The evening vocational classes at the Timmins High School have proved of great value to many here of forâ€" eign birth who wish to perfect themâ€" selves in the English language. With knowledge of the English language they will find it much easier to adapt themselves to the ways of this counâ€" try and make greater progress. Acâ€" cordingly, the result has been of douâ€" ble value, helping those with a lack of knowledge of English and, by FGREIGNâ€"BORN TRYING TO LEARN ENGLISH LANGUAGE Toronto Mail and Empire:â€"Ottawa is fairly burning up with indignation. Some Toronto newspaper writer has suggested that the name of the capital be changed to Paris because there are so many Parisâ€"sites there. This reâ€" ferred to the civil servants who spend money freely. making more useful citizens, helping the country. The evening vocational classes at Kirkland Lake have had a similar form of usefulness. In conâ€" nection with this it may be noted that The Northern News last week made the following comment:â€""Citizens of Kirkland Lake may be interested to know that among the repidents of foreign birth in the township of Teck there are some 40 men and women who desire to make themselves better citizens by acquiring the English lanâ€" suage. To meet this need the High School Board have, during the winter months, been conducting classes in the public school building. Recently a representative of The Northern News had the privilege of visiting the classes and seeing how the work was progressing. Several of the students were busy writing sentences on the blackboard and the balance of the class were asked where mistakes, if any, were. Others were asked to read from the school readers and explain what was meant by the stories thus read. The development of these puâ€" pils (most of them over 20 years of age) is remarkable. The Northern News was informed that some of the pupils a year ago could not read or write English. Today they can manâ€" age to read and understand the lesâ€" sons in the second book of the public school." Barrie Examiner:â€"Parliament has again declared against titles being givâ€" en to Canadians for distinguished serâ€" vices Why not go the whole way and make it against the law for colleges to confer honorary degrees? _ The prinâ€" sipal is the same in both, One is quite as capable of abuse as the other. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO t Rabies, or madness in dogs, is one ~of the oldest known diseases of aniâ€" mals and man in the world. It is ‘always carried to the human being by | who has been bitten, scratched or and through the spittle of the infectâ€" ied animal. Therefore, any person even licked, by an animal suspected | of being infected should at once reâ€" port to a physician for Pasteur treatâ€" ment, which is supplied free by the \| Ontario Department of Health. The |treatment is an absolute cure for the ‘infection in human beings, if proper iprecautlons are taken in time. The period of incubation of the disease is from 14 days to eight months. AUTHORITIES TAKE STEPS 1O GVUARD AGAINST RABIES Cases of Diseases Reported from Difâ€" ferent Parts of Province. Authorâ€" ities Ask Help of All to Prevent Trouble The Department of Public Hea‘lth recently called attention to some cases of rabies in dogs at Ottawa and at Wallaceburg, Ont. The department warns all of the necessity to guard against danger in the matter. It is pointed out that if people know the proper steps to take there is no parâ€" ticular danger to people from rabies. Further, there is no necessity for any spread of the disease, if people will only watch their dogs. Any dog susâ€" pected of having rabies should be kept tied up and under observation by A health official. The symptoms are plainly outlined by the authorities and no one should take any chance on any dog suffering from these sympâ€" toms. In this North Land where there are so many dogs very special attenâ€" tion should be given to the warning issued by the Health Department. Any dog which suddenly developes vicious symptoms should be at once securely tied up, and kept under obâ€" servation by a health official for 10 days. Other smptoms will develop raâ€" pidly if the animal is suffering from rabies and the dog will be dead before the end of the 10â€"day period. Dogs which suddenly develop vicious sympâ€" toms, even against their best friends should not be shot through the head, as examination of the brain of the animal is the best, and at present the most positive way of deciding whether its behavior has been caused by raâ€" bies. And the result of such examinâ€" ation provides the authoritie: with positive evidence upon which to take action. The head shouid be immediâ€" ately sent to the Department of Pubâ€" lic Health at Toronto for examinaâ€" tion. Rabies, hydrophobia or madness, first indicates its presence in a dog by a change in its habits; it becomes gloomy, restless and vicious; the restâ€" lessness increases; the animal snaps at everything and tears up and swalâ€" lows unusual things; it shows an abâ€" normal desire to drink water, with inâ€" ability to swallow. The eyes are dull, the mouth continually open, and the animal has a characteristic highâ€" toned bark. It becomes much excited in the presence of another dog and tries to attack it; gradually convulâ€" sions, paralysis and coma come on and death ensues. There is, however, nowâ€"aâ€"days no cause for getting excited over rabies if the person who has been bitten, seratched or licked by a dog, or other animal suspected of being mad, unâ€" dergoes treatment at once. The Pasâ€" teur treatment has proved itself and has eliminated all danger of anyone unfortunate enough to be bitten, or infected, dying from the dread sease. The Haileyburian last week says:â€" "Lawrence "Baldy‘" Northcott, of the local Senior N.O.H.A. sextette, has signed a contract with the Montreal Maroons, in the National Hockey League, and subbed with the team at Boston on Tuesday evening.

RideauHall COPEFEE Do not change from brand to brandâ€" buy Rideau Hall in the vacuum sealed tinâ€"the same flavor, strength and freshness year in and year out. In future years the present era wili be looked back upon as the "Prospecâ€" ting Age" in Canada. The principal figure emerging from the times will be that of the prospector. Actually, he dominates the scene toâ€"day. It is his "hey day." The sun is really shinâ€" ing for him, and he is not missing his harvest. The Prospector Will be the QOutstandâ€" ing Figure of This Era in Canadian ~History, Says Writer In the development of Canada‘s mining drama there are three imporâ€" tant actors. These are the prospecâ€" tor, the engineer and the financier. They are coâ€"stars, indispensable to each other and to the successfil runâ€" ning of the show. The prospector, by virtue of his role as the initiator of mining movements, is key man. The assistance he receives from science and finance is vital to his success, and it is significant that this is readilyâ€" even urgentlyâ€"proferred in this Gay. Canada may take a just pride in its prospectors as a class. The history of mining in any country cannot show a finer group. The territorial features and the climate of Canada offer no attractions to weaklings in any proâ€" fession. Peculiarly does this apply to the business of finding mineral deâ€" posits in our nothern latitudes. Apart from the physical qualities of strength and hardihood essential to prospecting in this country, the moral requisities of courage and perseverâ€" ance "loom large. These our native prospectors possess in large measure. Not only have they skill, but integrity and a fine sense of fair play. There is a glamour avout prospecting ard about the men who Afollow itâ€" and rightly so. These men are not mere artisans, skilled though they be in their profession. They are preâ€" eminently the pathfinders and leaders of forlorn hopes. They venture into the wilderness to pit their skill, imaâ€" gination and courage against the siâ€" lent bush. They search with painsâ€" taking care a vast and oftentimes »ulâ€" len country. They read the ‘.‘oc‘cs Cn thelr routes as the city man csa ‘s Jhus paper on the way to work. They halt and scrape and dig where nature gives the hint. Here is no prosaic task of putting brick upon brick or filling a barrow with sand, adding a column of figures or punching a machine. Prospecting and prospectors have their ups and downs. In recent years there has been a notable tendency to call science to the assistance of the searchers for mineral deposits. Tasâ€" ual observers once read into the moveâ€" ment the doom of the oldâ€"time prosâ€" pector. It did not materialize. He is more in demand than ever, and very much alive. The elaborate electrical and other prospecting contrivanres were found to have their definite limitâ€" ations. It remained for the skilled oldâ€"timer, pushing off into the bush with a partner, to bring to light finds of importance. The hum of the aeroplane was heard in the land. The bark of the "kicker" was added to the mechanical racket. The dip needle dipped and the prosâ€" pector prospected. The sum of it was that the mossâ€"scratching expert came home with the prize. He used the powered transportation to carry 16. A ready acceptance of aid from moâ€" dern science is characteristic of the prospector of today. He can use . it, but not it him. That intangible asset of his, knowledge of formation and economic values, cannot be transmitâ€" ted to any machineâ€"and he knows it. Many an engineer, scouting with a prospector, has been surprised to learn the degree of geological knowledge possessed by the latter. Technical terminology has no terrors for him, adding little, if at all, to his sixth sense of values. The engineer, called in to render a verdict upon a find and to fulfil his essential function in the scheme of things, has rarely been able to make a find of commercial importâ€" ance himself. This fact, "admitted for years, has been the subject of much speculative comment. There appears little danger of the prospector being ousted by science in any of its branches or its applications. To him is allotted the task of making finds, to others the job of scientific exploitation and finâ€" ancing. Canadian prospectors today have, without question, the greatest and most promising field in the world to work. They are wel equipped and well backed. Truly, a man with a good find on his hands has a path beaten to his door. There is a genâ€" eral and deserved recognition of the prospector‘s part in the opening up of the preâ€"Cambrian shield and the plundering of its riches. These priâ€" The Wawbewawa correspondent has the same sort of complaint but h: does not make an excuse of it, but rather turns it into a sort of prose poem of fancy,., as follows:â€""There is not much news around here except that the pencil has made quite a number of pointed remarks about the sponge being soaked all day and the waste basket being full. The scissors are cutting up and the paper weight is trying to hold them down, while the paste is sticking around to see the stamps get a good licking. The ink‘s welt but appears tio be, blue, and the calâ€" endar is looking fresher after having had a month off. I don‘t know if the man in the moon got a permit or not, but the moon was full last week."
