Ten years ago an ordeyâ€"inâ€"council threw cpen the Gillies Limits on the Montreal river, to the prospector. Forâ€" merly the limits had been withdrawn from prospecting, but ten years aAgo practically the whole area, with a reâ€" servation to the south, was thrown apen. The lands so opened were addâ€" ed to the Temiskaming mining division. The lands in the Gillies limits reâ€" served from prospecting under the orâ€" derâ€"inâ€"council included the rightâ€"ofâ€" way of the Cobalt Power Co. and the rightâ€"ofâ€"way of the Cobalt Hydro ©company‘s transmission lines, both 100 feet wide. The crown also reserved ane chain deep along both banks of the Montreal river. ‘Ten yvears ago the Cercle Theriault beld z very enjoyable picnic at Sandy Palls.

John Clark was for six months or more Kraft Loaf T odhunter‘s Nibs sold for the snug little sum of $40,000. This farm was owned by D. Stewart and was noted for its grain crops and also for the stock, especially the sheep raised upon it. Mr. Burwash purchasâ€" ed it from Mr. Stewart. Mr. Burwash had farmed for over forty years in the North Land. Mrs. Burwash was the first white child to be born in Temisâ€" kaming. She was married to Mr. Burâ€" wash at the Hudson Bay trading post at the Narrows on Lake Temiskaming. be such a good thing for the settlers that he decided to remain in the North and give it another trial. With road facilities this settler was sure he could win success, and he said there were many cthers who felt the same way. Ten years ago there was apparently an "employment‘" problem in the disâ€" trict, to judge from the following paraâ€" graph in The Advance ten years ago:â€" "Just as a sample of how difficult it is to successfully handle men these days it may be noted that two men working up the river "jumped their jJobs" Sunâ€" day evening just because they did not receive the usual drink of rum at the Sunday dinner this week." The famous North Land farm at Earlton was reported ten years ago as As a proof of the value of the proâ€" posed new highway from Porquis Juncâ€" tion to North Bay in 1920 The Advance made extended reference to the inciâ€" dental value of the projected roadway in the matter of serving the settliers. Owing to the impossibility of securâ€" ing anything like the regular quota of regular players able to go to Iroquois Falls on Saturday, July 17th, 1920, the Timmins Football Club defaulted the game in the N.O.P.A. series. The Advance ten years ago said:â€" "P. McCormick is having necessary reâ€" pairs and extensions made to the building on Third avenue destroyed by fire some months ago. The new strucâ€" ture will be two storeys high and will be put into the best of shape as a busiâ€" ness block." in the matter of serving the settlers.

A large numâ€" ber of friends were at the station to see them off, and regretting their finâ€" al departure from this North Gountry, where they have been of the early pioneers." The Advance ten years ago editorialâ€" ly gave credit to the fire rangers for the good work done in the district in controlling bush fires, As The Adâ€" vance had been critical of the whole system of fireâ€"ranging, the good words were no doubt specially appreciated. The Advance, while anxious to see the fireâ€"ranging system adjusted so that better protection would be given to the rangers under the diffculties they had to face. The Advance said in part:â€" "The general public is not perhaps aware of the good work done by the fire rangers in this district, but those coming in closer touch with the bush fire situation are emphatic in comâ€" mending the fire rangers with a parâ€" ticular measure of praise for Ges. Y/csodcock, the chief fire ranger. So far as The Advance can size up the situation from the information to hand, the people of this district can thank Mr. Woodcock and his staff for the reâ€" moval of a very serious menace to life and property. The chief fire ranger was a genuine ‘ranger" this year. He covered an immense amount of terriâ€" tory. A small fire apparently could not start anywhere without his hearâ€" ing of it, and no sooner did he learn of a fire in any progress before he was on the spot fighting the blaze and preventing it growing to a more seriâ€" ous bush fire. The number of small bush fires thus caught in time and exâ€" tinguished was very large. Even Mr. Woodcock himself has lost track of the number. There were many of them, indeed, and he paid no attention to hours in the work of fighting them. On several occasions he was reported as being from 18 to 38 hours on A straight stretch employed at his good work. The result of this work may be summed up in the words, "the safety of the public was assured." While the bigger fires can not be extinguished with the equipment at hand for the fireâ€"rangers, these larger fires can. be to a certain extent, turned and slackâ€" ened. The big fire of this immediate district was the one starting north of the Grassie river and burning south into Fripp township. It was a dangerâ€" ous and widespread fire, and those who were near this bush menace give forests and pecple of the North, still felt that credit should be given for good work accomplished by the fire Cash and Carry PAROW AX 2 Pkgs, 25c Evaporated Large Tins 3 PKGS3. l) BARS mar. rxo. 19¢ sâ€"oz. sar 23¢ NO. . ow TN 11c 3 doz. 25¢ . .dGoz. 17c es ( . 2B¢ 3 TC PKG. 5(: THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TTIMMINS.

He and his brother, Matt Laine, were on a fishing trip and at an early hour in the morning were out in their canoe. In some way or other the canoe overâ€" turned and both men were thrown into the water. Matt caught the canoe and made an attempt to right it, while Henry started to swim to shore. Matt left the canoe and went to his brother‘s assistance when he saw him in diffiâ€" culty in the water, but Henry had gone down before he reached him and did not appear at the surface again. A fire ranger happening along gave every possible assistance but it was imposâ€" sible to even secure the body until all hopes of reviving life were gone. Both Henry and Matt Laine were muckers at the Hollinger and were highly reâ€" garded by all who knew them. At the time of death Henry Laine was about 30 years of age and lived near the Finâ€" lander hall, Timmins. He was survived by his widow and one child. An inâ€" quest was not considered necessary, the cause of death being so clear as acciâ€" dental.
