The best way to assure independence liter in life is to start making proâ€" vision for it now. Established 1871 Not the tongue in your shoe, nor the tongue in the lowly wagon, but the tongue in your mouth is the thing i want to talk about. The human tongue starts more trouble than friends or finance can stop. It is the tool that can do more harm in a day than you can correct in many years. Lincoln said little, and Grant less; Washingâ€" ton talked only when necessary, and Coolidge is as silent as a steam calliope with a broken boiler. The more men talk the less time they have to thini, and the less time others have to think If you are a great talker, you are not a great thinker. Listen to yourself, and get your own weights and meab- ures.â€"The Silent Partner. "Mr. Doug. Brown, a former New Lisâ€" keard resident and now of Timmins, made a splendid showing in the athâ€" letic events on Saturday at the New Liskeard Fair. Doug. ran away with five firsts and incidentally the chamâ€" pionship medal. Bill Alton, also of Timmins and formerly of New Liskeard made a good showing. Percy White copped most of the prizes that came to New Liskeard." TEVMMINS ATHLETES DO WELL AT NEW LISKEARD EVEXNXT The New Liskeard Speaker last week says : â€" TIMMINS BRANCH John L.

Toronto, Ontario.â€"The Ontario Forâ€" ist Patrol Air Force has completed 5,â€" 200 flying hours this year in forest fire protection and in mapping forest areas. This exceeds the total fiying done in 1927, until now the record 7ear. The Forest Patrol Air Forces is orâ€" ;anized, not to fight other nations, but T Oe e NPCY Man first cut the chains of distancefi when he made cloth for sails Paper was discovered as another step upward. The aeroplane today rises on cellulose ‘ in the wings, Esselen said, while other derivatives of cellulose have further advanced civilization. Esselen traced the advancement of civilization, linking each phase of its evolution with newly found usages for cellulose. Because so many ~artificially made commodities can be found in wood pulp, Dr. Wendt believes use of wood for structural purposes should end. The day for wool fuel is past and for buildâ€" ing purposes many other materials are available. Synthetic houses were foreâ€" cast, with composition walls, lacquer finished; draperies of wood, and furniâ€" ture and floors which appear to be wood but are not. The authorities for these announceâ€" ments were Gustavus J. Esselen, a conâ€" sulting engineer of Boston, and Dr. G. L. Wendt, dean of chemistry and phyâ€" sics at Pennsylvania State College, both speakers before theiInstitute of Amerâ€" ican Chemical Society at Northwestern University. Dr. Wendt said that the girl today may cheaply attire herself in garments that only a queen could afford before the beaker and the bunsen burner showed science the short cut to artiâ€" ficial silk. As Mother Eve plucked her first atâ€" tire from the forest, modern woman may also take her garb from the woodâ€" land. Synthetic silk produced from wool is common, women‘s shoes of artificial are available, and even hats and cloaks are pulp ptoducts, All because chemistry found that the uses of celluloseâ€"an important element of plant lifeâ€"are almost limitless. Gold Nugget Rebeékah Lodge, Timâ€" mins, noted for the enjoyable social events they provide, announce a euchre and dance to be given under their auspices in the 1.0.0.F. hall, on Thursâ€" day evening, October 4th.

Onâ€" tario produced 85 per cent. of this, ,Brmsh Columbia to the value of S$1,â€" 975,9790, and Quebec, from the Noranda smelter $520,475. Ontario and British Columbia are the great mineral producing provinces of the Dominion as in 1927 the former produced 36.38 per cent. of the total, and the latter 24.58. Nova Scotia was responsible for 12.17, Alberta for 11.85, and Quebec for 11.67. With the minâ€" eral development in progress in the Northern territory of Quebec, Maniâ€" toba and Saskatchewan, these proâ€" vinces will soon be more important in Dominion production. The production of all metals except arsenic, silver and piatinum was greatâ€" er this year than last. First in nickel, first in asbestos, first in cobalt, third in gold, third in silver, fourth in lead, fourth in copper, and sixth in zinc, is the place Canada has attained in the world‘s mineral proâ€" duction. . Nickel, asbestos and cobalt are not challenged, while Canada in the next five years will assume greater world importance in the production of gold, copper, lead and zinc. During the last year, copper production increased so that Canada obtained fourth place, instead of fifth as previously. South Africa, the United States and Canada are the order of the great gold producing countries, and with increasâ€" ed Canadian yields, and decreases in the United State, Canada will soon be in second place. The Bureau‘s report isâ€"a pamphlet in 20 pages and copies may be obtained, free of charge, on application to the Dominion Bureau of Statistics at Otâ€" tawa. Coal was the chief product in the fuels and nonâ€"metallic mineral field. Other nonâ€"metals of importance beâ€" sides petroleum and natural gas were asbestos, gypsum, salt, quartz, feldâ€" spar, magnesite, tale and soapstone. Many other minerals were produced in less amounts as, for example, actinâ€" olite, barytes, bituminous sands, diatoâ€" mite, garnets, granhite, mica, mineral waters, natro alunite, phosphate, pyrites, sodium carbonate and sulphate, volâ€" canic dust and silica brick. Employment in the mining industry during the period ranged about 7 per cent. higher this year than last and in metal mining and nonâ€"metal mining the improvement was in the neighâ€" bourhood of 15 per cent. over the reâ€" cords for the first half of last year. Gold, copper, nickel, lead, silver and zinc were the principal metals but in addition to these there were outouts of ~cadmium (reported for the first time), arsenic, bismuth, cobalt, iron ore, platinum, palladium and rhodium. Official statistics on Canada‘s minâ€" eral production for the halfâ€"year endâ€" ing June 30, 1928, just released by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics at Otâ€" tawa, show a continuance of the prosâ€" perous conditions prevailed throughout 1927. Records for 1927 set new high marks in the production of gold, copper, lead and zinc, coal, cement, lime and gypsum. During the halfâ€"year ending June 30, 1928, the value of metals and nonâ€"metals proâ€" duced from Canadian ores at $105,631,â€" 571 surpassed the recorded output value for the first half of 1927 by nearly 7 million dollars.

At the present time, however, the fire hazard in all sections of the North has practically vanished. According to departmental officials, small fires may break out any time, but nothing of a serious nature is anticipated. The paâ€" trol staff has been taken off, and the only employees in the woods now are those engaged on the tower and teleâ€" phone improvement work. This Cairn‘sâ€"Lake fire was first spotâ€" ted on May 23rd, and before it burned itself out it had destroyed 30,000 arces of spruce and jackpine. So far north was it located that the forestâ€"fire fightâ€" ersâ€"both land and aerial forcesâ€"could just barely reach it, and that was all. Had they been able to employ the usual suppressign equipment, the acreage burned undoubtedly would have been far less. The three bggest bush fires suffered by the Province this year all occurred in and around, and north of the Red Lake field. Two great fires occurred north of Tavorable Lake, but inasmuch as they were beyond the cruising radius of the fiying service, the department has no definite idea of the timber loss. and no report will be available until later in the year. These fires, as with the Cairn‘s Lake affair, grew out of a unusual spring fire hazard. ONTARIO‘S FOREST FRE L0SS GREATER THAN 1927 Preliminary reports to the Depaftâ€" ment of Forestry indicate that Onâ€" tario‘s forest fire gss this year will be much more than that of last year. In fact, one fire around Cairn‘s Lake, in the District of Patricia, laid waste more timber acreage this year than all the bush fires in the Province in 1927. Forest Fires This Year Chiefly in the Patricia and Red Lake Areas. Danger Now From Forest Fires Seems Over for the Year. "In our issue of the Speaker of the 14th of June we published a list of Mr. Woollings‘ collection of ancient coins, curios, antiques, ect., over seventy in number, and said he had been collectâ€" ing these curiosities for several years. We might also have said he and Mrs. Woollings finally travelled nearly the world over to finish the collection. In the same issue we asked Mr. Woolings to put his collection on exhibition at our fair. This he was kind enough to do and it is needless to say that during the three days of the fair many persons saw the exhibit. Most of the time there was a jam in front of the exhibits and all the time Mr. and Mrs. Woollings patiently explained particuâ€" lars concerning the more rare and valuable articles. In this way citizens of Temiskaming were able to see and have explained to them curios which people travel long distances and at great expense to see. "A beautifully handâ€"carved Japanese Table, with four chairs to match, is very highly prized. One could not but The New Liskeard Speaker makes the following appropriate reference to the rare collection of oddities owned by Mr. Thos. Woolings, of Englehart.
