The Haileyburian says :â€" "Two little girls aged eight and twelve years are all that are left of a family which arrived last spring from Finland to settle in Canada. The father, Mick Porre who had seâ€" cured a job in the Wrightâ€"Hargreaves mine at Kirkland Lake, met with an accident in the mine last week, when he was erushed by a fall of rock and died later in hospital. The mother had succumbed to illness three months ago, shortly after the arrival of the family in this country, where they had reasonably expected to make a new home for themselves and where, according to those who have known them, they had made a good start. The two little girls are at present being taken care of by the Children‘s Aid Society, an .organization which has for many years been one of the vreatest forees for good in this North Country. Its activities extend into the most remote parts of the districts| of Temiskaming and Cochrane, and so far as lies in its power, no ehildâ€" ren are allowed to suffer negleet or BARRISTER, SOLICITOR, ETC.

The fireplaces are of stone and so â€" constructed _ that they constitute no danger of causing any bush fires, In addition they are much more convenient than. the orâ€" dinary camp fire. There is no reason why tourists and others should not confine themselves to the exelusive uso of the fireplaces, and a dozens reasons why they should do so. In other more active ways the Government is alsoo taking especial care to do away with the danger of forest fires. At the present time the Government has under consideration a telephone line for the use of the fire rangers who patrol the Temagami Forest Reserve. The line, when comâ€" pleted, will link up all the various observation towers in the area, inâ€" cluding the one at Cobalt, with the headquarters of the chief ranger, Mr. Hindson, at Temagami. The sy stvm, it is said, has been so arranged and perfected that the location of a reâ€" ported fire can be determined at once almost within a quarter of a mile. The pole line between the Cobalt towers and LAaTCNREOTG Is nNnow DCLZY erected. Other plans for the safety of the Temagami Forest Reserve are also reâ€" ported. Brush at the side of the road gus been cut down and taken away. hig is also understood to have the further purpose of being preliminary to a general widening of the roadway of the Ferguson highway through the reserve. At certain points, it is said, the necessary widening of the road has already been made. Many loads of fresh gravel have been placed on the road between Cobalt and Temaâ€" gami, and repairs and improvements are being carried on right along to put the road in the best possible shape all along the line.â€" At certain points small bridges have been reâ€" ie Opening OT vay through part S"orest Reserve ha ittle to the hat section, thou nigcht be points small bridges have been reâ€" placed by solid ones with cement eulâ€" verts and this is generally approved as a decided improvement. With the highway thus improved and with the the Government to accommodate the very evident intention and desire of public apparent on all sides, those using the Ferguson highway should return the compliment by giving every possible consideration to the general safety and comfort The Government has made it as easy as possible to use the road with safety and comfort. The tourists and the people of the North using the highway should, in good sportsmanship do all that may be done to minimize any chance of avoidable accident to others and all possibility of unnecessary injury to the highway. There should be espeâ€" cial to prevent any possibility of the starting of any fires in the bush. There is no oceasion for camp fires with the fireplaces provided, and there should be no careless tossing ground of matches, or cigar or cigarette butts.
