They are Miss Winton and Miss Meiklsjchn. They were sent here under Proâ€" vincial Health Depariment plan outâ€" lined, and will work in coâ€"operation with the local Board of Health, the local acctors and murses, and tn2 generally. This week they are mseting public bodies and sccieties such as the Ccuncil, Board of Health, LO.DE.; etc., so that the pian and purpose of the work may be generally understocd,and the coâ€"operation of all secured. It is the intention to have Miss Winton and Miss Mceiklejohn visit the homes of the town. They will give spscial attenâ€" tion to mothers and to those expeciing to become mothers, and to children unâ€" der school age. Their advice and assisâ€" 1 tance will be available without charge to all, and their services should prove of the greatest valuse. In addition, it is the intention to hold clinics for the benefit of mothers and small children. Their work will not in any way suLRtrâ€" sede the work of the local dectors and nurses but will rather support the good efforts of the latter professions. The local Board of Health also plans to seâ€" cure suitable office for the nurses where they may be called upon at any time. The sending of nurses here is part of ths plan of, the Provincial Health Department. <At present.all exâ€" ponses are being borne by the Provinâ€" cial Department. After a fair trial of the plan, however, if the town wishss to continue the work, it may take it over as a municipal matter." It may be added here that the plan has worked with remarkable success during the past ten years and only the shortâ€" sighted would think that it was not worth many times its cost. Probably no cne will realize the saving of life and the reduction in illness and sufferâ€" ing through the patient, skilled and unselfish work of the town nurses in the past ten years. Ten years ago there was a police weéeks previcusly with immoral living was responsible for the bringing of the case against the man and wife with whom she had lived. The crowd at the police court for the event, however, hnad 2 double disappointment. In the first place the court was "cleared" of all but those actually concerned in the case, the magistrate taking the stand that it was not in the public interests to make a police court a place for curiâ€" csityâ€"sseker or the scandalâ€"monger. The second disappointment was when the woman swore she never accused the nolice and that the whole charge azainst the authoritiee was no more than hearsay. The man and wife were each given six months for conducting a disorderly house, and on another charge of keeping liquor for sale, they were also each given six months, the sentences to run concurrently. Undear the heading, "Sol Makes Brilâ€" liant Capture at the Station," The Adâ€" vance ten years ago had the following article:â€""After the early morning train rad left here on Monday Mr. Sol. Shankman went from the ticket office to his room at the back of the station. While in his bedroom he imagined that he heard somsone moving around in the ticket office, and knowing that it was not likely to be anyone with a legal right to be there at that early hour, Sol. slipped out very quitely and reâ€"entered the ticket office, without making any noise, and there surprised a young man in the act of helprIng himâ€" self to a ticket. Sol. very coolly held him up while he telephoned Chief Wilâ€" on who soon was on the scene and arrested the young fellow on a charge of theft. The young fellow gave his name as Maurice Tessier and said he lived at 99 Ottawa street, Montreal. He tcld Chief Wilson that he was married, with some small children and he wantâ€" ed to get a ticket to Montreal, so he could get back home. "I didn‘t try to touch any money," he said, "I just wanted a ticket so I could get home." The man is just a young fellow, perhaps 21 or 22 years of age, and he felt his capture very keenly. He is being held hnere for trial before Magistrate Atkinâ€" con toâ€"morrow. In the meantime Sol. is beinz complimented on his bold capâ€" ture, and the police have their eye on im in case they need assistance at any time." | YUAL VCL_ Va APEV AiC liWG VY UUC Under the heading, "Cornish Miners | able on or before Nov. 1st, on which 10 Being Brought to Mines Here," The cent. discount will be allowed." vance referred to the shortage of laâ€" |\ "Mrs. A.

Ten years ago "On to the Bay," meaning on to James Bay, was aA byâ€" word in the North, and in the issue of The Advance of Oct. 27th, 1920, there was the following under the heading, "Quebec and British Men‘ May Go "On to the Bay."â€"According to the last 13â€" sus of the Northland Past there is conâ€" ciderable probability that a company of pulp and parter financiers may build a railway to Hudson Bay from the Queâ€" | bec side. Their object, of course, in building the rgilway as a private enâ€" terprise would be to get into pulpwood preserves in the far north. The Post sugge:ts that in addition to qQuebec Province capital a number of British financiers from overseas are in the synâ€" | dicate, the namses of Lord Burnha iand Lo:d Desbcrough, who were here recently with Imperial Press Con orâ€"| lence party, being mentioned. Their | plans are supposed to include the takâ€" | ing over from the Quebec Government | | of the charter for a railway from Seven i !Islands to Hudson Bay.

An advertisement in The Advance ten years ago gave notice of the sale of lots in Timmins Heights subâ€"division, adâ€" joining Timmins on the south and Monâ€" eta on the west.

Armistice Day Should be Observed November 11 For some years past there has been cbjection to the idea of observing Arâ€" mistice Day and Thanksgiving Day on the same date. A couple of years ago The Advance pointed out the inconâ€" gruity of observing the two distinct and differing events on the one day. The Timmins branch of the Legion has dealt with the matter by having speâ€" clal ceremonies on both the day set part by the Government as Thanksâ€" giving Day and Armistice Day, and the actual day on which Armistice Day may fall. The local Legion, like other branches throughout Canada, however, seems to be well agreed that Armistice Day should be observed on its own date and for its own sake. Recently the Barrie branch of the Canadian Legion | announced that it will observe the anâ€" niversary on the proper date believing that Armistice Day should have a greater significance than an ordinary statutory holiday. Discussing the announcement on the joint celebration of Thanksgiving and LArmistice Day, the Cowichan Leader of | Duncan, B.C., says:â€" "Although they originally meant the same thing there has come to be a world of difference between a holiday and a holy day. Now Thanksgiving is ia hcoliday. Armistice Day is a holy day. It is unfortunate that there should ever have been a thought to make the two cbhservances coincide. One daoes not deliberately set out to make one‘s wedding day coincide with the anniâ€" verâ€"ary of the death of some loved one. If ever we get calendar reform the matter may be but meantime there will be strong support by all thinking people to the Canadian Legion in their stand for the propl:r observâ€" ance of Armistice Day on Armistice Day, not the day before or after to suit hclidays, but on November 11.

Stevens‘ Amusement Parlours An AllWeather Recreation Pinec Street South, Timmins This year, Monday, November 10, is to be Thanksgiving Day and it is planâ€" ned by some to celebrate Armistice Day on that day. Others are arranging to have Armistice services on Sunday, November 9. The incidence of November 11 in the week may creat difficulty and inconâ€" venience, but surely, if Armistice Day means anything it should be worthy of any sacrifice. * * It would be an exâ€" cellent thing if the Government would suggest that everyone should devote two hours on Armistice morning to atâ€" tending the community observance of the day. There would still be some who could not attend but in our view, it is a Zar better thing for individuals cr little groups to halt their work, even for two minutes, at the actual moment of Armistice than for Armistice to be swallowed up in a day which, for the great majority, would be one ¢f holiday and pleasure."
