The ore reserves were increased from $13,358,420.00 in 1914 to $16,031,â€" 600.00 for the year of 1915. The reâ€" port pointed out that ore was still being taken from the 425 ft. level and above, the lower levels being unâ€" touched as sourdes‘ of ore.

After an excellent dinner a preâ€" sentation was made to Assistant Chief Stockwell by the brigade. The Assistant Chief had enlisted with the 159th Battalion.

Ten years ago Timmins was alive to the need for good roads. So strong was the feeling that something should be done that a Good Roads Association was organized to help things along. The Advance in this regard, said:â€"‘"A meeting was held on Monday afternoon in the Council Chamber, of advocates of good roads, and after discussing the question very fully the following: officers were elected: President, R. J. Enâ€" nis; Viceâ€"President, J. P. Meclaughâ€" South Poreupine was threatened with a very serious fire ten years ago. The Advance of May 10th, 1916, says:â€"‘‘*About 9.45 on Saturday forenoon, May 6th, fire broke out in the building known as the Club Saâ€" loon and Cafe, on Bruce Ave., South Poreupine. Smoke was issuing beâ€" tween the boards of:the outside walls all along the front. An alarm was promptly rung in and the chemical engine was quickly on the scene. However the fire evidently had a good hold inside and continued to make progress. In the meantime, the fire brigade, with the splendid assistance of the men of the 159th platoon, had connected up the hose, but owing to the distance over which it was laid ‘from the main at the track, the pressure was poor at both the nozzles. Timmins fire engine was wired for, but the fire was under control before the engine could reach south Poreupine. Thé roof of the Canadian ‘Bank of Commerce was on fire, but was saved by the efforts of the brigade and volunteers. Sky Bros. store had a_ very narrow escape, being at one time slightly on fire at one of the upper corners. H. N. dJoy‘s hardware store was for quite a time in danger and has a blackened appearance in consequâ€" ence. The buildings destroyed were: Homer L. Gibson block (including the Customs office), the Club Saloon and Cafe, and the building formerâ€" ly occupied by Mr. George Fairhaion The damage is estimated at about $10,000. _ Lack of sufficient water was the main cause of so much damage beâ€" ing done, the local fire pump being out of order at the time and the princiâ€" pal supply having to be taken from the Dome pipe on the hill."‘ The new band of the 159th Batâ€" talion visited Timmins on May 9th, 1916, marching from South Poreuâ€" pine. S. H. Scroggs was the bandâ€" master and there were 25 players in the ‘band. l l l cillor Dr. J. A. MeInnis, Mr. W. G. Smith, Mr. Mac Lang, M.P.P., and others. Mr. Jack Cade favoured the gathering with a vocal solo. Mr. E. H. Hill sent regrets at being unâ€" able to be present being called out of town on important business. Owâ€" ing to the illness of Mrs. Nolan, Fire Chief Nolan was also unable to attend Marshailâ€"Ecclestone Block Barrister, Solicitor, Etce. has moved to the (upstairs) The Schumacher Mine shipped a gold brick of some importance, as will be seen from The Advance of ten years ago which contains the following paragraph:â€" "‘F. W, Schumacher, president of the Schuâ€" macher Mines has been visiting the property. He expregsed himself well pleased with the recent developments on the property. The veins cut in the crosscut on the 600 foot el have developed encouragingly‘ The mill is running near capacity, treating aâ€" bout 140 tons of ore a day. Average mill values, continue around the eight dollar mark. ‘The largest gold brick from the Schumacher was shipâ€" ped a few days ago. It was valued at $18,000."* Ten year ago The Advance was advocating _ sehool playgrounds. At the initial meeting of the St. Matthew‘s Tennis Club ten years ago, A. W. Reid was glected presiâ€" dent; Mrs. J. D. Patterson, viceâ€"preâ€" sident; W. R. Dodge, secretary; and (G. S. Lowe, field captain. Among the interesting local notes in The Advance of May 10th, 1916, the {following:â€"‘*Bornâ€"At South Poreupine to Mr. and Mrs. T.

F/ H. Stockwell left town Tuesday morning. He will accompany his family on their way to St. John, N.B., and then reâ€" turn to North Bay to enter the nonâ€" Commissioned officers‘ class."‘ ‘*Laâ€" dies of St. Matthew‘s Church Guild presented Mrs. F.

Ellis Gridley, formerly â€" wellâ€" known in the North Land, is to be brought back from Calgary where he is serving a sixâ€"months‘ term to stand trial on charges arising from the judiâ€" clal inquiry into the financial affairs of the Township of Bucke during the time that Gridley was clerk of that. municipality. The present disparagement of Red Lake is no doubt more or less a reâ€" flex from the undue praise given the camp. Red Lake.may yet justify all the good things said about it, while there is no warrant whatever for the present flurry of disapproval. It cerâ€" tainly is not fair to condemn Red Lake both because it is said to . be _too ~poor and also too rich. is entitled to a fair test. But, perhaps, there is no way of stopâ€" ping a certain class of people from absurd criticism. Mark Twain onee told about a man who, when he had no other convenient subject for comâ€" plaint, objected: strenuously because he thought there were too many preâ€" historic toads in his anthricate coal. Bachelor of Science who elaims that Rted Lake gold is too rich and conâ€" sequently the camp is a very poor one. ‘‘Experience has shown that where the gold is rich, the deposit is invariably very small and isolated."" Of course, this Bachelor of Science may think that $10 to $17 per ton is very rich ore, or he may imagine that a few hundred millions in gold is not worth troubling about. Experiâ€" ence, as a matter of fact, has shown that the successful mines in most of the gold camps have had rich spots. Hollinger has had a lot of spectacuâ€" lar ore as well as large bodies of comâ€" mercial grade. The same is true aâ€" bout mines in the Kirkland area. Ssimildr statement could be made in regard to South African mines. Minâ€" ing men have a saying that upsets all the pronouncements as to. absolute prophecy about this or that formation. ‘‘(Gold is where you find it,‘‘ is the sayving. Those who in the last week or two have posed as heroes ready to exâ€" plode the myth about Red Lake beâ€" ing a mining camp appear to be speaking out of their turn. _ Also, they seem to be talking not only aâ€" gainst Red Lake, but also against themselves. One of these mining exâ€" perts said that Red Lake was a poor kind of camp because that gold there would not average more than $10 to $17 a ton. Now along comes another Pine Street at First Avenue Timmins The present faultâ€"finding with Red Lake should not be taken seriously. There is no more data to go on now than ere was three months ago. Red Lake may or may not be a bonâ€" anza. What it is, one way ‘or the other, has yet to be proved. All that is known toâ€"day, or ean be known toâ€"day, is that it is worthy of investiâ€" gation and exploration. As the Minâ€" ister of Mines pointed out recently Red Lake has won the right to a thorâ€" ough testing out. ‘*School playgrounds have proved an asset to communitiee where they have been installed,""‘ {said The Adâ€" vance) â€" ‘‘providing a rendezvous with good surroundings for the children during their leisure hours,"" It was many a year after that before any concerted effort was made to provide recreation for the children at the school grounds.
