Not only in Canada but in the United States and Great Britain, have newspapers and current magaâ€" zines commented most favorably upon this musical event, the first venture along these lines being in May when the Canadian Folksong and Handicraft Festival was held at the Chateau Frontenac, Quebec City. Proof of the interest taken in them across the water was given necently when the Right Hon. Stanley Baldâ€" win, Premier of Great Britain, comâ€" mented upon the Folksong Festival held at Quebec. This event was one of the first of public interested touched upon by the Premier after hbhis arrival in Canada. Mr. Baldwin observed with pleasure the success of the Festival and sated that events of that kind were invaluable in keeping alive the oldâ€"time cusâ€" toms, songs and handicrafts which, he was zsory to observe, were wont THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Lt.â€"Gov.

Organizing work in connection with them ‘has been of pioneer nature as these fesâ€" tivals are the first of their kind to have been staged in Canada. This work was undentaken by J. Murray Gibhbon, general publicity agent of the Canadian Pacific whose personal interest largely accounted for their success.

It was hbere in the same mountains, unrivâ€" alled in the world for beauty, that the Scottish Festival was held and for which bundreds gathered from all parts of the country to attend. The Gathering was of a national character, an each of the seventeen to ‘be forgotten in the rush and bustle of the present day. 38.6â€"Porquis â€" Junction, _ straight through following railroad on right.

They watched with keen inâ€" terest the whirling dance steps of the Seots and were awed by the skirl of the pipes. In turn they deâ€" monstrated their oldâ€"time ceremonial songs and dancees described by the early Sceottish explorers, such as Sir Alexander Maczkenzie and Alexander Hentry. Scottish regiments in Canada had pipers present to compete for the highest honors. The artists themâ€" selves were in most cases Scots of no mean artistry. The festival of music was supplemented by a full program of Scottish games and tests of prowess, which proved one of the outstanding features of the threeâ€" day gathering. The preliminary estimates of the gold production of the Poreupine for the first nine months of this year are now available and show a new record for the tonnage handled. According to the preliminary estiâ€" mates just prepared, the output of the mines of the Poreupine for the period from Jan. lst to Sept. 30th, 1927, reached an aggregate of $17,â€" 500,000.00 During the nine months the mills handled an aggregate of upwards of Nine Months of 1927 Set Record for any Similar Period in Amount of Ore Milled. During the nine months the mills handled an aggregate of upwards of 2,600.000 tons of ore. The tonnage handled for the period was the highâ€" est for any nine months so far in.the history of the mines of Poreupine. However, the output record was lower than that shown during the first nine months of 1926. _ This decline was chiefly due to the lower grade ore being treated at Hollinger, and, due in part, to decline in production from part, Dome. From present appearances, the deâ€" cline in output from Poreupine as a whole is at an end. Hollinger may be expected to handle greater tonâ€" nage from this date forward, and may also be expected to stem the tide of lower grade ore. Melntyre may also be expected to work toward hWher tonnage and greater production, to the end that the mines of Porcupine will in 1928 establish the highest reâ€" cord so far attained. The indications are that while the 1927 production may amount to around $23,500,000 yet the output for 1928 will probabl} show an increase of 10 to 15 per cent at least in gross vield, and with a corresponding inâ€" crease in net profits.
