Quite often around 4 p.m. the childâ€" ren call for mail after leaving school. I have often seen half a dozen, push their way in front of people, who were waiting in line, and get served right The following letter has been reâ€" ceived from ‘*Oldâ€"Timer,"‘ and there will be general agreement with the points he makes. it may be noted, however, that the complete answer tn his letter would ‘be a new post office where there would be room enough, to handle the big business of the nffic Premier I\mg said during the last cleetion Timmins ‘‘Ought to have had long ago.""‘ No doubt Mr. Jos, Braâ€" Oldâ€"Timer Makes Suggestions About the Local Post Office Railing at Wicket, with "In" and "Out"â€" Signs Would Help in Serving People in Their Turns.

After waiting for a minute or two, someone else apâ€" proaches the wicket also, with a parâ€" ecel to post. The clerk then appears on the scene, and quite often serves the last comer first.

He said he was not able to get work that he could do, or do work he could get, on acâ€" count of his age. Accordingly, he asked the magistrate to send him to Burwash for three months. _ He thought that three months from now, work might be better, or he might be better, or some way or another he might cease to be a burden to himself and others. The magistrate granted the man‘s request, and he did not have to wait three months for relier. Release from all his troubles came to Moses Parent while he was on his way to the C.N.R. station to take the train to burwash. He was seized with a heart attack and died almost instantâ€" ly. The inquiry conducted by Magisâ€" trate Brodie returned a verdict of death from heart failure. Under the pesent laws and regulations no blame is attached to anyone for this sad death, but the case does suggest that modern administration ‘has not yet reached any approach to perfection in dealing with those who are too ill or too old to work. AGED MAN DIES ON WAY TO JAIL AS A VAGRANT ‘*The many friends of the deceased will extend their sympathy to the surâ€" viving members of the family. One daughtex Mrs. Donald Russell, was with her father in Bermuda when he passed away. ‘*The late Mr. Hylands was born in England about sixty years ago, and is survived by his widow, two sons and three daughters."‘ ‘*«Mr. Hylands took a prominent part in the early history of Cobalt and was a member of the town council some years ago.. He was instrumentâ€" al, also, some years ago in organizing the Moderation League, which had a prominent part in the referendums held in Ontario in 1919. } i gue in Ontario. â€" At that time Mr. Hylands gave very generously of his time and effort. He visited every centre in the North with the purpose of organizing for the plebiscite of 1919 It may be said that had the same etâ€" fective effort been made all through the Province as was inaugurated in the North, largely through Mr.. Hyâ€" land‘s instrumentality, tho result of the voting of Dec. 1st this year might have been achieved at an earlier date. Mr. Hylands gathered a large amount of data and facts in regard to the way to deal with the liquor question. He believed in argument and discussion of all public questions. â€" He paid little attention to whether a question were popular or not; if he felt he had the right view, he went ahead. The late \Ir H)]ands owned â€" property _ in South Poreupine, and was a frequent visitor to this camp where he had many friends. The Haileyburian last week said: ‘*Mr. James Hylands, former wellâ€" known Cobalter, who has been in Berâ€" muda for his health for the past several years, died there on Tuesday of this week, @ccording to a message received by his sonâ€"inâ€"law, Mr. Roy Douglas, of Cobalt. J A. Habib : J. Ellies The following from the Hatleyburiâ€" an last week refers to a man who was wellâ€"known in the North Land as a publicâ€"spirited citizen whose interests were not confined to any one section of the North. On more than one 0c¢â€" casion he ecampaigned through the towns of the North for causes that he believed were good. _A notable inâ€" stance of this was the oceasion of the organization of the Moderation Leaâ€" Now that the Christmas season is on, the small space for the general public will often be erowded. If the local postmaster starts now, and uses a little sense with grownâ€"ups and a little ‘"‘tact‘‘ with children, he will stop much of the crowding and pushâ€" ing, besides giving his clerks a chance to serve the general public in a proâ€" per manner. Several people shouting for mail at onee, only confuses the clerks, and perhaps leads to letters being passed over and delaved. one. Come in and see themâ€"and bring the family.

An editorial item in The North Bay Nugget reads as follows:â€" ‘*‘An editorial passage of arms, which we fear, is cummouomw to deâ€" velop an acrimonious tinge, is on beâ€" tween Poreupine Advance and The Cobalt News.
