Mrs. Honer left on Sunday with her brother, George, for Flesherton, where the funeral will take place. It is inâ€" teresting for South Porcupine oldâ€" timers to remember that the late Mr. Bert Jamieson was the first soldier to come back from the war to South End. A bangquet was tendered to him in the Oddfellows‘ hall and he was met at the station by the town band and chaired through the streets. He was "gassed" overseas. Last week we omitted the Bridge Club evening at Mrs. Gordon Cross‘ home. Mrs. Maurice Bessette carried off the honours, with Mrs. J. Alexander getting consolation. The Hill Club did not meet last week. Miss Ivy Freeman is leaving on Satâ€" urday to visit her aunt in Montreal. On Thursday last Mrs. Stan Pearce entertained the Main Street Club, inâ€" cluding one extra table of guests. Mrs. F. B. Clarke won the club prize, Mrs. Walter Cliff the guests‘ prize, and Mrs. J. Allsxander, the consolation. Mrs. Fred Farrant was hostess for the Hill Club, Mrs. Mari:n carrying off the honours. Mrs. Kavanagh received the consolation. The "best gamie of the season" is one Younz Explorer‘s opinion of a hockey game staged between the Dome and Souw‘h End Explorers on Monday night at the rink.

They were entertained by the South End boys and girls after thr game in the Masonic hall, to refreshments and dancing. Some of the team stayed over in town, returning on Monday to Kirkland Lake. The Porcupine and Dome Boy Scouts met in the first of a twoâ€"game series for the Nitroâ€"Glycerine cup, on Tuesâ€" day evening. Goals count on the round, and the Porcupine Scouts won the match 2â€"0. The game was fast and _ rough throughout. Cattarello the scoring with a long shot from centre which Richardson failed to see. The rest of the period was rough and the Dome team made many rushcs. The second period was fast and as rough as the first. McInnis scored on a rush to make the count 2â€"0. Most of the play was in the Porâ€" cupine defence area. Both goalâ€"tendâ€" ers handled many hard shots in this sriod. The last prriod was a melee of sticks, skates and players. The game was very fast with the Dome team trying desperately to cut down the lead.

The score was 4â€"3. The first period began with the forward lines of both teams showing some good speed and combination. The heavier. Porcupine boys forced most of the play up into the Kirkland Lake area. Thel first goal came on a smart play by Catâ€". tarello and Michaelson, the latter passâ€" ! ed the puck to Cattarello who drew out. Ssampson and made no mistake with his shot. Sampson who appeared to. have a weak defence in front of him played ‘spectacular hockey. _ McLean got the second counter. Near the end of the period McInnis was robbed of a. goal when Sampson made a wonderful save. The second period opened with Kirkland Lake trying hard to reduce the Maple Leafs‘ lead. They were finâ€" ally rewarded when Jones beat McCafâ€" fery on a shot from the blue line. The period was very rough and Referee Jemmett handed out 6 penalties. The Maple Leafs forward line broke away and beat the whole Kirkland Lake team, Cattarello passing to Michaelson who: beat Sampson with a kpee high shot. The rrriod ended 3â€"1 for the Maple Leafs.

R. ships be The Ontario Department of Northâ€" ern Development will be asked to assist farmers in the north to purchase lime to correct acid soil which prevails in the areas along the north shore in the districts of Sudbury, Algoma and Thunder Bay. There are no limestone deposits in this region, and to import lime from the south would cost about $9 a ton, more than the average farmer can afford. It was. decided at the reâ€" gional conference of agricultural repreâ€" sentatives held at North Bay last week that the government should be asked to pay about $4 to a ton. HELP FARMERS COUNTERACT THE ACIDITY OF THE SOIL Representatives from the districts of Algoma, Cochrane, Manitoulin, Muskoâ€" ka, Parry Sound, Temiskaming, Nipisâ€" sing and Sudbury were present at the conference, which was presided over by R. S. Duncan, director of Agricultural Representative Branch. The quesiion of building up soils in certain areas which have been depletâ€" ed rceived much consideration. G. N. Rhunke, of the Department of Chemisâ€" try, â€" Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph, gave as his opipipn that liming is essential. This thsory is the resuit of study of the situation last summer by Mr. Rhunke. The representatives agreed that in ordsr to gain more inâ€" formation on the subject they would coâ€"cperate with the Department of Chemistry at Guelph in carrying on ‘experiments with fertilizer and lime in each district. It was also decided to carry on soil classification work during the summer. Matters connected ‘with crops, live stock and marketing were also discussâ€" ed. ° Most ‘districts are weak in dairyâ€" ing, and it was agreed the farmers needed help in building up dairy herds. The reprvesentatives of each district cutlined some problem, and received advice for the remedying of existing conditions in this part of the province. Next July agricultural representatives from all over the province will make tour of the north by motor. Leaving North Bay théy will travel north through the T. N. O. district to Cochrane, then to Kapuskasing and Hearst, returning the same way. Mrs. Lawlor, formerly one of the esteemed pioneer residents of Timmins, but recently living at Sudbury, is visitâ€" ing in town for a few days. Mrs. Lawâ€" lor is in town to visit friends and reâ€" new acquaintanceships, and also to see about her several properties in town. From an advertisement in The Adâ€" vance in regard to somle of these proâ€" porties Mrs. Lawlor has had about thirty replies. Anyone wishing to see Mrs. Lawlor in regard to the proprrties advertised may call at the house at the rear of No. 3 Elm street. Empress of Japan and left lie the Princess Joan and the Princess Elizabeth, destined for the British Columbia Coastal service. They will all be in service from British Columbia ports this season. Up to Dominion to Help Transâ€"Canada Highway In the last issue of The Kapuskasing Northern Tribune a letter is published from Hon. Wm. Finlayson, Minister of Lands and Forests, in regard to the proposed Transâ€"Canada Highway. To this letter the editor of The Northern Tribune appends the note:â€""The minâ€" ister‘s letter puts the case succinctly; the project is strictly up to the Ottawa Governm‘ent. The Tribune says:â€" Replying to the resolution of the Kaâ€" puskasing Town Council endorsing the proposal of the Cochrane Board of Trade that the highway west of Hearst should be constructed to Orient Bay, Hon. Wm. Finlayson, Minister of Lands and Forests, writes as follows under date of March 20th:â€" I have your letter of the 17th instant enclosing a resolution passed by the Town Council recommending the conâ€" struction of a highway from Hearst to Orient Bay, as part of the transâ€"Canâ€" ada highway. The Ontario government are willing to coâ€"operate in the construction of the transâ€"Canada highway and are anxious toâ€"seeâ€"that it should be completed at as early a date as possible. This work is not a local or risovinâ€" cial work but a national work in which the whole of Canada is interested. There woul dbe very little local travel from the eastern provinces to the prairie provinces and the West. If the Dominion goviernment are willing to coâ€"operate in this work and assist the province in undertaking it the work could be proceeded with at once but to date the Dominion governâ€" ment have declined to assume any reâ€" sponsibility in connection with this matter. In the province of Ontario the road | would be cut through hundreds of mlles of territory where there is pra,ctxcally no settlement and there would be no local trade and through a country where the construction would be exâ€" remely expensive. In the United States the ‘federal government make contributions to such work but until something of the kind is done in Canada, I do not think there is much prosprct of the work being proceeded with. BARRYMORE STARRING IN TRIPLE ROLE IN FIRST TALKIE John Barrymore, eminent star of stage and screen, has an unusual opâ€" portunity to display his genius for characterization in "General Crack," Warner Brothers Vitaphone special at present showing at the Goldfields theaâ€" tre. This is John Barrymore‘s first talking picture. In addition to portraying the dashâ€" ing title role of the mad Prince Chrisâ€" tian, soldier and lover, in this vivid tale of romance and adventure in eighâ€" teenth century Europe, Mr. Barrymore contributes two other superb imperâ€" sonations to the picture. In the prologue to the actual story, In the prologue to the actual story, he acts the part of his father, a dodâ€" dering old soldier. Later in the film, h‘â€" enacts the role of his father‘s ghost who appears as a guiding influence in an imporfant turning point in the story Said to be his most fascinating charâ€" acterization, Barrymore in the title role as General Crack, is seen as a stormâ€" ing individual in eternal conflict with his gypsy and his aristocratic traitsâ€"a man who became the dominant miliâ€" tary figure of greatest lover Directed by Alan Crosland, the supâ€" porting cast of "General Crack" inâ€" cludes Lowell Sherman, Marian Nixon, Armida, Hobart Bosworth, Jacqueline Logan, Philippe de Lacy, Otto Matieâ€" son, and many others Walter Anâ€" thony adapted thie piece from George Preedy‘s novel of the same name and J.

FINLAYSON TIMMINS RETAINS GUP UNTIL THE NEXT SEASON Local Curlers Won From Haileybury Challengers on Saturday. Curling Rink Closed for Season This Week. Haileybury sent up two rinks last weck in the hopés of reâ€"capturing the Enclehart curling trophy from Timâ€" mins but the efforts were in vain, Timâ€" mins making an easy win in the one match but the being a close one. The following are the players and scores:â€" Hailsyburyâ€" â€"Timmins Y. Campbell W. King S. Forneri D. Ostrosser R. Howey 5. Caldbick J. Isserwood, skipâ€"9 Geo. Drew, skipâ€"16 Sheriff Caldbick E. H. Hill L. Fleming Geo. Lake Dr. Crawford W. Rinn J. Abrams, skip I. A. Solomon, skip + ~15 â€"16 $ 24 This will be the last game of the seaâ€" son, the curling rink closing down this week until next winter. Thus Timâ€" mins retains until next season the troâ€" phies won in competition this year. After the play on Saturday last lunch was served to the visitors and a very pleasant time was spent in storyâ€"tellâ€" ing, etc. The season just closed is one of the most successful curling seasons enjoyâ€" ed so far in Timmins. The Timmins Curling Club has certainly had a seaâ€" son that will be remembered with inâ€" terest and pleasure. Over twenty new members were enrolled during the seaâ€" son, and everybody feels that it was a most successful curling season from every standpoint. Much of the sucâ€" cess and pleasure of the season was due to the great interest and effort given by the president, I. A. Solomon and the directors, who never allowed their acâ€" tive attention to flag and who missed no possible opportunity to advance the interests of curling and the curlers. The match committee is also entitled to a large measure of praise for their good work in keeping something doing all the time and thus assuring continuâ€" ed and sustained interest. Curlers also will wish to say a word or two for the good work of Silas Cook who was the efficient caretaker of the rink during the season. The ice is generally admitted to have been the best ice ever had here. There was only one lull from the orening to the close of the season. The enthusiasts lost Tess than two days‘ curling in December and so all are well inclined to give due credit to the president, directors, match committee, caretaker and all others concerned for the most successful curlâ€" ing season yet enjoyed. It might be well for all curlers to take their coats, sweaters, etc., from the rink now so as to avoid any chance of these articles being lost or damaged. There is always the possibility of someâ€" one illegally entering the rink after its formal closing and when it is known that there is no caretaeker there. It is expected this year to get someone to stay at the rink through the balance of the year so that everything may be kept in the best shape all the time, but until this is arranged it might be as well to be on the safe side and have all sweaters, coats, etc., removed for the present. WELLâ€"KNOWN HAILEYBURY COUPLE OBSERVE EVENT The Haileyburian last week says:â€" "On Saturday last, March 22nd, Mtr. and Mrs. Donald Ferguson, Lake Shore Road, old residents of Haileybury, celeâ€" brated the fiftieth anniversary of their wedding. They received many valuable gifts of gold and other gifts as well as a great profusion of flowers from their large circles of friends, besides the imâ€" mediate members of their family. Mrs. Ferguson has not been well this winter, but on the anniversary she was able to walk downstairs and receive quite a number of friends. She presided at the table and cut the anniversary cake. Mr. and Mrs. Ferguson and their famiâ€" ly have been residents of Haileybury for over twenty years. They came here from the Ottawa Valley, where their former home was and where they were married. They have a family of four sons and two daughters living, all of whom are well known here to a large circle of friends. The daughters are Mrs. White, of Montreal, who came home for the anniversary and returnâ€" ed on Monday, and Mrs. Jackson. The sons are W. A. H., A. P. J., Gordon and Neil. The seventh member of the family, Roy died some years ago. The whole community will join with their family and friends in extending conâ€" gratulations and good wishes to Mr. and Mrs. Ferguson on having reached their golden anniversary and will wish them many more years ofâ€"happy and contented life in Halieybury." Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Sanderson, of Kirkland Lakt, celebrated their golden wedding anniversary last week. Mrs. Banderson is 70 years of age and her husband a few months younger. Both Mr. Sanderson and his son, Frank, served in the war, the latter being killed at Hill 70.
