The case, in which Haileybury men are involyv 0(1 will be heard on Dec. 6th: : A. D. \I(u\lthur Son, garageâ€" men, are suing C. H. Luldlcott for '22.2 Lor \\hl(h $100 s ior the truck ‘md $115.64 for four tires and tubes. The defendant says he enterâ€" ed into a verbal agreement, to purâ€" chase the truck for the Luldlmtt Botâ€" tling Works, but itâ€"was to be in ‘‘good running order,"‘ and that, on the asâ€" sumption it would be, he ordered tires and tubes. The tlucl\ had to be reâ€" turned, he asserts. WINTER GRAVELLING TO BB DONE ON FERGUSON HIGHWAY Camps are now being prepared fTor small gangs of men for this work. There is some difference of opinion as to the value of winter gravelling. There are some who believe that it is a great plan and should be followed extensively. Others are not so enâ€" thusiastic, pointing out that the plan has disadvantages, one of the chief of these being that the gravel can not be properly placed and spread with the snow on the ground.. However, it is certain that the hauling of gravel in the winter time is much more econoâ€" mical, and as in the present case the work is all under the direction of the Northern Ontario Development Deâ€" partment it may be taken for granted that the plan will be followed through with suceess. Everyone will feel that too much gravel can not be placed on the highway, and that as soon as spring opens the Northern Developâ€" ment Department will look after any spreading or other adjustment that mav be necessary. This month the work of winter egraâ€" velling of the Ferguson highway is to commence, d('(,(ndmn' to 101)01 Camps are now being prepared fm LOW COSTS PREVAILING IN WORK AT HOWEY MINE As near as may be ealculated at this time, the cost of operations at Howey (rold Mines is comparing faâ€" vourably with many other mining operations situated adjacent to the cail wavys. Airplane service has been of incalâ€" culable benefit to operations on the Howey and will continue to be a facâ€" tor in holding down costs. â€" In the old days without airplane service, breakâ€" age of some minor part in the plant was the signal for a general holiday of a week or so.â€" However, with airâ€" planes in operation it is possible to have new parts delivered more rapidly than if express train service was available. As such breakage oceurs usually in small parts of the equipâ€" ment, the danger of serious delay in getting repairs to greatly reduced. In addition to driving long drifts along the Howey ore body, it is also proposed to crossceut the deposit at more or less regular intervals so as to be able to estimate the average width. The Kirkland Lake Northern News last week says:â€"‘‘*Fourteen ladies of Arbutus Chapter, Timmins, were guests of Tonie Chapter last 'luo\da\' The\' were entertained by a banquet in the evening and later conferred the degree of the order.‘ UUUUUU Kirkland Lake Kirkland Lake Kirkland Lake to crosscut the deposit at ss regular intervals so as to estimate the average width.

It sets out the case in graphie way. After reading this letter it is not likely that there will be any support for the idea of bare sidewalks in any part of this town unless the same condition obtains all over as in the cities. The Editor, Poreupine Advance, Timmins, Ont. F Dear Sir:â€"May I be permitted to Dear Sir:â€"May I be permitted to voice through the columns of your paper a criticism of the law requiring merchants to keep the sidewalks bare in the uptown district I speak for the hundreds of mothers who are obliged to push baby cutters, and surely the disadvantage to them can not possibly be offset by the beneâ€" fit, whatever it may be, to the public in general. And after all what shopâ€" per is more valuable or important to the merchants than the mother of a family and mistress of a home? Let me venture to say that if our good Chief of Police were foreed to make just one trip downtown, pushâ€" ing a husky baby in a sleigh, and, for example, had to mail a letter, shoyp around Rinn‘s and the iHHollinger, and make the inevitable eall at Woolâ€" worth‘s, he would go home with achâ€" ing arms and a firm resolve to c something about it at once. If the sidewalks were being kep example, had to mail a letter, shop around Rinn‘s and the iHollinger, and make the inevitable eall at Woolâ€" worth‘s, he would go home with achâ€" ing arms and a firm resolve to do something about it at once. If the sidewalks were being kept clear in residential sections too, as 18 the practice in southern towns, it would be possible to use carriages the year round, but in this climate where we have sleighing practically half the year, why make an exception of the busiest part of the town? If even a light strip of snow the width of a sleight could be left at the outer edge it would help considerably. As it is, the mother finds herself conâ€" fronted by an absolutely bare stretch of sidewalk, bounded on the outside by a high bank of snow, making it impossible to even turn out onto the street. Is it any wonder, that when she is faced with Christmas shopâ€" ping (an arduous task under any eirâ€" cumstances}) she shudders at the thought of the necessary trips up> town, and turns to the other alternaâ€" tive,â€"a comfortable chair in her own home, and a mail order ca talogue! Surely the merchants who . so strongly advocate shopping at home, will take steps to remedy this matâ€" ter at an early date. Thanking you I am, Yours very truly, ‘‘One of the (Editor‘s Note:â€"It is only fair to the authorities to say that the diffiâ€" Anitvy has_ hneen.lartely one of. misunâ€" the authorities to say TNnat UNRC GULLLâ€" | culty has been largely one of misunâ€" derstanding. In view of the disreâ€" gard show by some in previous years in regard to shovelling show from the walks, the police started out early this season to warn all merchants reâ€" carding the byâ€"law. Rightly or wrongly, the peopie in the business sections of the town took this to mean that no snow at all should be left on the walks. The matter was brought up at a recent council meetâ€" ing and Chief MeLachlan explained that all that was desired was a reaâ€" sonable observance of the byâ€"law so that the streets of the town would be properly passable. It might be well if the understanding could go further than this, and the practice be adopted of leaving just enough snow on the walks for the running of baby eutters Apart from the fact that most people will agree that if anyone is to be inâ€" convenienced it should not be the mothers, there is the important busiâ€" ness consideration pointed out by the letter. _ The Advance believes that the benefit of the mothers in this case should tbe a first consideration, and that the police, the council â€"and the merchants will take a similar view.) PROFESSORS IN TORONTO UNIVERSITY LOSK $50,000 (The Toronto Star) The attorneyâ€"general has been tellâ€" ing The Northern Miner how easily people of more tha average intelliâ€" gence swallow baits of stock promoter fishermen and as the poet saith:â€" ‘tis, ‘tis true.‘" ; If is beginâ€" ning to get around town that a lightâ€" fingered financial gentleman recently lifted over $50,000 from intelligent professors of Toronto University.

The news soon spread and the other fish mobbed him to take their money. â€" If university professors get taken in like this how much more the widows and orphans and unsoâ€" phisticated man in the street? â€" As the Miner says: *‘ Fish h,te without even seeing the hlnherman Changes in the provineial police ree in this district are to be made this week.
