It is expected that this vein, where encountered will be in conâ€" tact with a large body of syenite lying south of the vein. It is the intention to drift on this formation, as well as to further develop the north showing. â€"Northern Miner Mail and Empire:â€"The automobile has brought former distant places closer .and closer together, including our house and the poorhouse. BETTER VALUES REPORTED AT GOLD HILL PROPERTY According to reports from the Gold Hill property at Boston Creek, better results are being had in the east drift on the 1,100â€"foot level than the averâ€" age on upper levels. Values, it is said, are more consistent. Underground work is now being cenâ€" tred on the 1,100â€"foot level. The vein, which was encountered about 25 feet north of the shaft, is being opened up and most of the drift east froin the crosscut has been in commercial ore. This vein lies against a syenite dyke to the north, and it is stated widths are much better than they were on the No. 1 vein at the 800â€"foot level in the corresponding location SISCOE MILL NOW BEING VYERY THOROUGHLY TESTED | delegates, to the use of the word Xmas which occurred in a certain portion of the minutes of the previous mecting.

HAD WRONG WORD TAKEN OUT OF LABOUR MINUTES "As I see it, the use of the word Xunas, instead of Christmas, is most unseemly, not to say unchristianlike, and I move that this word be expunge from the minutes and the proper word, Christmas, inserted in its place."

Our new superintendent, Mr. William Keizer, is searching the plant, presumâ€" ably for 1,000 K.W. that got away on Many complaints are made these days in regard to hats, scarfs, overâ€" shoes, rubbers, and even coats being lost at the halls here during dances and at meetings of social and fraterâ€" nal societies and clubs. In some cases the word "lost‘" is not the correct one, it being apparent that some of the articles are deliberately stolen. In some cases, no doubt, rubbers or overâ€" shoes, or other articles, may be taken by mistake, but in such cases it would appear that the error would be disâ€" covered later and effort made to corâ€" rect it. In the cases where articles are stolen it seems a particularly mean form of theft and one that will no doubt be adequately dealt with if the offenders happen to be caught as they are almost sure to be. Those who do not respect the property of others should take warning before they enâ€" counter serious trouble. Any who find they have carried away articles by misâ€" take should notify those in charge so as to avoid the suspicion of deliberate theft.

He waves reply and shouts "You will like nothing, This is the last for 1928." Good values were obtained last week in a test pit ten feet in depth at the Grimstonâ€"Porcupine property, accordâ€" ing to President Digby Grimston in an interview with The Toronto Mail and Empire. The vein was the whole width of the pit at that point, he said, and neither wall had been reached. It has been traced on surface for about 400 feet, but values did not begin to come in until several shots had been put in. Assays at the bottom of the pit, after allowing for free gold, gave $27 and $35 said, Mr Grimston. During the past Summer a surface campaign was conducted and it is now the intention to put in a small development plant and later a twoâ€"stamp Tremaine mill. Three miles of road were built by the Government this year, so that the comâ€" pany now has a motor road right to the property. The holdings consist of five claims, and are the original develâ€" opment in Garrison Township. The company is capitalized at 1,000,000 shares of $1 par, of which 465,000 shares were issued for the property and some 60,000 shares additional are in the hands of the public. A second vein, 1,500 feet to the north, has been traced for 600 feet. Owing to surface oxidation it was necessary to sink a pit to a depth of 15 feet here, but at that point the formation was four feet wide. Mineralization was opened up in several places between the two veins and will be further explored later. The origin of Christmas trees, Christmas â€" stockings, presentâ€"giving and other Christmas features being a matter for concern at this season of the year, it is only to be expected that someone should enquire as to the origin of Christmas cards. The Christmas card idea is only eightyâ€"two years old, according to the most authentic acâ€" counts of the matter. In 1846, at Christmas time, Sir Henry Cole, K.C. B., of the London Record Office, conâ€" ceived the idea of having the season‘s greetings printed on a card with a suitâ€" able decoration, to send to his friends. Mr. J.‘°C. Horsley, a Royal Academiâ€" clan, was the artist who designed the card. The idea proved very popular and was adopted the next Christmas by hundreds of people. The populariâ€" ty of the Christmas card idea is now such that literally millions of them are now used every year in Canada alone.
