming and -cul- tivation. The Rector, Rey. C. J. Littler, hes recently started a Sunday School which is doing well. Mr. Louis Du Val has sold his bic house and five acres of land to Mr. Y. Thorne, who hails from Vernon. Mr. Du Val has moved in to the house lately occupied by his daughter, Mrs. Rankin. Mr. Whitehead has but a ney home on the land formerly owned by Mr. Grist. OBSERVATIONS FROM SAANICH. Dr. and Mrs. Plaskett left week on the steamship Governor a trip through California. While there the Doctor will yisit the ob- servatory at Mount Wilson, the glass of which will, when finished, be larger than the lens now in use in the Observatory on Little Saanicn. It will be some time before the Mount Wilson glass will be finished as those working on it are not very Satished with the outcome thus far. At present the eighty-three-incn lens in the Dominion Observatory is the largest in the -world. Come and see it any Saturday evening from 8 to 10. Mr. and Mrs. Harold Thompson have moyed out to their ranch on the old West Road for the summer months. This ranch is extensively Planted with cherries and straw- berries. Mrs. Thompson’s mother, Mrs. MM. Thompson, teacher in the Millington | Seo), Flagstaif District, Washing- cn State, is visiting her at present, aiso her brother Elswirth Thompson, late -sergant of the 91st Division U.S. Infantry. Sgt. Thomp- son went overseas to join in-the big fight a year ago, and though his term On active seryice was short, 1t was exceedingly lively, enough so to con- yince the young soldier of the -ad- vantages of civil life. A large party of friends and rela- tives to the number of sixteen visited Mr. and Mrs. William Barker - on LITTLE 1asi for 18° 1S Sunday. Mrs. B. C. Gale went over to Van- couver on Saturday to- meet her son, Gnr. Wm. Gale, who is . expected there this week=from the- Seotta. Gur. Gale went to Francs with» the 15th Ammunition Column - from Petawawa in May of 1915 We notice several young men mooning along the old West Road In the cool of the evening and were a2 bit- puzzled until we bethought our- selyes that some of our young ladies are home for the summer months, and we wondered if—well, we just wondered. Wo harm in wondering, is there? Mr J.ohn Reid, of Prospect Lake, left last week on a visit to friends in Scotland. Mr. Geoffrey Reid, late corporal in the C. E. F., reached home a wee= ago. Mr. Geoffrey, with nearly every young lad of this lake district, went to France in the summer of 1915. They have all returned now, but those who are sleeping where the poppies grow in Flanders fields. Among the latter was Pte. Jack Trickey whose wife and sevyen- ing experience at your disposal.

The little Jad is 2 bonnie boy. ; Miss Helen Cameron, nurse in training at St. Joseph's Hospital, spent Tuesday with her parents. The directors of the Saanich Agri-| cultural Society appointed two ladies of this vicinity to call on the citizens of Ward Five in order to interest them in the Ward exhibit of the com- ing fall fair. These women are busy all day so they began their itiner- ancy on Wednesday evening, com- mencing on the New West Road. In every case they met with a cordial reception and a promise of good ma- terial for the show. Incidentally, be- Sides interesting the people in the project on hand, they were enabled to see what the neighborhood is do- ing in the way of home gardening and house decoration. They were very much pleased at being shown over the fine residence af John Watt, the erection of which was made necessary by the destruction by fire of the old home last year. Although the outside of the building and the lay-out of the grounds is as yet in- complete, if one may judge by what is already done, when finished this will be one of the finest domiciles in this part of the municipality. The large garden looked especially well planted in long rows of various kinds of fruits and vegetables that stretch- ed from the house to the read. But judge of the surprise of these vyisit- ors when after travelling down a long hill and up the roughest, bumpiest grade one could find be- tween Sidney and Victoria they ar- rived at the home of Mr. Jack Dur- ant. E : : This beautiful spot in such a place was an eye-opener. Everything about the ranch was spick and span. Not a weed or spear of grass was to be found in the large well-kept gar- den which was laid off in beds, or in the walks between. Besides helpin with the garden, looking after her housework and the needs of herself, husband and a family of four chil- dren, Mrs. Durant fakes exclusive care of about one hundred rabbits. Mr. Durant’s place is well worth a visit. It would show people what can be done by work and perse- verance. Isn’t it a pity that that in- definite aggregation of worthy per- sons called “the Goyernment’’ does not offer a yearly prize for such well- kept places as that of Mr. Durant? In the near future these ladies will visit all the other citizens of | Ward Five. The Methodist Ministerial Associ- | ation of the Victoria District was | entertained at the Parsonage of the} Wilkinson Road Church last Tues- day. s Mr. Stork happened along to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Bob Smith a week ago and left behind him a present for three little boys in the shape of a baby sister. The little boys are very proud of her. PREPARING FOR FLOWER ohOW Annual Festival at Ganges Tonior- row; Popular Hospital Matron Given Farewell Reception. Correspondence. ) June 24—The many Mrs. W.

FOOTBALL TEAM GIVES DANCE Fulford Harbor Boys Raise Funds for New Uniforms Through Terpsichorean Pastime. (Review's Special Correspondence. ) South Salt Spring, June 24—— The Fulford football team being in need of a new outfit, gave a dance last Friday evening, the proceeds of which were for this purpose. The music, provided by Mrs . Maxwell, Mrs. Ruckle and Mr. King, was most enjoyable for dancing that has been heard in the school for a long time. The success of the dance 15 entirely due to the members of the team who made all arrangements between themselves, even to prepar- ing supper. After supper a few songs were sung by Miss M. Simister and Mr. George Stevens, and were much enjoyed ee those present. Dancing ended at 2am.,a very mod- est hour for thea valley. It is ex- pected that this will not be the last entertainmsnt for the foothe!ll team funds, for the team™“is now very popular, after the recent dance, and the brave way in which it takes up any challenge with an older and more experienced team. Jt must be re- membered that most of the members of the cinb are young, and, having had little experience in the game, are playing exceedingly well. Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Carley arrived |. on Monday evening to visit their parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. Carley. Miss B. Hall, who has been for the. last week visiting her sister, Mrs. T. Jackson, at Fulford, returned to her home at Dunean last Friday. Qn Saturday evening last a baby daughter arrived in Ganges for Mr. and Mrs. Dakin, of Fulford Harbor.

The company is not only anxious to acquire running rights, but willing to pay for them, It is not proposed to. attempt the handi- ing of the heavier freight, principnal- ly lumber, but to leave that entirely to the C. N. R. The members of the company saw an opportunity for their project due to the cessation cf the V. & S. They realized that if the C. N. R. undertook to give Sid- ney a railway service, it would be only over that portion of the V. & S. lying between the Saanich Indus- trial Seat and the Patricia Bay lins, and that all that territory lying along the balance of the V. & 5. track between the junction and Vic- toria would remain without service. Mr. Curtiss volunteered the in- formation that if his company is successful in securing running rights an aggressive advertising policy will be pursued with a view to securing a big tourist and summer resort business for the line.

Walton, of the lumber sawing concern stated to a Review reporter that while the new arrangement with the €. N.
