THE STUDEBAKER CORP. OF CANADA, Limited ow ER / 21155 One of the most impressive sights' ever seen in the Porcupine was the funeral on Sunday last of the late Comrade L. V. Lumley. In spite of| the bad weather, hundreds of people sathcred both at Schumacher and Timmins. The pallâ€"bearers were:â€" Comrades J. Nicholls, G. Byrom, J.! Harris, J. Bown, W. S. Pluff and A.' Odgers. The coffin was covered by the Union Jack, and there were a number of wreaths, and a Flanders Cross, and a wreath from the Timmins Branch Canadian Legion. The Algonquin | Rifles under Lieut. K. Stirling formed an escort. President Neame was in charge of the Schumacher part of the | ! service and Comrade H. C. Garner had | ‘ the Timmins part of the service all | ready when the cortege arrived from | Schumacher. There was a full attenâ€" | dance at the United Church, Schuâ€" macher, where Rev. Kennedy paid triâ€" bute to the splendid record of the lat«¢ | Comrade Lumley, and conducted a | very impressive service. At Timmins !the funeral procession was headed by ithe Algonquin Rifles, followed by the Timmins Citizens‘ Band, and the memâ€" bers of Timmins Branch, Canadian Leâ€" gion. The pavements from the staâ€" tion, down Third avenue, along Pine street to Kirby avenue were lined with thousands of people. Passing through Moneta, the amount of our Italian citiâ€" zens who bared their heads was quite noticeable. The procession from the station to Kirby avenue was at the slow march. At Kirby avenue owing to ' the bad condition of the road the coffin was tranferred from the motor hearse to the sleigh, only one car making the journey to the cemetery. Several hunâ€" dred people followed the cortege to the cemetery whre Rev. Kennedy read the commital service, with the Algonquin | Rifles at the "Fresent" with fixed bayâ€" 'onets. The Legion part of the service was read by President Neame after which the "Last Post" and the "Reâ€" veille" were sounded by the Legion buglers, Comrades, Pearce, Hornby, Phillips, McCann and Cherry. Poppies‘ were then dropped into the grave by’ the Legion members and the impressive service came to a close. mm mm o. t m es oo n ons mm mm mmmmmmmenner mm : anmmme emumme cw~ The splendid record of service in many lands for King and Country of the late Comrade Lumley, was not forgotten as the parade of Legion members and exâ€"soldiers was attended by most of the exâ€"soldiers in the Porâ€" cupine, who braved the miserable weather to pay their respects to one who had been a true "Soldier of the King," also of the late Queen Victoria; who had helped in many climes, in many wars to keep the Union Jack fying. The thanks of the Canadian Legion are due to the officers, NC.O.S. and Oe Canadtan Kegion in the Barupinte By the Secretaryâ€"Treasurer. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO have big crops next year." Every cloud has a silver lining. work of harvesting has been easier than usual, the crop has not been so hard Farmer‘s, Advocate:â€"Two neighbours were discussing the season‘s crops, and one bemoaned the fact that it had been The following verses are starting the rounds of the press. They had a place in The Renfrew Mercury last week:â€" The old church bell had long been cracked, Its call was but a groan, It seemed to sound a funeral knell With every broken tone. "We need a bell," the brethren said, But taxes must be paid; We have no money we can spareâ€" Just ask the Ladies‘ Aid. In conclusion everyone remember the Ladies Whist Drive on April 14th and then ring the calendar for the dance at the McIntyre hall on April 25th, also for the general meeting on April 28th. I understand Comrade Trollope from Schumacher has to go into hospital soon for an operation. I‘m sure we all wish Comrade Trollope a speedy reâ€" covery as Comrade Trollope is one of our foremost members and is a Legion "artist‘" of note, his fine voice being greatly appreciated by all. So I think we will have to introduce chutes and chute bars in the regular boxers training. I also have great pleasure in stating that Comrade Jenkins is his usual self again after his accident, and as Comâ€" rade Jenkins says if Sharky got a wallop) on the jaw same as he got with a chute bar down the mine, Sharky would have been counted out once for all. I think all will agree with Comâ€" rade Jenkins that a chute bar has some wallop especially if it hits a perâ€" son on the jaw. The ladies are holding a whist drive in the Oddfellows‘ hall on Monday, April l4th. The whist drives put on by the Ladies‘® Auxiliary of the Canaâ€" dian Legion, Timmins Branch are alâ€" ways well attended and the whist drive on April 14th will be no exception to the regular Legion whist drives which are of the best. I have great pleasure in stating that the Ladies Auxiliary sent in a cheque to assist in the forâ€" mation of the bugle band. This kind and thoughtful action on the part of the ladies is certainly appreciated so everyone ‘who can turn out Monday and make this whist drive a record one as the ladies certainly deserve our support. Let‘s see they get it. men of the Algonquin Rifies, the Timâ€" mins Citizens‘ Band, Mr. Jack Dalton for the loan of the bus, and the genâ€" tlemen who so kindly lent cars and lastly but not least the members of Timmins Branch 88 Canadian Legion, and the exâ€"soldiers of the Porcupine for attending the impressive service of the late Comrade Lumley. The wreath and poppies were made in Toronto by the crippled soldiers in the Vetcraft Shops and the Flanders Cross, was painted and inscribed by Comrade Stroud. This cross is Yie replica of the cross which marks the graves of thousands of comrades who gave their lives for King and Country. The funâ€" eral arrangements were carried out unâ€" der the direction of Mr. S. T. Walker, of Timmins. I had the pleasure of having a visit from Comrade Parsons, who brought in an application for Comrade A. F. MacDwell from Schumacher. Tom says he ‘has a number of comrades lined up at the Dome and Porcupine, and hopes to bring their applications in soon. I think after Tom gets them all rounded up from the Dome and Porcupine, we will lhave to turn him loose in Timmins as this runs Tom‘s score up to over twenty already from that part of the camp, and there cerâ€" tainly is a good field for Tom‘s efforts to secure members in Timmins. Letters have been returned from the Timmins post office as not called for for the following comrades:â€"A. E. Johnson, A. R. Thomas, R. H. H. Mitâ€" chell and W.

We cannot climb the heights alone, Our hearts are sore dismayed; We ne‘er shall get to heaven at all Without the Ladies‘ Aid." The poor man blushed te meet The grocer and the butcher as They passed him on the street; But nobly spake the brethren then, "Pastor, you shall be paid, We‘ll call upon the treasurer Of cur good Ladies‘ Aid." "Ah!" said the men, "the way to The carpet had been patched and patched, "Till quite beyond repair, And through the aisles and on the steps The boards showed hard and bare.

The chairman of the board arose, And said, "I am afraid That we will have to lay the case Before the Ladies‘® Aid.

Lying on three flat cars and a standâ€" ing freight car were four river and lake flat boats, 40 feet long and 9 feet broad, with a 4â€"foot draught, a motor cruiser launch 43 feet dong, and two small launches, along with two years‘ provisions for ten people, stowed away in the freight car. The destination of the party is Belcher Islands on the. east coast of Hudson‘s Bay. To go. there the cargo of boats and proviâ€" sions travelled to Cochrane by T. N. O., and from Cochrane on the Canaâ€" dian National Rialways to Pagwa, where the boat takes the water in the Pagwatchewan river, and commence their journey of about 200 miles tol Moose factory on James Bay and thence around the bay and about 300 miles up the coast to Belcher Islands. There are 400,000,.000 tons of ore in sight on Belcher Islands, according to E. A. LaDuke, one of the two men who say they discovered the iron ore on the island in 1914. "There is enough ore to supply Canada for a century," says Mr, LaDuke who adds that there is only one other iron mine in North America with a bigger showing of iron ore. On the cars containing the equipâ€" ment and supplies big signs were placâ€" ed, bearing the words, "On to the Bay," to help boost the Cochrane and Moose Factory extension of the T. N. O. If Mr. LaDuke‘s judgment of the value and extent of the iron deposits is jusâ€" tified Premier Drury will have to revise his ideas regarding the building of the extension to James Bay. If there is a deposit of iron ore on such an exâ€" tensive scale the new railway will beâ€" come a national necessity that will not permit of delays in construction. The prospectors at present going on the trip to Belcher Islands says they may be away for a year or more before they return. They are fully equipped for such a stay. They give many new and interesting statements® about the geoâ€" traphy of the distfict, Belcher Isâ€" land, they say, is 80 miles long and about 30 miles wide. So far as explorâ€" ed at present the island shows a deposâ€" it of iron ore fairly staggering in size. Nearby islands are also thought to have deposits of iron ore and explorations will be made to test out this theory. The two prospectors of the islands are E. E. LaDuke and Sam Sainsbury. They have figured out that the iron ore can be gotten out at a reasonable cost by using the water route. The A couple of weeks The Advance reâ€" ferred to huge coal deposits expected now to be opened up by 1932 in the James Bay and Hudson‘s Bay area. The Advance mentioned that several years ago reference had been made in these columns on different occasions to these iron ore deposits. In looking through the fyles of The Advance this week for the necessary material for the weekly column "Ten Years Ago in Timmins," the following article was enâ€" countered in the issue of April 7th, 1920 :â€" Party Travelled by Flat Boat and Motor Launch Up the Coast of James Bay and Hudson Bay to Look Over Iron Ore Deposits.
