Urges Formation of Club in North to Study Pohtlcs Believes That the Only Way Northern Ontario Will Get Its Rights is "By Having Northern Ontarioâ€"Reared Politicians Claim These Rights." Suggests Club for Young Men to Study Politics. A young man in South Poreupine has written The Advance the letter published below. The young man atâ€" tached his name to the letter followâ€" ing the phrase ‘‘A Northern Boy," and The Advance, not being clear as to whether he‘wished his name pubâ€" lished or not, is not giving the name in this issue. If, as we hope, he will follow up this thoughtful letter with another one on the same subject, we will be pleased to append his name, if he will permit, and someâ€" thing may be done along the line he suegests. The very fact that young men, like our South Poreupine friend, show a thoughtful and keen consideration for the needs of the North is a hopeful sicn indeed. That an organization such as he suggests would be helpful is apparent on the face of it. If such C â€" me a 4 i% o# §¥ C q i Nee s 50800c an organization could be kept full of politics (in the real meaning of the word) and free from partyism (in the objectional form) the proposed organization would indeed be a great blessing to the North. It may be said, in passing, that there are toâ€"day so many organizaâ€" tions that it is difficult to even keep track of them. It might be that the purposes sought by the young man of South Poreupine could be earried through in connection with some exâ€" isting organization, such as the Board of Trade, for instance. It is undoubtâ€" edly true that something should be done to meet the need suggested. The Advance is "tertaein.that if the young men can only be keenly and intelliâ€" gvently interested in the politics of the North Land (‘‘politics,‘‘ being the science of government), then the future of this country is assured inâ€" deed. ‘*A Northern Boy"‘ is certainâ€" ly right in believing that The Advance will be anxious to assist in any moveâ€" ment that promises advantage to the North. In this, The Advance will be delighted to assist either old*or new organizations, as in the past. It must be said, in fairness, that the Ontario Government recently has shown a very commendable spirit of helpfulâ€" ness to the North, and it would also be ungrateful to forget what has been accomplished for this country by the Boards of Trade and other bodies. But, if more can accomplished, and if the help of the strength and the keenness of youth can be further enâ€" listed, The Advance, to use a slang phrase, is ‘‘all for it.‘‘ If The Adâ€" vance can do anything in any way, this paper will be delighted to do so. The letter referred to reads as folâ€" lows :â€" 1926. To the Editor of The Advance. Sir:â€"This time, when the citizens of Northern Ontario are greatly inâ€" terested in the political conditions and neéds of Northern Ontario, and Canada as a whole, 1 consider most opportune for me to bring to your notice something which has been one of thy fondest dreams for some time past. % #® y # ote ts ateafaateate ate Pn To 12e 6200700 n w South Poreupine, Ont., Sept. 18th NORTHERXN ONTARIOâ€"REARâ€" The youth of Ontario have to be learned in the conditions and needs of the North before they can get these rights, and they can only be taught these things by an organization with this purpose and the good of Northern Ontario in view. Such an organizaâ€" tion CAN and MUST be formed. ED POLITICIANS claim these rights. The Nortbland is a land of labour men, and the needs of the labour man are to be considered more than those of other classes, because their needs are greater than those of the other classes. Therefore their needs and conditions would figure prominently in the studies of such an organization, andâ€" their â€" conditions _ accordingly would be bettered. Nowhere in Northern Ontario have the young men been politically orâ€" organized, as elsewhere, and it is high time something was done in this reâ€" spect. And it is up to the, older men, the pigneers of the North, to see that somthing is immediately beâ€" cun in this direction I would like, at the earliest possibleâ€"moment, to get in touch with men who are interested in such work, and to get their views on the matter. I am writing this to you, sir, beâ€" cause you, through your worthy paper, are always working in the interest of the Northland, and if any movement will be begun for the forming of such an organization, I feel certain that you will be in it. 7. ton d ORGANIZATIONS MAY USt HIGH SCROOL Hoping that an organization of this time will soon be formed. I beg to remain, Yours sincerely, ‘‘A Northern Boy" Board Will Allow Its Use for Phyâ€" sical Culture Purposes Under Certain Strict Regulations School Board it was decided to allow. the use of the gymnmasium for physiâ€" cal culture purposes for town organiâ€" zations, under certain special condiâ€" tions and regulations. _ Previously the Board confined the use of the gymnasium to those attending High School. _ For the advantage of the town and sports generally, however, the Board is ready to allow a limited use of the gymnasium.

ONTARIO. NEW BARBER SHOP IN THE GOLDFIELDS THEATRE BLOCK Mr. J. Robitaille has opened a new barber shop in the Goldfields Theatre block, corner of Balsam and Third, in the premises formerly occupied by Stadelman‘s Book Store. _ Tike new barber shop is equipped in very comâ€" plete and upâ€"toâ€"date way, and will vive the best of modern barber shop sSservVIie HAMILTON MEN EXAMINE GOLD HILL AT BOSTON CREEK Recently, more than usual interest lhas been roused in the Gold Hill proâ€" perty at Boston Creek. Some days ago a party of business men came north to look over the Gold Hill and Hilltop claims. _ The party included Dr. P. B. MacFarlane, and Messrs. Thomas B. Tough, Charles B. Witeâ€" field, Frank H. Gage, H. W. Rodgers, S. Dunkin, George W. Gorrie, Jack A. Bell, and W. H. Montague, while P. J. Knox of New Liskeard, joined the party at the northern end of the trip. ; Development of the Gold Hill was found to be proceeding rapidly and the party had the opportunity of tracâ€" ing No. 1 vein at various levels down to a depth of 700 feet. They were imâ€" pressed with the way in which the vein widened out from a few inches on the surface to between six and seven feet in the lower working. On the 300â€"foot level the ore body had been opened up for more than 400 feet. â€" Crossâ€"cutting is now under way to pick up the vein at a depth of 800 feet. The visitors were shown several other ore bodies exposed on the surâ€" face, one of which lies to the south of vein No. 1 and has a width of several feet. As this vein dips to the north, it is expected that it will appear in the shaft at greater depth. Hilltop Mines is the larger of the two properties, and the vein system common to both has been traced over the two properties for a length of apâ€" proximately two miles. _ The visitors found that the Hilltop shaft, which is being sunk by hand drills had reached a depth of 54 feet, with the vein clearly defined all the way down. The work of installing a niining plant was well under way and shaft sinking at a more rapid rate should be resumed shortly. Several other veins outerop on the Hilltop property. â€" Carpenters were engaged in erecting fine buldâ€" ings to house a crew of over 50 men. Another gang of men was working on the power line which â€" will bri ing electricity to these two properties. %..*% FSP PR YA * :t. * + e e o o o‘ onoon3uocuoonoouoonoonoouoouoouoonoouoonoonoouoouoouobnoouoonoonoouoonoouoouoouoonoonoouoonoonoonronxuoomoomoomoomoomoonoonoom3n3u00no00000n00n00ooooooonoonoon’woouoonoouoooooou. omtnzm.onoonooooouoonoonoomoomoomoouoouoonoouoouocuoono bell +, n n id oi t oi i iedz ie enz S eS eS e e ol e ie t ie e e e h t ho Do o“o o*+ oMo 00“0 a*s o‘e ono *,* o»o 0“0 3 Â¥p o no ono 0“0 o“o ono ono »o 0“0 “o 0“0 + No “o 0“0 0“0 0“0 0“0 o“o 0“0 0“0 o“o ono owo o“oo 0»0 0“0 + “o QNo ono 0“0 g *« “o owo o»o o»o + “o 0“0 + no owo o«o o«o #i% ono Â¥#‘%0‘%% o“oo * * . “ “ 4 # “. % “1 + oo“o a*s °e 0“0 ** # “ ” $ ote o‘e onoo * 4 l 3 $ +4 .ono #*se‘e * 4. x4 “ 4 % 6 % i $ 3 * t o*e *4 74 3 6e ofloo + $ N 4. % %_% *4 3. 4 «s e‘s .. 5* 3 ote ce $ * $ 3 * *3 se 3. . 1. i * *s oo *4 743 3 3 0»0 ouo o“o onc "**3 erm $ *z k 4 06 0 Mr. and Mrs. Jos.
