Music by the A.S.D. orâ€" chestra. â€"It is sure to be a very pleasâ€" ant and successful event. EXPECT STAKING BEE IN SHINING TREE DISTRICT. A correspondent writing last week {rom Sudbury says:â€"No new claims have been staked in Connaught Townâ€" ship recently, but it is confidently exâ€" pected here that this township and the entire Shining Tree area will be the sceene of a staking bee after April 1. Over 300 claims are reportâ€" ed as being staked in Connaught, and prospectors now seem to be only holdâ€" ing back until the new licenses are issued before flocking into the area. The road into Connaught is now finished, but requires some minor imâ€" provement before the diamond drill which is at Shining Tree can be transâ€" ported into the claims here by the N. A. Timmins interests. An extenâ€" sive programme of drilling is planned, and the first work will be done on the old Matatis claims, whiuch were oriâ€" winally staked about 1913. It is exâ€" pected that copper deposits of some size will be revealed on this property. ‘‘Copper in Connaught Township is not a new discovery, as will be seen from the foregoing, the 1913 Mataris staking now forming the nucleus of the Timmins‘ holding, which are now understood ‘ to inclide 33 claims.

The name of Coniagas has been mentioned in connection with a pending deal for the Moore claims, which are about two miles east of the Timmins boldings. Howey Br®#thers and George MeNeilly, of Haileybury, have acquired claims adjoining the Timmins goup, and Ed. Darragh, also of Haileybury, is reportâ€" ed as having 30 claims.

OBSERVE SLVER JUBILEt Gathering Last Week at New Lisâ€" keard to Celebrate Ulose of Silver Jubilee Year.

Tayâ€" lor, the morning session opened in the main show room of New Liskeard branch, all branch managers, the deâ€" partment heads and their assistants, being in attendance. Mr. R. S. Tayâ€" lor, following up the opening remarks of the president, not only laid before the meeting a most comprehensive eâ€" view of the firm‘s operations"during the recently closed fiscal year, but opâ€" ened for discussion the entire schedule of the current year‘s plans. True to the traditions handed down by the firm‘s founder to his successors, an adherence closer than ever to the "Service for the Customer‘‘ motto, was urged as the slogan for the New Year. The meeting received added zest from interesting addresses delivâ€" ered by representatives of the manuâ€" facturing concerns whose products form the staples i1 the trade of the Taylor Hardware, the address of Mr. Cameron, Sales Manager of the Onâ€" tario Gypsum Company, on *‘ Insulex and (GGypsum Construction Material‘‘ proving most enlightening. "©Even the afternoon session, alâ€" though opening at 1.30 and closing at 6 p.m., proved far too short for the full discussion of the numerous subâ€" jects on the convention programme. the 6.30 dinner at the (Grand Union Hotel, a general session was held attended by the complete staifs of the New Liskeard and Cobalt branches and the representatives from Timmins and Cochrane branches. The: greatest interest was displayed by all present in the theme presented by Mr. H. G. Laidlaw on the subject of the "Growing Trade Volume‘‘ of the Tayâ€" lor Hardware in Mining and Milling machinery and supplies. Mr. W. Rutherford of the Assay department of Cobalt branch, made the gathering acquainted with the Taylor Hardâ€" ware‘s most interesting department, Engineers‘ Supplies,"!‘ folâ€" lowing the needs of the Mining Inâ€" dustry through all its stages, from the unexplored prospect to the fully producing plant, and the ability of the Taylor Hardware to supply all the needs for this industry. After the close of the session at 11 p.m., over fifty members of the different stafts gcathered for the Annual Banquet at the Grand Union Hotel. ‘‘The hotel management deserves "the highest praise for the sumptons repast served, and the efficient and _courteous service extended typical of true northern hogpitality. Mr. R. S. Tavlor‘s resourcefulness again disâ€" played itself in the novel feature he introduced of the toast proposals to the differentâ€"branches being sung in chorus by all present on the familiar ‘"‘How D‘ve Do"‘ tune.

Eliford of the World‘s Poultry Congress appeared before the agricultural committee of the Canadian House of Commons last week and addressing that body stated the poultry world is following the development of the poultry industry in Canada wlosely, and that at the coming Congress, Canadian exhibits would predominate. â€" Canada holds all records for eggâ€"laying, Mr. Elford said, and while phenomenal production may not be desirable on the whole its value as an advertisement for the Doâ€" minion has been great. Mr. Elford told the parliamentarians that at least thirty countries would be reâ€" presented at the Congress, and posâ€" sibly forty. He stressed the need for a large attendance of Canadian dele: yates if the representatives of overâ€" seas countries were to go home with a lasting impression of Canada and Canadians. ‘Lra aures ay; 31 puo 0J 4ajja(q JNQG ‘Xjopes fep ay; jiegs 0; pood St }1 HEAD â€"OFFiCE TORONTO You can‘t letâ€"up and keepâ€"up!
