F. KENNING, Kâ€"F M.L,A. Cochrane South. ‘ To this letter Mr. McDoffald, the deâ€" puty minister of the Game and Fishâ€" eries Dept., made reply, saying that the !matter was to be given attention during the year and that investigation and atâ€" i tention were being duly given the quesâ€" | tion. Some weeks ago The Advance referâ€" red to the representations made by the Timmins representative to the Fish and Game Conservation Commission msetâ€" ing and the efforts made at that meetâ€" ing to the nsed for fish ladders at the ‘dams on the Mattagami river It is inâ€" teresting to note that for several years past A. F. Kenning, M.P.P. for this ridâ€" ing has been working on this matter and his efforts have met with success. |The report of the Fish and Game Conâ€" servation Commission as published in The Advance some weeks ago recomâ€" mended the installing of fish ladders on \ the Mattagamiâ€"river. «When Mtr. Kenâ€" ‘ning was asked about the matter he ishowed letters he had been writting in |reference to this need for some years ,I,ast The following is a copy of one of these letter and is typical of OthBl’o sent on previous occasions:â€" | Toronto, March 27th, 1929. Mattagami Riverâ€"Canada Nort,hern; Power Company. ~Species of fish afâ€":| fected, pickerel and speckled trout. In | this connection it is recommended that | a fish ladder is advisable. Dear Mr. Kenning:â€"Quite some time ago you wrote to me suggesting the construction of fish ladders at certain power dams. For your information I now enclose a copy of memorandum on the subject from the Deputy Minister of Game and Fisheries, together with a copy of my reply. A. F. Kenning, Esq., M.P.P Timmins, Ontario. Last year Mr. A. F. Konning, M.P.P., brought to the attention of the departâ€" ment certain dams which had Smoosth Rock Falls, constructed by the Abitibi Paper Company. Spacies of ficsh affected, pike, sturgeon and pickâ€" erel. In this case it is recommended that a fish ladder is necessary. Mr. Kenning kept following up the matter, and in May of this year reâ€" ceived the following note from Hon. Chas. McCrea, Minister of Mines, under whose department the matter of gams and fisheries comes:â€" Toronto, Ontario, The following is the memorandum to which Hon. Mr. McCrea referred:â€" Toronto, 2, April 28, 1930 Memorandum For Th Honourable Charles MceCrea:â€" been constructed and had not been proâ€" vided with fish ladders in accordance with the Fish:ries Act The matter was reforred to the Direcior of the Fish Culture Branch for investigation and report. This report has now been reâ€" After the installations of the dams on which no fish ladders were placed these trout gradually diminished and toâ€"day there are very few in these streams. Under the Act and in the charter given to the power companies, it distinctly stipulates that these fish ladders should be installed. I would mention the following dams particularly:â€"The one on Grassy River, cone at Wawaitin Falls, one at Sandy Falls, and one at Smooth Rock Falls. If it is the intention, and I know it is, of the Department to conserve the fish in Northern Ontario, I do not think that you will ever obtain any good by putting in fry into these streams unless we instal sthe ladders which will give them a proper chance in later years to get up stream to spawn. All the sporting associations in the North feel very strongly in regard to this matter, and I am sure that you and your department would be well advised if you went into this matter immediateâ€" ly. D. McDonald, Esq. Deputy Minister of Game and Fisheries Parliament Buildings, Toronto. Dear Mr. McDonald:â€"At different times during the past three our four years, I have written you myself, and I am sure you have been in receipt of many letters from fishermen, and others in the town of Timmins, comâ€" plaining most strenuously against the condition of the power dams on the Mattagami River. This complaint is advocating the installation of fish ladâ€" ders on these various dams. I can remember distinctly before the war that the Mattagami River and its tributaries, such as the Red Sucker and the Grassy River were abundant with speckled trout. Some of them even running as high as eight and nine pounds each. Government has; Agreed to This Plan for Conservation of Fish in Matâ€" tagami River, A. F. Kenning, M.P.P. Does Good Work in Matter.

YOUNG GIRL UNLUCKY IN LOVE TRIES OUT SUICIDE SALE OF WORK AND OF HOME BAKING, THURSDAY, NOV. 27 Dear Sir:â€"I see by the hewspapers there is a lot about a winter road to Matachewan, and every route suggested is claimed to be the best way. Now, t@ my mind the easiest way and quickes: is to go by way of the Transmission lime, which you can readily See from the erclosed map. This road via the Transâ€" mission line is a good winter road and kept open by the Gagne Lumber C3., who cperate in Cleaver townshizrt They branch off the Transmission line where ‘he line crosses Night Hawk Lake, 12 miles from South Porcupine. From there scuth to Bannockburn was used as a winter road and all trees cut down for 100 feet wide. Only small stuff to ‘cut. Eight or ten men will cut a goosd winter road there in less than a month. Most of the stuff to cut is bush hook stuff rather than for axes. If Timmins wants rcad this is the best, quickest and cheapest. D. O‘Connor, eof Connaught, this week has favoured The Advance with a letter regarding the cheapest and best route for a road to connect Timmins and the Matachewan area. With his letter Mr. O‘Connor enclosed a map which proves the accuracy of what he says. The leicter is as follows:â€" moeont assembles in December he will certainly worthily represent the riding of South Cochrane in the interesting and useful sessions of the Older Boys‘ Parliament of Ontario. To the Editor of The Advance, Timmins branch off the the line cross miles from S there scuth to as a winter ro: for 100 feet w cut.

Buchanan, Toâ€" ronto; John H. Lauman, Kitchener; and William E. Leonard, Peterborough. Each of these young men announces his platform in clearâ€"cut and able manâ€" ner and makes appeal for the franchises of his comrades in effective way. The platforms are all interesting and show not only good ability but also a thoughtful desire to do whatever may be done for the cause of the boys. While Ray Wallingford has the special honour of an acclamation and so is not actively in the battle now on, he no doubt will be lined up with one or other of the candidates for leadership of the Boys‘ Parliament, and when, the parliaâ€" Best and Cheapest Route to the Matachewan Camp The Boys‘ Parliament is a feature | growing out of the Boys‘ Work moveâ€" ment in Ontario, "for the allâ€"rouns development of Ontario‘s boy life."
