St. Paul St. W., Montrea [ pt. / North Land So Large That Particulars are Necessary Northern Ontario is so large that indefinite references to happenings here are liable to cause difficulties and anxiety. A recent case in point was where an item from west of Fort Wilâ€" liam in some way or another acquired a Cochrane date line with the result that the place name of "Duck Lake" or some such designation for the small place referred to in the item seemed to be near Cochrane. Even some of the North Land newspapers themselves published the item in its misleading guise. As it was the story of an acciâ€" dental death it is easy to understand how relatives and friends might vainâ€" ly seek around Cochrane for particvâ€" lars that would not be available. There does appear to be necessity for partiâ€" News Items About the North Liable to Cause Unnecessary Anxiety Unless Location is Definitely Indicated. Samâ€" ples of Two Indefinite References to Places. The Eight Big Districts of Northern Ontario. does appear to be necessity for pariliâ€" cularization of locations in reference to items about the North Land. This North is actually four times the size of Old Ontario and to simply place a happening in the North is to conâ€" fuse the issue beyond all reason. Reâ€" cont references to the "bush fires in the North" prove the point at issue. The New Liskeard Speaker last week took up this question in very effecâ€" tive way, and its lengthy front page editorial is we!ll worth repeating in full. The New Liskeard Speaker in torial is we!ll woOrth repealing in 3 The New Liskeard Speaker in s connection says:â€" Last week the Northern press had correct a false report started by ne city paper to the effect that, owâ€" : to bush fires in New Ontario it was safe to undertake a motor trip over Ferguson highway.

This may be a "small way" of looking at the matter, but what else can one say when the fact that a bush fire which raged in a bush along the northwest shore of Lake Superior was all the excuse some Southern pavers had for saying bush fires raged along the road to Temiskaming. There were no fires raging nearer than five hunâ€" dred miles off the highway referred to "We do not wish to play the Sit Oracle role, so we hesitate to suggest that the time has arrived for the disâ€" trict press to cease referring to Temisâ€" kaming as "New Ontario," which, to the people of the south, means the Northland of Ontario. In this region there are eight organized districts, anâ€" alagous to countries in the south exâ€" thing unusual occurs only name the place â€" occurred but also the that the same definite given when publishin{ tario news except the "district‘" for "county.‘ "Here is a sample of "Here is a sample of how city dailies give the news of the Northland: "A New Ontario despatch says a trapper named Solomon Levi was drowned in Duck Chute." Solomon Levi may not have had many acquaintances in Souâ€" thern Ontario, but he had a mother who was distracted about the news not knowing how to get any further inâ€" formation. Had the news item stated what district Duck Chute was in, a "Temiskaming District: This distric lies north of Nipissing and Sudbur districts and west of the Quebec boun dary.

"Recently we noticed the following item which is credited to the Edmonâ€" ton Journal: "When a canoeist threw a match on the oilâ€"covered surface of a lake in Northerm Ontario an aeroâ€" plane was destroyed. It is coming to a pretty state of affairs when a man can‘t even fling a match into a lake without starting a fire. "The story may or may not be true. The territory in New Ontario is so great in extent that anything might happen in one part without the pseople of other parts ever hearing about it. But the news item above given emâ€" phasizes the need of reporters and the people generally becoming familiar with the names and locations of the eight organized districts, and the need for mentioning the names of these districts when wiring or mailling news to the press."
