Discussing Sir Arthur Currie‘s adâ€" dress to the Canadian Legion some days ago, The Mail and Empire says:â€" Sir Arthur Currie‘s address at the St. Thomas banquet of the Canadian Legion was truly a good word in season. It was the right kind of message for a Canadian of his distinction to deliver to an assemblage of Canadian men who, under his command, had rendered the highest service that patriots could render to their country. If Sir Arthur were the most eloquent ‘of men, no speech he could deliver would more than feebly express the spirit of proved devotion to country that inspired the men of the Canadian corps on the batâ€" tlefields of Europe.

At the same time it had more | cause for genuine boast in the number \of its publicâ€"spirited citizensâ€"men of talent, men of wealth, men of ability, who served the public with success and generosity. Many of Renfrew‘s leadâ€" ing citizens were men of outstanding merit whose fame ran far beyond the | boundaries of the town. i Among these may be noted I. E. Pedâ€" \low, a noted merchant, who was no ‘crdina:'y merchant. He built up a | nctable business by openly defying imail order competition. While other local merchants feared the mail order | houses and sought support on the fairâ€" plea of local loyalty, I. E. Pedâ€" low attacked and stopped their inroads ;cn his field by using their own big | weaponâ€"advertising. Time and again, |\he advertised his own prices alongside \the mail order catalogue prices, and showed that the local merchant who was a genius at his business could more than meet any compétition that might arise. He featured the cash business, | which is another cornerâ€"stone of the ‘departmental store. When local merâ€" ‘chants questioned as to whether they would have early closing on this day or that.â€"I. E. Pedlow settled the question | by closing every day, except Saturday, t s iwmter and summer at 5 p.m. He did not wait to see if others would folâ€" low suit. His idea was that he could. meet any move of the mail order conâ€". cerns. The fact that for over forty years his store was an outstanding leader in Eastern Ontario and noted in commercial circles for its success and steady expansion, proved that he was right. I. E. Pedlow gave an energy, ability and industry, far from ordinary . to his business, but he still had time to give to the public service of the town and district. He served for many years on the Renfrew Fair Association, the hospital board, the school board, and other public bodies and communâ€"â€" ity services. No worthy cause failed to elicit his aid. For one term he was member of parliament in the Dominion House for Renfrew county. His active life may well be summed up by a paraâ€" i _ The Krugerdorf correspondent of The Englehart Times says:â€""Mr. A. V. 'Knott is also discovering new minerals ,for the district so that every day in |every way we are growing better and |better.

It also operates a 2,000â€"ton smelter at Rouyn, where several millions of dollars have already been spent on construction and development work, and it is deriving considerable revenue from its merchant ment work. In addition, the company is enlarging .its scope of operations ‘in the British Columbia field, taking in new power development projects, the production of sulphur and fertilizer, and has recently acquired Norwegian patents for refining nickel. The comâ€" pany controls the largest lead, zinc and silver mine in the world at Kimberley, its copper production is steadily exâ€" panding, and the potential markets for its products cover the world. Despite the improved condition of the roads this week, through the beneâ€" ficent effect of the weather, only a comparatively few motorists are comâ€" ing through here from the far south. Many are coming as far as New Lisâ€" keard. The idea of travelling so far north and turning round to go back the selfâ€"same route does not appeal. When the road is completed from Timâ€" mins to Sudbury, and belt line of roads thus provided for the North not only will Timmins then receive a greatâ€", ly increased proportion of tourists trade, but the whole North will beneâ€" fit as well, tourists coming from the west as well as the east and south.

On the 400â€" foot level no less than 400 feet of work has been done on the main vein.
