ARCHER, Number Ontarto separaticn is coming as sure as fate. Mr. eFrguson himself has declarsd that the woerld‘s greatest need is for Imâ€" perial unity. Year by year the prceontâ€" age of Canadian born rises in Canada. We are getting further and furthsr away from natal sentiment toward the old lands. We are growing stronger, more selfâ€"reliant, year by year. The war made us feel that we were quite capable of looking after ourselives if the nesd arose. Those who deplore this slow but sure drifting apart of the two countries must agree that the High Commissionership calls for a man who will be decidedly something more than decorative at functions; it calls for an extremely able and enérgetic man. mA pire, speaking for Canada and endeavâ€" ouring to bring this country and the mether country into closer relationship. Since the war, and promoted by war events, there has been a drifting away from Imperial connection in Canada. Onse hears far more talk today than at any time in many years to the effect that Canada would be better off if it were a completely separate nation, and unless something is done to make Can adians realize that Great Britain is nJs altcgether selfish and selfâ€"ceontred, an forcibly make Englishmen aware of th fesling that is in Carzx. (From The Northern Miner) When a man is presented with the cpportunity of doing very important work for his country he cannot very well decline, especially ~if he be~ man whose makeâ€"up contains a strongâ€"flowâ€" ing desire to serve his fellow men. It therefore oppears that the Ontario prime ministry may lose Hon. G. Howard Ferâ€" guson, and Canada and the Empire gain im as this nation‘s representative at London, unless his party followers inâ€" sist that his greater duty is at home. Let us make no mistake about this mattsr; a man of great force of charâ€" acter, gifted with tact, perseverancse, understanding, and alive with Imperial zeal, should be at the heart of the Emâ€" Direct governmental supervision of the mining industry fortunately has continued in very capable hands, and we may hope that long after the presen: actors have left the stage the habit of government encouragement to the inâ€" dustry will continue to strongly rule. but it cannot be denied that, should Mr. Ferguson go to London, we shall miss personal friend. We can only trust that if he must go, his presence there will lead to a better understandâ€" Mr. Wells will also give some interestâ€" ing figures on the membership and inâ€" surance strength of the Order. Th membership as of June 30 was 618,611 in 2,555 councils in the United States, Canada Philippine Islands, Cuba, Mexâ€" ico, Porto Rico, Newfoundland, Alaska and Panama. The insurance in force was $288,304,640 and the insurance liaâ€" bilities as calculated by the actuaries on Jan. 1 were $23,370,629. The ratio of assets to liabilities was 13044 per cent. and the margin of safety was 30.44 per cent. over and above the staâ€" tuory standards. Hon. G.

The rider sponsors the only graduate boy guidance course in the world at Notre Dame University and also conducts tenâ€"night institutes in boyology in coâ€"operation with other boy work organizations. The Columâ€" bian Squires, junior organization of the Knizhts of Columbus, has circles in many parts of the United States and Canada and is growing steadily. Information sent to The Advance from New Haven, Connecticut, U.S.A., is to the effect that W. A. Wells represenâ€" tative of the Supreme Council, Knights of Columbus, will visit five Northern Ontario councils, during the week of Dec. 2. He will arrive in Cobalt on Tuesday, Dec. 2, and will be the guest of Cobalt Council on that date. On Dec. 3, he will visit Haileybury Ccuncil in Haileybury. On Dec. 4, he will visit Iroquois Falls Council in Iroqusis Falls.

The action for damagss brought against the townships of Dack and Evanturel by Wm. Schaffiner, of near Englehart, has been setiled, according to advices from Haileybury. The case arose from the death of Mr. Schaffner‘s young son in a runaway accident on a road at the boundary line of the ‘two townships last spring. It was claimed that the condition of the road was reâ€" sponsible for the accident, the horses taking fright and running away when the condition of the road resulted in such jolting of the wagon that the aniâ€" mals became frightened and uncontrollâ€" able. The boy sustained such injuries that he died before he could be taken to medical aid. The father entered suit for $5,000.00 damages and the case was to have come before the Supreme Court at its mnext sittings in Haileybury, but in the meantime the parties concerned reached an agreement in the matter and the case was settled out of court last week. The terms of the agreement between the pririrties is noi known at present. NOTED WHITE BUCK OF TILDEN LAKE SHOT SOME DAYS AGO What was known to many hunters and others as the "white buck of Tilâ€" dsn Lake," near North Bay, was shot recently by Stan Gordon, of North Bay. This white buck was often noted by hunters and others during the past few years and had often been shot at, but managed to dodge all bullets until the North Bay man did the trick. The buck, noticeable on accourt of its light 2olouring had been very frequently notâ€" d by men in the bush previous to the opening of the season and for some reaâ€" son, apparent to many but not apparâ€" ant to others, there were many hunters who are particularly anxious to get this buck when the season opened.

Many have come into the life of our country and made their homes with us, contributing to our welâ€" fare. But we all have a great duty to see that in the selection of new populaâ€" tion we must exercise the strictest rigidity," ‘he continued. The minister was of the opinion that examination of immigrants should take place at the country of origin and not wait until they had landed in Canada. Duty to People First Mr. Gordon declared that the govâ€" ernment should make available, for our own people first, the tremendous opâ€" portunities offered in the Dominion. Attention should be directed to the Briâ€" tish Isles, he continued, where there were many people who, under proper observation, could come into the counâ€" try. "The last few months," said Mr. Gorâ€" daon, "we have received back in Canada, probably promyied by the country‘s reâ€" covery from a big world depression, many who left to go to the United Statos. Iam sure they come back with deepvr appreciation of their own country than ever before." Toronto Mail and Empire’:â€"In preâ€" dicting that the next world war will ocâ€" cur as soon as 1932, General Ludendorff probably means that he hopes to live long enough to see it. All people who come into Canada must realize that they are entering inâ€" to a British country, the minister said. ‘They must realize they come into the life of a people who are immensely proud of the institutions they have build up and they should do everything in their poawer to take their place in the country‘s social life. "We have every reason to jealously guard the traditions of our British anâ€" cestry," he continued, "and we must build up our country by our Britishâ€" Canadian strain. We must be strict in all matters referring to the complexion of cour population. Minisier of Immigration Makes Big Hit in Addres Last Week to the Canâ€" adian CluKÂ¥ at Vancouver, B.C.

The general sessions of the psace at Cochrane last week occupied only a| short time. There were some jurorsi and witnesses from this section but they were not detained very long the court’ proceedings cnly occupying an hcur. Every civil cases on the docket for ths jury was settled without need of further court proceedings and the criminal cases were soon disposed of, some pleading guilty and cthers electing t,riali without a jury. His Honour Judge J.| B. T. Caron presided. The suit of Carl Wiitanen vs Provincial Constables Page, Kiernan and Reavely was settled out of court. It is understood that $900.00 was accepted in settlement, the three dsâ€" fendants giving a note for the amcunt. This was the case for damages arisingi from the incident on the highway neari Cochrane Wiitanen accusing the three‘ officers of attacking him and causing him quite serious injury requiring medical attention, his collarbone being | fractured and other damage sustaincd. 1 Baxter Leduc pleaded guilty to a charge of forgery and was allowed to go on susp>onded sentence. The charge arose from the raising of a T. N. O. cheque from 30 cents to thirty dollars. Crown Attorney Caldbick in outlining the case to His Honour explained tha. the accused had previously borne a very scod character and this lapse had ocâ€" curred when he had been intfoxicated. A friend wh» had passed the cheque in question had been tried by the magistâ€" rate and had bsen given suspended sentence, andâ€"Judge Caron made a similar disposition Oof Leduc‘s case.

"The same service as in the Royal York," said one of the men at the work, who added that you noticed the difference chiefly in the higher prices charged in the big hotels. Present indications are that the two tunnels now being constructed will be completed by Feb. 15th. These tunâ€" nels are 34 feet in diameter and lined with solid concrete, making the finishâ€" ed tunnel 32 feet in diameter,. These tunnels are to be used as permanent sluiceways, instead of having sluices in the dam. There are two electric shovels at work in the tunnelling operâ€" ations to do the mucking. The tunnels are twelve hundred feet long. According to despatches from Toâ€" ronto, the Heron Bay districtâ€"part of that desolateâ€"looking stretch of counâ€" try one views from the train car window along the north shore of Lake Superior â€"may not be so poor, after all. In fac: a report made t6 the Department of Mines by J. E. Thomson, geologist, and released last week by Hon. Charles Mcâ€" Crea, indicates that chances of locating gold in the area in â€"question are, from a geological point of view; "extremely favourable." At present the Dominion Construcâ€" tion Co., in charge of the work, are planning to instal a library and readâ€" ing room for the men in the camp. Heron Bay Area Said to be Extremely Favourabic Up to the present time this district has largely escaped intensive prospectâ€" ing, although a few groups of claims have been staked in the more accessible regions along the Pic River and the shore of Lake Superior. Near Playter‘s Harbour, and about a mile south of Pic Township, lenticular quartz vein in schisted greenstone has been uncovered averaging 27 feet in width. It has also been traced 140 feet by ¢trenching. Mr. Thomson‘s report, based on survey he made of the country during the past summer and fall, states that the Preâ€"Cambrian rocks of the area are all of the igneous type. Greenstones can be traced from near Peninsula Staâ€" tion southward along the lake shore for a distance of eight miles. Continuing east of the Pic River, the greenstone is divided into three distinct belts seâ€" parated by intrusiveâ€"stocks of granite and granite gneiss. The two southern belts trend eastward and have an averâ€" age width of about three miles. The most northerly of these has been traced as far east as Helmo Station. The limits of the northern greenstone area are unknown, but it is reported to be of very considerable extent. The most modern methods have beon used to provide the best in sanitation comfort and convenience. at Abitibi Canyon. There are four big bunk houses for the labouring men, and these bunk houses are specially wellâ€"appointâ€" ed. They are clean and upâ€"toâ€"date. Water, sewerage and electric lights have been installed for the whole camp. Mcdetn rlumbing is a special feature. The cookeries are specially worthy of mention. Here everything is the latest and best. One of the features is an arâ€" tificial refrigeration plant. There is storage for a week‘s supply of butter, eggs, meat, vegetables, etc., for 1200 men, everything being kept at a temâ€" perature of 34 degrees, The cattle are killed and the meat cut at Abitibi Canâ€" yon.

SEED WINS CASE WITH * CO®TS IN THE MINING COURT Many from Timmins who have had occasion to visit the Atbitibi Canyon camp, north of Cochreéze, where the big hydro electric developmen. project is under way for the supplying of power to the Sudbury camp, have expressed enthusiastic praise for the buildings and equipment there for the accommcdaâ€" tion of the men employed on the work.
