J. Lawlor, of Timmins. The late Mrs. Laronde had been for fortyâ€"four years a resident of Sudbury, and The Sudâ€" bury Star last week makes the folâ€" lowing reference to her death :â€" "Sudbury lost one of its very earliâ€" est pioneers in the person of Angeâ€" line Dubreuil, widow of the late Charles Laronde, who passed away at her home on Eigin St. on Wednesday, Feb. 9th, 1927, at the age of 70. She had been ill only two days, although her death had been failing for some years. â€" The late Mrs. Laronde was aâ€" bout the first woman to make her home in Sudbury. Born in Mount 3t. Patrick, Renfrew County, she came to Sudbury with her hushand 44 years ago, when the C.P.R. line was under construction, her husband being emâ€" ployed as a carpenter on the work. For a short time Mr. and Mrs. Laâ€" ronde wereâ€" obliged toâ€" make their home in a section house, there being practically no other buildings in the vicinity, Soon after their arrival, however, Mr. Laronde built a house at the corner of Beech and Elgin Streets, which still stands and has continued to be oceupied by the Laâ€" ronde family. â€" The late Mrs. Laronde had a family of 14 children, ten of whom survive. They follows: Mrs. Jane Gregg, Sudbury; Mrs. P. Charron, Sudbury; Mrs. Thomas J. Lawlor, Timmins; Mrs. Sam Kuilby, Windsor; Miss Annmie Laronde, Sudâ€" bury; James, Frank, Alex and .John Laronde, of Sudbury, and Joseph Laâ€" ronde, of Detroit. _ Altogether Mrs. Laronde had 21 grandâ€"children.

Preâ€" vost, Sudbury, and four brothers, William Dubreuil, Coniston; Alex, of Windsor, and Theodore and Edward of Sudbury. Mrs. Laronde was an active member of Ste Anmnne‘s Roman Catholic Church, and of the Ladies of Ste Anne. During the course of her long residence in Sudbury she made a large number of friends, and was held in great esteem by all who knew her. Her death comes as a loss to the enâ€" tivre community. Her funeral which took place Saturday morning, was one of the largest held in Sudbury for some time, services being conducted in Ste Anne‘s (Church by > Reyv. Father Pare. The members of the Children of Mary and St. Joseph‘s Union assembled at the residence on Elgin St., and proceeded in a ‘body to the church. At the churech the cortege was met by the Ladies of Ste Anne, of which the deceased had been a member. Mrs. Laronde‘s five sons, with her nephew, George MceNeely, of Haileybury, acted .as pallâ€"bearers. Many beautiful floral offerings testiâ€" fied to the affectionate regard in which the deceased was held, which a large number of Mass cards were received from relatives and friends. Following the service the cortege preâ€" ceeded to the Roman Catholic cemeâ€" tery, where interment took place.‘‘ DEATH OF ESTEEMED PIONEER OF SUOBURY Mrs. Laronde, Mother of Mrs. T. J. Lawlor, of Timmins, Had Lived in Sudbury for Fortyâ€"four Years. Simee the recent tragedy at the Monireal motion picture show there has been much consideration of the matter of the attendance of youngâ€" sters at these places of entertainment. The North Land has been anxious to deal with the problem in the best possible way. The theatres and the authorities appear to be ready and willing to work together to protect the public, but parents sometimes are not apparently as desirous of coâ€" operating as they might be. _ Atter all, it should not be forgotten that the homes are primarily and particularly responsible for the youngsters. Coâ€" balt has been forward recently in seeking to provide the fullest protecâ€" tion for the youngsters, but strange as it may appear, some parents show gome ‘Wligposition to hbheat ithe law rather than to avoid danger for the kiddies. Fortunately, for the clhildâ€" ren, it is not legally possible for these thoughtless parents to _ jeopardize their children‘s safety, as they seem imclined to do. The whole question from this angle is dealt with in the last issne of The Northern News as follows :â€"â€" under 15 years of age may not be left alone in theatres at per ‘formances other than special maâ€" tinees for their benefit according to information gleaned from the provinâ€" cial authorities by Fire Chief Mathiceâ€" son, Cobalt. The adults legally canâ€" not purchase children‘s tickets alone. place the youngsters in seats, then go leave them. at is stated. Rev. J. D. Parks, in a brief ut very effective address, gave an inspirâ€" ational greeting to the new members, the weleome being in the true Kiwamis spirit. The new members introduced at the meeting on Monday were:â€" Mr. Reg. Smith, of L‘Ecuyer, Smith Elston, and Mr. ‘‘Chip‘‘ Ball, of Moisley Ball. ‘*The matter cropped up when two different parents, attending the high school show a week ago, bought ticâ€" kets for their children, put them in the theatre and then went out, leavyâ€" ing the children behind. No adults‘ tickets were purchased and when Manager Barrett interviewed one of the parents (a man), the latter arguâ€" £4 that he was within the act. ‘‘RMeport of the incident was made to the chief, who took up the question with the Amusement Tax Branch at Toronto, as the municipality was anxiâ€" ous to learn who would be responsible for the safety of the children in the event of danger. The reply states that the matter was a breach of the statnte omvem‘ngs the admission of charming little youngster a half years old, gave a de sentation of the latest « including the Charleston, beinge w@whbout perfect in One of the visitors for<the day was Mr. E. H. Bridger, manager of the Toronto office of Homer L. Gibson Co., who was given a very hearty welâ€" come by the gathering which number- ed hosts of hls old friends in the camp. Announcement â€" was made _ that Brig.â€"Gien. Mitchell, president of the Toronto Board of Trade, and several past presidents 8f the Toronto Board, would visit Timmins on March 15th, with Mr. Geo. W. Lee, chairman of the T. N.0O. Commission. Arrangeâ€" ments will be made by the Kiwanis Club to see that they are properly entertained and weleomed on their visit here, the matter being placed m the very capable hands of Mr. ‘‘Lap‘"‘ being w@whbout perfect in every way. Little Miss Bell was introduced by Mr. Karl Eyre, chairman of the enâ€" tertainment committee, and made a very decided hit. The speaker for the day was Mr. Joe Weston, whose subject was ‘*Chemicals of Yesteryear.‘"‘ The address, â€" dealing with drugs and chemicals, was a most interesting one and much appreciated, the clever and capable handling of the topic giving it particular interest and â€" winning special attention. A vote of thanks was tendered to the chairman of the Programme Comâ€" mittee, and also to the chairman of the House Committee, for their efliâ€" cient work. Laprairie. CANNOT LEAVE CHILDREN ALONE AT THE THEATRES The outstanding entertainment feaâ€" ture of the Kiwanis Club luncheon on Monday at the Empire Hotel was the clever and dainty dancing of Mr. and Mrs. Birrell Beli‘s little girl. This charming little youngster, three and a half years old, gave a delightful preâ€" sentation of the latest dance steps, including the Charleston, the dancing The Northern News last week says: ‘‘Leonard Heikila, Giroux Lake, performed a plucky act on Tuesday afternoon, when he stopped a runaâ€" way horse with some difficulty. The animal, which had been driven by F. H. Reid, Coniagas, had run away while the driver was on a trip to the Viectory mine, and was going toward Cobalt in a swift pace when it passed the Heikila home. The lad jumped on the sleigh but could not check the the horse‘s speed, as the lines were round its neek. Heikila then managâ€" ed to jump on the horse‘s back and brought it to a standâ€"still after an exciting ride."‘ Mr. Joe Weston Spealés on ‘*Chemicals of Yesteryear.‘‘ Inspiring Address by Rev. J. D.
