In a word, he would like to enter the freight dog race for the sport of the thing, but he is ready to see the attitude of others in the matâ€" ter. It is only fair to say that on March 10th, he entered the freight race he did not j have any idea he would be among the winners. He finished the race "Men are like figures;they acquire their value fifmg:har pozfiz?x.u” Druggists and Stationers for . â€"â€"Napoleosn The value of your life runs up into tens of thousands of dollars and depends altogethâ€" er on your position.

Apparently, the ‘smiling‘‘ was due to a cheerful disposition, and to The Advance his whole attitude suggests good sportsmanship. . The Advance believes that it would be a pity, indeed, if the rules of the race should debar the entry of good sports like this lad. Here is his cheerful letter:â€" To the Editor of The Poreupine Advance. Dear Sir:â€"In reference to Mr. Purnis‘ letter of last week in your paper, and being one of the contestâ€" ants in the freight race, I certainly agree with him that the difference made by those who ran behind their two hundred pounds dead weight had less chance of winning than the two contestants, who rode. Of eourse, in some cases, it was due to shortage of wind, as he stated but this could have been remedied, if the respective drivers so affiicted would get somebody else to drive their dogs and the owners sit in the sleigh as dead weights. Then there would be more fun and excitement for everyâ€" body. As T amjone of tha contestants that ' rode, and carried a "hie â€" stick,"" and had use of my limbs to help my' dogs over the bare spots, I‘ll agree with Mr. Purnis that I should have‘ won, but the fiet is, my ‘‘big was nothing but a ordinary cane that: I am obliged to_ use for everyday purposeâ€"as for my limbs being capâ€" able of aiding my dogs, that is quite impossible; my motions are slow and difficult in moving off and on the sleigh, and quite contrary to the speed required in a race, but here let me mention the fact that there were very few bare spots on the road for the freight race to contend with, and I never struck oneâ€"so. it must be plain that my limbs werd in constant use. a The race committee certainly deâ€" serve credit for allowing the disabled to participate in the races and yet in a way, it is not fair to see "the drivâ€" er that sits upon the sleigh come in smiling,‘‘ showing little or. no sign of the struggle to win, while the @dead weight pushers,‘‘ come in panting, pale and haggered, ready to drop. * . ® "» ul cA A _ 2s s eA s o Mn > THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO AA iJ $2 e It is far beyond me to give you Treâ€" medy for this important problem beâ€" cause I should like to participate in the race next year, but in all events.

Disâ€" tances are not so great and roads are such that a fleet of autos can convey their fans to any of ithe centres of play. The noise of the tiny band of Porecupine followers, noted for their ability to root, has been only a mere squeak in comparison with the ovaâ€" tion from thousands of throats which have greeted ithe Lakesiders, but in every game the work of the sturdy little Northerners has won them the applause of practically every neutral fan in the rink before the closing period. In the first game at the Toronto arena on Saturda), Thornton seemed nervous for the first period but has held the fort wonderfully since starâ€" ring in the finals last night, when he blanked the Colbornes. Murray has been very spectacular throughout. We heard an exâ€"player state last night it was worth the adâ€" mission to see his defence work alone. In the first game Jemmett was bounced around like a rubber ball by the heavy opponents but knew their tricks by Monday and also ylayed a stellar game last night. > Spence has won the heart of every fan,. ‘We heard a sporting editor of good experience repeat again and aâ€" cain at the Niagara game, ‘‘*That boy can use his head as well as skate.‘"‘ When overtime started at Niagara Falls it was great amusement to the crowd to see Thornton pack his rabâ€" bit‘s feet from goal to goal after each five minutes of play, and when he turned and fondly kissed them in the longâ€"drayâ€"out suspense of the overâ€" time, the packed arena howled with amusement. | 2 T 2 2. 0 dsc th ts The arena got so warm that ladies watched the game with fur coats reâ€" moved and in practically decollette costumes. Even the artificial ice got soft and sticky. Spence seemed to stand the strain better than any one in the longâ€"drawnâ€"out: deadlock which Peninsular inhabitants told us broke Pete Kilpatrick‘s heart. He is the father of Port hockey, we were told, a strong player and the fans kept shouting ‘©‘One more goal and we‘ll bring home the bacon.‘" It was hot enough to cook the bacon. Cain and Murray wouldn‘t let him pass, the was heavy and Pete avas fat. we, /7 8. 5.4 T He went off the ice with his head and shoulders drooped so dejectedly that we felt sorry for him. He seemed to take the Niagara Falls tie more to heart han the real defeat of Wedâ€" nesday, but lhe tried this powerfni rushes gamely to ithe end, only to be pushed to the corner by Cain or Murâ€" ray. * Nixon, the fastest man of the tea with true sporting spirit waited to shake hands with what â€" Porcupine boys had not gone off the ice by the time he reached the gate.

Buckley‘s Mixture For Sale by Sish T21 The concert given under the ausâ€" pices of the St. John Ambulance Brigade in the Goldfields theatre.on Sunday evening last after the church services proved popular and appreâ€" ciated. There was a good attendance | and the audience enjoyed every numâ€" ber on the programme. The proâ€" gramme was provided by talented local artists and the selections given. were all of special merit. The .pl‘n-i gramme was varied and attractive, and included voeal and instrumental numbers. Pianoforte duets Miss: Payne and Mr. Shone won .especial approval, receiving very pronounced encore, and deserving the same. Equal appreciation was shown for the pianoforte solo by Mr. Shone who was very heartily encored for his talented work at the piano. The singâ€" ing of Miss Mills was another special feature, the solos by this gifted vocalâ€" ist being greatly appreciated. Miss Mills was encored at each appearâ€" ance and won this mark of approval by merit. The vocal quartettes by "The Four Jacks‘‘ as usual delightâ€" ed the audience. â€" These Cornish singâ€" ers,â€"Messrs Street, Snow, Rice and Mayor,â€"never fail to please by their attractive quartette work. The violin solos by Mr. Wilkins were a delight to the musicâ€"lovers present. _ Mrs, Wilâ€" kins played the piano accompaniments for these numbers as well as for the Four Jacks. Mr. Geo., Hale was the accompanist at the piano for Miss Mills. Another very popular feature of the concert Sunday evening was the whistling solo work by Master Lucas, whose talented rendition of a number of selections pleased all. BACKUS INTERESTS IN RAILWAY FOR RED LAKE A railway from Kenora to the Red: Lake district is projected by Kenora intersts,which include The Kenora Paper Mills Limited. The .approval of the legislature fs necessary and this is being sought by the Kenora member, through the medium of a private ‘bill, to incorporaite a comâ€" pany to be known as The Kenora and Red Lake Railway Company. . Direcâ€" tors named in the bill are E. W. Backus, S. W. Backus, Geo. MceLean and Donald MeLeod. Capitalization P W y W V is set at $5,000,000. It is stated that while the primary object of the railâ€" way will be providing railway service for the gold fields, it will also serve to open up twenty townships for setâ€" tlement and make available a large quantity of spruce and poplar for pulp mill use. DEAN HOWE URGES PUBLIC COâ€"OPERATION IN FORESTRY Dr.C. D. Howe, Dean of the Faculâ€" ty of Forestry, University of Toronâ€" to, recently delivered a stirring lecâ€" ture in Fort William. He said that when the people of Ontario realized the great wealth that is going to waste annually and check up on the carelessness of all parties concerned, the work of the forests department will be on a large scope, able to cover more territory, and the wealth of the province will increase proportionateâ€" ly. He declared that to protect. the forests of toâ€"day the spirit of public opinion and the coâ€"operation of all was desired. Tourists as well as others should be made to secure a perâ€" mit before entering a forest. _ It would give the ranger a chance to fix the cause of any fire that happened in a particular district. The debris lefi from logging operations forms a great start and fire prevention work should be the byâ€"word of the people rather than fighting the demon after it is wellâ€"nigh out of control. ' Mrs. Andrew Jonasen, who had been a resident of Haileybury for over 18 years, died last week in her 65th year. She had been in poor health for some four months, but her death came suddenly and unexpectedâ€" ly. A husband, one daughter and one son survive, as well as a number of grandchildren. Mr. W. H: Banner, of Montreal, was a Timmins visitor last week. In commenting on the O.H.A. games in the South last week, The New Lisâ€" keard Speaker says:â€"‘‘All congratuâ€" lations go to the boys from South Porcupine, who have covered themâ€" selves with glory even if they fail to stop the Kitchener semors. . But, here‘s hoping that they continue their good work and win further honors faor both themselves and the N.O.H.A." 46/ Third Avenue Private Entrance for ladies right next to Blahey‘s CLASSES FOR MINING _ PROSPECTORS A class for Mining Prospectors will be opened under the auspices of the Ontario Department of Mines, at Timmins, on Thursday, Apiril 5th, 1928, and will be continued for ewht days Morning sessions will be held in the Oddfellows Hall. _ Evening lectures will be given in the Central Public School.

Tobey, writing in Hygeia for February. Although milk is xeâ€" cognized as man‘s most valuable food, the cheese that is made from it is alâ€" most universally regarded as a condiâ€" ment. THOS. W. GIBSON, Deputy Minister of Mines Toronto, March 16th, 1928‘ 12â€"14â€"132 Practically all the valuable fat, proâ€" tein and minerals in milk are preservâ€" ed in cheese. Besides, it is rich in the vitamins that contribute to growth and strength. Our bread and rolls are made in complishee with "timeâ€"proved reâ€" cipes and no homeâ€"made loaf or roll can surpass our particular proâ€" duct. We use the best and purest ingredients and we bake just the right way. You can get our breads and rolls fresh every day. Form the habit of serving them and give the family all that they. care to eat. PERFECT BREAD AND ROLLS * There areâ€"about 400 known varieâ€" ties of cheese, made in a great variety of ways. Besides cow‘s milk, goat‘s, sheep‘s, buffalo‘s, llama‘s, zebra‘s and reindeer‘s milk are all used. aker B Third Ave, Four steps enter into the making of cheese,â€"First, the milk casein is conâ€" verted into eurd by means of rennet. Second, the whey is sepazated from the curd by heating. Next the ecurd is salted and compressed into the desirâ€" ed form. _ The final process is the "‘"ripening,‘‘ which takes weeks or months, according to the variety. Cheese may be served in every course of a meal. Cheese dishes such as Welsh rarebit, cheese fritter, cheese pancakes, cheese toast, cheese short cake and cheese soup are excellent, while with salads and desserts, cheose is always appetizing. â€" Summing it up, Mr. Tobey: says, ‘‘cheese is a help to health, which is th(* best that can be aid of any. food.‘ The next regular meeting Of the . town council is scheduled for Monâ€" day afternoon next, March 26th, at 4y.m.
