Speaking for the second oldest mining corpora- tion in Ontarioâ€"if, perhaps. not the richestâ€" he could safely state that. of all the dealings he from time to time had with the Dominion authorities and those of all the other Provinces, those, with Ontario convinced him that “here was the finest mines administration of It never paid. said Mr. Hammeli. to play politics with Mr. Gibson.

Why. they call him ‘Old Rock of Gibraltar.’ ” J. P. Watson, President of the Mining Corporation of Canada. Limited. spoke neatly to the toast of “The Financial Side of Mining." and W. C. Noxon. Agent-General for the Province in Lon- don.

There had been no scandalsâ€"no incidents of a disreput- able natureâ€"“no Teapot Dome stories.“ From Dr. Charles Camsell, Deputy Minister of the Dominion Department of Mines. the gathering heard the story of the cordial and satisfactory relations between the Federal and Provincial de- partmentsâ€"and how the Dominion of- ficals. almost invariably. looked to the Ontario mining regulations. the On- tario mining tax and the Ontario this and that in selecting policy for appli- cation elsewhere. At the banquet last week the Premier of Ontario. Hon. G. Howard Ferguson, was one of those expressing in no un- certain way the appreciation felt for the services of Mr. Gibson. It was customary. he pointed out. to superannuate civil servants of 70 years of age unless their services were indis- pensable. Mr. Gibson’s services fel within that category. And the Govern- ment. by Order-inâ€"Council. had paid his work the recognition it meritedâ€" had given him freer rein and greater scope in which to offer that decision and direction that had proved invalua able in the past and was so essential to the country's future mining advance- ment. Last week's testimonal dinner was. as Sir William Mulock. Administrator of the Province. expressed it. “a little gathering," but. it was “big“ in motive. and rich in that spirit of camaraderie which signifies one man's regard for the accomplishments of another.

After the nuptial knot had been tied an informal reception was held at the home of the bride's parents, Georgina avenue. where many guests were re- ceived. Mrs. Geo. T.

ON T. On the trip down we left Timmins at 3.30 a.m.. and travelling at a safe pace. we found the roads fairly good to R3- more. Another party, who were going to the some distant cit-y, passed us on the road at a very fast speed near Hoyle. At the first bill this side of Ramore we found them in the ditch, the man of the party having gone to a farm for a team to pull them out. From there on I used up fifty feet of rope which I had to 'wind around my rear wheels to reach Ramore. At this town I put on chains, which helped us on our way to the first bridge past the Dane road. At Swastika a. party struck our car broadside, owing no doubt to his faulty brakes or the greasy road. This did slight damage to one mudâ€" guard. smashing the mud-guard on the right. Had I been travelling even ten miles an hour we would certainly have brok- en through and another wreck would have been reported. When a wreck happens, how often do we hear it said that the driver must have been drunk. Take it from me. Mr. Editor. if this were always the case, then there must have been plenty of liquid drank last Saturday night, for there were at least twelve cars stuck in the ditch between Timmins and Ramore on Sunday. We need roads! Yes. but I’m sure the motorists of the North would be only too pleased if the Government would fix up the roads that we have. For instance. why do they keep scrapâ€" ing the mud from out of the ditches to put it right on the very centre of the roads until it is like a ball. It is no wonder so many cars are ditched. It Dear Sir:â€"â€"Two weeks ago I read in your paper an article with reference to the building of a direct road to Shillington from 'I‘immins. If ever one wished for this road, I did when re- turning to Timmins last Sunday night. After travelling from 3.30 am. all day. and then to know we had to travel around 75 miles. when by building a stretch of road only 25 miles. we could have saved almost two hours of treach- erous driving. Getting back onto the highway after going into the village of Dane. we headed for Charlton. Coming to the first bridge. which is at the foot of a steep graderâ€"and most of these bridges usually areâ€"I used the brakes only enough, so that I would not skid onto the side of the road at the bottom. This bridge, like many others, has a couple of 8-inch planks running length- wise. which when dry are a comfort to drive along and a help to the bridge itself. But when wet these planks are very dangerous. After getting safely onto the planks, the left front wheel struck a stone. throwing bot-h wheels crosswise of the bridge and putting the rear wheels at an angle so that they skidded. and we struck the railing. is almost impossible to keep on the roads when they are dry, so is it any wonder that we find cars in the ditch on wet days. Another danger is the lack of gravel on all the hills leading to a bridge. It is dangerous enough when the bridge is in a fair line with the road. But how many of the bridges are in such position to the road? Most of them are at an angle, so that one has to all- most stop to get on them. Then, if one does put on his brakes to slow up. he finds his rear wheels off the road. and for want of gravel it is almost im- possible to get onto the bridge without taking part. of the railing away. or go- ing down into the river. To the Editor The Advance. Timm'ms The following letter dealing with the condition of the roads in this North explains itself:â€" I may add that we met a cow moose on the highway near Ramore. She ran a couple of hundred yards off from the road and stopped, perhaps. to wonder what kind of her breed our car was when I tooted our horn. After travelling in all 252 miles, we landed in Tlrnmlns at 8.15 pm. a weary Motorist Refers to Several Dangerous Places on the Ferguson Highway. Repairs Very Necessary.
