She attended the Vancouver School of Art in 1937-38, and received a merit certificate.

B.C. Vital Statistics on-line provides two dates for the birth of a Helen Mary Douglas in New Westminster in 1903 - August 3rd and 30th. There is a birth certificate dated August 30 attached to the latter reference, which is presumably correct.
