The Sudbury Star last week says: , **Announcement is made that plans are under way for the reâ€"opening of the Canadian Explosive Company‘s plant at Nobel. A gang of 200 men will commence work toâ€"day repairing the tracks and an additional 200. will be employed at the plant within the next three or four days. The repair work in the track will be done by the C.P.R., dn whose line the present plant is situated, about six miles from Parry Sbund. There is two miles of standard gauge track and five miles of narrow gauge. Materials are at present being treated by the Canada Creosote Co., of Sudbury. The Nobel plant has not been operated since the warâ€"and will require extensive repair work. During the war it was one of largest producing explosive plants in Canada, but with the exception of a small quantity of cordite has producâ€" ed nothing for eight years. The openâ€" ing is said to the result of an amicaâ€" ble arrangement between the company and the town of Parry Sound for electrical power.‘"‘ | EXPLOSIVE PLANT TO BE REâ€"OPENED AT NOBEL.

The prizes for the leaders will stand as at present. Inâ€" deed, they may be enlarged.
