Yours truly, E. M. LITTLE, Chairman, Iroquois Falls Hockey Comâ€" mission. We have given you herein a few of our thoughts in connection with the present unfortunate hockey mixup. It is our opinion that there is only one just solution to the difficulty, that there the passage of the motion but we quesâ€" tion the wisdom of its continuing in force. This opinion is given without any feeling of malice towards the Porâ€" cupine club and as our belief that it is in the best interests of the game. Putting a team of senior calibre back to a series of intermediate calibre can never prove anything but detrimental to the intermediates. We repeat that conditions in 1924 may have warranted A. finalist had been declared in the inâ€" termediate series. While nothing can be done about it this season, and while conditions may have made it justifiable in 1924, we do not consider the motion in question fair to intermediate teams at present in the association. If we . hope to develop hockey teams in the North, groupnigs should be arranged such that teams will stay in their class the longest possible time during the season. Thus in the writer‘s opinion the only basis on which Porcupine, ostensibly a senior team, should be allowed to compete for the Gordon Cup, would be after an N.O.H. We have wired you today that we have withdrawn our intermediate team from competition. We have been drawn against the winnér â€"of the Porcupineâ€" Kirkland Lake playoff. There is no local interest in a playoff between our intermediates and the Porcupine seniors should they win from Kirkland, and we have therefore withdrawn our inâ€" termediate entry. | We are most anxious to insure the | continuation of hockey in Iroquois Falls ’ and to keep this club, as it has been in ! the past, one of the most active memâ€" ,’ bers in the association. But, a decision to allow Porcupine by winning the inâ€" termediate series, to again meet our senior team would be so unjust that _we would have no recourse other than the withdrawal of the Iroquois Falls: club from the association, lock stock and barrel. We have the unanimous approval of the town, our team and the club executive in this decision. We j are convinced that all fairminded sport followers are solidly behind us in this matter. We have it directly from Mr. Campâ€" bell that the motive which prompted the motion in question was exactly as outlined above. The intention was not then, and surely could never be, to permit any one team an unfair adâ€" vantage. We understand Mr. Campbell has written you giving the history and purpose of the disputed motion and it is to be hoped the N.O.H.A. executive will not permit Porcupine a second chance. To do so would be an inexâ€" cusable blunder. ' | the seniors, there was no possibility of a beaten senior team, reverting to inâ€" termediate with the possibility of again meeting the senior team by whom they have previously been elminated. 1 "The distance from the railroad is not ~extreme. They are all on the Northwest arm of Temagami Lake exâ€" cept the Austin Bay range. The iron range commencing at Temagami staâ€" tion is the extreme eastern limit of iron ore and has been the place where a great many people have taken samâ€" ples as it was more convenient. The _ore was very lean in this particular spot. Had they gone twenty chains further to the west they would have got good iron ore continuous for five miles and a half by government report. It is not neccessary for people at North Bay to depend on iron ore other than the Temagami ores, as there is an immense tonnage of ore there, and convenient. The only trouble about it is that it is too close." ceived great benefit from it. I urge my friends to take it as I am sure they will receive the same help I did." â€"Mrs. Milton McMullen, V anessa, ore and are the largest deposits of iron in Northern Ontario and reported as such by the late Dr. Miller, provincial geologist in a mines report of 1901. He says in one part that anyone wanting ore would do well to investigate the Temagami iron ores. The late Dr. Barâ€" low reported that some of the rich veins contain as high as 55 per cent. metallic iron and that large quanities would yun 40 to 45 per cent. and also specimen that he took showing 42.80 metallic iron, and passed through the magnetic separator produced 65.20 per cent. metallic iron, no sulphur, no phosphorus. There are in Temagami four ranges of iron, the northâ€"east arm, the Vermilion range, the Koâ€"Koâ€"Ko and the Austin Bay range. "I think Lydia E. Pinkham‘s Vegetable Compound is wonderful! I have had six children of which four are living and my youngest is a bonâ€" nie baby boy now cight months old who weighs 23 pounds.

The iron ores of Temagami are a bessemer at that time iron ores containing titaâ€" nium were practically worthless. Toâ€" day they are more valuable, hence the reâ€"staking. Assays have been obtained of the above iron 47.40 metallic iron and 22,30 of titanium. The values o‘ the titanium in this case are high. The ore is a massive magnetite which carries a high percentage of titanium, which makes it a much more valuable ore, as there is a very large demand for titanium alloys. Some years ago this same iron ore body was staked, but D. O‘Conner and his men have reâ€" turned from the final stakings of the iron range east of Kenney station, after staking twentyâ€"seven claims in the townships of Flett and Angus. This is less than forty miles due north of North Bay, and three miles and a half from the T. and N. O. Railway. This iron ore is continuous for over two niles and a half, and a width of from 300 to 800 feet wide: in one place as wide as 1,000 feet.

Here, the experts, who have been folâ€" lowing the spread of the fever in the United Sats, and who last fall procured a culture from the public health serâ€" vice at Washington for purposees of cheécking up any possible infection in this province, diagnosed the Timmins case as tularaecmia. "Extreme care will be urged in the dressing of wild rabbits, the chief source of infection determined by United States medical authorities, and that from which the sole Timmins case, is believâ€" ed to have contracted the trouble. No dressing of these animals should be done without the use of rubber gloves. D adine uraiirime rels, muskrats, opposums, and quail. The Timmins case developed by infection while skinning two wild rabbits The Timmins case has roused very general notice and coment. Because it was the first case to be reported in Canada it has naturally come in for extended attention from all Canadian newspapâ€" ers. United States newspapers ha.ve; also given much space to the case. A reader of The Advance has handed in the following clipping from the Bufâ€" falo Sunday Times of recent date referring to the case. The Buffao Sunday Times saysâ€" I“Tularaemia, a serious type of fever common to most sections of the Unitâ€" ed States, but ‘hitherto unknown in Canada, has made its appearance at Timmins and is already engaging the serious attention of the provincial deâ€" partment of health, under the direcâ€" tion of Hon. Dr. Forbes Godfrey. Imâ€" mediate campaigns, by means of cirâ€" culars and instruction from the varâ€" lous local medical officers of health, will be undertaken by the department to educate the public to the symptoms |" and dangers of the new disease. §2 In the «issue of The Advance on Jan. 16th, 1930, there was reéeference made to the case of tularemia at Timâ€" mins, the first recorded case of this disease in Canada, though it is becomâ€" ing increasingly common in the United States and other countries. Canada‘s first reported case of this disease was diagnosed by Dr. L. Hudson, of Timâ€" mins. Dr. Hudson‘s diagnosis was conâ€" | firmed by other medical men and by the laboratory tests as well as by the provincial board of health.

Tickâ€"bite and horseâ€" fAlyâ€"bite are also sources of infection, according to the Washington public health service. ‘These sources are also being made the subject of study by the Queen‘s Park laboratories." "As a rule," runs the information, "when the infection has come from a rabbit, some injury has been inflicted upon the hand while dressing the rabâ€" bit, although a manifest injury is not necessary for infection, accompanied by enlargement of lymph glands, which drain the ulcer. Fever is always preâ€" sent and continues for two or three weeks. One attack confers immunity in a man. Rest in bed is the most important treatment." | "Dr. Godfrey described the infection as a most miserable trouble" and was inclined to anticipate further cases in this province, in view of the fact that ‘cooked, is harmless for food and inâ€" fected rabbits, kept frozen for 30 days, have also been found to be free from infection. Even more impressive is the stateâ€" ment that the rate of interest earned on the mean invested assets has risen to 7.02(7(. This figure includes a cerâ€" tain amount from bonuses and stock privileges accruing on some of the Company‘s holdings, but if these were entirely eliminated the rate would still be 6.60 0. . Such a remarkably successful year by our leading life assurance company favourably reflects the sound conditions in general Canadian business. ts .. 1 3 CVJ or benefit of pblicyholdéxlé gxceeds the total amount received from them in premiums by $139,290,000. ___In connection with the item of $69,â€" 174,892 paid to policyholders and beneâ€" ficiaries for death claims, matured enâ€" dowments, profits, etc., it is interesting to note that not only have payments under this head since organization reached the sum of $419,674,000, but that this amount, together with the amount at present held for the security or benefit Of The undivided surplus has been inâ€" creased by $5,868,000, bringing the total over liabilities, contingency accounts and capital stock to more than $60,â€" 000,000. The assets of the Company were inâ€" creased by nearly $80,000,000. They now stand at $568,000,000. lhe income of the Company, $172, 850,000 (an increase of over $28,000,000 over 1928), is $15,000,000 more than the entire customs revenue of the Dominion in 1928. € , The new paidâ€"for business for the year shows an increase of $213,200,000, ’or 486/( of an increase over the precedâ€" ing year. This increase is greater than the total business written in 1925. The actual new paidâ€"for business was $654,â€" 450,000. This is an amazing showing considering the conditions that preâ€" vailed during the latter part of 1929, and reveals what a wide and efficient organization has been created by Sun life Company, and how thoroughly it enjoys public confidence. | President Macaulay upon that occaâ€" sion expressed confidence that the moâ€" mentum then acquired would carry the Company to even more surprising achievements in the next decade. But it is doubtful if even the President of the Company, himself, who personifies confidence and optimism, could have foreseen that the second billion would be surpassed within four years. Yet this is what has happened. The anâ€" nual report of the Sun Life Company published toâ€"day shows that the total assurances now in force are close to two and a half billion, or $2,401,000,000. Some idea of the magnitude of these figures may be gleamed from the fact that they exceed the total net national debt of the Dominion by more than $100,000,000. It is only four years since, for the first time in the history of life insurâ€" ance in Canada, a Canadian Company was able to announce over a billion dollars of assurance in force, The event was properly celebrated by the Company in question, Sun Life Assurâ€" ance Company of Canada, and evoked much gratified comment from public men, financiers and journalists, as well as creating general satisfaction among the Canadian public. It was regarded as a signal achievement in a little more than fifty years of that Company‘s hisâ€" tory. Nearly 50 p.c.
