Always the Same Timmins Garage Company Limited by a fellowâ€"patient who has just reâ€" turned north, but it is thought this will work itself out. Hardy is able to zecognize friends, although not able to read. He will be in hospital for some time yet, an official of the mine said last week. The condition ot Arthur Hardy, one of the two men hurt in the recent fatal blasting ‘accident at the Keeley mine, Silver Centre, continues favourâ€" able, reports reaching Cobalt from Toâ€" ronto indicate. Hardy is a patient in the General Hospital in that city, where he was rushed on the evening after the mishap in an effort to save his eyvesight.

"We are operating in a country which has tremendous rewards for those who are highly organized, know the game and j are bold enough to strike deeply into I the new areas. "Hundreds of young men are sendâ€" ing in applications to the company to be tried at the game, which shows that the old spirit is still alive. Blairmore, Alberta, Enterprise:â€"The very latest fish story comes from Pinâ€" cher Creek, where a fellow named Fraser found his goldfish still and lifeâ€" less in frozen water, and on breaking the ice and lifting the fish out pourew brandy down its throat to revive it. The next morning, which was much milder, the fish was again found moâ€" tionlessâ€"pretending to be frozen in. "Three large bases and 26 mail bases of the company have been established to help fliers in the north country, and during the winter eight tons of supâ€" plies, 25 men and equipment had been flown into the Crow River properties of the company. "The record of the company in one year is enough to justify the organâ€" ization of other companies, as the exâ€" perience now gained will be valuable to anyone else contemplating the breaking of new ground in the north country." "The morale of the prospecting crews has increased tremendously because they have had all the worry of transâ€" portation of supplies and materials reâ€" moved from them. When they are finished with any locality they together with their canoes, which are sectional, and other supplies, can be flown to other places in a fraction of a day. "The aeroplane is the only feasible means of transportation in the north and from the viewpoint of safety since the first serious attempt to carry out prospecting by plane in 1926 there has not been a casualty | to passengers, whereas by the old method of prosâ€" pecting 42 men have lost their lives. "All this we have accomplished in less than nine months. The planes have travelled from the Alaskan coast on the west to the Labrador coast on the east and from the transcontinental rail to the Arctic circle, carrying prosâ€" pectors who have gained for the comâ€" pany several large new goldfields, as well as deposits of every known kind of metal. stations all over the north country, most of which are equipped with two years‘ supplies. method of prospecting was really more] 2.

H. Angus accompanyâ€" ing the notice of the company‘s annual meeting on March 27 and of the speâ€" cial meeting on the same date to inâ€" crease the capitalization from 5,000,000 shares to 6,500,000 shares, Although the shares created by the increase in capitalization last May were sold at ;’prices higher than the market price . of the stock the sum realized by the company was not sufficient for it to complete the programme of developâ€" ment recommended by Victor A. James M.E., says Mr. Angus. Since developâ€" ment work on the upper levels was discontinued last July the shaft hasi been sunk from the 800â€"foot level to the 1,100â€"foot level and approximately 1,â€" 200 feet of crosscutting and drifting has been done on the 1,000 and 1.100-1 foot horizons. On the 1,100â€"foot level,| where the vein was first encountered in the crosscut from the shaft, values were found over a greater width than _prevailed on the upper levels, accord-i ing to the report, and this condition extended along the vein for a length of ! approximately 130 feet. On this lowest| level the conditions have been found to be much different than on the upâ€" per levels. Veins have been found which were not known to exist on the j upper levels and the veins at this | depth so far developed have shown| greater width. When the present| work was commenced it was believed | that profitable ore bodies would be enâ€"| countered at lower levels in the area| lying some distance east of the shaft,‘ states Mr. Angus. If profitable oref is encountered here development will; probably be concentrated on this secâ€" tion of the mine and the downward extension explored by means of a winze | in order to bring the mine into proâ€"| duction as soon as possible.

GOLD HILL MINES PLACES wWHY THEY OPPOSE TITLESs FAITH IN LOWER LEVELS . oN THIS HERE CONTINENT Take these latter two points, which any one will quickly admit are of paramount imâ€" portance in this day of high speed and conâ€" gested traffic. In braking, gear shifting, steering and all the operations of driving, either on mountain roads, or on level highways, or in city traffic, there are no other cars in all the world that can compare with Cadillac and La Salle. CADILLACLASALLE Thus Cadillac‘s position as the leader of the fine car group is an accepted fact that one would scarcely think of challenging and, in the minds of all, Cadillac is readily granted first place on the basis of prestige gained over a period of 25 years, the incomparable brilliance, smoothness, flexibility and reliability of its 90â€" degree, Vâ€"type, 8â€"cylinder engine, and its extraordinary value. Safety and Control. But within recent months Cadillac and the Cadillacâ€"built La Salle have forged ahead to such an extent that you may not realize how vastly their superiority over all other cars has been increased â€" especially from the viewpoint of safety and easy mastery of control. AT takes an expert to select a first class diamond and appraise its value. With motor cars the situation is quite different. There are certain outstanding facts about automobiles that are common knowledge to every man, woman and child and these facts serve to create sharp distinctions and to classify cars on the basis of quality and value. The Blunt Uncompromising Truth If you will stop and study the situation for a moment, you will realize that the plainest and most outstanding fact in motoring today is that there are no other cars which can be classed with Cadillac and La Salle.
