Bennett "He has, moveover, given assurances to those interested in importing Welsh anthracite into Canada that they can safely increase their commitments as he will not allow legitimate trade beâ€" tween Great Britain and Canada to be interfered with by Soviet dumping. Thousands of South Wales miners will consequently have the certainty of emâ€" ployment, English railway companies and ports will have work, English shareholders will have profits, and trade between the Mother Country and Canâ€" ada will be developed." (Toronto Mail and Empire) The London Times prints a letter from Lord Melchett, the great Liberal industrialist, well known to Canada, in support of the Rt. Hon. R. B. Bennett‘s "crushing reply to Mr. Thomas‘ grossly improper speech in the House of Comâ€" mons." In the same letter, his lordship approves Mr. Bennett‘s resentment at the way in which the Labour Governâ€" ment treated the Dominion Premiers at the Imperial Conference. Lord Melâ€" chett contrasts the Canadian Trime Minister‘s treatment of a British indusâ€" try with the British Labour Governâ€" ment‘s treatment of Canadian wheat. He notes that, Mr. Bennett‘s attention having been called to the dumping of Soviet coal in Canada, he took immeâ€" diate steps to check that abuse. "On reaching these shores," continâ€" ues his lordaship, "and finding the great Canadian grain trade seriously harassed and hampered by the dumping of Rusâ€" sian wheat, the only satisfaction Mr. Bennett cbtains is that, we do not care whether we buy wheat from our own kith and kin, grown on the prairies of the Dominion of Canada by those desâ€" cended from British stock, produced by those who fought shoulder to shoulder with us during the Great War, members and citizens of the Empire of which we are all proudâ€"if we can only get it a little cheaper from the wretched Rusâ€" sian peasant, from whom it is being extracted by the machineâ€"guns of the Soviet tyranny." In conclusion, Melchett calls for a more fundamental feeling of race, with a wider vision for the future and greatâ€" er gratitude for the past, and for inâ€" telligent coâ€"operation in the developâ€" ment of mutual trade within the Emâ€" pire. (From The Montreal Star) The appointment of Viscount Willâ€" ingdon to the highly responsible and exalted office of Viceroy of India will be warmly acclaimed, not only by the great army of men and women with whom he has been officially brought into contact, but also by the even Lagger band of siâ€" lent admirers who have watched his long career of public service. Canada will be especially proud over the nominâ€" ation. The highest honour in the gift cf the Crown is not lightly bestowed and that the Governorâ€"General of Caâ€" nada should be chzssen from the long catalogue of British statesmen and civil servants enhances the importance cf the Dominion post and does honour to a man who has won the hearts of all Canadians. If is not the first tims that a Canadian Governorâ€"General has been translated to the viceroyalty of India, for Lord Dalhousie and Lord Minto afâ€" ford precedents in the past. Yet in neither case was the choice made while the incumbent was still representing his Sovereign in Canada and at no time in its"history ‘has the Empire nseded wiser counsel or sounder judgment than she dses today. Lord and Lady Willâ€" ingdon will not go to India as strangars. As long ago as 1913 the new viceroy was governor of Bombay and throughâ€" out the trying years of war he remained at this responsible post. In 1919 Lord Willingdon was transferred to Madras where he represented His Majesty as Governor during the next five years. Before going to India Lord Wiillingdon (then known as Mr. Freemanâ€"Thcomas) APPOiNTMENT OF VISCOUNT WILLINGDON AS VICEROY sat for ten years in the House of Comâ€" mons, serving during the latter part of his term as a junior Lord of the Treasâ€" ury. He knows Indiza as few men know her, for he tackled the problems of government at the most elastic pericd of India‘s development with the zeal of the student and the clear sight of a man of culture. y honored by sident of the invitation he Trelle, though ipionship at Fair for the elated at his outstanding success, attained with hard red spring, was even more pleased with the third he was awarded for hard red winter, which, he mainâ€" tains, demonstrates the feasibility of raising it in Western Canada anrd also that he has moved the winter wheat line just 700 miles further north. Insert shows Mr. Trelle and Mr. Beatty. (From The Sudbury Ster» A life that has followed the lure of go‘ld ovoer, strange paths from the trail of ‘98 to the nickel claims in the Sudâ€" bury district, was closed on Priday, Deâ€" cember 19, when Joseph Rowan Hogarth formerly of Pembroke, passed away at St. Joseph‘s hospital, Sudbury. Deceasâ€" ed was born at Pembroke on March 2, 1854, and spent his early days there. As so many from that district had done hss came north to this district on the UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE URGED BY LABOUR LEADER TIMMINS MAN BERFEAVED BY RECENT DEATH OF UNCLX In his Christmas message, issued last week, Tom Moore, president of the Trades and Labour Congress of Canâ€" ada, says that through preparing for depression in times of prosperity, and through the proper use of nationâ€"wide unemployment insurance, the worsi features of hard times can be eliminâ€" ated in future. Organized labour he points out, has long advocated such measures, and he thinks that the preâ€" sent period of distress has led to the acceptance by many people of such measures as unemployment insurancse, though he recognizes that there are many obstacles to be overcome before they are put in effect. Mr. Moore‘s statement reads, in part: "At no period has there been greater need for the exercise of the true Christâ€" mas spirit than at the present time. To many people, absolute want is either a vague shadow of the past or totally unknown, and to those Christmas ofâ€" fers a real opportunity to bring a meaâ€" sure of cheer into the homes of others less fortunate." survey party that paved the way for the C.P.R. into Sudbury: The urge to follow adventure‘s lure was in his blood and when the spell of the Yukon spread to all parts of North America he was one cof the first to heed its call. He spent three years in the Klondike but if fortune favoured him at all it was cnly for a short visit and he returned to where his wanderlust had first callâ€" ed him and resided here since. His friends in the city and in the district were many and his reminiscences of life in the Klondike madse him an inâ€" teresting conversationalist. _ He never forsock backelorhood and made his home at the Nickel Range Hotel. For the past few years he was employed by the Ontario government as a timber scaler. Surviving are six nephews, Gesz. DC. M. Hogarth, of Toronto; Harry and David Hogarth, of Port Arthur; Lange Hogarth, of Timmins, and J. J. Hcgarth, of Parry Sound; and two nieces, Mrs. John Beatty of Sault Ste. Marie, and Mrs. Blackburn, of Toronâ€" to. The funeral was held Sunday afâ€" ternoon at 1.30 from Jackson‘s funeral parlours to Park Lawn cemetery, Reyv. F. F. Bull officiating. W. T. Robertson, of Winnipeg, Man was a Timmins visitor last week. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TTIMMINS. ONTARIO Ornrtario Associated Boards of Trade. There been an idea current that Paul Bunyan must have moved to some far distant clime. A generation has arisen that does not appear to know Paul or to love him and fear him as many generations in the Nortt once did. There has been a disposition to relegate Paul to the shades, but apâ€" parently he is among the immortals. The Advance has had innumerable reâ€" ferences to him, but never as a straight matter of news. The Toronto Mail and Empire, however, on Christmas Eve gives Paul front page news position. There is a twoâ€"column heading saying: "Paul Bunyan" is the legendary hero of the lumberjack and of others in this North. Tall storiecs about Paul have been current for many years. Some of them are almost as ridiculous as the idea of holding a "compremise‘" meetâ€" ing to upset the work of the Northern "Paul Bunyan, according to the tales bzing told now, was the hardest of the hard men who worked in the lumber camps cof Canada. He first made his appearance on that famous logging stream, the Ottawa River. There, as camp boss, he ruled with an iron hand and tender heart. But Paul did not confine his efforts to the Ottawa valâ€" ley, for he was an extensive traveller. On every logging stream in the Doâ€" minion, from the Maritimes to the Pacific coast, one can still szseeâ€"after being shown by the everâ€"ready guideâ€" the mountains raised by Paul Bunyan; the lakes dug out by Paul Bunyan; the depressions which mark the footâ€"staeps of Paul Bunyan, and hear of the huge meals eaten by Paul Bunyan. Legendary Hero of the North Reported as Returring to the Scenes of Forâ€" mer Triumphs at This Time of the Year. "Paul Bunyan, Tanada‘s Giant, Returns to His Old Haunts." The subâ€"heading tells of the "Man who Dug Great Laxkes, Built Rocky Mountains, Walked Forâ€" ests." The article itself, in a premier news position, says:â€" "Beneath the flaring Northern Lights, children ofâ€".all ages gathered last night, as they have gathered for many nights. In many a tiny backwoods home, a flaming backlog casts its welcome reâ€" flection to all parts of the room. Overâ€" head hovers the spirit of Paul Bunyan, Canada‘s largest if not greatest legendâ€" ary hero, for, according to wordâ€"ofâ€" mouth FEistory, as handed down from father to son and father to som again, it is at Christmas time Paul makes his appearance: now. "Accurate descriptions of Paul Bunâ€" yan are lacking, or at least they vary greatly. A consensus, however, gives his height as more tham that of the tallest tree; his that of a barn. His hands and feet were of* gigantic proportions, too, while his: voiceâ€"well, it is said that whem Paul Bunyar whisâ€" pered trees bent as thought im the <trongest breeze. Whem Paul shouted in anger, loggers in British Columbia bent in fear, even though Paul might be in Ottawa. Paul‘s travelling ability is also well knowm At eact» stride he covered miles. The truth of this stateâ€" ment is vouched for, peculiarly, by the fact that a series of deep depressions exist even toâ€"day along the heightâ€"ofâ€" land. These footsteps of Paul Bunyan are sunk in solid rock, which also atâ€" tests to the tremenmdous weight of this great man. PAUL BUNYAN SAID TO COME AT CHRISTMAS TME "But of all the interesting stories reâ€" garding the life of Paul Bunyan, few of them are quite so interesting as those of his enormous appetite. And you can still find many oldâ€"timers of the woods who admit, bashfully, that they helped cook the meals. "Paul‘s favourite restaurant was unâ€" like those of toâ€"day, in that it was in the great outdoors, far from habitation. As a matter of fact, Paul‘s restaurant was entirely too large to be enclosed. His soup bowl, the stories say, was so extraordinarily large that the cook was compelled to use a steel rowâ€"boat to reach its centre. There, cookie would use an oar in stirring the ingredients. For a light meal, Paul would consume, ‘tis said, aone whole ox, several sheep, and then eat several hundred doughâ€" nuts tor dessert. "Naturally, a man so large was capâ€" able of enormous toil. He dug out the Great Lake; he dredged the rivers leadâ€" ing to the sea; he uprooted, singly and by hand, entire forests; and he made the base cof the Rocky Mountains. "His latter feat was pernaps the most spectacular of his very spectacuiar carâ€" eor. Paul, according to the stories had hurried from the Ottawa valley to the Pacific coast. He established a logging camp far back in a huge forest, filled with trees so large that ‘"it took two men and a boy to look from top tp botâ€" tomâ€"the men locked as high as they could and the boy finished the job." These trees interfered somewhat with Paul‘s view of the ocean. Finally, he walked through the woods, gathering one cof the huge trees in each hand. With hardly an appreciable strain, he tore the trees out by the roo‘s and cast them from him. They dropped ide by side in a huge valley which exâ€" isted where the Rocky Mountains now raise their peaks to the coulds. Debris filled in.. Now Canada‘s great mounâ€" tain range is there for all to see."
