Thanks were also expressed to the Iroquois Falls and Ansonville Scciety, and particularly to President Frank Miller and Secretary Regimbal, for the great work done by their branch; also to thse ladies‘ campaign committee, headed by Mrs. H. W. Dariâ€" ing and Mrs. K. Eyre, for the success of the campaign for funds, and also to all cthers who had contributed to the success of the work. It was explained that the work of the Children‘s Aid was maintained by payâ€" ments by the towns and provinces for children chargeable as wards, by grants, and by voluntary subscriptions. Until chi‘ldiren were formally made wards there was no one to whom their mainâ€" tenance could ‘be charged and in the case of children temporarily helped and their homes improved so they could be left there the expenses that might be incurred must be borne by the society. While the province and the towns paid 75c per day per child for maintenance and the actual cost was only 69 cents p)}‘r day per child, the cost of the genâ€" eral activities of the society and the necessary expenses for children before they became wards made the voluntary subscriptions and grants necessary to carry on the work. The president expressed sincere apâ€" preciation for the excellent work cf the local superintendent A. G. Carson, and the matron, Mrs. E. M. Condie. The gocd work of these officials was a matâ€" account, including repairs, new equipâ€" ment, etc. $1,009.00; provisions, inâ€" cluding groceries, meats, milk, bread, etc. $2,664.04; clothing, including boots, etc., $7754.99; fuel, $469.25; hospital and medicine, $198.61; sundry, $313.25; acâ€" counts unpaid at Oct. 31st, 1930, $262.00; total $7,471.39.

Hitherto the Iroquois Falls mill has centred its attention on the production of newsprint in rolls this beâ€" ing the form in which the daily newsâ€" papers use newsprint on their high sperd presses. Up to the present the rrant at Iroquois Falls has not been quipped to handle what is known as "flat" newsprint, to distinguish it from ‘he "roll" variety. Now, however, it is ‘ntended that the "flat" newsprint will 32 obtainable at the Iroquois Falls mill in addition to the newsprint in the roll form. In referring to the fact that the Iroquois Falls plant was now being equipped to handle the fiat newsprint trade, The Advance said that the most upâ€"toâ€"date equirment had been installâ€" ed, and that it was understood that some fifty girls would be brought to the Falls from other towns to handle cerâ€" tain features of the new work, such as counting the sheets, etc. Mr. Ed. Silâ€" ver, mill manager at Iroquois Falls for the Abitibi this week called the atâ€" tention of The Advance to the fact that an error was made in suggesting that any girls were to be imported to Iroquco‘is Falls in this connection. The article otherwise was quite correct, but the mill at the Falls would be continuâ€" ed as at present with the policy of emâ€" ploying local help so far as possible. Mr. Silver said that no importations were necessary in the matter and none were contemplated. Cobalt will have both Intermediate and Junior teams in the N. O. H. A. this season.

Some of the local stores have been much annoyed recently and have lost heavily through the work of shoplifters. The T.

She pleaded guilty, and was required to give a bond for good behaviour and alâ€" so to keep out of the Eaton store for two years.

It is said that the next census is to embrace several new features, it being the practice to make each successive census more elaborate that the preceding one. Question is, won‘t a great many people feel that they are being questioned too closely about personal matters? There was nearly from common drunks to shoplifting, assault and reckess driving at police court this week. Two men were fined the usual ten and costs each for drunkenness. A similar fine was imposed in a case of reckless driving. Two liquor cases were withdrawn and one man paid $100.00 and costs for illegal possession of liquor. Two men charged with ‘theft from houses had to pay the costs of the court, sign a bond for future good beâ€" haviour and were given suspended senâ€" tence for one year. Anothsr man, charged with one¢of the two others, was acquitted. Three men were each fined $10.00 and costs on charge of assault. Another assault case was adâ€" journed for a week. Still another man in assault case had to sign a bond for a year and pay costs, his assault being on a small boy. A theft and houseâ€" breaking charge was adjcurned for a week.

There is no reason why Timmins should not enter an amateur team of which the whole town might well be proud. The popuâ€" lation necessary to support a team is here. There is plenty of local talent to draw from and all that is needed is encouragement and support for the players and those who without thought of rmuneration or again are spending their time and money to make the venâ€" ture a success.
