The following was among the front page items in The Advance ten years ago:â€"In his sermon Sunday evening on "Why Men Fail in Business," Rev. J. D. Parks gave as the leading reason for failure lack of the right kind ol character, extending on, this idea to show how dishonest practices, vanity, lack of courage, discourtesy and other attributes caused by lack of the right character worked to cause failure. He also showed how true character might be developed so that men might make a success of life in the truest sense. On Sept. 23rd, 1919, Iroquois Falls came to Timmins to play the second game in the series for the Wills Baseâ€" ball Cup. The Iroquois Falls team won the game with a score of 3 to 2, and by this victory also won the Wills Cup The game was a thrilling one and there was great enthusiasm among the big crowds present. The Hollinger put up a splendid fight for the game and The Advance at the time said that had it not been for a couple of "breaks" the Hollinger would have won the game. The Advance referred to some of the outstanding features of the game. these including:â€"the excellent work of Lefty.

The Advance ten years ago gave Constable W. Raycroft, of Tisdale, due credit for clever work in tracking down a Russian with a foreign name and several foreign and English aliases. The man with the many names was wanted for forgery, burglary, wounding and whatâ€"haveâ€"you. . Constable Rayâ€" croft eventually captured his man at North Bay after chasing him around this North country. The annual report of the McIntyre Porcupine Mines, Limited, as issued ten yars ago, was a very satisfactory one. The report showed that the net prog fits for the year ending June 30th, 1916, had increased to $683,350.00, as against $680,361.00 for the previous year. The production of ore was 197, 874 tons oIf an average value of $9.76 per ton, also an increase over the previous year. Development work for the year aâ€" mounted |to 6,637 feet. The ore reâ€" serves were given as $4,777,324.00, as against $4,490,432.00 the previous year. The total assets had increased by half a million, and the surplus stood at $1,â€" 163,731.00, as compared with $872,172.00 for the previous year. "Ssunday afternoon about four 0‘â€" clock,"said The Advance in its issu®e of Sept. 24th, 1919, "the public had a pleasant surprise when aA band under the leadership of Mr. R. Scocco, marchâ€" ed up Third avenue and stopped befors the New Empire theatre where an hour‘s good music was furnished in the open air. A large crowd gathered in a short time to hear the band music and all were pleased with what they heard, This band was a combination of what was formerly the Finlander Band and the Italian Society Band. ‘"What do you think of the Europzan band?" Jimâ€" mie Salomone asked. "That is whail we ought to call itâ€"the European Band," said Jimmy. If Jimmy‘s name is to be accepted then it may be said that the European Band furnished a fine line of good band music. On Sunâ€" day Sept. 14th, the Citizens‘ Band gave their first open air band concert and the citizens were well pleased. Sunday, the European Band gave its first open air band concert and again the people were well pleased. Next, Sunday, the weaâ€" ther being favourable, the Citizens‘ Band will give another open conâ€" cert. The general impressiOh is that a good move was made in combining the Finlander and Italian bands. Perâ€" haps, a further combination of the European Band and the Timmins Citiâ€" zens‘ Band would be a further advanâ€" Ten years ago in the provincial elecâ€" tion contest the Citizens Liberty Leaâ€" gue was a very important factor. The Advance at the time pointed out that there were branches of this league in every city and town in the province and if#uded prominent men and woâ€" ment throughout Ontario. The Adâ€" vance quoted names such as Machin, Hellmuth, Aylesworth, Waer_ ets.. as among the membership. After this preliminary, The Advance s%fl â€" "In this connection it is inte esting.

Timâ€" mins was thus the second town in Onâ€" ‘ario to o'ganlze a Liverty League. It is is‘jors:ting to recall the fact two clever double plays by The Iroquois Falls team did be up to its usual standard, ive been that the playing of is team was specially trective as to make the visiâ€" that Mr. Hylands was the orlginator of the movement that has attained such a wide scope. and whatever of glory, or blame, (as the case may be) the moveâ€" ment may msorit should raflect on the founder, Mr. James Hylands, who is now acting as organizer for the Citiâ€" zens‘ Liberty League of Ontario." A benefit dance under the auspices of the Timmins fire department was given in the Masonic hall, <~Timmins, on Sept. 19th, 1919, and proved a notsoâ€" worthy and outstanding success in every way. The event was for the benefit of a member of the brigade who had been ill for several months. Over $300.00 was ncstted above all expenses. The weather was inclement but there was a big crowd present, and many who could not be present bought ticâ€" kets to show their interest in the briâ€" gade and in the particularly popular member who was in the hospital at the time. The Advance ten years ago said:â€"â€" "On Saturday last the Hollinger Stores brought in a car of fruit which was sold very quickly. All day until the fruit was disposed of there was a busy time around the car. The carload inâ€" cluded choice peaches, pears, apples, grapes, cucumbers, tomatces, COrR, peppers, etc. The employees of" the Hollinger and, McIntyre buying from the car report ‘the fruit as of the finest FV" ¢ n en remecommenme ag # on o m en n mm mm mm mm ce n mm e mm n a~ m mm mm m mmmme oo basket; pears, $1.45 per basket.
