Epplett has been appointâ€" ed coach and manager of the Timâ€" mins Junior Hockey team, and it is expected that under his capable manâ€" agement the team will soon be whipâ€" ped into shape, to try conclusions with North Bay in the exhibition engagâ€" ment next Monday evening. The new arena at Haileybury is exâ€" pected to be completed early in the new year. Tt is being built of brick, and is being erected on the former armouries site. The boys are showing up well, and the sextette that will carry the iblue and gold of the Poreupine Camp to victory this year will be picked from the youngsters who get into condition, and once in shape to play hockey, stay in condition. This is about the first year in junior circles in the Camp when there has been available such aclarge selection of prospective comers in the junior field, and with twentyâ€" five or thirty showing fair promise on the ice at a workâ€"out, those in charge of the Club feel that the man who keeps fit, and can rise to, and keep the standard the people of Timmins and district are going to require of their Junior team this year, is the man who is going ito ‘‘eatch‘‘ a place on â€"the sextette, which during 1926 is going to shed honour on this disâ€" trict, on Toronto ice, by carrying the Poreupine colours to victory. During the past few days the junior hockeyists of the town have been havâ€" ing a few practices, in an effort to get into condition before the opening of the hockey season. From the maâ€" terial available the aggregation to reâ€" present Timmins in the N. 0. H. A. Junior series will be chosen, and there is certainly lots of material this year. Prospects Look the Best for a Firstâ€" class Team This Season. About 25 or 30 Promising Players to Select From LOTS OF GOOD MATERML HERE FOR JUNIOR NAOGKEY The landfall grows, as it were, and stands smiling ~t us. Gliding smoothly along, one feels minute, ‘with Small islands pass and reefs so close on either hand that a golf ball thrown from the deck might waken the dormitory of lazy gulls. In the distance there develops like a smoke pall, an immense range of mountains, and it is sunrise over a calm sea steeped in the glories of color almost beyord imagination, while the air is so warm that the lightest of summer clothing is de he slips out of New York harbor and the Statue of Liberty fades into the wintry mists behind her. It is the good ship Montroyal of the Canadian Pacific Line on her first trip of the season to the West Indies and it is midwinter with all the harshness of that time of year apparent. Icy gusts and cold snow falling into the water where ice is floating. In every way the prospect is uninviting and the passengers are below decks in the warmth of wellâ€"lighted, gay salons and cabins. A little over twentyâ€"four, hours of sailing elapses, and what a change ! We are back in the good old summer time. From Winter‘s Bite To Summer‘s Glow Manilaâ€"Filipino tree hut near Guadalupe. TIMMINS, ONEARIO, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 17th., 1925. A heading in The Pembroke Standâ€" ard last week says:â€"‘‘Demand for Snuff is Fast Disappearing.‘‘ It may be in Pembroke but it seems to be still, as Hee. MceQuarrie says, ‘‘one of the common drinks‘‘ among the Finlanders in this district. Wilk Apart from the fact that every artist on the programme is Cornish, and so the evening is truly a ‘‘Cornâ€" ish Night,‘‘ comment on this proâ€" gramme seems unnecessary. The selectl(ms are specially appropmated for the season, and all the artists are of outstanding merit. Some of them have more than local fame. The nrogramme will undoubtedly be a genuine treat to all lovers of good music. There is interest and variety and excellence throughout. Here is the programme :â€"â€" March, ‘"‘Merry and Bright,""‘â€"by the Timmins Citizens‘ Band. _â€"Pianoforte solo, selected, by Mrs. When Mr. W. 8. Johns, who is dirâ€" ecting the preparations for the ‘‘Cornish Night‘‘ Band Concert, to be held in the Goldfelds Theatre after the church services on Sunday evenirg, Dec. 20th, was asked this week how arrangements were proâ€" gressing, his reply was:â€"*‘‘Well, I can show you the programme.‘‘ There can be no more conclusive reâ€" ply to the question, nor any clearer proof of the excellence of the concert to be given than the publication of the programme in full. Attractive Programme for "Cornish Night" Band Concert Carols, by Male Voices, to be Special Feature at Event at Goldfields Theatre on Sunday evening, Dec. 20th, after the Church Services. Many Talented Artists to Assist on Programme. Carol, ‘‘Lo, He Comes, an Infant Leaving New York on January 28 for the West Indies the Canadian Pacific Liner Montroyal makes fifteen ports of call before returning thirty days later. The Montroyal makes a second trip to the West Indies, taking in different ports, leaving New York March 1 and returning March 30. Shore excursions are aArâ€" ranged for ports where interesting sights may be taken in. Down grassy slopes by the northern shore where a sea of crystal blue cleanses a strip of shining sand, bathers swim for hours, unwilling to leave the pleasant warmth of the water for the slightly cooler outside air. To the northâ€"west where the mountain turbulence subsides, the serried ranks of the sugarâ€"cane are marâ€" shalled as far as the eye can see, and banana trees grow in the rich red loam. Ginger roots, the sproutâ€" ing pineapple, and tobacco are cultivated; but the genâ€" ial heat of the sun aiding and abetting native indol!â€" ence, breeds theft and petty larceny. â€" So sugar is this island‘s staple industry. Permission to view a sugarâ€" mill can be obtained. Nor should the experience be missed. The bundles of sugar cane, loaded with sap, are run up an endless sliding band, to be crushed in a mangle, the stems coming out in dry shreds, the rich juices flowing away to the circulators, large drum conâ€" tainers and copper kettles that boil it. Then vanes, revolving internally, whisk the juice at high velocity thus crystallizing it to the consistency seen in bowls at the breakfast table. A byâ€"product of the process, once thrown away, now as important as its parent inâ€" dustry, is the wellâ€"known West Indies rum. Band Concert at Goldfields Theatre after the church services on Sunday, Dec. 20th. It will be a special ‘‘Cornish Night,"‘ with special Cornâ€" ish music, Cornish singers and readâ€" ers, etc. Christmas carols will be featured. Solo, ‘‘Star of Bethlehem,‘‘ by Mr. A. Jenkin.

This will be accomplished by. means of a sleigh bus service to be inaugurated with the first good sleighing. Tickets have been printed covering transporâ€" tation to the new mining camp. Some time ago it was announced that freight would be taken in from Chemâ€" inis to ‘the camp by sleighs, Now this plan had been extended to inâ€" clude also a passenger service. It is understood that Mr. Walter Lyttle will operate the stage buses for the passenger service. The stages will be heated and made as comfortable as possible for the 27â€"mile drive. \_Many friends in this district of Mrs, Hood (formerly Miss Boyle of Timmins, where she was on the Holâ€" linger Stores staff for some years) will be interested in the following from the last issue of The Northern News:â€"‘‘Reports from.
