The famiâ€" ly dare not use them,. and the guests, usually trained in the same manner in their own homes, also refrain for no other reason than "What is good enough for the host is good enough for me." Durham Chronicleâ€"It has been said that "actresses may in the best of fmalies." Another enigma is: "Why the guest towel?" Every family may not have an actress, but nearly every family has a set of guest towels. Why? Nobody uses them, not even the guests. We all know the lineâ€"up of towels on the rack near the bathâ€"tu». There are the ones for the family and We also interviewed the Department of Northern Development with regard to payments which have been held up on the Government grant towards payâ€" ing d@one last year, and we have since been assured that the account has gone forward to the Treasurer‘s Deâ€" partment for payment. We also inâ€" trrviewed the Department of Health with regard to the slimes, and the Forâ€" estry Branch with reference to cutting and burning of slash around the Kirkâ€" land Lake Townsite. He intimated that some restrictions might be placed upon any increase granted to the Municipalities of tax on income and suggested that it might be possible to build a reserve fund for the redemption of school debentures which are guaranteed by the Government. The delegation was not able to see the Premier until late on Priday afterâ€" noon, when after the session, Hon. Mr. Ferguson and Hon. Mr. McCrea met the delegation. Hon. Mr. McCrea introâ€" duced the delegation, submitted a sumâ€" mary of their requests and the Premier gave a very sympathetic hearing to the representations made on behalf of in different municipalities. At the close of the interview, which lasted unâ€" til 6 o‘clock, Mr. Ferguson stated that he was in sympathy with the requests made and that he realized the diffhâ€" of the mining municipalities, He promised that the matter of the taxability of income from invested surâ€" plus would be given to the Governâ€" ment‘s legal advisors for a solution, and Mr. McCrea stated that he would have experts investigate ‘the matter of the change in the divisicn of the tax levied on mines profits as between the Municipality and the Government. At the close of the interview, Mr. Mcâ€" Crea expressed himself as being in sympathy with the requests, and proâ€" mised that he would go into the matter carefully and would try to arrange for a meeting with Hon. G. Howard Ferâ€" guson at as early a date as possible. The next day the delegation, consistâ€" ing of the Reeve, Clerk and Solicitor of the Township of Tisdale; the Clerk and Solicitor of the Town of Timmins; the Mayor of the Town of Cobalt, and the Reeve, Clerk and Solicitor of the Township of Teck. ‘A. F. Kenning, M. L.A., and A. J. Kennedy, M.L.A., met the Hon. Charles McCrea. Mr. Galâ€" lagher acted as spokesman C the deleâ€" gation and introduced the topic in genâ€" eral â€" The Township of Teck had a written brief prepared, which was subâ€" mitted to Mr. McCrea, together with photographs, showing taxation condiâ€" tions in the municipality. Mr. McCrea read the brief and also listened to verâ€" bal representations made by different members of the delegation. Mr. Mickle the Mines Assessor, was also present at the interview. 2. That for assessment purposes the income from invested surplus from Mining Companies should be assessâ€" able in the Municipality where the main operation of the mine is located. All of the Municipalities agreed that nothing should be asked that would increase the taxes at present paid by the Mining Companies. 1.

Montgomery, clerkâ€"treasurer of the town, and W. O. Langdon, town soliciâ€" tor in the case, these two being memâ€" bers of a delegation interviewing Hon. Chas. McCrea, Minister of Mines for the province, Hon. G. Howard Ferguson the premier of Ontario, and, others. The delegation from the North includâ€" ed representatives from South Porcuâ€" pine, Timmins, Kirkland Lake, Cobalt. The object of the visit was to secure from the Government more equitabile treatment in regard to mines income tax. The reeve, clerk and solicitor from the township of Teck were among the delegates, and the report they preâ€" sented to the meeting of the Teck council at Kirkland Lake last week will be of general interest for its sumâ€" mary of the interview at Toronto. This report as given in The News last week is as follows:â€" Memcorandum in Regard to Delegation In Re Provincial Government ‘And Mines Income Tax A preliminary meeting of the repreâ€" sentatives of the municipalities interâ€" ested, was held and Charles Gallagher, Rseve of the Towhship of Tisdale, was appointed to act as spokesman of the delegation at the mgeting with the Government. xt It was decided to ask the Governâ€" ment for the following:â€" Premier Ferguson Promised Favourable Consideration. Government Exâ€" perts Will Study the Situation. Assurances Given by Govâ€" ernment. STATEMENT OF GASE FOR MINING TOWNS OF NORTH No matter "But to come back to the heading, "How Time Flies." Is it because some of our subscribers forget how time flies, that they are in arrears for The Speakâ€" er? After our radio license experience we thought we must have subscribers who are having our experienceâ€"not realising the passing of time." "The Speaker has always been active in proclaiming the greatness of the Northland. We were never more proud of the North than we are are present. We have had but one policy in this regard. We do not expect to have any other policy than that of making known the excellence of the élay belt and the wealth of the mineral areas. so until we now have a very complete outfit which could not be replaced for several times the criginal outlay. With continued support we shall continue to improve out facilities for not only the publishing features of our business but also the job printing branch. the publication of The Speaker with a plant not worth more than about two thousand dollars, in order to keep pace with changed conâ€" ditions and keep upâ€"toâ€"date we have had to add to our outfit from time to time as we were financially able to do ‘"We have on several anniversary occasions referred to The Speaker, its increasing usefulness in proclaiming the developed and undeveloped wealth of Northern Ontario, and its popularity as a home paper, a very welcome visitor in so many Temiskaming homes, and we need not reiterate. "Then, our next surprise came when we were advised that this issue of The Speaker will be No. 2. vol. XXV. Yes. Althought it seems but yesterday when in cur little office on Sharp street we issued the first number of The Speaker, yet nearly a quarter of a century has rolled round since then. "Said a friend to us: "Have you paid your radio license fee? Two men were fined on Tuesday for not having been able to produce their license receipts." Our answer was: "Sure we have paid for our radio license. It seems to us we have been paying for it several times every year sinceâ€" we got it. We must now be at least one year ahead." But when we looked up our receipt we saw in plain black and white that we had only paid until the end of the present month. Then we exclaimed as above "How time flies." As a preface to the interesting arâ€" ticle from The New Liskeard Speaker, as given herewith, The Advance would like to extend congratulations and good wishes to The Speaker on the comâ€" mencement of its twentyâ€"fifth volume. A quarter of a century is a long time in this young country. The Speaker is the North Land‘s oldest publication and the other newspapers have good reason to be proud of New Liskeard‘s newsâ€" paper. lt has ability, enterprise, fairâ€" ness and goodchumour. On these qualiâ€" ties it has built its permanence, and the success of The Speaker in reality is as much a compliment to its communâ€" ity as to to its publishers and editor. A people with a newspaper like The Speaker have no necessity to make many apologies. As stated at the start, these remarks are a preface to the folâ€" lowing paragraphs from the last issue of The New Liskeard Speaker:â€" "When the new extension of the T. N. O. reaches Blacksmith Rapids the tracks will run within a half mile of the scene of operations, he said, and there is every possibility of this being accomplished by the middle of the sumâ€" mer. "It is learned that construction of the extension will be commenced immeâ€" diately and that the tiesâ€" will be laid on the snow, to be ballasted later. This is the same procedure that was folâ€" lowed during the construction of the Hudson Bay Railway in Northern Manitoba between The Pas and Churchill. The T. N. O. is calling now for two work train crews to be on the job when operations commence." "Of conditions at the scene of cperâ€" ations, Mr. McMillan states that no shaft sinking has been undertaken yet. The coal sent out has been mined near the outcrop, where is can be â€"gotten out without much difficulty. Drilling operations to determine the extent of the deposits are still being carried on and there are about 50 men employed. The distance from the present railway is just 25 miles and there is a good winter road. Comfortable camps have been erected and in spite of the disâ€" tance north, it is quite a nice place to be, according to Mr. McMillan. TIME FLIES FOR NEWSPAPERS AS WELL AS FOR INDIVIDUALS week for a few days. Mr. McMillan left again for the north yesterday and expects to continue there until such time as there may be a change in the policy of the Department in the handâ€" ling of the coal deposits at least. "Mr. McMillan states that there is now a substantial shipment of lignite which has been brought out and is to undergo an exhaustive test to deterâ€" mine definitely the quality of the proâ€" duct and its adaptability to the needs of the Province. Personally, he is quite satisfied that the coal is going to be of great importance and that it will fill a long felt need in Ontario. The first carload was shipped on Saturday and contained 40 tons.
