To assist us in our work we are openâ€" ing up our list for honorary meimbers for 1930. We have already made noteworthy start as the following letâ€" ters will show:â€"â€" personal good wishes Mr. A. E. Mortimer, Timmins, Ont Dear Sir:â€"Replying tCc of the 23rd inst, I beg tC will ccrtainly please me tC Dear Sir:â€"Replying to your favour of the 23rd inst, I beg to state that it will cortainly please me to be placed on your list as honorary member of your Legion. I am enclosing herewith my cheque for $10.00. It is a small conâ€" tribution, but the calls that are made on me are so numerous that I must try to divide as justly as I can, but on the other hand, you can rest assured, that I am making it sincerely and Joyâ€" fully, because I ain in a position to know as to how good your activities aro. Wishing you in all things, all the success that you so fully deserve. I remain, Yours Very Truly, Our thanks go forward to the Honâ€" ourable Chas. McCrea, Minister of Mines, and Mr. Jos. Bradette, M.P., for so nobly coming forward as honorary members, of Timmins Post 88, and with such a good start our 1930 list of honâ€" orary members should be a record one in the history of the Legion in Porâ€" cupine. I expect during the next month to hear from a comrade that we all are proud of, and whose unselfish work, and great interest in his comrades of the Great War is known throughout the British Empire, whose name we will hold a secret.for the present. We are indesed very fortunate to have our list headed by a member of the Dominion, and Provincial Houses of Parliament. We have sent out during the last week a personal letter and an appliâ€" cation form to some of our comrades who are not in the Legion. We hope to have the application form returned filled in and our list of members boostâ€" ed. The excuse to "keep out" is hard to find, and there are many good reaâ€" sons for ‘"coming in." * L2 t t We have also asked several gentleâ€" men to join our list of honorary memâ€" bers. Many gentlemen did not get "over there," but they helped to carry on "at home," and we now ask them to to help us to "carry on," by joining our list of honorary members. It makes our work much lighter, when we have good support. Many gave their lives, their health" We onl e n en + + Many gave their lives, their health" their homes, their happiness" their best, for their King and Country, and in asking these gentlemen to come forâ€" ward, we are asking but a little of what was given by the men of His Majesty‘s Forces, when they so nobly came forâ€" ward in the hour of need. Dpuring the next week many of our members will receive a letter explaining the sections from 33 to 37 of the conâ€" stitution of the Canadian Legion of the British Empire Service League. It is our intention to strictly adhere to those sections as we cannot carry on "on wind," we must have something more "substantial." We have a note of interest in We have a note of interest in the Ontario Provincial convention at St. Thomas, Ontario, 1928. Moved by. Comrade McKay, seconded by Comâ€" rade A. Neame (our president):â€" Whereas, there appears to be an oversupply of labour in proportion 1to the amount of work available; and whereas large numbers of exâ€"service men are seeking employment in comâ€" petition with men other than subjects of the Empire; and whereas the policy of the Canadian Government has been, and still it, to give exâ€"service men the preference in matters of employment, other things being equal. @t V Em o6 esd > L Be it resolved that employers of labour the Provincial Government and Municipal bodies be urged to extend to exâ€"service men the same preference in matters of employment as the Fedéral Government has doneâ€"Carried Our president, when he seconded this motion had a good idea of what he was seconding and the thanks of the Post are extended to him for sticking up for the preference for exâ€"service men. Here is another one: Moved by Comrade McKay; seconded by Comrade McKinlay. That this convention desires to exâ€" press appreciation of the action of "Those Employers who Recognize the Principle of Employing Exâ€"service men" in as many places as possible on their staffs:â€"Carried. Well comrades it‘s a hard old world, but we are slowly driving the thin end of the wedge home. If we keep on tapâ€" ping the wedge the deeper it will go and one of these days we will wake up to find that our services "over there" are being slowly rcognized.

LINE A gentleman who has been read Aasg the column, "Ten Years Ago in Timâ€" mins‘" in The Advance each week says that this paper has changed its opinâ€" ion about the T. N. O. Railway in the past few years As a matter of fact it is not The Advance that has changed, but the service of the T. N. 0. Those who endured the service, or lack of service of the T. N. 0. ten or twelve years ago, are certainly in posiâ€" tion to appreciate the service of toâ€"day. The present service may not be perâ€" fect in this imperiect world, but it surely is good. It is so good when comâ€" pared to the oldâ€"time ways of doing things on the T. N. O. that it apâ€" pears to be very close to perfection. Of course, everything is relative, and to think of the service a dozen years or so ago is to realize how satisfactory is the service of toâ€"day. A good exâ€" ample of the change in T. N. O. service in the past fifteen years is given in the following paragraph from The Nugget fyles of Nov. 26th, 1914 "Although the new time table effecâ€" tive Nov. 29 over the Temiskaming and Northern Ontario Railway has not been distributed to the various stations, the main changes have been announced by the railway officials. All Sunday service is to be suspended. The Grand Trunk announced the suspension of the Cobalt special on Sundays. Nos. 1 and 2 will not run on the Sabbaith. This will entirely isolate the North country on Sunday." ' London (Eng.) Public Opinicn:â€"A baby in Prague lived for two months without a brain. Looking around us, it is not a record.

I remain here Your Cousin, PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Fritz Fritz The New Liskeard Speaker last week says:â€"‘"The news that Mr. E. W. Necâ€" lands, one of New Liskeard‘s residents 0o: many years, and an engineer of reâ€" coznized ability, had accepted a posiâ€" tion which places him in charge of the roads of Newfoundland, will be receivâ€" ed by our readers with general regret at first reading. This regret will be occasioned by the fact that his ccepâ€" tance loses to the district, a man who is eminently fAitted to be of great value to the province and Ontarto can ill afford to lose the services of men of his ability. However, we understand that Mr. Neeland‘s appointment carries with NEW LISKEARD MAN TAKES rPoOsITION IN NEWFOUNDLAND it advantages which make for a greater future success and as a consequence his advancement. Mr. Neslands exâ€" pects to assume charge of the roads of Newfoundland in the early spring and the family do not anticipaite leavâ€" ing New Liskeard until later on in the coming summer. The departure of Mr. and Mrs. Neelands and their two boys and little daughter will be very sincerely regretted by all our citizens."
