The course consists of six lectures given by a qualified doctor or instructor folâ€" lowed by an examination and if sucâ€" cessful you are given a certificate in FIRST AID TO THE INJURED. The first lecture will be given in the skating rink on Sunday, Nov. 9th, by Mr. Geo. Debney, our field secretary. It costs you nothing to come to these lectures and practise bandaging. Some day you may have to act and act quickâ€" ly at an accident; just imagine how you will feel if you are unable to render first aid to your fellow man should he need it. Some time ago a child was playing in the garden and fell down cutting his wrist very badly. Two first aiders who were on the spot, arrested the bleeding, bandaged the wound and had the boy sent to the doctor‘s. It was quick work and the work was done well. The question is:â€"if you saw a person fall and severely hurt him or herself would you be able to tell the nature of the injuries, what they are and how to treat them, and particularly the ones to treat ‘first? If not, become a first aider; help up toâ€"day; you may need help toâ€" morrow.

NEW PROCESS REPORTED IN PULP FROM YELLOW BIRCH An improved process of making pulp from yellow birch wood has been workâ€" ed out at the New York State College of Forestry at Syracuse University, the results of which, if commercialized, may have an important effect on the manuâ€" factur2a of newsprint. Probably any process that will make available more hardwood for pulp and paper manufacture will be gladly acâ€" cepted by the industry. Especially would this be true in the manufacture of material upon which newspapers are printed. Most of the newsprint at preâ€" sent is made from spruce. There is scarcity of spruce but there is plenty of yellow birch, a large supply of which is to be found in the Adjrondack secâ€" tion of New York where many pulp and paper plants are located. The investigation carried on at the forestry college covered the conversion of yellow birch into paper pulp by using liquid chlorine as a agent. Tne investigators found that the birch wo a‘e| when pulped by this process gave a proâ€" duct four times as strong as when pulpâ€" ed by the usual soda process commonly employed in the conversion of hardâ€"~ woods. In addition to the factor of exâ€" traordinary strength it was found that the fibres were more flexible and bleachâ€" ed with much less difficulty than the ordinary soda wood pulp from the same wood. It is felt that the process has good commercial possibilities, although certain economic phases remain to be worked out.â€"Canadian Lumberman.

O. main line, Miss Steâ€" phany Menurisky, daughter of Mr. Nicholas Menurisky, of Dane, and Mrs. Nicholas Menurisky, of Dane, and the late Mrs. Menurisky, took place at Englehart on a recent Saturday, to Mr. Aurel Malin, of Redwater, near North Bay. After the ceremony the wedding party proceeded to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Mudrick where supper was served to many guests and dancing was enjoyed for several hours. Mt. Nick Menurisky, who has been workâ€" ing recently at Monteith was a visitor to Dane for the occasion and to attend the wedding of his only daughter at Englehart. Mr. and Mrs. Malin have taken up) residence at Redwater. TORONTO LUMBERMAN SAYS CUT DBDEAD TREES IN PARK J. L. MacFarlane, viceâ€"president of the Canadian General Lumber Co., Toâ€" ronto, recently wrote to the press of Toronto suggesting that a large numâ€" ber of families of unemployed men might be helped through the cutting of dead trees in High Park, Toronto. Mr. MacFarlane declares that both standâ€" ing and fallen trees have been allowed to rot. The . removal of these dead membersof the bush would vastly imâ€" prove the appearance of the park and furnish fuel for many poor homes durâ€" ing thz coming winter. The wood consists of red and white pine, along with some cak, birch and hemlock. London (England) Dailey Expressâ€" What is probably the heaviest stag killâ€" ed in Scotland for many years has, I hear, just been laid low by Lord Titchâ€" field. It weighed twentyâ€"five stones Eclean had a good head of thirteen | points, and was a splendid specimen of ‘the wild red deer. The scene of this ‘achievement was the Caithness Forest, ‘belonging to Lord Titchfield‘s father, ‘the Duke of Portland. Lord Titchfield, whose love of shooting is probably conâ€" genital, has inherited too much of his father‘s seriousâ€"mindedness. Charles E. Chambers, Parks Comâ€" missioner, said that dozens of cords of wood, which might be used in the stoves of poor Toronto families, were lying in the park and could not be given away. The cause is that the wood is cut in five foot lengths and someone must stand the expense of delivery. Mr. Chambers added that they had been tryâ€" ing to ‘get the wood into deserving hands, and the department had even got in touch with charity institutions without any satisfactory outcome. The parks commissioner explained that his department had been cutting down a number of dead trees in recent years, but that nothing on a wholesale scale had been attempted. The ordinary run of unemployed help could not do the work, as skilled woodsmen would be needed. He contended there would be likelihood of accidents if unskilled fmen were set at the job. HAILEYBURY CHARGING FIVE CENTS FOR DAILIES Local newsdemers nave this week raised the price of all daily papers to five cents, when bought sing!ly. They claim that Haileybury is the only town north of North Bay where the threeâ€" cent rate has been in force and that the profits are so small that handling the papers is not worth while. Anyâ€" way, nothing smaller than a nickel will purchase a daily paper now and those who get their news in this way will have no furthsr bother taking care of the coppers received in exchange. The monthly rate of 50 cents, in force for most of the dailies, remains the same. BIRTHS, MARRIAGES AND DEATHS AT MOOSE FACTORY The story of all the births, marriages and deaths of a community would tell the whole story of the settlement, acâ€" cording to one oldâ€"time editor on this continent. On this principle, the full story of Moose Factory is told last week in The Northern Tribune so far as 1930 is concerned. In a letter received by the Kapuskasing newspaper from the famoust post in the James Bay area the following list of births, marâ€" riages and dcaths is given :â€" Births at Moose in 1930 Sydney James, child of James ‘and Margaret Sack. Caroline Lucy, child of Daniel and Nellie Sailors. Matthew, child of James and Mary Chum. Hilda, child of John and Emily Koâ€" ostan. _Jimmie Frank, child of David and Hannah Roberts.

IT WAS A NICE NIGHT BUT A DIFFERENT KIND OF KNIGHT In locking over the fyles this week for material for the column, ‘"Ten Years Ago in Timmins," The Advance came upon the following little story, founded on fact, that used to greatly amuse the late T. F. King, who never tired of tellâ€" ing the story on any proper occasion. The story illustrates that spirit of friendly good humour that used to feaâ€" ture life in Timmins, and still does, it is to be hoped. And may it continue so. The story as told by The Advance ten years ago was as follows:â€" "Mr. T. F. KWing admits that the joke | was on him, but it was so kindly and goodâ€"humouredly carried through that he does not object at all. Recently he was told that the Knights of Columbus were having a dinner, and as a good Knight he thought he would attend. Just at the moment it did not strike him as peculiar that they should be | holding their dinner in the Presbyterian Church. Possibly, if anyone had called his attention to this fact as an add feature he would have repiled that in the North Land the people are so demoâ€" cratic, so friendly and so little given to drawing lines of creed or anything like that, that it was quite natural that the most convenient place should be used, irrespecive of unimportant deâ€" tails. Anyway, Tom, so the story g0o€S went to the dinner. He knew many there, but missed a few that he thought should be there. But everybody gave him a hearty welcome and soon he was seated at the table in the midst of the pleasant company. After a time he began to be a little suspicious. The goat did not have its whiskers parted the same way as on the Knights of iColumbus initiating goat, and there were other little things that seeemed different to theK. of C. Then, he disâ€" covered that he had "been welcomed into a meeting, not of the Knights of Columbus but of the Knights Templat, 'an advanced Masonic fraternity. Tom ‘excused himself and wished to withâ€" draw, but they would not let him. He had to stay to the end of the little banquet. But it was not much of an ‘ordeal. Everybody was pleasant and friendly and the true spirit of fraterâ€" | nity was in evidence on both sides. The ‘ special guest of this special meeting of ‘the Knights Templar is reported as isaying that he thought the group of Knights Templar was fine enough felâ€" lows to be Knights of Columbus, while the special hosts were tempted to make Knight Templar of Tom." SHOPPING DAYS to HOP EARLY 40 Thirtyâ€"One Naturalized in District of Cochrane On Thursday last there were 31 new subjects who took the oath of allegiâ€" ance to His Majesty George V. of Great Britain and Ireland, and of the Doâ€" minions Beyond the Seas, King, Emâ€" peror of India, etec. These new Canâ€" adian citizens duly sworn in as loyal subjects of the British Crown came from different parts of the District of Cochrane, though the majority of them are residents of the town of Timmins at the present time. Of the 31 foreignâ€"born citizens who last week were duly naturalized before His Honour Judge Caron, Judge of the District of Cochrane, the largest numâ€" ber were Italians, there being ten of them. Italians make excellent citizens and usually when they show desire to become naturalized citizens of Canada it will be found that they are earnest in their desire to be the best sort of citizens of this country and will prove true and loyal Canadians. Expsrience in the past has shown this to be the fact. There were five Russians among those applying for naturalization and being granted that privilege. Then there were four men of Polish descent and an equal number of men of Finâ€" nish birth. There were three Swedes and three Germans seeking and being granted Canadian citizenship. Anâ€" cther in the list was a former citizen of the United States. (From The Sudbury Star) An Aberdonian wished to catch the morning train to London and, being s heavy sleeper, was in doubt if he would wake up sufficiently early. He thought of several methods to insure success, but each seamed to indicate the necessity for a tip. In the end he postâ€" ed himself a letter with a stamp. Next morning early there came A thunderous rattle in the door. The "Tak‘ it back," commanded the wily one. like t‘ha‘b doesna deserve to be encouraged." WEDDING GUEST AT ROUYN STARTED BIG CELEBRATION Some days ago there was a very quiet | wedding among some foreigners at Rouyn. After the ceremony a few rounds of drinks of beer were being enâ€" joyed by the guests and care was being taken to get the empty beer bottles outâ€" side the house as soon as possible, so that if Police Chief Wilfred Perreault happened along he might not be cross at seeing so many empty beer bottles and so many full foreigners in the one house. As soon as bottle was empâ€" tied, the plan was to open the back door and throw it outâ€"that is, throw the bottle, not the back door. One guest thought he could improve on this plan by throwing the bottles out of the window, without opening the window. Some of the guests did not like this idea, and so they took sides, and those in favour of the window plan threw the bottles at those opposed and vice versa, also et cetera and e pluribus unum. The proceedings became SO noisy that the police came along and half a dozen of the guests were arrestâ€" ed, paying fines the next day and this helping the cause of sidewalks for Rouyn. . Toronto Mail and Empireâ€"In letter to Queen Victoria from her grandson, the former Kaiser, which has just been published, he tells her that he was afraid Bismarck would throw an inkâ€" stand at his head. Probab‘ly Bismarck would have done so if he could have locked far enough in to the future. A .«llll.l./../.lIlfif%’lflffilifilfilfillIll’./.lllilllll’l’l,lffllll Austin Neame, President A,. E.

Dunn, a former chief of police at Cobalt, is in the Mines hospital at Cobalt with a broken foot, sustained in Cobalt with a broken foot, sustained in an accident at the Cobalt property of the Mining Corpfforation early on Wedâ€" nesday morning of last week. While he and others were engaged at work underground, a large stone became disâ€" lodged and fell some distance, striking Dunn on the foot before he could get clear of its path. He had narrow escape from more serious injury. The injured man was taken to the hospital where a subsequent Xâ€"ray examination showed a clean break in the bone of the right foot. The patient will be alâ€" lowed to leave the hospital when the swelling on his foot has subsided suffiâ€" ciently to permit of the injured memâ€" ber being placed in a plaster cast.
