Club :â€" To the Employees of the Hollinger Mine:â€" Reference was made in The Adâ€" vance ten years ago to the generous contributions made by the Hollinger employees to the various good patriâ€" otic causes. _ The Hollinger Mines employees, The Advance said, had contributed $1,762.50 to the Timmins branch of the Red Cross Society, and an equal amount to the Poreupine branch of the Canadian Patriotic Fund. The Timmins D. Y. B. Club had received $450.00. The total thus contributed by the Hollinger employâ€" ees was almost $4,000.00. ‘"It is unâ€" derstood,""‘ says The Advance, "‘ that every employee contributed one day‘s pay to this donation, and that this will be done every third month on the distinct understanding that there will be no soliciting, selling of tickets or tags for the balance of 1916. It is to be hoped that the fine example set by the Hollinger employees will be followed by those of the other mines in the neighborhood, and by the townspeople, merchants and their emâ€" ployees in the Town of Timmins. The giving of dances, entertainments and such consume a large part of the money subscribed to them, and the selling of tags and tickets is a conâ€" stant source of annoyancey, so that the scheme of monthly or _ triâ€"monthly payments or subseriptions would do away with the necessity for all that.

Something of the true oldâ€"time sprurit of this North Land was eviâ€" denced last week in the way that young and old turned out and worked in the search for .the lost baby,â€"the little Philtot girl, aged about two years and a half. The child was lost for two days and two nights, and from the time word was received that the youngster was missing until the child was found again, groups of willâ€" ing â€" workers were busv earnestly sear(hmo' for a trace of the youngâ€" ster. Clnet of Police E. Pascoe told The Advance this week that fully three hundred people took part in the search for the child, groups being out continuously nlcrht and day. The Provincial Police a551sted the Jlocal police, and the local Chief Fire Rangâ€" er and his staff were untiring in their efforts. The Fire Ranger and all this men, using four canoes, made a thorâ€" ough search of the bush, visiting all shacks, and generally conducting a complete search. Volunteer citizens showed equal interest and helpfulâ€" ness, placing themselves at the disâ€" posal of the police and doing everyâ€" thing they could to help. Some of them were out day and. night. Mr. Cadman, of the Poreupine Power Telephone Co., assisted very generâ€" More Than Three Hundred Assist in Search Last Week ously in getting volunteer searchers by having the telephone girls call up all the business places, suggesting that one from each place be loaned to help in the search. The response to this call showed that Timmins is the right kind of a town and that even the countil can not kill kindness and helpfulness. Very material asâ€" sistance in the search was given by the boys of the High School, Public School and Separate School, each of the three schools lending about sevenâ€" ty pupils for the work on Thursday. Chief Pascoe asks The Advance to exâ€" press his personal thanks to each and all assisting so kindly and earnestly in the search for the lost child. It was no one‘s fault that search was specially centered in the wrong direcâ€" tion, the clues all suggesting that the youngster had travelled otherwise than in the northerly direction actualâ€" y taken by the child. Chief Pascoe Axpresses particular appreciation to the three schools for letting the boys come to assist in the search. Everyâ€" one was delighted when the chid was found, litfle harmed by its unfortunate experience, and especially were all glad, indeed, that no sort of crime had been involved in the disappearâ€" ance of the youngster, as some had sadly feared.
