THE KIND AMENTION OF T. N. 0. 18 REguESTED B tter Accommodation Could Be Givâ€" en the Public at Porcupine> Station. Komplaint has been made recently B tive to the opportunity being misâ€" sed by the T. N.0. Railway to give better service to the public using Golden City Afor pienic and summer resort purposes. Un Sunday a group of passengers, chiefly women and children, were approaching the station :g.cake shelter from the sun when the or was closed and they were inâ€" formed that they would not be allowâ€" ed the use of the station until twenty minutes before train time. If the T. N.O. Railway has any regulations to this effect, the railway should ge out its ~biggest engines and run through and over such â€" regulations. The T. N.O. is, or should be, the People‘s Railway, and ready to acâ€" commodaté the public in any way at any time, especially if it does not cost anything extra. _ The Advance belâ€" lieves that Chairman Lee and the other Commissioners are desirous of giving the very limit of service to the public. They have at least always shown such a disposition. _ In this cease there does not seem to be any reason why the people should not have the benefit of the use of the railway station.~ Why limit the use of the â€" station to *‘twenty minutesl before train time?"‘ People at (Golâ€" den City, and especially women and children, find the use of the station of much advantage. It is a shelter from the sun and rain while waiting ‘for trains. ~Women and children esâ€" pecially <do not care to take any chances about missing a train and so are not. always able to arrange to reach the station ‘"‘twenty minutes before train time.‘‘ â€"â€" Accordingly it would be an accomodation to have the station open for use. It was built for use . Is there any valid reaâ€" son why it should not be open for the convenience of the public? .0.......0000.....‘. -nooroopoouoopoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooozo o? w y s * .*, .....’.0...00......““1441441- .»0’00000;.00 000‘."0.00‘.0.’0‘".00.0’00:0’00:0000000000'00 0000'00000’00000:0000000000000000000000'00000000.

Their record for reâ€" turn engagements is probably exceedâ€" ed by no duo and their visit to your town will mark an advanced step in Chautauqua entertainment. On account of the Rodeo and Stamâ€" pede being held here this year, a great many in town are interested in the success of the feature at Cobalt. "Wonder how the Rodeo made out at ‘obalt ?2"‘ is a comnfon question. For the information of all interested the followinz from The Northern News, of Cobalt, may be given as the report most likely to be authentic and inâ€" formative: ‘The stampede and rodeo, which stampede and rodeo, which performed here on Tuesday and Wedâ€" nesday afternoons and evenings, will remain over in Cobalt until toâ€"morâ€" row, when a further exhibition will be given in the afternoon. The Kiâ€" wanis Club have taken charge of the arrangement and its officers promise a good time and an interesting proâ€" cramme. It was unfortunate for the success of the earlier performances that the weather proved so inclement. Tuesday afternoon gave the show a eood sendâ€"off and there was a splenâ€" did turnâ€"out, but the evening was largely spoiled by a breakdown in the weather, heavy rain falling.

One, man who witnessed the Calgary stamâ€"‘ pede of 1912 declared the riding did not excel that shown here this week and the visitors showed a remarkable: skill in handling the various tm'ns.’ Each day, before the afternoon formance, a parade was held, headed by Mayor Armstrong on horseback.| and escorted by bands and decorated | cars. â€" Tomorrow the winner of the} horse on which tickets have been sold| will be announced..

Last Friday evening members of || the Timmins Citizens‘ Band were busy |â€" putting a second coat of paint on the | new band stand. They worked until} late and awere naturally proud of the fine new stand and the artistic job of painting they were doing. . Un Saturâ€" day, however, when they gathered | agzain to complete the painting, they| found that some mean type of haltâ€" idiot had splattered the green paint with the serapings of one of the used of white paint, as well asâ€"markâ€" ing letters on the _ It meant| extra hours of labour to take out the senseless markings. Why anyone should play a trick of this sort passes understanding. It would beâ€" thought that anyone old enought to make letâ€" ters would know better than to try such wanton injury. The fact that some of the letters were up high on the stand suggests that it was not small boys who did_.this mean wm'k.]’ The new band stand is town proâ€" perty; it is a band stand that is a credit to the town and to all conâ€" cerned. Why should anyone attempt to deface or injure it? There is alâ€" together too much vandalism commitâ€" ted in town. Private and public proâ€" perty is destroyed or injured without sense or reason. An example, apparâ€" ently, will have to be made of some of those committing these senseless acts. Probably a term of a year in jail for some of the halfâ€"wits senseâ€" lessly causing damage and destruction would put some fear in the minds of those who evidently have no sense or decencey. _ Effort is being made at present to discover those guilty of deâ€" facing the band stand and if the necessary â€" information is secured prosecution in court will follow. c Laura Becoro Canodies These candies arrive every Thursday.
