dance will continue in the new year g hockley manager u nmaviiibtbhimbfflbmibjiiiib am mm mmmwmm as we see it by j a strang the day following that upon which jatan declared war upon the united states wo noticed quite a nice sized advertisement in the globe and mail tnvlttnytbderb to escape winter come to the coast of british oolumbla oi course arrangements for the advertisement had been made in advance and with no nought off war on the pacific for somo tune at least however we wondered if any body would be thinking ol going to the pacific coast to spend this winter there somehow we are unable to think of war as being corfliccted with the pacific coast the scenery out there is beyond description and u think of war and of blackouts and of bombing as may be all going on out there is difficult to realise the canadian cities on the coast are of course vancouver victoria nanalmo and prince rupert which lies away to the north as compared to the other three greater vancouver is made up of vancouver proper wes4- vancouver north vancouver and south vancouver they are all con nee ted by bridges and line highways and it may give you an idea of the coast line and its many inlets when wc mtntlon that the coast line of greater vancouver extends some ninety miles in length the best view of vancouver is obtained from the watci after one has left the city by boat looking back on vancouver you gel a good idea of he size and with the background climbing the moun tains the city cotnee down to tha waters edge at sea level and the city stilus to have plenty of trees scatter ed thiotthout its length and breadth it lb a smart hurtling city and we do hone thai it escapes being bombed the city of victoria lies at the sou thern tip of v incouvtr island and un like vancouvn victoria h a sleepy quit t city just to give you an idea of iu quietness after hix in the even ing ou would notice the youngsters playing ball on the main corner of the city the corner that would cor respond to that of king and yonge in ioronio business seems to be quiet with nobody in any hurry the cit has many large residences with huge grounds surro aided in many cases vith hollj trcts wt have a relative living in victoria and wc could lie on hit co ich in her den and watch tiie liners coming in from australia and from uu orient she had huge windows in the rear of the house facing the water and at that time it was a most peaceful scene there are many points of interest that are worth visiting around vic toila esquimau it and bucharts oar dens being among them another re lative is a

they wouldnt be just as safe in scotland nanalmo is on the east coast vancouver inland directly west from vancouver it 1a much smaller than the other two cities mentioned and is noted for its huge lumber mills also coal mining the coal is mined under lhe water the miners going out to a small island off the main island and going down to the mines from there ilio american cities on the pad fie coast in that section of the unit id stalc would be bcllingham ever- t tt staltli taooma and olympla this latur city u the iapltol of the state of washington of these cities wo thought smitle the smartest city of them all while tinst cluis are real ly not situated right out on the pad fie coast ytt they art on puget sound which is of course just off uie ocean ludf our reason for attempting to des- trltx uioee pacific coast cltlis is that tiny art in liu limelight right now with their blackouts and their foar of being bombed we do hope that thr ull escape bombing they are all located on prominent locations and wo lid bo difficult to protect ne would think most of uum are built on hilly ground and with ah eye for land scaping and bombs could undo all that in a short time perhaps ws might have mentioned that victoria is not really located right on the shore of the ocean either it is situated on the strait of juan do fuca and vancouver and nanalmo on georgia strait while these locations might be an advantage for protection from torpedoes yet they wouldn t mean a thing by w ay of protection from night bombing one would think that by 1m1 some other way would have been discovered to settle disputes than by the bombing of such attractive dtles v v v just in case next weeks herald lont out before christmas we want to take this opportunity to wish the editor and staff
