THINKS GOLDALE WILL BE SITTING PRETTY" VERY SOON The Sudbury Star last week says:â€" "An interesting angle in connection with the proposed plan for the reorganâ€" ization of Coniaurum Mines, Limited, with Ventures, Limited, putting up money for further development, is the position held by Goldale Mines, Limitâ€" ed. This company, it is recalled, was a stockholder in Coniaurum to the exâ€" tent of about 225,000 shares and was also a bondholder to a corresponding amount. Besides its holdings of Coniâ€" aurum, which under the plan of reorâ€" ganization may take on considerable value, Coldale has also valuable assets including some $50,000 cash in the treasury and a number of strategically placed properties in the Porcupine disâ€" trict. For the present the scheme with regard to Coniaurum is still somewhat hazy, due to uncertainly over the attiâ€" tude of the bondholders, but when the negotiations are finally completed some wellâ€"informed mining men who are heavily interested in Goldale are of the opinion that this company will be sitting in an interesting position." DATA REQUIRED FROM ALL PULPWOOD LAND LICENSEES wW. C. Cain, deputy minister of lands and forests, made the first step last week in the plans towards putting into effect the pulpwoods conservation act passed at the last session of the legisâ€" lature.. This first step was the sending out of a circular letter to 800 pulpwood land licensees in Ontario, asking for the information required under the act. To each licensee was sent a copy of the act, which is intended to secure for the government accurate information as to the amount and extent of all pulpwoeod operations in order that the forests of Ontario may be placed on a sustained yield, or crop, basis. As well as the copy of the act, each licensee was sent duplicate questionâ€" naires containing questions asking the information required under the act, Instructions were given in accordance with the act that each questionnaire must be returned filled out and signed by officers of the company and a qualified forester. The licensees are mainly companies operating over tracts of varying extents but there are several smail operators with minor holdings. All will be reâ€" quired to give the same full data. These questionnaires are returnable by Sept. 1, after which date the deâ€" partmental foresters will start working out the huge problem of regulating the annual cut so as to preserve Ontario‘s present forest wealth for all time, as the act aims. The Kiwanis Club at Noranda has done much to add to the beauty of that new town by an extensive campaign of tree planting along the roads. Ehe PDorcupine Mdtpantre Haileybury Entry Won Relay Race on Saturday der the auspices of The Halleyburian at Haileybury on Saturday, June 1st, was won by the Haileybury team enâ€" tered. The race was over sixâ€"mile course. There were five teams in the event, one from Haileybury, one from Kirkland Lake, two from Englehart and one from New Liskeard. The Haileybury team won the field, and were followed by the other teams in the following order:â€"Kirkland Lake, Englehart first team, New Liskeard, and Englehart second team. The best time for the individual mile was five minutes 18 seconds, by Carlâ€" son, of Haileybury. A shield and six silver medals were presented to the winning team, with bronze medals for the runnersâ€"up, all given by the local newspaper. Individuals donated prizes to the three youths turning in the fastâ€" est time, Carlson, McKeown of Kirkâ€" land Lake, and Henderson of Engleâ€" hart. After the race officials and runâ€" ners were entertained in the Hotel Haileybury by the local Rotary Club. Conditions were not very favourable for racing, a strong wind blowing from the north and handicapping the boys. Mining first annual relay race held unâ€" Four hundred years. Ships of the adventurer, the explorer, the pioneer, the builder of empire and later, great ships of commerce followed those of Cartier, but the Isle of Bacchus has not known them all and has slept before the portal of the new world for many generations. Not that it has been forgotten, but that the bigger ships have gone by. Industry has not destroyed its charm and today it remains, if not the pristine isle of Cartier, a piece of old France as translated by those who shortly followed him. “WE likewise found quantities of vines such as we had seen nowhere else in the world and which led us to call this the ‘Island of Bacchus‘". Thus the Saint Malo captain, Cartier, who discovered the Isle of Orleans in 1535 first named it. _ The illustrations above typify the island. "Progress‘"‘ has been slow. Its people have learned the secret of content.

At Ste. Petronille, one of the quaint little villages where wealthy Quebec has its summer homes, an inn has this year been opened, so that it is now possible for the visitor to rest for a while and absorh at leisure the charm and beauty of the forgotten island. But he must be prepared to eat of the good viands of the Habitant and to live a little closer to the homespun. The people of the island will welcome him with goodâ€"nature but they have little liking for the modern. They have the secret cf content and goodâ€"living, on the Island of Bacchus. homes are of a century ago. They weave their catalogne; live in homespun. They are blessed with old people. Yet, a short ferry distance away, Quebec with its ramparts, its Chateau Frontenac and its ocean shipping, keeps pace with the advance of the times. KGE STREET The Sudbury Star last week says:â€" "News of a spectacular gold discovery on claims owned by MciIintyreâ€"Porcuâ€" pine Mines, Limited, has started anâ€" other rush of prospectors into Patricia district. The scene of the discovery is said to be Birch Lake, north of the Red Lake, Woman and Clearwater Lake country in the Red Lake Mining Divisâ€" ion. Details are meagre, but from what can be learned in Sudbury the ore is extremely rich, values having been unâ€" covered as high as $1500 per ton across a vein two feet in width. The vein matter where the discovery was made is reported to be almost half gold. Several prominent engineers are on their way to investigate the new disâ€" covery, which if it proves to be as good as first reports would indicate, may reâ€" vive interest in Patricia District to a marked degree.‘ Spectacular Discovery Reported in Patricia Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Hancock, of Cochâ€" rane, announce the engagement of their only daughter, Bernice Anna, to Mr. John Nelson Page, of Cochrane, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. H. Page, of Alliâ€" ston, Ont., the marriage to take place early in August. TORONTO, ONT. ult s it lt INJURED CLERGYMAN NOW IN HOSPITAL AT TORONTV For three months Mrs. Morrow reâ€" mained at Moose Factory while her husband was in hospital at Cochrane. On May 19, accompanied by Constable Chisholm of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, she began her long trek to Cochrane. Here she arranged for his removal to a Toronto hospital where he is now undergoing treatment. Mrs. Geo. Morrow Also in Toronto. Counle May Fly Back to Rupert‘s HMHouse in Few Months. Despatches from Toronto last week say that after three months‘ separation, Mrs. Edith Morrow, is again with her husband, Rev. George Morrow, Angliâ€" can clergyman of Rupert House, who was last March flown to civilization for medical treatment following a tobogâ€" ganing accident in which he received a broken thigh. Captain Roy Maxwell, director of the provincial air service, who brought out Rev. Mr. Morrow in a Moth plane, and who has been a constant visitor to the clergyman‘s bedside, told Rev. and Mrs. Morrow he would try and arrange to fly them back to their northern post, when the clergyman has fully recovâ€" ered. "The leg is fine now," said Mr. Morâ€" row, "we are waiting for Xâ€"ray plates to see if the break is strong enough to bear my weight." MEETING OF WEST DOME LAKE ADJOURNED TO THIS WEEK Reports were adopted and directors reâ€"elected at the anual meeting of West Dome Lake Mines held at Toronâ€" to last Friday. Sir Henry M. Pellatt, chairman, told the shareholders that the company lacked finances and that a reâ€"organization would be in the best interests of all. A special general meeting was held following the annual to approve of the sale of the assets to a new company for 1,500,000 shares. The meeting fell short, however, of 100,000 shares of the necessary twoâ€"thirds to pass the byâ€" law and adjournment was made until June 5. THOMPSONâ€"CADILLAC CO. CHANGES NOW COMPLETED Announcement was made at Toronto Friday that Thompsonâ€"Cadillac Mines, Ltd., had been granted suplementary letters patent authorizing an increase in capitalization from 2,000,000 shares to 3.000,000 shares with a par value of $1. The head office will be handed over to the new interests and will be located at the Cochrane building, Sudâ€" bury. The executive and general offices will be at 388 St. James street, Monâ€" treal. Messrs Coleman, Haskell Co., chartered accountants of Montreal, are taking over the secretaryâ€"treasurership of the company in succesion to E. 8. Gordon, who has resigned both as director and as secretaryâ€"treasurer. Pred Burpee of Ottrwa will fill the vaâ€" cancy on the board, it is stated. Monâ€" treal shareholders, who are largely inâ€" terested in the company‘s affairs, will now have three representatives on the directarate and it is understood that sufficient funds will be forthcoming to carry on development for a considerâ€" able period. Murray Kenmnedy, the mine manager, is resigning owing to illness in his family and plans to reâ€" side in Toronto.. George D. Campbell of Sudbury has already left for the property to take charge. PROVINCIAL OFFICERS NOW PATROL PART OF HIGHWAY The provincial police patrol of the southern part of the Ferguson highway has been resumed for the season, but the "speed cops" have not yet been asâ€" signed to the northern section. No doubt it is felt that anyone who could or would speed on this section of the North Land roads would deserve to get away with it, if they lived to tell the tale. Some strips of the roadway between Golden City and Connaught would defy the most fervent speeder to do any speeding. A tractor owned by the Government and located in the Connaught section was the only motor power machine that was able to do any speeding thereabouts last week and it had to speed to help cars that got stuck in the mire and tooted for help at all hours of the day and night. It is generally admitted that this is the worst strip of roadway from Timmins to the south. The rest of the way to Kirkland Lake is in pretty good shape 'and from Swastika south it is also reâ€" ported as not too rotten. In regard to the policing of the Ferâ€" guson highway in its southern section, it is announced that Constable Roth, who in 1928 was located in the North, will have the centre section, from Temagami to Kirkland Lake, this year, and Constable Berard will operate, as before, out of North Bay in all direcâ€" tions. Constable Roth reached district headquarters at Cobalt last week from Toronto, riding his machine and averâ€" aging close to 40 miles per gallon of gasoline. Kirkland Lake is planning at present to establish a branch of the Victorian Order of Nurses there with one nurse to start the service at that town.
