Every afternoon and evening during the past week the local curling rink was one of the noisiest and busiest places in the town, the cries of the competing curlers and the excited reâ€" marks of the spectators being ample proof that as a popular sport for winter in Timmins the game of eurlâ€" ing has come to stay.

At police court in Ottawa recently fifteen people paid $5.00 and costs each, a total of $7.00 per man or $105 for the bunch, for not having radio licenses. As the licenses are only $1.00 per year, it is easy to see that neglect to get a license is surely a foolish thing for any fan. The inci dent is mentioned here as a hint to radio users in this district. Some of them used to ibe careless as to whether or not they had a license. In this matter, like in most things, it does not pay to be careless. An invitation has been received from the Haileybury Curling Club, to a Bonspiel being held in Haileybury on February 23rd, 24th and 25th. There will be two main events and a consolation event. Two prizes will be given, a first and second in both the main events, and a consolation prize. On Monday evening the ‘spiel will open with a Smoker, the first competition to start the next day.

Mr. Aria is at present on a holiday visit to <this North Land.: will leave shortly for Crystal Lake, Kirkâ€" land area, anxtous to experience for a time the peace and quietness of camp life and to study and play his beloved violin untroubled by the disâ€" tractions of city life and turmoil. It is hoped, however, that before leavyâ€" ing the North, Mr. Aria may be inâ€" duced to play,in Timmins so that the musicâ€"lovers of this district may have opportunity to hear this very talented violinist, generally acclaimed as one of the most outstanding artists of the present day. Official figures give the loss from the fire at the Hunter block, Cobalt, as $63,771.75, with $32,871.75 insurâ€" ance carried.

The official report gives the Moore Drug Co.â€"as the heaviest losers ($20 â€" 000. OO with $6,500.00 insurance). GREAT VIOLINIST NOW /\ WISITINE RORTH LAN Pietro Aria, Noted Italian Violinist, Spending Some Days in Timmins en Tour of the North, It was in April, 1915, while still a lad of 19, that young Aria was preâ€" sented to the American publicâ€" by O‘Brien Butler, Ireland‘s great comâ€" poser, who had then come from Lonâ€" don, England, to introduce modern Irish music to this continent. Mr. Butler selected the gifted young Itaâ€" lian, Aria, to play his sonata at a concert in New York. Reviewing this first performance, a noted critic in The Musical Courier said:; â€" ‘"‘"He plays with an abandon and assurance; his numbers, sufficient to test the ability of a more mature artist, were rendered artistically. With lus openâ€" inb number he at once demonstrated that heâ€"possesses merit of a high order."‘ After this pronounced success, Mr. Aria gave many recitals, returmng to Europe in 1919, leaving behind him a large followmg' of admirers. â€" Since then he has recently given a number of concerts in New York, where he was acclaimed with unanimous and inâ€" creasing entlmslasm by public and press. Timmins has a distinguished visitor these days‘in the person of Mr. Pietro Aria, one of Italy‘s greatest present day violinists, who is stopping at the Empire Hotel, expecting to remain in Timmins for a few days before conâ€" tinuing his trip through Northern Ontario, a district Mr. Aria is visiting for the first time. He is much imâ€" pressed with this country, finding it full of natural beauty and extraorâ€" dinary opportunities. To his artistic temperament the vast spaces and the rugged grandeur make singular apâ€" peal. The gold camps also have been for Mr. Aria a great source of inâ€" terest.
