Neame then gave an inspiring address, delivered in his own inimitable way, his eloquente and eviâ€" dent sincerity compelling the interest of the aqudience, and rousing the enâ€" thusiasm and optimism in the future of the â€"Eegion and its auxilaryâ€"the ladies‘ branchâ€"in this district. (Mr. Neame said :â€"Comradesâ€"‘‘I am not going to inflict a long speech upon you, but as this is our first monthly general meeting since the annual election of officers I think it is an opportune time for us to look back upon the past twelve months‘ growth and work acâ€" complished, ‘by our branch. I think we may congratulate ourselves on the increase of membership from about seventy to approximately one hunâ€" dred and seventy paidâ€"up members toâ€"day. The relief work that has been accomplished has been of considerable value to our members that have been in need; we would liked to have done more, but the most acute cases that came before us were all given help to the best of our ability. . The relief funds from the Poppy Day Campaign kave been expended carefully, and are now nearly at an end. Having this in mind, it has been decided to hold another draw, with prizes of excellent value, the proceeds of this draw to be devoted to our Relief Fund. I may the jobâ€"and Timmins is to be congraâ€" tulated in that also. Commenting on the London, England, men who activeâ€" ly identify themselves with the Legion as members, Mr. F. J. Bradley in an able and humorous way delighted the gathering. with an aneedote relating to his coming into contact whilst servâ€" ing overseas with several London units, and gave personal evidence of their courage and tenacity in trying cireumstances. Mr. Bradley is undeâ€" niably entitled to speak on that subâ€" ject, as witness his splendid military record. In a general discussion with referâ€" ence to the Vimy Banquet, some effecâ€" tive speaking was heard from Comâ€" rades D. Maxwell, iP. N. S. Craik, etc., and after thoroughly discussing the matter, it was proposed by Comrade say that no member of the Legion who has been in need of relief has been turned empty away. _ Employâ€" ment has been found for numerous men who have applied to he Legion for help in securing the same. â€" From time to time you have seen in the press the names of:new members that are joining up with this ‘branch; you have seen the names of honorary members that are glad to be associated with us, and I think this Branch may congratulate themselves on the numâ€" bers and the calibre of the men who are joining up, and also on the work of the Branch during the past year. We are fortunate in having Dr. Porâ€" ter as district medicalnofficer in sucâ€" cession to Dr. J. E. Barry, M.C., both of these gentlemen takmg a keen inâ€" terest in the welfare of the sick and disabled exâ€"service men, and both of whom have ‘been very successful in getting cases taken up by the D.S. LIMMINS, ONTARIO In a short commentary, Comrade F. J.. Bradley pointed that we in this branch of the Legion were fortunate in possessing in the chief of policeâ€" Comrade Lewis McLauchlanâ€"some one to lock us up when necessary, and in Drs. Harrison, Porter, Kinsman, Cameronâ€"Smith, Russell, etc., some one to ‘heal us when sick.,. And Comâ€" rades Roy E. Dew and J. A. Macdonâ€" ald should assure us of a proper burial when, as sometimes does happen, an old sqldier dies. But, alas and alack, we had no oné to pray for us. In reply, the seeretaryâ€"treasurer stated that the Rév. Ivan E. Kennedy would probably in the near future become one of us, and also the Rev. Fr. 0‘â€" Gorman had stated at the last smoker his intention to obtain his transfer from the Cobalt branch to us. It was decided to remind these two gentleâ€" men of our lack of spirtualâ€" members, and whose addition to our ranks would be of great help to us. The hearty singing of ‘"God Save the King‘‘ brought a most successful meeting to a .closeâ€"successful not only in a monetary sense, but also in the number and quality of new memâ€" bers enrolled, and the new spirit put into us when listening to the chairâ€" man‘s eloquent and convincing speech. C.R. There is one thing that I feel the Timmins Post should be criticized for, and that is the lack of interest taken in the Ladies‘ Auxiliary. We have a small number of ladies organâ€" ized in Schumacher, but there is pracâ€" tically no organization in Timmins. This should not be. To those of us that have had experience of the real value a ladies‘ auxliary is to a branch, we know that a strong auxiliary is half the making of a branch,. We want to ‘coâ€"operate more with the Auxiliary, and endeavour to form a Timmins branch. With this éend in view, I would propose that we shouldl have a ‘‘getâ€"together‘‘ meeting, in the near future, in the form of a card party, followed by dancing, for exâ€"service men, their wives and fami-l llies only, where we can meet each other and get acquainted. And. in conclusion, let me ask every man here, to make a personal effort to bring in at least one new member by our next monthly meeting, on April 13th. This branch is not in the experimental stage now, it is a live branch funcâ€" tioning in the interest of exâ€"service men, so let us all endeavour to make it a bigger and better ‘branch still.‘" Mr. Austin E. Neame‘s eloquence greatly impresséd all present, and there can be no doubt that soon we shall reap the benefit of his earnest appeal. Comrade A. J. T. Pearce! also reâ€" gretted the lack of interest at present displayed in the Ladies‘ Auxiliary, and it was the general opinion of the meeting that immediate steps should be taken to help the. Ladies ‘of the Auxiliaryâ€"who have given their time and services so willingly to this cause.

(From The Mail Empire) \Altogether, it is estimated that probably 150 claims have been located in the vicinity of this operation on the north rim of the Serpent River Basin.

A complete camp, minâ€" ing plant and twoâ€"drill compressor have been erected, and operations are now in full swing on the claim adjoining the Kingâ€"Bridge disâ€" covery.
