Reading new#paper accounts of the local girl who heard for the first time in 22 years over the radio last week, at the home of H. J. Metcalfe, Mr. Bennett went to the Metcalfe home and made it known that he deâ€" sired to try the same test. Immediâ€" ately he adjusted the head phones he heard the music broadcast from Station CKYâ€"the first time in his life that sound had penetrated to his brain. The announcer‘s voice,â€" came through very distinct. He preferred the orchestra music to vocal selecâ€" tions, »complaining that the soprano singing was *‘too loud."‘ When the concert was over and the Here is a despatch sent out from Winnipeg last week. ~It shows that the newspapermen who writes the last story has the best chance. The despatch «~says:â€"‘‘*Deaf and dumb since birth, J. A. Bennett, aged 42, of Winnipeg, "‘listened in‘" ito a radio concert broadcast by the local station last night. NEWSPAPERMEN ARE NOT FORCED TO TELL TRUTH ‘‘A hopeful and significant feature of the situation is the very large exâ€" tent of territory awaiting the coming of the prospector. The preâ€"Cambrian shield covers the larger part of Northâ€" ern and Northwestern Ontario. It is the most prolific metalâ€"bearing formâ€" ation in North America. Why should we not expect it to yield other Sudâ€" burys, other Cobalts and other Poreuâ€" pines and Kirkland Lakes?‘" ‘‘There are other branches of minâ€" ing than those for metals, and the list of nonâ€"metallie substances proâ€" duced in Ontario is both long and varied. It includes feldspar, tale, salt, gypsum, mica, iron pyrites, naâ€" tural gas and other substances, all of which provide the basis for indtusâ€" tries of local importance. The quarâ€" ries, too, supply building stone, granâ€" ite, trap and limestone, the last named not only for brilding, but also for making lime and cement. The total _ production of _ nonâ€"metallie substances is about $24,000,000 per annum. in value, ‘‘Following the Poreupine area, gold was found in paying quantities at Kirkland Lake. Here a group of five or six mines has been established, the ore on the whole being riche~ than that of Poreupine. Production began in 1913, when the output was $67,759. In 1925 it was over $5,000,â€" 000. Figures show that the gold outâ€" put of this Province has now surâ€" passed in value that of the famous Yukon district, which so largely fillâ€" ed the public mind some quarter of a century ago. There is this difference, however. The Yukon field was an alluvial one, quickly exhausted; in Ontario the mines recover the gold from ledes in the solid rock, which are proving to extend to great depths and carry their gold content with them. At the Mcelntyre mine, for instance, a shaft is in process of conâ€" struction with an objective of 4,000 feet, and at Kirkland Lake, a shaft sunk from 1,000 feet to 2,000 feet struck fine ore in large quantity. In other words Porecupine and Kirkland Lake are likely to be lasting camps. The total production of gold in the| Province to the end of 19250 was $184,000,000. _ _"Fourth in order, but not last in mportance, was the discovery of gold n the Poreupine area in 1909. ‘The Cobalt silver)| ecamp proved a school from which trained prospectors pushâ€" ed their way north and west into the forest wildernes;. Soms of them reached Poreupine Lake, and not far from its banks they discovered mounds of white quartz freely spatâ€" tered over with native gold, and also largeé veins in which the metal was plainly visible. The Dome, Hollinger, Mcelntyre and other wellâ€"known mines were opened. Forest fires devastated the region, and on one occagsion desâ€" troyed 71 human lives. The gold output, which in 1911 was $42,000, bas risen until 1925 it has reached about _ $29,500,000. The â€" Hollinger mine is one of the outstanding mines of the world, rivaling the best on the South African Rand. It has aboukt 7(0 miles urderground workings, emâ€" ploys 2,500 men, erushes approxiâ€" mately 5,000 tons of ore per day and turns out about $15,000,000 worth of gold per annum. PREâ€"CAMBRIAN SNIFL CovErs MOST 0f KORTh In a lengthy article in a recent issue of The Mail and Empire, Mr. Thos. “\(xlbson. Deputy Minister of Mines for Ontario, deals at length with the mining possibilitiee of the North Land. He concludes his interesting and informative article with the folâ€" lowing paragraphs :â€" Deputy Minister of Mines Suggests Probability of Other Sudburys, Porcupinecs, Kirklands and Cobalts. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Probablyâ€" North Bay needs a new jail. Maybe there are more people in need of jai} in the new city than there is accommodation for. In any event The Advance would not like to stifle any North Bay ambitions for bigger jat‘s and more of them. But so far as the North Country is concerned what is needed up here particularly is more roads from the Provincial Government and some post . offices from the Dominion Government. The following paragraph appeared in The North Bay Nugget this week: ‘‘Hon. Geo. S. Henry, Minister of Public Works and Highways will be in North Bay on Wednesday on a visit that may mean the establishâ€" ment of a provincial institution in, or near, the city. An unofficial report. in which considerable credence is placed, is that he is on the lookout for a new jail site. With Burwash now badly overcrowded a second Northern Ontario jail farm may be opened. Hoxwever this report of the reason for the minister‘s visit has not been confirmed. While in the crty Hon. Mr. Henry will be the guest of the Board of Trade at a noon lunchâ€" eon in ‘the Pacifie Hotel."" There is a report in cireulation in the North Land, though without any official recognition, that the Governâ€" ment is planning to establish another prison farm, similar to Burwash, in the North Land. At present Burâ€" wash is badly overcrowded, according to reports, and so the report referred to has considerable plausibility. The visit of Hon. Mr. Henry, Minister of Public Works, to the North recentâ€" ly has also been suggested as proof of the Government‘s plans in the matâ€" ter. "It might be a good idea for the Ontario Government to embrace this idea. ‘‘Build roads in the North Land, and you may build jails in the: South if you like." | FEWER JAILS AND MORE POST OFFICES NEEDED up to the usual high standard. The Industrial Farm at Burwash is reported as in the throes of a mild epidemic of _ grippe.
