Thursday, May 9th, 1929 THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO BUSINESS MEN ORGANIZE 10 HELP ALONG JUNIOR SPORTS (Continued from Page One) President Lowe thanked the gatherâ€" ing for their confidence in him and promised that he would do his level best and asked for the wholehearted support of all. support of all. The matter of a name for the new organization was then discussed and several suggestions made. Eventually, it was moved by Arch Gillies and seâ€" conded by P. Dougall that the new orâ€" ganization be called Timmins Boys‘ Athletic Association. After some disâ€" cussion an amendment to the motion was made on motion of Rev. J. D. Parks and Dr. H. H. Moore, that the naming of the organization be left to the executive, who, after consultirg a representative number of the boys shall select a name agreeable to all, the amendment carrying by a large vote. Rev. J. D. Parks thought the success of the plan would depend on the superâ€" vision given. Geo. Lake said he felt sure the plan could not succeed unless there was supervisor who would give all his time to the work for a few months at least. Others expressed similar views, and there appeared to be general opinion that an allâ€"time suâ€" pervisor was necessary at least for the first few months to keep things runnâ€" ing smoothly and get the best out of the plan. Hugo Shaw referred to this in a brief address on work for boys, and he and J. J. Lynch referred to the value of the surveys made without cost by the Canadian branch of the Boys‘ Club Federation of America. It was decided to get in touch with the Canaâ€" dian headquarters of this federation and see if they could send a man here to look over the situation, and also if they could recommend a suitable man for supervisor or organizer. It was also decided to write Parks Commissioner Chambers, of Toronto, for his views and On motion of Geo. Lake, seconded by Mayor Drew, it was decidâ€" ed that the organization procure the services of an organizer if so advised by the representative of the organiâ€" zation making the survey. Ifter many brief but very. helpful talks from several of those present "for the good of the order" the meeting adâ€" journed. It was one of the most largeâ€" ly attended and: enthusiastic meetings held in town for some time, and the organization seemsâ€"to be away to the best kind of a start. Ready For Anything at Sandy Falls These Days The.following is the budget of news and views from Sandy Falls in the current issue of The C.N.P.C. Review, under the headingâ€"of "Sandy Sobs":â€" Yep, we‘re through on schedule with work on our new beooms, piers and log slide, and we‘re tickled to death with the job, too. In ~spite of adverse weather conditions at times, and a host of other nuisances, the work was comâ€" pleted and all ready on March 30th, one day abead of schedule. A great deal of credit is due to Mr. J. Belanger (construction foreman) who stubbornâ€" ly fought obstacles of every conceivâ€" able kind to attain his desired goal. Comments were passed as the work proceeded, good and bad, but mostly good. The bad comments we tied up in a sack and dropped them overâ€" board. The good ones, we tucked them inside our shirt and kept them warm, for they inspired us to greater efforts. However, here we are again, standâ€" ing by for flood water and the log drive. We‘re all set for our annual catch of dead cows, pigs and horses, and the regular fiotilla of boat houses, log shacks and chicken coops. Admiral Bill Stoddard passed through Sandy Falls, en route to take comâ€" mand of the Sturgeon Falls navy. Bill is a pioneer when it comes to navigate the waters on the Sturgeon Falls route, and we have no fear for his success. H. R. McDonald has left us to try his luck in the U.S.A. So he informed us, and we are sorry to see him go. We hope to see Herm. again some day. His Ramon Navarro appearance will be sadly missed. Look up the "Porcuzine Advance" and see what we have in the way of talent. Mr. T D. Armstead‘s wonderâ€" ful tenor voice has been in great deâ€" mand at all prominent functions in Timmins of late. When it comes to singing songs of the "Ould Sod," Tomâ€" my can lick his weight in wildcats. Atta boy, Tom. Harry and Mrs. McKay are now doâ€" miciled in the "We Red Hoose" at Sanâ€" dy.

The music was effectively supplied by Burton Holâ€" !land and his orchestra. Tax Bills to be Sent by Mail in Town This Year Last week in referring to the collecâ€" tion of taxes in town this year The Advance said that the tax notices this year would be delivered in town to all properties other than those whose owâ€" ners were not resident in town. This was the original intention but it is understood that this plan will not be followed. Instead, the tax bills will all be mailed this year, this being the most convenient method. The council has passed a byâ€"law to make this plan legal and to facilitate its use.

A whist drive and dance will be held by the society on Tuesday of next In discussing the probability of the Alexo Mine being reâ€"opened, The North Bay Nugget this week says:â€" "With the nickelâ€"copper industry back to its warâ€"time level the quesâ€" tion of reâ€"opening the old Alexo Mine at Porquis Junction may again come under consideration in the near future. There is still a large tonnage of nickel averaging roughly 4 per cent., which it it could be sold would yield a good retwn on the investment involved in taking it from the mine and shipping it to Sudbury, according to Major E. F. Pullen, viceâ€"president of the Alexo Mining Company, who is making a business trip through Northern Ontaâ€" rio. Mr. Pullen is now engaged in coal mining at Alexo in the Saunders field, Alberta. ALEXO SAID TO BE SEEKING MARKET FOR ORE FROM MINE "The question of reâ€"opening the Alexo Mine will depend wholly on the ability of the company to find a marâ€" ket for the ore. The mine operated for seven years on one of what is beâ€" lieved to be a series of ore bodies and from which a total of approximately 50,000 tons of ore were removed and shipped to the Mond Nickel Company‘s smelter at Coniston. The average proâ€" duction was around 100 tons of ore a day and returns were sufficiently large to enable the Alexo Mining Company, which was privately financed, to pay several comfortable Gividends on a small capitalization. When the postâ€" war slump in the nickel market ocâ€" curred purchases of ore by the Mond company ceased and operations at Alexo were suspended. Mr. Pullen states, however, that the ore in the mine was by no means exhausted and he believes further operations on the same basis could be carried on successâ€" fully."
