What apâ€" neared to be quite an important gold peared to be quite an important gold find was made last Fall on this proâ€" perty located in Turnbull and Godâ€" frey Townships. â€" High assay values were obtained from straight iron sulâ€" phides along a strong break which is said to have been uncovered for some 300 feet. Further on a zine deposit on the property is also contemplated. The company is eapitalized at $300,â€" 000, with shares of $1 par value. Of these about 120,000 shares are said to be still in the treasury. The directors are as follows: J. P. MceLaughlin, preâ€" sident, with A. R. Globe, F. J. Crawâ€" ford, J. R. Gordon and T. L. Hastings. The property is in charge of Robert Edlestone.‘‘ â€"Top Quality by called to Section 15, Subsection (1) of the Mining Tax COCHKRANE DISTRICT Township of Beatty sA A,â€" Conr 22. ..

The plans for the play ‘There Live Ghosts‘‘ are going on nicely. This, the first effort of the Legion Concert Party, will be in all probability one of the outstanding features on the entertainment side of the activities of this Post. Certain it is that under the capable and experâ€" ienced direction of Mr. J. A. Macâ€" Donald we shall not be handicapped by lack of knowledge in this particuâ€" lar line, and I am optimistic enough to predict that when this play is staged we shall seore a distin‘ct success. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Our relief fund is dwindling, and so we welcome a small and entirely unâ€" expected cheque from the Timmins Golden Chapter, I. 0. D. E.,â€"this beâ€" ing half the procéeds of money colâ€" lected since Tag Day. This is the first contribution to our relief fund this year, and doubly welcome coming from the source it did. How many legionnaires know the motto of the LO.D.E.? â€" Before giving you their motto, I will tell of an instance conâ€" cerning a Timmins veteran, now A member of this Post, that coccurred in family of seven bad to live on was the small pension of approximately six dollars a week. â€" Tramping the streets of Toronto day after day in a fruitâ€" less search for work, this man was Che Canabian Lengton in Cinmins THOS.

Although no effort had been made to secure relief, in some manner the I1.0.D.E. in Toronto| became aware of this ease.â€"The motto] of the 1.O.D.E. is ‘‘Deeds will prove our worth."‘ We regret to hear of the illness of the Secretary of the Ontario Proâ€" vincial Command, Canadian Legion, British Empire Service Leagueâ€"Mr. A. Shields. It will be recalled that Mr. Shields journeyed from Toronto' to Timmins last year to attend the Vimy Banquet held in the Empire Hotel, and many will remember the splendid speech he made on that ocâ€" casion. _ We extend to Mr. Shields our sincere hope for an early and complete recovery. Having touched on the Vimy Banâ€" quet of last year, I should like to mention that Mr. Geo. E. Cole, who in large measure was responsible for the success of that memorable banâ€" quet, is again interesting himself with this year‘s Vimy Day celebrations. In addition to Mr. Cole, the Banquet committee last year included Dr. A. 8. Porter, Dr. R. V. Weston, of Schuâ€" macher; Mr. W. F. Morgan, Mr. J. G. Harris, Mr. Hamilton and Mr. W. A. Devine. It is to be hoped that we can secure again the services of that ideal committee, whose experience of last year will be of value, and would enâ€" us to keep the banquet as orderly and wellâ€"conducted as in 1927. I beg to acknowledge with thanks the letter received from Mr. Thomas Huntley, of Poreupine, in which he conveys his wishes for the success of this Branch and of its members. Mr. Huntley evidently believes that this Post is O.K., having paid his dues Post is U.kK., having paird his dues| until well into 1929. The Timmins| Post, through the secretary, reciproâ€" cates the good wishes of Mr. T. Huntâ€" ley, and wish him all kinds of luck in the bush where I am given to underâ€" stand he is at present.‘‘ ‘*Old soldiers never die‘‘ and so I believe I am right in saying that there are in this Post a few veterans of the South African War. Those veterans] will in all probability remember the saying that was popular at that time â€"The Absentâ€"minded Beggarsâ€"a sloâ€" gan that was put to music and also used by various organizations to raise funds for charitable causes in connecâ€" tion with the troops engaged in that particular war. And so I was more than delighted to receive from one of them last week a letter assuring me of his continued interest in the Legion in spite of the fact that owing to pres | J sure of other work he was unable to attend meetings as regularly as he would like to, the said letter also conâ€" taining his dues to date. _ Including this veteran of Schumacher as menâ€" tioned above, there are to my knowâ€" ledge two others in this Post who were in South Africa in the early days of that war, when things were bad, and everyone too busy to devote much time to "tickey nap.‘‘ Amongst these three there are divided eighteen ‘*gongs"‘‘ ~({no A.T.A. or. canteen medals included); all three of them served during this war, and all three were ‘\W.O.‘s eventually. These men areâ€"no, wild horses would not drag the names from me. Time flies, yet it _does not, looking backward, seem such a long time as 28 years ago that in the British Empire such names as Modder River, Magersfontein, Colenso, Spion Kop, Ladysmith, Kimberley, Mafeking, ete., were in common and everyday use as were YÂ¥pres, the Somme, Vimy Ridge, etce., in the last war. Mr. Austin E. Neame, whose transâ€" fer has been delayed through the illâ€" ness of the Post Secretary of Niagara Falls, will join here immediately withâ€" out waiting transfer. I take this opâ€" portunity of sincerely thanking Mr. Neame for his personal message of congratulation to me on my work as secretary, but really and truly the Post is under a great deal of gratitude to Mr. Neame, and for two reasons, the first of which that he was the prime mover in getting this Branch started, and the second (and to my mind, the most important) reason is that ‘by his public work for the good of this community Mr. Neame has set a splendid example to us in carrying out, not only to the letter, but in the spirit, that paragraph in our constiâ€" tution which reads:â€"7. To foster loyalty among the public and educaâ€" tion in the principles of patriotism, duty and unstinted public service. The president and officers of this post are earnestly anxious to secure a good attendance at our annual general meeting in the town hall, Timâ€" mins, on Friday, February 10th, at 8.00 p.m., at which the election of officers for the year takes place. Please bring your ballot sheets, or if you cannot attend, send them to the secretary, Box 1716, Timmins, in time for the meeting. There are encouraging signs (by the payment of dues) that the severe epiâ€" demic of pocket paralysis is subsiding, but even yet there are a number of members in arrear. â€" Exchange being no robbery, I send to those members in arrear my sympathy in exchange for their dollars.â€"What can be fairer? â€"Thomas FPellows There are people w armament Conferene ed to make Seotland vines.â€"London Publ pipes w ho nould ve up Opini 311 MINING INDUSTRY MADE PROGRESS IN ALL PARTS ‘*During the year 1927 the mining industry made progress in every proâ€" vince of the Dominion,"‘ says J. L. Agnew, president of the Canadian Inâ€" stitute of Mining and Metallurgy, in an article in the January issue of Inâ€" dustrial Canada. *‘*‘Recent discoverâ€" ies of zine and copper in the Gaspe Peninsula have attracted attention to that sparsely settled territory. _ The steady progress made in Quebee and Northern Ontario has drawn the atâ€" tention of mining men and investors ffom all parts of the world. Maniâ€" toba and Saskatchewan are now pracâ€" tically assured of at least three minâ€" ing operations of major proportions, while Alberta and British Columbia both report the largest production of mineral products in their history. What all this development and proâ€" gress means to Canada may be easily realized we state that the nickel mines of Sudbury and the gold mines of Kirkland Lake and Poreupine alone purchase and consume annually upâ€" ward of $15,000,000 worth of ordinary supplies, such as coal, coke, chemicals, drill steel, explosives, pipes and fitâ€" tings and machinery. This figure is exclusive of wages and salaries disâ€" bursed to employees. It is estimated that the total distribution of money by the mining industry of Northern Ontario as a whole amounts to $40,â€" 000,000 anually, when we include the expenditures on nonâ€"producing proâ€" ducing properties."‘ Perhaps we have indigestion beâ€" cause there is more thought for food than food for thought.â€"The Sailor. n."....“.‘.’.‘...... 5sn is 282 2P n e " 046 24,% Dinetestectoatecte se 2e se o6 ¢4,t ® * * ..00‘0.....0‘0.9..0...'0'.. ....0.‘............... »o_ew oo t4 +4, 4440 4+40,04 ‘000010»00000000»000000000000000000000000000000000ooooooobooooooozo000000000000000000000000000900000.
