A reader of The Advance sends in the following clipping which he "thinks is good enough to be published in The Adâ€" vance." The compliment implied is apâ€" preciated, for this beautiful song, "Friend O‘ Mine," has achieved wide popularity and is an expressive little poem that makes particular appeal to all for whom, friend is an inspu'atwn wWhen you are happy, friend 0‘ mine, THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Halifax Herald:â€"That menace of the highways the "hitâ€"andâ€"run" driver, continues his reckless and deathâ€"dealâ€" ing career. This is one of the most serious phases of a grave and growing problem, demanding not only the full weight of the law, but the earnest coâ€" operation of the public for its solution. "A live porcupine captured om Tuesâ€" day on one of Haileybury‘s downtown streets will have a career in the "movies." The animal strayed into town, probably from the West Road, and was caught by Milt. Austin withâ€" out much trouble. Mr. Austin was reâ€" turning to his store when he saw the animal as he came down Broadway street, and with the help of some others, he drove "porky‘" down to the rear of the Royal Bank, where a box was thrown over him and the cavture made. The porcupine was sent down to Kippawa, where Fred. Arnott is enâ€" gaged in the making of pictures of life in the wilds and it is expected that the film will eventually be shown here." It is a big change from Haileybury to the "movies," yet that is the change to be endured by a North Land porcupine. Since the Porcupine camp has grown and devolped, porcupines are very selâ€" dom seen here, and whem noticed are usually in the undeveloped areas. A porcupine might feel at home in Hailâ€" eybury but the "movies‘" will likely prove rather strenuous and hectic for the bristly little fellow: Im referring to the porcupine that is to go into the movies, The Haileyburian says:â€" PORCUPINE GRADUATES FROM HAILEYBURY TO THE MOVIES The Northern News last week says: "Palmer‘s Shows after spending a week in Kirkland Lake, leftf last Sunday for Rouyn, :from which town they will make a long jump to Sault Ste Marie. There is a permanent staff. of 36 peoâ€" ple with the show. While in Kirkland Lake, despite somewhat unpleasant weather on several days, they did, it is understood very satisfactory business. The shows were well conducted and no complaints of any kind were registered. On Friday night, one of the big tents was damaged by acid to the extent of about $25. The matter was reported to the police but little could be done, as the culprit had left no trace behind him. Suspicions, however, pointed to the act being that of a man who had been refused permission to operate a game in connection with the show. It is understood that when he was refusâ€" ed the permission, he declared that he would get back at the proprietor." "The bride‘s gift to the groom was a tie pin with a diamond setting, the groom‘s gift to the bride was a check, to the bridesmaid book ends, to the groomsmai:t a smoker stand, and to the pianist FPrench kid gloves. The bride and groont were the recipients of many beautiful anid substantial gifts, includâ€" ing checks and silverware. The bride was a popular young lady and had many friends here and elsewhere, havyâ€" ing taught school during the past year at Timmins. Previous to that she taught school near Cobden and also at Madawaska and at Massey. The groom is also well known here and is held in high esteem." ACID THROWN ON. ONE OF THE TENTS OF THE PALMER SHOWS "Later in the afternoon the newly married couple left by motor for Deâ€" troit, where ~they will reside. The bride‘s travelling attire was a powder blue fiat crepe dress, grey coat of kasha cloth trimmed with grey fur, and she wore a felt hat. "The room was decorated in white, with yellow fiowers and ferns. After the ceremony dinner was served to the immediate relatives of the young couple. The table was decorated with gladioli. "The attendants were Miss Mabel Smith of Timmins, sister of the grooin, and Mr. Jack Arscott, also of Timmins. Miss Smith was prettily dressed in rose crepe romaine in pleated effect. "Given in marriage by her‘fatheor, the bride entered the room at the strains of the wedding march from Lohengrin, played by Mrs. D.â€"C. McFarlane, sister of the bride. She was lovely in a grey. crepe romaine gown and carrying a bouquet of yellow roses. "A pretty early autumn wedding tocf, place at the bride‘s parental home, Crawford street, Cobden, when Carrie E. Guest, younger daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. J. Guest, was united in marâ€" riage to Alfred E. Smith, of Detroit, son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Jos. Smith, of Cobden. Rev. E. D. Mitchell, of Vanâ€" kleek Hill, a former pastor of Grance United Church, Cobden, performed the ceremony, and was assisted by Rey. A. S. Cleland of Cobden. x | Pretty Wedding at Cobden of Interest to Friends Here Friends of the bride in Timmins will be interested in the following from The Cobden Sun, of Cobden, Ontario. The bride was on the staff of the Central public school from September of last year. Many friends here will join in extending best â€"wishes. The Cobden Sun says:â€" Am odd trick was played at Kirkland Lake on Thursday morning at an early hour. The lightning struck the town‘s fire alarm system, not only putting a whole section of the system out of business, but also turning in a regular alarm, to which a number of the fireâ€" men responded only to find that the lightnmning had turned in a false alarm. GHTNING RANG IN FIRE ALARM AT KIRKLAND LAKE Florence, Alabama, Herald:â€"The most provoking husband is one who talks, indistinctly in his sleep. In this North Land, with its long distances, and its special adaptability for the use of air services, everything in connection with air routes and air services should be of particular imâ€" portance. It is likely that before long the use of airships will be more or less largely adopted to give this counâ€" try a better and more speedy mail serâ€" vice, Mr. Venioct spoke of a strange coinâ€" cidence. In 1883 his father on a sealâ€" ing voyage to the Magdalen Islands deâ€" livered the first mail there, And in 1927, the son, as Postmasterâ€"General, inaugurated the first air mail service to those Islands. He pointed out that the testing of air routes was still going on. He thought that whem the regular service was established the charge would not be more than five cents an ounce on firstâ€"class matter throughout Canada and even into the United States. Hon. Mr. Venoit quoted facts and figures about the service and these should attention on postal matâ€" ters generally. Hon. Mr. Veniot emuohaâ€" sized the idea that the object of the postal service was never to place a cent of revenue in the Federal excheâ€" quer as a surplus, but to use up the moneys im giving better service to the country."" "That‘s why," he conâ€" tinued, "that we attempted a more rapid service by the introduction of the air mail.‘" In a very short time, according to Hon. Mr. Veniot, the air mail service between Montreal and Toronto would be regular one, and he also forecast air mail lines between Toronto and Buffalo. and between Montreal and Schenectady, speeding up the transalâ€" lantic mails delivered at New York. Even now a letter sent from Southampton on Saturday had been delivered in Toâ€" ronto on the midâ€"afternoon of the next Friday. "I feel," said the Postmasterâ€" General "that the business men are not taking the interest they should in the postal service, nor getting the beneâ€" fits that would be theirs if there was better interest." He pointed out that it was to the interests of all concerned that business and industry should make good use of the air mail service. "I‘m a sufficiently strong Canadian to feel that I should not allow the Yankees to outdo me in mail service,, Mr. Veniot declared. That mail might before long be carâ€" ried by airships throughout Canada at a rate not to exceed 5 cents per ounce, was one of the important items in the address of Hon. . JP. Veniot, Postmasâ€" terâ€"General for Canada, at one of the directors‘ luncheons in connection with the Canadian National Exhibition at Toronto last week. Hon. Mr. Veniot outlined the air service as it applies to mail matter in Canada and he urged the business men generally to take more advantage of the opportunities offered for speedy communication. speaking of developments in the serâ€" vice, he expressed the hope that in the near future there would be inaugurated a transâ€"Canada air mail service, cutâ€" ting in half the time of the present mail transportation. RATE FOR AIR MAIL MAY BE FIVE GENTS PER OUNCE Postmasterâ€"General Veniot Urges Business Men to Make More Generous Use of Air Mail Facilities.

H. White, District Passenger Agent, North Bay, Ont BAY Philadelphia Inquirer:â€"One reason bootlegging has been so success#ful is that, from the start, it has been conâ€" ducted on a cashâ€"andâ€"carry basis. "The fatality is being investigated by the authorities. An inquest was opened and adjourned until yesterday, August 29th.. Mr. W. Forget, father of the vicâ€" time, went north again on Tuesday to be present for the hearing. The widow, and children, of whom there are six, have returned to Haileybury and will make their home here for the present." Kirkland Lake, accoording to the stories brought here from that town, has an epidemic of the skin disease usually called "barber‘s itch." No less than seven cases are said to be in the town of Kirkland Lake. The authoriâ€" ties are understood to be of the opinion that the disease originated from the use of common towels in the rooming houses, hotels, etc., of the district. SEVEN CASES OF "BARBER‘sS ITCH" REPORTED AT KIRKLAND ULAKE "When Mr. Forget failed to arrive at his home an alarm was raised and search began, but it was not until morning that his body was found at the crossing. In the meantime it is stated that two trains had passed over the spot and the body was mangled into over one hundred pieces. It was only identified by a small lump on one ear and a slightly crooked finger on one hand which had been injured some time ago. "Particulars of the tragic death of Willie Forget in the North were brought by his father, who returned to Haileybury after attending the funeral. It was at a place called Loter, 28 miles west of Kapuskasing, that the fatality occurred. The victim had been living with is brother on a bush lot some three miles from the station and was returning late at night from a trip to Kapuskasing where he had gone in orâ€" der to secure another loi for hitnuself. The brothers were engaged in taking out pulpwood. The unfortunate man had left the train at the station and started to walk on the track towards his home, when, before he had gone beyond the outskirts of the village, he was struck at a crossing. He had about one and oneâ€"half miles to go on ‘the railway and a couple of miles through the woods. Reference was made last week in The Advance to the sad death near Kapuskasing of Willie Forget, formerâ€" ly of Haileybury. Further particulars of the fatality are given in The Haileyâ€" burian last week as follows:â€" Investigating Death of Haileybury Man in North GILLETT‘S FLAKE LYE REACHED ONLY VIA CANADIAN PACIFIC REACHED ONLY YVIA CANADIAN PACIFIC Sure You Get The Genurne
