IN ANY CASE TOURISTS SHOULD SEE As MUCH OF THE NORTH AS POSSIBLE Mr. H. A. Preston is even more persistent than The Poreupine Advance. And as the purists would not say : ‘‘That is going some!‘‘ For the past two years Mr. Preston, in season and out of season, has been pointing out the need and the desirability for a belt line of roads in this North Land. His plan is to build three small strips of road necessary to complete a through road from Timmins to Sudbury. [With this Timminsâ€"Sudbury road built, there would be a belt line of roads. Tourists could come north by the Ferguson highway and return by the proposed belt line to Sudbury. Mr. Preston has urged the building at onee of this belt line because he is extremely anxious that tourist country to Canada, M Preston terms the would be opened of all. road maps to parties in the the Government TIMMINS, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, FEB. 2ND, 1928 hundred Ltere COuTn enly clinchin Field Marshall Earl Haig le in his busy lifeâ€"time.* Here England when people speak d Scout troops on one oceasion. spirit mean!‘‘ The engineer was killed and seven others hurt when the train carrying President Cosgrove of the Irish Free State and his party struck an improâ€" perly opened switch near Ottawa at noon on Monday. There is very wideâ€" spread regret at the unfortunate accident, because of the death and injury resulting, and also because of the danger thrust upon the distinguished visiâ€" bor and his party. At first it was feared that the open switch that caused the accident was due to deliberate design on the part of some politicallyâ€"inâ€" sane persons. Later investigations seem to disprove this theory and to sugâ€" vest that the tragie occurence was due to accident and the carelessness that en often eanses secidents:â€" President Cosgrove and the members of his party would link up Timmins and Sudbury so often causes accidents. President Cosgrove and the m« all escaped any injury when the train left the track.

Among the towns giving this evidence of the advance of civilization in this North were:â€"Timmins, Haileybury, Iroquois Falls, Englehart and North Bay. cation In the list of annual flowers suitable for this North Land as given by the Kapuskasing Experimental Farm in The Advance last week, there was one important omission. No mention was made of the pansy. The pansy is one of the charming flowers that seem to specially thrive in this North Land. Last year was a wonderful one for pansies in Timmins, the flowers being noteworthy for size and colouring. _A settler near Timmins has pansies growâ€" ing over a field near his house.

Another nomination day has been named to secure candidates to fill the two vacancies on the town council board. This is the third attempt to proâ€" vide a complete council for the town and it is sincerely to be hoped that this third effort will be successful. While the mayor and the four members of the council elected at the regular yearly nominations have been carrying on the work of the municipality with capability and despatch, the work on individual members of the board would be lessened and custom more closely. followed by the filling of the two vacancies. This year‘s council will not have so difficult a year as the council of 1927, but still there will be much work and anxiety for them, and the people should show support and coâ€"operation by completing the council board and thus opening the way for the work of the year to proceed smoothly and fairly. The Ontario Government will no doubt give full consideration to the resoâ€" lutions passed by the representatives of North Land municipalities at the conference with the Government representive at North Bay this week. The proposal in regard to the Province providing for all indigents from unorganâ€" ized districts is especially worthy of attention. As The Advance has repeatâ€" edly pointed out it is unjust indeed to saddle the expense of indigents from unorganized territory upon any organized municipality where they may wanâ€" der when ill or about to die. The Government is â€"the only organization derivâ€" ing revenue from the unorganized territory and so should assume the responâ€" sibility for the indigents from what may be termed its own particular doâ€" main. The Government already recognizes the principle in regard to ind iâ€" vents suffering from tubereulosis. The Dominion Government accepts full resnponsibility for all indigents from its unorganized territory. responsibility for A writer in The Toronto Globe, signing the pen name of ‘‘Seotch Woman,‘"‘| _ $50 per month to anyone applying at onee.

Mr. Finlayson has suggested that the motto this part of the North Land is to be ‘‘curtailed exper motto would be : ‘‘Money well invested."‘ A heated discussion is in progress in the province toâ€"day as to whether or not corporal punishment of children should be abolished in the schools and home. There are cases where it would appear to be better to extend it to some parents and others in authority who are wantonly neglecting their duties toward the children. Where do all the Sceottish stories come from? This is a a correspondent. There are factories in Aberdeen and many also may be traced back to Mr. W. MeHugh, S:1 vbout themselve The Provincial legislation opens at Toronto next week. Two questions that might well engage the attention of the House are the providing of a belt line of roads for the North Land, and the passing of the necessary legislation to preserve the deer in this country. The belt line of roads would more than double the attraction of the North Land for tourists. It would mean money well invested and sure to give good returns. Reports from all over the North are to the efféct that the wolves are simply slaughtering the deer.
