FLOW Of POPULATION 1S NOW T0 THE NORTH LAND wealth and populationâ€"a â€" country that speaks of Old Ontario as ‘‘The South.‘‘ Ontario is losing the feelâ€" ing that she is merely a ‘belt of inâ€" habited territory along the American border. She is losing the false conâ€" ception of the North that pictured it as a cold frozen region that inspired dread. Within very recent times this The Simeoe Reformer is one 8f the papers of Southern Ontario that conâ€" sistently pays special attention to the North Land. _ The Reformer always takes a keen and intelligent part in any discussion or consideration of the North Land and so there will be more than passing interest in the following editorial from the last issue of The Reformer :â€" false conception has been exploded and the dread has gone. Ontario is feeling more elbow room. Inspiring conceptions of the possibilities of her vast territory are dawning. *Mr. Cyril T. Young, who has just been made fellow of the Royal Geograâ€" phical Society because of his new book, ‘‘Mineral Resources,"‘‘ in an adâ€" dress to the Gyro Club of Toronto reâ€" cently said: ‘‘When Canadians realâ€" ize the almost untold wealth of our North Country, the young men will be trekin@ up there in thousands instead of looking elsewhere for their future prospects.‘‘ ‘‘More neweomers were now coming into the North Country in one year, he said, than had settled in any westâ€" ern province in the past five years. as to its being a cold frozen ‘*‘And as to its being a cold frozen country it must be remembered that all our vast North now under developâ€" ment lies in a more southerly latitude than the city of Winnipeg. Canadians have been irritated by assumption of American friends that Canada is a cold frozen country and have protestâ€" ed against the title ‘‘Our Lady of the Snows‘‘ being applied to Canada. And yet we in Old Ontario formerly held the same opinion of our North Osisko, thirty miles from the Transâ€" continental, had been compelled to remove their drill two weeks ago beâ€" cause the ice on the lake was breakâ€" ing up. Ontario was once called Canaâ€" da West. Then came the rush to the West. ‘‘Go West, young man!‘‘ beâ€" came a popular slogan. The empty prairies filled up; new provinces were organized, and then Ontario experiâ€" enced the new sensation of being callâ€" ed ‘‘The East,‘"‘ or, at least, of being enced ed: * t looked C ountr r and with no better reason for doing so.

A DELIGHTFUL â€" DONE IN NAVY AN: Mrs. A. Feldman is very grateful to Mrs. M. I,. Puilon, of 404 Main avenue, for the latter‘s kindness and thoughtfulness in very promptly reâ€" turning Mrs. Feldman‘s purse, lost at the fire sale on Monday. The purse contained a number of shares of stock aud so was of special value to the owâ€" ner. Mrs. Feldman promptly notified the police of the loss and also inserted an advert. in The Advance to secure the return of the purse and contents. Mrs. Pilon found the purse and at onee took steps to locate the owner and very soon had the purse and contents back in the owner‘s possession. If all who find lost articles would take the same interest and thoughtfulness in finding the rightful owner, it would relieve anxiety and be of much adâ€" vantage. Too often those finding articles appear to ‘be regardless of the rights of others. The prompt way in which Mrs. Pilon located the owner and returned the property is worthy of note because it is an example not always followed, but one that should be followed by all finding articles of value. The Red Lake Centre Mines, Ltd., have purchased all the holdings in the Red Lake district which were formerâ€" ly controlled. by the Victoria Syndiâ€" cate, and is now in possession of twentyâ€"three properties in the disâ€" trict mentioned.
