Councillor Dr. S. L. Honey expressed his interest in the band, and compliâ€" mented the band on its present strength despite the fact that the population of a town like this was so transient. He said he saw only two or three present who were in the band seven years ago when he had just heard it. Still the band carried on with success. Humorous stories and wit added to the effectiveness of Dr. Honey‘s pleasing address. Councillor Alfred Caron spoke briefly but pointedly of the advantage of a band to a town, touching on the pleasâ€" ure the people had in listening to the good music at the open air concerts. It was something that everybody could enjoy, and he wished the band continuâ€" ed progress. Austin Neame, president of the Caâ€" nadian Legion here, mentioned the friendly spirit that existed between the band and the Legion, each helping the other whenever they could do so. He referred to the part of a band in comâ€". munity life and its educational and upâ€" lifting value. Band music helps tc. drive away the cares of everyday life: and make pleasure for all. Great proâ€" gress had been made, he thought, Dp the bands in Canada in the past few years, and he referred especially to the fine band music that might be heard at the Toronto exhibition, for instance. He had a special liking for pipe bands and suggested that the Timmins Citiâ€" zens‘ Band might add a pipe band to its organization. Bandsmaster Wilford spoke of the appreciation all the bandsmen felt for the excellent address by Mr. Tucker and for the able support given by the band by the other speakers during the evening. He thanked the band memâ€" bers for the loyalty they had given him and said that without this loyalty proâ€" gress was not possible. Mention was made by the bandmaster of the diffiâ€" culties of practice owing to the men being on different shifts. This Bromptâ€" ed the president to point out that the Hollinger, McIntyre, Coniaurum, Viâ€" pond and other mines had been espeâ€" cially considerate of the band and had been very ready to help in any way practical. The Hollinger at one time had helped get practically all memâ€" bers of the band on day shift, but the band could not follow the plan as the time came when the securing of any employment was more important than the time of the shift. At this stage of the evening, the seâ€" cretary, F. J. Hornby, on behalf of the members of the band, presented the president with a very handsome leaâ€" ther dressing case, with all accessories complete, as a mark of appreciation of the interest given to the band. Alâ€" though completely taken by surprise, the president made appropriate reply, thanking the band boys for their reâ€" membrance and for the pleasant reâ€" lations always existing between the members of the band and the officers. Reference had been made to the value of the services of the police to the band, and Chief McLauchlan was askâ€" ed to say a few words. He compliâ€" mented the band on its good music and said that the officers who attended events to see that order was maintainâ€" ed always found the band concerts enâ€" joyable. Bandsmen _ Herbert Thomas, A. Bough, P. Cherry and others were callâ€" ed upon and made brief addresses exâ€" pressing their interest and support of the band and its leader and officers. During the evening the musical and other numbers were much enjoyed by all.. Community singing was a special feature. For the various numbers W. A. Devine presided very effectively at the piano. A vocal solo by J. B. Pare, until recently a playing member of the band and one of the executive, was greatly appreciated, his effective singâ€" ing of "In the Garden of My Heart" winning a very decided encore. Anâ€" other very much appreciated number was the solo by H. Parnell who also won very distinct recall. The cornet solo by Bandsman H. Vincent was talented piece of work and won much favour. Bandsman P. Cherry never fails to delight all with his piccolo playing, and on Saturday night he was a favourite as usual. Another instruâ€" mental number of merit was the cornet duet by Bandsmen P. Cherry and FP. J. Hornby. An extra special for the evening was the recitation by Capt. Jones whose story of the Yukon was presented in very effective way and much appreciated. The gathering was brought to a close by the singing of "Auld Lang Syne" and "God Save the King," all present agreeing that the event was one of the most enjoyable of the long list of sucâ€" cessful band banquets. Some of the directors of the Hollinâ€" ger Consolidated Gold Mines, Limited, were on a visit to Timmins this week and looked over the mine. The direcâ€" tors here included :â€"Leo Timmins, Jules R. Timmins, W. Bell and J. B. Holden. HOLLINGER DIRECTORS ON VISIT HERE THIS WEEK A very enjoyable dance was given in the Hollinger Recreation hall on Satâ€" urday evening of last week under the auspices of the Cornish Social Club. The Club Royal furnished the best of music and the other features of the evening were all up to the same high standards. The event was well attendâ€" ed and like all other affairs under the same auspices was very thoroughly enâ€" joyed by all attending. FATHER AND SON BANQUET VERY ENJOYABLE EVENT Event in United Church Hall Lasi Thursday Evening Very Largely Atâ€" tended. Interesting and Inâ€" spiring Addresses by Lads and Dads. The annual "Father and Son" banâ€" quet in the United Church hall, Timâ€" mins, on Thursday evening of last week was a very successful and helpful event. There were about a hundred fathers and sons present and all had very happy time and one from which they would both benefit in appreciation of sach other and better understanding. The supper was provided by the G.C.I. T., and the young ladies did great creâ€" dit to themselves by the wellâ€"set tables, the quantity and quality of the food and the excellence of the service. The upper was thoroughly enjoyed by ali. After all the good things to eat had seen dealt with, there was community singing led by Mr. Roberts of the Cenâ€" ‘ral school. This feature was a pleasâ€" ‘ng one and community songs were zery popular. Rev. Bruce Millar preâ€" sided as toastmaster and introduced he event in very happy way with wit ind story. He touched on the purpose f the gathering and the aims and obâ€" jects of the organizations behind it. . Garth Porter in pleasing way proâ€" posed the toast to the King which was responded to in the usual way. "The Church"=â€"was proposed in brief but effective way by Harold Wallingâ€" ford, Rev. Mr. Miller replying. After welcoming the lads and dads Rev. Mr. Millar pointed out that without the boys the future of the church was not assured. He spoke of the free use of the church by the boys, pointing out that through youthful enthusiasm and spirits some damage was done to chairs and other property. "We do not ask you to pay for these things in cash," he said, "but we do hope that you will pay in better citizenship and better lives in the days to come." Ken Tomkinson proposed the toast to "Fathers."‘ Dad was a boy‘s best friend, he said. F. M. Wallingfoxd was called upon to reply on behalf of the fathers and he did â€"so in very interestâ€" ing and pleasing manner. After some humorous stories well applied, he urged the boys to carry on so that the world might be better for their life and work and to apply to everyday the lessons they learned in their associations of toâ€"day. Messrs G. H. Gauthier and G. A. Macdonald also made brief imâ€" promptu responses, chiefly featuring story and humour, bu; aiso asking the lads to take up the work attempted by the dads so that this Canada of ours may fulfil its destiny as a truly great country. Henry Ostrosky, member of the Boys‘ Parliament for this riding, proposed the toast to the C.S.E.T. in a brief but appropriate speech. The response to this was effeclively made by Arch Gillies who outlined the organization of the Trail Rangers and the Tuxis. Henry Ostrosky then presented the medals won by the boys here for sellâ€" ing bonds. The sale of bonds here raised $125.00 for the boys‘ work, and this was a satisfactory amount. He said it was planned this year to have a boys‘ camp twelve miles out from town, as one of the year‘s activities. There were three lads here winning silver medals for selling over $15.00 worth of bonds. These were: W. Orr, who sold $16.00 worth, and Cyril Reid and Henry: Ostrosky.. The bronze medals (for sellâ€" ‘ ing over $5.00 and under $15.00 worth of bonds) were won by:â€"Arthur Redâ€" stone, G. Hulbeck, W. Paice, W. Burton, Jas. Twaddle, V. Wallingford, E. Arunâ€" del, Leslie Thompson. Henry Ostrowâ€" sky thanked the boys who had worked so well to sell bonds and also those who had bought the bonds and thus helped on the work. The boys were all loudly applauded as they went up to receive their medals. M. Morrison proposed the toast to "the School" humorously saying that he had often wished the school would burn down, but nevertheless he realizâ€" ed that education was a necessity and without it no one toâ€"day had any chance in life, so all hopour to schools and teachers. In replying Mr. Roberts said that sometimes teachers were tempted too to wish that the school would burn, but for the good of all the work had to be carried on. He pointâ€" ed out that no boy hoped to excel at any game without learning the rules and how to play it. The game of life also needed knowledge of the rules and preparation for playing it, and was to supply these needs that education was devised. He urged the lads to play the game honestly and earnestly and to good effect. Ray Wallingford proposed the toast to the ladies, thanking the C.GILT. for the splendid supper provided. Brief but apprpriate response was made on behalf of the girls by Muriel Hodgins. Just as the gathering was being brought to a close with "O‘ Canada," P. T. Moisley, who had been unable for the first time in Timmins to attend the annual banquet, entered the hall bearâ€" ing with him two silver cups. He was given a very hearty greeting and there were instant calls for a speech. Mr. Moisley gave a few words to the boys, and then explained about the cups he brought. One was the Trail Rangers‘ trophy won for three consecutive years and so their property. They had kindâ€" ly handed it over for competition in the Jr. TBAA The other trophy the McKinley cup, was given under similar circumstances as the Senior trophy in the T.B.A.A. Football Club is called for this (Thursâ€" day) evening in the town hall, Fourth avenue, at 7.30. A general meeting of the Cornish ‘SIX MONTHS FOR ROBBING THE BREWERY WAREKOUSE At an early hour on Monday mornâ€" ing the Government beer warehouse corner of Spruce street and Second avenue, was entered and 43 cases of beer stolen. Entry was made through a window at the back and then forcâ€" ing an inside door. Previous to gaining this entry the offenders apparently tried to enter by means of the front door. There was a Yale lock on the front door and this was cut around in the expectation that the lock could be forced. It was a different kind of a lock that held the door, however, and as soon as this was apparent, entry was made at the rear of the building. The burglars then proceeded to pick out the best beer in the warehouse and carry it out until no less than 43 cases had been taken. Within a few hours of the time the crime was committed the police had two men, Emil Canie, Lake Shore road, and Rene Chenier, under arrest on the charge of burglarizing the warehouse, and no less than 42 cases of the beer were recovered. . The police secured clues through the fact that a motor car had to be used for the transter of the beer. Some of the beer was reâ€" covered at Canie‘s home and some at the home of brotherâ€"inâ€"law on Birch street north. The latter disavowed all knowledge of the stolen beer further than that it was apparently brought there by Canie. When the police visitâ€" ed Canie‘s home to pick him up, they noticed a couple of taxis drive up. The cecupants of these cars were picked up At police court this week both Canie and Chenier pleaded guilty to the charges placed against them. They were each sentenced to six months in jail with hard labour. The others arâ€" rested in the case were allowed to go. Canie and Chenier are going down toâ€" day to start serving their sentences. Another case that aroused more than passing interest was that of a Montâ€" real salesman who had a fellowâ€"trave!â€" ler from Toronto arrested on a charge of theft of $20.00. The trouble apparâ€" ently arose from a dispute in a card game and both sides were evidently reâ€" solved to go after each other. The parâ€" ties apparently came to an agreement among themselves and the case was withdrawn. Two women and two men were charged with selling. Their cases were remanded to next week. An insane man was committed to the asylum. Magistrate Atkinson committed A. Robitaile on a charge of perjury, the case to be heard by a judge at the next court of competent jurisdiction. This case arose from evidence given in a liquor case against Robitaille. A woman charged with breach of the peace was remanded to next week‘s court. Mrs. H. W. Warren left on Tuesday on a visit to friends and relatives in Toronto, Hamilton and other centres. o Young Men Took 43 Cases of Beer. Were Arrested and 42 Cases of the Beer Recovered by the Police.
