FINNISH MISSION ASKING ; FOR £000 WoRK H?%/ Vol. XV. Building Needed for Church and She Purposes. Much Being Accomâ€" plished in Counteracting Disâ€" . lovalty and Communism. Among the Finnish people in Canada there is a particularly active organizaâ€" tion designed to spread the doctrines of communism and atheism. Ths organâ€" ization works not only among men women, but also centres effort on the children. â€" "Sunday Schools," study groups, athletic and social clubs are carried on with the direct purpose of ESE a d ced reaching and holding the children and vyoung peorle and instilling and fosterâ€" ing in them the "Red" doctrines whichi are so completely opposed to Canadian Government ideas and to all religion. This objectionable form of organization has more power and influence in Timâ€" mins and the Porcupine Camp than most people realize or care to admit. Work along this evil line has been carrtied along here for some years past, as The Advance has repeatedly pointed out. These aliens, who have enjoyved the advantages of this country, often to the direct handicap of people who are loyal by birth and nature to Canamaa and its institutions, have been carryâ€" ing on steady effort for the overthrow of he form of government and the ideas in religion that are vital to the neomle of this Dominion. The peocple people of this Dominion. The people in general have ignored the movement anad allowed it to grow to some stremgth. Fortunately, however, there are loyal Finnish people who have worked to counteract the evil plans of the ungrateful. Chief among the agencies that have worked for Canada and for the true interests of the Finâ€" nish people in Timmins has been the United Church Finnish Mission here. Such a body deserves the assistance of all loyal Canadians. At present a cali is well organized and its baneful inâ€" fluence should not be discounted. "Its avowed purpose," he says, "is to estabâ€" lish a class tyranny. This would mean the stifliing of all individual liberty such as we have seen in Russia." Ior such assistance is being sent out. Rev. A. Lappala minister of the Finâ€" nish Mission at Timmins, in letter being sent out this week, details the plans and growth of the communist organization among the Finnish people. He points out that in Timmins and the Porcupime Camp the "Red" movement "For the past two years" continues Rev. Mr. Lappale, "the Finnish Mission in Timmins has tried, and has to a certain extent effectively counteracted the "Red" influences. Loyal Â¥Finns have been constantly helped and enâ€" couraged. The reign of red terror among them has been largely overâ€" come and while its history from the beâ€" cinaming has been stormy, it is still conâ€" tinuing to influence a large number of Finns for truth and righteousness. To make its work of more account, it must have outside aid, and it comes to you for the first time appi>aling for funds. A building is needed for worâ€" ship, reading and social activities. The sum has been started and it is hoped you will see your way clear to continue it on its way. The Mission representaâ€" tive will call on you in the rear future This appeal should receive hearty response from all loyal people. It is a patriotic work of much influence to asâ€" sist a cause like the Timmins Finnish Mission. It means the encouragement of the many Finnish people who are loyal to Canada. It means assistance to the Finnish prople who would be loyal to Canada if they were not misled by the "Reds" who have at present gained some prestige because there has not been enough done to counteract their evil work. Aiding the Finnish Mission means the proper handicapâ€" ping of the ungrateful agitators who are meanly striving to foist upon Canâ€" pda the conditions that torment the country from which they had to fiee. The loyal people of Timmins will aid the loyal Finns in their good work. DOoME wWINS FIRST MATCH IN THE BOXER CUP GAMES In the Boxer Cup games the Dome Football Club team won the first vicâ€" tory by coming out at the head of a 2â€"1 score on Saturday last at the Dome grounds when the Comish Oneâ€" andâ€"All team opposed them. Saturâ€" day‘s game at the Dome was a very good one, both teams puttings up the classy brand of football that has so pleased the football enthusiasts in this camp this season as game after game of good soccer has been exhibitâ€" ed. Both teams have been compliâ€" mented on the style of football played on Saturday. While the Dome won on merit it is fair to say that the Cornish played a nice game and were simply unlucky at times. The two teams play again on Saturday of next week July 198th, and it will undoubtedly be a game specially worth seeing. The annual rÂ¥icnic of the Lancashire Social Club will be held on Sunday, July 13th, at Bayside Bgach. Buses will leave the Hollinger hal at 10 a.m., and will stop at Dalton‘s bus stand for those who cannot get down to the hall. A hot midâ€"day meal will be provided at the refreshment rooms at the ricâ€" nic grounds. PAID CIRCULATION LAST WEEK 2958 2 Sections â€" 16 Pages we beg you to give him a good Although it was feared that the citâ€" cus train might not be able"to get here on Friday last on account of the washâ€" out on the T. N. O. railway near Haileybury, the cirecus was able to reach here all right though several hours behind schedule time. The latter fact, however, did not make so much difâ€" ference as it might have done, as the Al. G. Barnes cirecus does not hold any street parades, thus following the pracâ€" tice of the larger shows now on the road. There were two shows given here on Friday, one at 4.30 p.m. and the other at 8 pm. Both were crowded, and report has it that the circus took in $15,000,00. here before leaving very early Saturday morning for Cochrane to show there. The settingâ€"up of the circus here and the dismantling for removal to Cochrane were almost. as interesting as the circus itself. There were 600 on the staff with the circus. BARNES CIRGUS BIGGEST AND BFST T0 VIS!T NORTRH Big Crowds Enjoy Circus Showing Here on Friday Last. Said to Have Taken in $15.000 Here. Good Type of Circus With Atâ€" tractive Programme. staff seiemed to be of the better type. The large number of fine horses and lady drivers proved a particular attracâ€" tion. The music furnished was another special. Some of the acts of skill and strength were particularly good. All through it may be classed as a clean, clever and complete circus. The children of all ages up to 77 enjoyed this thoroughly. The Al G. Barnes cireus proved by far the largest and best to ever visit the North Land. The number and type of the trained wild animals, the bands, the spectacular parades, the scores of acrobats, animal trainers, clowns and everything else exceeded in number and in quality the combined extent of any other two circuses showâ€" ing here. Everything about the circus was orderly and businessâ€"like and the No circus visiting the North ever gave as extended a programme. The usual afterâ€"show even was longer and better than most though the extra price charged was smaller. Probably the only disappointing feature of this special show was the boxing bout. There was the usual call for some local man to accept the challenge of the cirâ€" cus boxer and wrestler and the usual response by a man giving his residence as Timmins but suspected to be on the cirecus staff. At the same time there was also a takingâ€"up of the challenge by a young man v,vell known in Timâ€" mins and the North, Roy Hamilton. The crowd was asked which they wantâ€" ed, and the demand of course, was for Roy Hamilton, though the circus chalâ€" lenger was twice Roy‘s weight or vyears. When the bout was put on the circus representative in the ring turnâ€" ed out to be a young fellow about the weight of Roy but older. He did not have a chance with the clever North Land boxer and was knocked out of the ring more than once. He seemed to be surprised at the type of boxer he had encountered and put up no show at all. The decision was given Roy Hamilton. GOODYXEAR CUP GAME HERE ON sATURDAY THIS WEEK There is big football feature here on the athletic grounds, Timmins, Satâ€" urday, July I%h, the kickâ€"off being at 6.15 pm. sharp. The feature is the Goodyear Cup match, the contending teams being the MciIntyre, of Schuâ€" macher and the Lake Shore Mines team, of Kirkland Lake. Both these teams are good ones â€"and have been playing nice football this season, 5o pleasing contest may safely be expectâ€" ed. The Goodyear trophy is held in high esteem in football circles and so it may be taken for granted that both teams will put in their best work, which will mean a finf brand of good football. The return match will be played on Saturday of next week at Kirkland Mr. and Mrs. 8. A. Caldbick left this morning on a motor trip to the south. ie | EC FOURtiE® DROWNED PITCHES NOâ€"KIT °0 iN MATTACAME ON â€" GCAME IN SENIOR LEAGUE ' The late Hector Fournier boarded at r26 Sixth avenue and was accompanied ,on his trip to the river Tuesday mornâ€" ing by L. Gervais, aged 12 years, one |of the children in the house. The lad lhad the hard experience of seeing his | friend swallowed up by the waters and being powerless to help or to get anyâ€" 'one else to help before it was too late. The late Hector Fournier was employed | at the McIntyre Mine, coming to the camp about a year ago. He has a broâ€" ther Alphonse, living at 65 First avenue, but his home was in Montreal where he lived previous to coming here. Young Man Living on Sixth Avenue Meets Death in River,. Body Re covered From the Water Inside of Four Hours. Another sad drowning accident took place at the Mattagami river near the bridge at Timmins on Tuesday at about 11 a.m., Hector Fournier, aged 30 years, and residing at 26 Sixth avenue, meetâ€" ing death by drowning. He had bsen in swimming and apparently took a cramp or was caught by the undercurâ€" rent which is very strong this year, and was dragged under. He was noticed to be in difficulties and two men in the river at the time are said to have tried to get a plank or log to him to assist him to shore but were unable to.do so and did not feel themselves good enough swimmers to be able to assist him otherwise. They left the river to secure other help but by the time that help arrived the unfortunate man was gone from sight. The drowning took place about 200 feet northeast of the centre of the bridge. At this point the current is very swift and the waters on account of its undercurrents may well be classâ€" ed as dangerous. The late Mr. Fourâ€", nier was considered a good swimmer, and his death under the circumstances seems to uphold the suggestion of sevâ€" tral citizens that it would be a good idea to have a trained swimmer at the river to assist in preventing fatalities @uring the swimming season. It was feared at first that it might be some time before the body could be reâ€" covered, the chances being that the body would be carried far down the river by the strong current. Instead, the body was recovered at 3 p.m., near the sawmill, not far from the scene of the accident, the current carrying it to one side and into shallow water where it was seen by some of the searchers. The late Hector Fournier, was unâ€" married, and his relatives with the exâ€" ception of the brother at Schumacher, reside in Montreal. It is thought that the remains will be taken to Montreal for interment. The deepest sympathy of all will be extended to the family and friends in their loss by this sad death. ‘The late Hector Fournier had made many friends during his resiâ€" dence in the camp and his untimely death will be very much regretted.

The coroner‘s jury attached the blame for the double tragedy to Meloche. The evidence at the inquest followed much the line of information that was given in The Advance last week in reâ€" ference to the tragedy. Since the inâ€" quest, however, there has been suggesâ€" tion that Eloi Meloche may not have shot himself as generally accepted, this idea being founded on the theory that there were no powder marks on him and this suggesting that the gun was not held close to him. There may Posi ibility That Mcloche may not Have Shot Himself as First Believed. Thorough Investigation Being Made by Police. be nothing to this idea but the police are making thorough investigation and will leave nothing undone to assure the compelte facts being developed in this case. All those concerned in the traâ€" gedy were residents of Timmins or forâ€" mer residents here.

For ten days the bush around Kaâ€" ‘uskasing has been diligently searched for sight or trace of Victor Gareau, a lad of six years, son of a settler in the district. The little lad with his eightâ€" yearâ€"old sister and fourâ€"yearâ€"old broâ€" ther became lost in the forest on Monâ€" day, June 30th. The matter did not come to the general knowledge of the people of Kapuskasing for a couple of days. In the meantime the eightâ€"yearâ€" old girl and the fourâ€"yearâ€"old boy had safely reached home. The little girl said that after becoming lost Victor had decided to somehow or another reach their father and had separated from the others for this purpose. They had struggled on and after being in the bush Monday night, all day Tuesâ€" day and Tuesday night they reached home on Wednesday. The two childâ€" ren are now in their home which is a settler‘s humble home not too well supâ€" plied with the comforts of life,. Scores of women from the Kapuskasing area have visited the home and all sorts of comforts have been showered upon the rescued children. Despite the hardâ€" ships endured the little girl was little affected by the terrible experience through which she passed. Even the fiies, which are very bad in the bush, had ncot injured her to any serious exâ€" tent. The little fourâ€"yearâ€"old lad was very badly bitten by the flies, however, and is in bed from the flyâ€"bites, exâ€" posure and hunger caused. He is in not in danger, however, now. To find the sixâ€"yearâ€"old lad, Victor Gareau, every possible effort has been made. Literally hundreds from Kaâ€" puskasing have joined in the search and ithe search has not slackened day or night. Although the work of combâ€" ing the bush is still in progress hope is practically abandoned now of finding the lad alive. The Forestry Departâ€" ment, the Northern Development Dept. staff, the staff of the~ Expy>rimental Farm at Kapuskasing, scores of emâ€" ployees of the Spruce Falls Power and Paper Co., and other scores‘of the citiâ€" zens of Kapuskasing as well as settlers in the district have been searching day and night for a straight week. The whole bush has been gone over thorâ€" oughly. The use of airplanes has also been tried. But no trace of the little fellow has been found. The fear is that the little fellow has hidden‘from the searchers, and there are so many places he could hide with little hope of his discovery. The boy was very shy and timid of strangers and would be likely to take just the sort of attitude suggested, even if the searchers had gotten near him. The two rescued children showed the same shyness and timidity in regard to strangers. The father of the missing boy has steadâ€" fastly remained in the bush since Monâ€" day night and has scarcely slept. He shuns every attention but the mere offer of food and drink occasionally, accepting these only to strengthen him for further search for his lost boy. Despicable Crime at ) the Timmins Cemetery A crime so contemptible that it is scarcely believable that such a thing could occur in a supposedly civilized country took place some days or nights ago at the Timmins cemetery. Some sort of despicable sneak thief visited one of the graves with a spade and deâ€" liberately dug up the top of the grave taking all the flowers planted there in affectionate remembrance of a beloved wife. The sneak thief made a double wound by his mean crime, stealing the flowers and adding to the sorrow thus given by the thought of the desecration of the grave by the mere presence there of one so despicable as the man who would rob the dead of the honour that was given by affectionate hands that planted the flowers there in lovâ€" ing remembrance. There do not seem to be words harsh enough to condeimn this typr of thief. For year past efforts have been patiently made to have betâ€" ter care given generally to the cemeâ€" tery so that due respect and rememâ€" brance might be shown to the loved ones resting there. In the past year or two there has been increasing effort shown in the beautification of the cerpetery. There are now many beauâ€" tifully kept plots there now and it does appear too bad that all this effort should be spoiled and relatives should be wounded through the heartless work of the ghoulish thieves who‘! would rob the dead of the flowers lovingly plantâ€" ed and cared for in their memory. There were reports current toâ€"day that a boy had been drowned at the river, but the police and other authoriâ€" ties had no information to this effect and at the time of going to press it seems to be a case of a report without foundation and â€"probably arising through confusion of the facts of the drowning of Hector Fournier on Tuesâ€" day, this gentleman having been acâ€" companied to the river by a boy who, however, was not in the water and not endangered. Kiwanis Carnival Proving a Most Interesting Event The 1930 Kiwanis Carnival is truly living up to advance advertising as being "Bigger ‘n Better." The comâ€" mittee have gone to considerable exâ€" pense and trouble to provide entertainâ€" ment features of. real merit and the way the crowds have been enjoying themselves proves that the committee has succeeded. On account of the weather the attendance has not beoen as large as it would otherwise have been, but hundreds have found the event very pleasing indeed and have been going back night after night. There are still three more nightsâ€"toâ€"night, tomorrow night and Saturday night,.â€" and none should miss ons.or more visits to this palace of entertainment. The Timmins Citizens‘ Band played before the rink on Wednesday night to help attract the crowds and to furnish the general public with some good music.

The dance was one of the most pleasing held here for some time and the attendance being good and the tickets selling well it was a financial success as well as a very pleasant evening. Tommy Stepiens and his able orchestra provided the best of music and all the other features of the evening were equally aitractive. J. D.
