"Lttle Beluah Stewart, the threeâ€" yearâ€"old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Stewart, met with an unfortunate acâ€" cident last week," said The Advance ten years ago. "At first the youngster‘s life was feared for, but this week the child is making satisfactory progress to recovery, though still weak from the shock and injuries received. The chila was playing around the room on Saturâ€" day when she fell, and grasping at something to save herself she hit the kettle on the stove which overturned on her, spilling boiling water upon her. She was scalded from the forehead to the knees. The child was hurried to St. Mary‘s hospital and under the good care and attention given there is makâ€" ing good progress to recovery." Ten yeâ€"ars' ago a deputation from Swastika and Kirkland Lake and disâ€" trict waited on the Ontario Governâ€" ment with a view to having mining recorder‘s office opened at Swastika. The nearest recording office then was at Matheson, but with the increased activity in the Kirkland Lake area this was considered not as convenient as it should be. The Advance ten years ago had a lengthy report of the anniversary event of the Byrnes Presbyterian church, Timmins. "The Ladies‘ Aid, the Social Club, the pastor, and all others reâ€" sponsible for the outstanding success of the event deserve congratulations and commendation for the pleasing way in which the anniversary of the Byrnes church was observed this year," said The Advance. On the Sunday there were special services in the church, with large congragations, special music by the choir, attractive solos by Mrs. Government Taxes, Spare Tire and Bumpers Exira AT OSHAWA, ONT _ 48 48. @270 J. K. Moore, helpful and eloquent adâ€" dresses by the pastor, Rev. J. D. Parks, and other special features. On the Monday evening there was a supper and concert under the auspices of the Ladies‘ Aid and the Social Club. Both these events were well patronized and a neat sum realized for the church. "The supper," said The Advance, "was one of the most enjoyable affairs of its kind ever given here, the ladies more than sustaining their high reputaâ€" tion for the best of cooking and the most appetizing dishes. The hospitaliâ€" ty shown to all was another pleasing feature, and all attending refer in the most flattering way to the annual church supper." The Advance also noted the excellence of the concert. "Rev. J. D. Parks proved a very capâ€". able and humorous chairman and saw to it that everything went with a merry. swing and lots of life,," said the reâ€" port. Rev. R. S. Cushing, rector of St. Matthew‘s Anglican church, and Rev. Mr. Armes, of South Porecupine, brought fraternal greetings from these sister churches. The programme included:â€" piano solo, by Mrs. J. W. Faithful; piano duet, by Mrs. R. Sims and Miss Edla Sims; humorous readings, by Miss Inglis; vocal solos, by Miss Craig Hogâ€" garth, Mrs. M. B. Scott, Mrs. J. K. Moore and others; a couple of monoâ€" logues, by J. K. Moore; a selection by the choir. "One of the most interestâ€" ing features of the evening," said the report, "was the rendering of a couple of songs, the words and music both beâ€" ing the original composition of Mrs. R. Sims, who played the accompaniments. Mrs. J. K. Moore sang these two selecâ€" tions with a gift that showed their spirit and charm. In the song of welâ€" come to the returning soldiers, "Welâ€" come Home," there was a swing and a sentiment that will undoubtedly win popularity for this timely selection." The annual dance and social evening given by Golden Beaver Lodge, A. F. A. M. in the Masonic hall, Timmins, on Feb. 14th, 1919, proved a very deâ€" lightful event. The attendance was large and all enjoyed a very pleasant evening. The music for the occasion was furnished by Gere Colomhbo, H. M. Martin and Mrs. R. Sims. The hall was artistically decorated for the ocâ€" casion and refreshments of the usualt tasty kind were served at midnight. A musical programme of great interest was given before the refreshments were served. This programme included vocal selections by Bros. W. R. Dodge, A. L. Joyner and W. McHugh, and solos by Miss Craig Hoggarth and Mrs. J. K. Moore. There was special appreciation shown for "Killiecrankie," as presented by Bro. McHugh. After the dance and supper, photographer Geo. Smith took a flashlight photo of the assembly. The dead body of an infant childâ€" girlâ€"was found on Friday, Feb. 14th, 1919, in a vacant house in Moneta (at that time just across the line from the town, and so in Tisdale township). The house was one of those near the Union Coal Company‘s sheds. The disâ€" covery of the dead body of the child was made by Mr. John Jordan, an emâ€" ployee of the Hollinger Mine, who hapâ€" pened to be passing the house, which was vacant at the time, and the door being open, he notice the child lying on the floor. He at once notified Chief of Police J. Wilson, of town, who took charge of the body of the baby, and also notifying Chief McInnis, of Tisâ€" dale, in regard to the tragic discovery. The indications suggested that the child was alive when left in the house, and that it perished from cold and exposâ€" ure or from hunger, or from a combinâ€" ation of these three causes. The inâ€" fant appeared to he about a month or six weeks ol@. The body was frozen stiff and it was not possible to estiâ€" mate how long it had been dead, but other cirecumstances suggested that the child had not been left in the vacant W / AYEAR AGO, Oldsmobile Six created a new type of automobile, designed and built to meet a demand that had never been answered before.

Theriault was ® 2 un hy AAnmnmatrian aft_ _ a c There was a wild old time at the| Tisdale township council meeting ten | years ago, and there were many hot‘ words spoken. The heated discussion | arose from the suggestion of Council-i lors Muskett and Hutchison that the| township offices be moved to Schuma-! cher. Delegations were present from | the South Porcupine Board of Trade and other bodies of citizens. G. H. Gauthier, Reeve Morgan, Councillor Walton, exâ€"Reeve Boyle and Messrs| Wilkins and Charlton spoke stronglyl against the idea of moving the townâ€" ship offices. There was a lively exâ€" change between some of the speakers and Councillor D. Mackie, and the deâ€". bate waxed hct and furious. On the one side the fact that South Porcupine wast established as the centre had borne the burden in earlier days and had many advantages, was emphasized. On the other hand it was claimed that this end of the township had the greater ;population, the greater tax roll, and Schumacher was the proper place for 'the township offices. Reeve Morgan and Councillor Morgan said they would resign if the motion was made Then it was decided to have the rateâ€" payers vote on the question. but this was dropped when it was found that the judge would not approve the addâ€" ed list of names to the voters‘ list for 1918 and the councillors favouring Schumacher as the municipal centre did not want the vote on the old list. At the reguiar meeting of the Timâ€" mins town council ten years ago the chief topic of discussion was the matâ€" ter of waterworks extensions and the installation of a sewerage system. Town Engineer Sutcliffe submitted plans and estimates for the proposed works. The chairman of the waterâ€" works committee was asked to bring in a report on the matter. Mr. R. Brinâ€" ton applied for a grant for a propoesed employment bureau he was going to open in Timmins, but the council asked for full particulars as to the plans and methods of the proposed employment office before considering the question of any grant. D. W. O‘Sullivan was engaged as town solicitor at a salary of $100.00 per month. On motion of Councillor A. Brazeau, seconded by Councillor E. L.

J. D. Parks in which ': he touched on the need for the developâ€" | ment of the various sides of men‘s icharacters and intellects. By an odd coincidence the same Sunday evening, a sermon by Rev. Fr. Theriault was followed by the formation of a Cathoâ€" ‘lic Men‘s Club. Neither Rev. Mr. \ Parks nor Rev. Fr. Theriault had any | knowledge of the plans of the other in ;this case, the suggestions from both pulpits coming only because of the need that both recognized for providing a meeting place for men in their spare | time. The Advance ten years ago said, in part:â€""The sad news reached her last week of the death at the Royal Vicâ€" toria hospital, Montreal, on Feb. 12th, 1919, of Miss Ray Pierce, second daughâ€" ter of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Pierce, of Timmins. She was only 24 years of age at the time of death, and had been ill for about a year, most of that time being spent in the hospital undergoing treatment. Despite the long weary months of illness and suffering, she kept a cheerful disposition that was remarkable for its sweetness and optimâ€" ism. She passed away quietly without pain or struggle. To the bereaved faâ€" mily the sympathy of all will go out in this sorrow." Who is Your Skinny Friend, Ethel?

The figures show that Timmins can give them all pointâ€" ers in the matter of the charging for| milk. At the time that the figures| were tabulated milk was selling in | Timmins for 25 cents per quart. The | | highest price charged in any Canadian |city was 17 to 18 cents in Moose Jaw, Sask.

Recent years have seen deâ€" cided improvement in the commercial position of most of these journals. But even more important is the growth of the influence of these papers in the shaping of public opinion. . Weekly newspapers were always noted for the bluntness of their editorial expression. Recent years have witnessed no diminâ€" ution in this direction, but also a markâ€" ed tendency to complete independence from party bondage. A prominent politician recently referred to the jourâ€" nals in question as "oneâ€"horse weekâ€" lies." It was an unfortunate expresâ€" sion. But it was not received by the editors concerned with as much anger as amusement. They were under no illusions as to the greatness or weakâ€" ness of their papers. No ‘"inferiority complex" made them supersensitive. ‘ There are in Ontario alone half a dozen weeklies carrying editorials of which ;neither the London Times nor any other great metropolitan newspaper ‘need feel ashamed. While not all atâ€" tain equal literary excellence, many more make valuable weekly contribuâ€" |tions to the thought of the nation. \ The editors of these paper are usually ‘ men who take orders only from their ‘ own consciences. They are close to the realities of everyday life. They write 5' with knowledge and sympathy from the standpoint of the ordinary â€" people. ‘They are no longer the "yes men" of \the big political partiee of the city newspapers.
