The report dealt with the tournament gup to Wednesday night. The tourna- lment was held in the McIntyre Recrea- tion hall and aroused an unusual amount of interest, there being many‘ lspectators in addition to those in the} contests. There were 42 entries and [all the features of the tournament were keenly contested. Of the forty-two lentered there were only eight remain- ‘on Wednesday night who had not met defeat. At the time the report was secured it was expected that the semi- finals would be completed on Thursday evening and the finals decided the fol- lowing night. There were three main events and consolation in each event for players eliminated in the first draw. The following were the results up to last Wednesday night in the Ladies’ doubles. men's doubels and mixed doubles:â€" Great Intermt Shown in Event.

The Greek and Roman children loved their jc-inted dolls, which moved at the tug of a string. They also played with toy furniture, balls. tops and rattles. Toy animals were a great favourite with the ancients, even as they are with children to-day. It may be interesting at this season of the year to glance at the history of toys, 9. history that extends to the most remote periods of which there are re- cords. Archaeologists have unearthed from time to time in Egypt, specimens of wooden. earthenware. stone and me- tal dolls. Some of these are painted. and have moveabLe arms and legs. In the British Museum there is a very an- cient bronze woman doll bearing a pct Toy-making in Canada is a growing industry. but a considerable proportion of toys is imported from other coun- tries. Figures compiled by the Statis- tical Branch of the Department of Na- tional Revenue show that the total toy imports, including dolls, for the year ended March 31, 1930, amounted to $2.- 691,408. Of this total, imports from the United States were $1,077,504; Ger- many, $971,665; the United Kingdom. $331,142; Japan, 3201.046; Czecho-Slo- vakia, $42,137; France, $40,126. In the same fiscal year Canadian exports of toys, including dolls. etc., were valued1 at $32.262; an increase over the previ- ous year of over five thousand dollars'. The principal buyers of Canadian-made toys are the United States, New Zea- land and Newfoundland. (From Nationan Revenue Review!) With Santa Claus on his sleigh with eight reindeer, Dancer, Prancer.

Where Santa Claus Gets His Toys for Christmas ‘THE PORCUPIN E ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Ottawa. Jamalzâ€"Heredity is some- thing a father believes in until his son starts playing the fool. “Reginald McKenna, war-time Chan- cellor of the Exchequer and now chair- man of the Midland Bank, is an expon- ent of a managed currency in prefer- ence to the straight gold standard. It is obvious from Canadian experience of the past two years that gold is not absolute in Canadian currency, though it is essential to stability and security. In 1929, by arrangement, there was a practical embargo on gold movement in this country. The federal reserve was permitted to get down to $61,647,000 on June 30, 1929. But by September 30. 1930. it had risen to over $95,000,000. Yet it. is plain that this larger supply of gold did not prove equal to holdingr prices up, for the reason that supply and demand outside Canada had effect on prices in this country. But it was an agreeable fact that for the past fourj months the Canadian dollar was at al premium in New York, while exports fell below the 1929 record. In this con- nection it is to the point to recall what 'Reginald McKenna’s comment said: “It must be remembered that whether we are on a gold or any other standard fthe direction in which the price level moves is immediately determined by the volume of money as modified by its rate of turnover in relation to the volume of business." It is an accepted feature of American banking policy in Federal Reserve activities that the bank rate has a direct effect on price levels. In line with that theory the Us. Feder- al Reserve Board moved the bank rate up or down, as seemed to he demanded by economic conditions. and particular- I ly the gyrations of the stock markets in 1928 and 1929. It would appear there is need at present for vigilance to help restore the market. not only of securities. but also of basic commodiw ties.“ "J. M. Keynes has stated that “after the discovery of gold in Australia and California, geld began to depreciate dangerously. and before the exploita- tion of South Africa it began to appre- ciate dangerously. Yet in each case it righted itself and retained its reputa- tion." Let. us hope that gold will again be produced in quantity more in keep- ing with demand, so that the pressure may be relaxed and the advantage now possessed by the holders of gold be shortened. te-m of "managed currency” which might serve to end the domination of gold. The fact that two-thirds of the world‘s gold currency is held by two nations, 54.500.000.000 by the United States and $1,500,000,000 by France, lends support to the claim that the re- stricted movement of gold, within banking circles, has helped to depreci- ! ate prices. But there is always a dan- ger that in an economic crisis, such as exists at present in the financial world, exponents of a remedial theory may over-state the case. General conditions have been adversely affected in Canada by the low prices for wheat and farm‘ products, but when it is considered that 1 world production of wheat has increas- ed under conditions of lessened con- sumption, it seems unwarranted to at- tribute the result to the power of gold. It might be contended with more rea- son that the decreased buying power of I the imponting countries is a result of the shortage and restricted circulation of gold, which in turn reacted on prices of commodities which continued to be produced at a ratio out of proportion to demand. But it must be plain that until there is a better balance between supply and demand for wheat, prices will not show any decided change. “It is not surprising that in view of the current low prices for basic com~ modities, and the decrease in annual world production of gold, that there should be much casting about for a. sys- of gold supply for the world and it is difficult to see how the Empire could consider the discontinuance of the gold standard without the most serious loss and damage. The question is very ably deait with in an editorial article in The Ottawa Journal of Tuesday of this week, both angles of the question being briefly but effectively touched upon. In this connection The Ottawa Journal editorial says:â€" The question of the maintenance of the gold standard or the adoption of a managed currency is being widely dis- cussed at the present time. Reference is made elsewhere to the ideas or other- wise of Miss Agnes MacPhail, M.P., on the question. The matter is of very great importance to the North Land as the discarding of the gold standard would have a serious effect on the gold mining industry.

At the last meeting of the township council at Kirkland Lake authority was ; given the Kirkland Lake branch of the [Canadian Legion to register all unem- ployed men in the township of Teck with a view to finding out the number of destitute men in the camp. If necessary, the Legion will open an army kitchen to feed the destitute. Mr. Reg. Charlick, spokesman for the Legion, thought there was a need for some as- sistance for unemployed men, especial.- ly single men, judging by the numbers, :who daily gathered around the mine employment bureaus. Cases had come to his notice where men were seen .ac- tually examining contents of garbage cans to secure something to eat. The needs of the younger men, he said. were not being looked after. Council- lor Fraser voiced strong opposition to the idea of a soup kitchen which he did not think was at all necessary. The council as a whole gave approval to the plans of the Legion, and registra- tion of the unemployed was authorized to start at once.
