The W.C.T.U. at a recent meeting suggested that the proâ€" vince of Ontario forbid the advertising of cigarettes in the newspapers. Such a plan would not be fair to anyone conâ€" cerned and it would be far from good sense. Advertising is the only means whereby manufacturers and dealers can inform the public of the merits of a particular article or brand. Stopping advertising is simply putting a premium on inferior articles. Merit in merchandise and superiority in service are established through judicious advertising and any measure that interferes with advertising is a costly injury to the public. Cigarettes are toâ€"day practically a necessity in this country. Some people may dislike to admit this, but the fact remains, proven by the demand. The world has come around to the belief that cigarettes are not only harmless in proper use, but that they are a comâ€" fort and a pleasure to millions toâ€"day. Advertising has imâ€" proved the public taste in cigarettes and on the principle that the better the cigarette the more enjoyment and the less harm, advertising should be encouraged rather than reâ€" stricted. It would be a crime for any Government to take a step that would give advantage to inferior cigarettes and build up a bootâ€"legging industry in this item of daily use. Advertising has done more than any one other single factor to build up a better grade of cigarette. The Ontario Goyvâ€" ernment has already created undesirable conditions by its restrictions in the province on newspaper advertising of liquors and of the profession of undertaking. The public suffers from all such restrictions. There are, of course, people who would legislate out of existence anything and everything that does not please their peculiar views. There is something to be said for regulations that will prevent misrenresentation and even bad taste in the matter of adâ€" The Ontario Government is considering the passing of legislation to rid the roads of old and rickety cars. It looks like a plan not likely to result in much advantage to the public and perhaps causing discrimination against men with little money to buy a car. There would be one good thing about such legislation, however; it would mean that the present police car would be taken off the road. Toronto newspapers have been publishing pictures of Dr. Maximillian Langsner reputed to be a noted criminologist, who claims he can solve the mystery of the death some years ago of Ambrose Small, the threatrical magnate who disapvoered. These pictures show the criminologist with a mask covering most of his features. It is a good idea. Similar masks would improve a lot of the pictures published in the daily newspapers. Any female criminologist who might wish to remain unknown and unrecognized might wear a mask over her knees. GRAVEL AND SANDâ€"AND PLACER Timmins, Ontario, Thursday, Nov. 1st, 1928 Member of the Canadian Weekly Newspapers Association Tuesday seven Hungarians, who Rad been working up the river in a lumber camp, tried to get out of paying their fare down on the launch, but the sinâ€" gle Frenchman in charge of the boat hung to them until he collected. It is probable that the men, who knew practically no English or French, were under the impression that the lumber company should pay for the transportation, but the man in charge of the launch knew it was up to him to collect from his passengers. He did so. The men apparently spent all their money on Tuesday night, and when they wanted to go back up the river yvesterday afternoon they ed to travel without paying the reâ€" quired passage money. The Frenchâ€" man in charge of the boat, however, did not intend to have anything put over on him. His attitude was, "They Shall Not Pass," and he gave a sucâ€" cessful proof that one good Frenchâ€" man can hold off seven Hungarians. One of the Hungarians is said to have had an axe, but the boatman took that away from him. Another is said to have displayed a knife, but that and everything else was not sufficient to win them free passage on the boat. In the meantime someone phoned the police that a desperate fight was in ‘progress just across the Mattagami bridge and the town police at once visited the scene. Five of the Hiunâ€" garians were taken into custody, later being turned over to the provincial police. The other two men managed to get away before the police arrived. On the men being searched no knife was found or any of those arrested, and they also didn‘t have a cent of money either. They will likely be before the court toâ€"day on a charge of disorderliy conduct. Further proceedings in the Triplex Mine litigation is noted> by Monday evening‘s Toronto Telegram this week, which says:â€""Charles B. Post, Oscar Grainger, A. R. Smith, Robert Potâ€" ter and Josephine A. Thomas faced charges of conspiring during 1921 to 1924 inclusive, to dissuade certain perâ€" sons by threats or other corrupt means from giving ,evidence in an action in the Ontario Supreme Court between Triplex Gold Mines, Ltd., and Dunâ€" can B. Harrison and others contrary to section of 573 of the criminal code. The case has been pending for four years. Defence counsel N. S. Macâ€" Donnell asked for jury trial. The Crown‘s evidence was in the shape of confessions and letters seized by the police. Accused were committed for trial."

Important Meeting for All Interested in Kiwanis VILLE MARIE FARMER SLAYS MOTION PICTURE WOLVES A few days ago a Ville Marie farmer shot and killed a couple of wolves brought at great expense from Hollyâ€" wood and planned to be used in a moâ€" tion picture being made at the Burden Pictures studio camp at the mouth of Kipawa river on Lake Temiskaming. The two wolves had been brought from California in crates, but in some way or another they broke out as the crates stood in front of the C.P.R. staâ€" tion. The wolves at once made a reâ€" gular beeâ€"line for a neighbouring hen coop and the farmer caught them just as they were about to dine on some of his poultry. The farmer used a gun on them and as a result both the wolves were killed. The farmer says he did not know that the wolves were trained animals. All he knew was that they were attacking his chickens. Some person may have to pay for those slaughtered wolves, as the aniâ€" mals were very valuable being specialâ€" ly trained. The farmer, however, says that he ‘will not be the one to pay. A meeting of Kiwanis members, forâ€" mer members and all interested in the Kiwanis is called for Monday evening next in the Masonic hall at 8 o‘clock. The idea of the meeting is to plan for the future of Kiwanis in the town and to enlist the support ofâ€"all interested. Reports of committees will be received. Music and refreshments will be on the programme for the evening. A speciâ€" ally large attendance is desired and urged. On account of the regular meeting day for the town council falling on Thanksgiving Day, the next meeting of the council will be held on Thursday next, Nov. i5th, at 4 p.m. RECALLING THE EXPLOSION AT HAILEYBURY IN 1912 The Community Hallowe‘en event last night may be set down as a decided success from all viewpoints, and Chief of Police McLauchlan, who suggested the idea; the Board of Trade, who adopted it and passed it on to the Kiwanis Club; the mayor and council who gave the idea generous support; the Kiwanis Club, who took it up and energetically and ably planned it and carried it through; the Kiwanees and the I.O.D.E. who filled the bags of candy; and the other orgamizations and individuals and the general public who assisted in making it a success; all deserve all possible credit and appreciation. It was a genuine community night, all interested and assisting. The thousands of children present enjoyed it thoroughly. It proved a good time for the youngâ€" sters, while at the same time it saved business people and citizens generally annoyance and damage hitherto inseparâ€" able from Hallowe‘en. After the event all the youngsters went in sportsmanlike way to their homes. Shortly after ten there was not a youngster to be seen around town. One or two minor cases of interference with windows and proâ€" perty were due solely to older folks. The youngsters playâ€" ed the game in fine fashion, and it is likely that the. Comâ€" munity Hallowe‘en event will be a permanent feature in Timmins, with improvements and additions from year to year. The Chatham, Ontario, Rotary Club put on a similar event in their city. The Dufferin School, Toronto, followed somewhat similar lines. After the event here there is a particular shrewdness in the comment of The Mail and Empire the other day:â€""Chatham Rotarians propost to take in the youthful frolicers on Hallowe‘en and lead them in the right direction. This is better than finding" fault with them aiterwards." As a matter of record it may be well to notehere that last year Chief McLauchlan suggested the plan, but it was on Sept. 14th, this year, when he broached it to the Board of Trade, that it was anthusiasticâ€" ally accepted, and later found favour with practically all who considered it. Mr. A. F. Kenning, M.LA. for this riding, is at present urging upon the Ontario Government, the desirability of having gravelling and other road work done this winter as much as possible. Not only would the following of such a plan result in advantage to the roads of the North, but it would also prove of great assistance to the settlers and farâ€" mers upon whom the crop disaster this year has proven a desperate burden. Through the unusual amount of rain 2 majority of the settlers and farmers have been unable to save their crops. In many cases the men who are pioneerâ€" ing on the land in this North are facing serious difficulty and hardship. Some of them are penniless and with danâ€" ger of actual starvation unless help comes from somewhere. The work suggested by Mr. Kenning would assist them over the winter, and it would be of much benefit to the North. Each year the road problem is accentuated by the fact that early enough start is not made on road work here. With work well planned for the winter, much could be accomâ€" plished during the coming months and everything could be in readiness for immediate work on the roads the minute that the spring opsned. All material could be on the ground ready for work to start as soon as the weather perâ€" mitted. Both for the sake of better roads and to assist the farmers and settlers over a very trying time, everyone should give Mr. Kenning the heartiest support in the efforts he is making at the present time. vertising. 'flle manufacturel‘s of agmtuh however, have very carefully avoided‘any ‘attitude that ‘could be reasonâ€" ably open to criticism. They have centred their advertising on informative matter in regard to quality and attractiveâ€" ness of their product. Advertising on this plan has tended to eliminate the weak and the worthless. The Government certainly should frown on any suggestion for interference with advertising that is carried upon as high standards as that of cigarettes. â€"â€"_â€"THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIQ Air mail service is now available from Timmins to certain far distant points. The stretches where planes do not serve are covered by the use of the railroad channels. Air mail leaves Timmins each day at 11 a.m., arriving at New Orleans at 11 a.m. on the third day; at San Francisco at 4.30 p.m. on the third day; at Los Anâ€" geles at 5.25 on the third day; and at Seattle at 2 pm. on the fourth day. The rate of postage for the air mail is 5 cents per ounce for the first ounce and 10 cents per ounce for additional ounces. AIR MAIL NOW AVAILABLE FROM TIMMINS TO FAR PONTS By a vote of five to two the Cobalt council, this week appointed Thos. Belanger, who has been driver of the department, as fire chief to succeed J. Mathieson, who recently resigned to go to Kirkland Lake as fire chief. There were seven applications for the position. The salary is $140.00 per month, with free house and some other perquisites. The appointment is provisional until the 1929 council ratifies it for the coming year. Fire Chief A. Borland and Mrs, Borland returned on Thursday from London, where they were called owing to the very serious illness of Mr. Borâ€" land‘s brother there. It was not exâ€" pected that the latter could live more than a day or two, but new treatment being used is making very notable imâ€" provement and latest word from Lonâ€" don reports the patient as evidently on the way to recovery. The doctors had diagnosed the case as one of cancer of the stomach with complications, and no chance} for the recovery of the patient. The new treatment, howâ€" ever, is apparently holding out chances for recovery with improvement shown and the patient resting easier. The longest and heaviest train load of grain in the world was hauled in Western Canada a few days ago. It was more than a mile in length and was loaded with wheat.
