The lake is six miles wide by fifteen miles long, and the small islands are many and very attractive. lne idea of owning an island all by one‘s self is itself an intriguing idea to most people, and as many of these islands are only three to five acres in extent, and the price is $10.00 per acre, it is easy to understand how they are quickly being taken up. The Government has ]ldd the islands surâ€" veyed, numbered and offered for sale. Many residents of Timmins and South Poreupine have recently secured ‘‘an island of their own,""‘ and next season no doubt many more will be tal\mv advantage of the opportunity.‘ Lieut.

The beauty of the Ni ake section would be hard and the numerous island through the lake make i summer home spots, with s and boatinge facilities, and ltlne clerk, Mr. H. E. Montgomery, the company promised consideration and asked for further information, but nothing resulted further for a time. Councillor Williams kept the matter forward, and Mr. Montgomery kept letters going to the company. _ The final result was that free express deâ€" livery was put into foree in Timmins last week, to the advantage and conâ€" venience of the public. The express company will also call for all pareels to leave here by express. Already the service has pmved of decided benefit to the business men and the people in general, and all are well pleased \\ith this ev 1dmwo of the express company ‘s desire to give the best service to the public.*‘ In passing it may be noted that some years after there was anâ€" the delivery limits. Also, it may hbe mentioned that The Advance also in this connection attempted to tip off the public in regard to one feature of the express delivery service, as the following paragraph will show :â€" Tt may be of more than passing interest to note that, unless under seizure by the police, llqum' parcels coming by express will be delivered the same as other parcels. At the same time, it should be remembered by those \\hn may think to take advantage of this, that to illegally receive and auopt liquor from a express carrier is as much of an offence as to illegally seâ€" cure it from the station."" It would have saved some people in town several hundred dollars each to have noted this note. * « In 1917, as in 1927, blueberry and mspberrv crops were p(u'twularl\ good in this district. In 1917 the patriotic and thrifty families took full advanâ€" tage of these berry crops. For weeks, each day men, women and children, espacially the latter two, were ‘)llb\ on the patches in the district on every occeasion, including evening, halfâ€" holl(]d\v and \un(la\b. The road to the Hollmger Reserve was a specially favourite spot. The Oddfellows‘ Picnic on Thursâ€" day, August 16th, was a big success. The event was held at Barber‘s Bay, and there was a large crowd hom Timmins and from practically every other station along the line. South Poreupine and Cochrane were specialâ€" ly well represented, though in those days there were no connecting roads for the motor iwcars. The programme of sports was a good one. It was civie holiday in Timmins. Special attention was given ten years ago to the possibilities of Night Hawk Lake asa summer resort.
