Steele One Son and Two Daugchters of Late Mrs. Stecle, of Perth, No ‘d@dont in Timmins. Attended â€" Funcral Last Week at Perth. Brief reference was made last week to the death at Perth of Mrs. John Steele, mother of Arthur W. Steele, Mrs. Jos. Hefferman and Miss Elsie Steele, of Timmins. Extended reference is made to the death of Mrs. Steele, in The Perth Courier, last week. Myrs. Steele was very highly regarded in Perth and her death was looked upon as a decided loss to the community. In referring to the death and funeral The Perth Courier last week says:â€" Steeleâ€"In the yiassing of Jennie Osborne, wife of Mr. John Steele, barâ€" ber, at the Perth Memorial hospital on Sunday night, March 29th, this comâ€" munity was once again reminded that "in the midst of life we are in death.". 1 Mrs. Steele was seized with a stroke paralysis at her home on Arthur street shortly after four o‘clock on Saturday afternoon, and was immediately rushed to the hospital in an ambulance, and without regaining consciousness the spark of life fled at eleven o‘clock on Sunday night. Only those who have experienced it can imagine the awful, shock and the dsep grief such a sudden takingâ€"away means to the sorrowing husband, family, relatives and close friends. . It was a shock that the whole community felt, and every heart goes out in kindest and most sincere symâ€" pathy to those who are most closely affiicted. The late Mrs. Steele was fiftyâ€"one years of age and was bormn in Newfoundland, daughter of the late Jacob Osborne and Mary A. Cooper, the family coming to Perth nearly fifty years ago. She was the last member of the family. Over thirtyâ€"three years ago she was married to Mr. John Steele, and they resided in Perth ever since and to them were born two daughters and four sons. Deceased was a loving and faithful wife and mother, and greatly respected and esteemed in the community and in full measure she was well worthy of the respect and esteem always shown for her. She was a deâ€" voted member of St. Paul‘s United Church, ana@ prominently identified in the work of the Ladies‘ Aid Society. Deceased is survived by her husband, four sons, Messrs Fred Steele and Clifâ€" ford J. Steele, at home; Frank Steele, of Toronto; Arthur W. Steele, of Timâ€" mins; two daughters, Mrs. Jos. (Violet) Hefferman and Miss Elsie Steele, both of Timmins, and one aunt, Mrs. Philip Steacy, of Perth. Hundreds visited the home to pay their last respécts to the ! deceased and offer sympathy to the | bereaved husband and family, and many gathered for the funeral which was held on Wednesday afternoon to the vault at Elmwood cemetery. The service at the home was conducted by )Re‘v. D. D. Eliott and Rev. Dr. Bunyan McLeod. The pallbearers were Messrs M. L. Lapoint, T. A. Rogers, Sylvester O‘Donnell, H. R. Gamble, Russell Coutts and N. E. Dodds., Among those from out of town attending the funeral were THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Mr. and Mrs. Jos. Hefferman, Miss Elsie Steele and Mr. A. W.

"Of course, one does not take such things on shore to sell, there being alâ€" ways plenty working about the ship to buy and they taken all the risks but then, as I say, the money is no good, either in or out of the country to strangers, with the exception that a few roubles help to pay admission to the ptilaces and other show places for which they make a charge of anything up to a half rouble, and also for the trains which are exceptionally cheap and can beat the United States for "The last voyage we were in Leninâ€" grad, formerly St. Petersburg. »It must have been a wonderful city at the time of the Czars and several seafaring men I have met, who were there in those days, bear this out. The city, however, is getting in a dilapidated condition now as there is neglect almost everyâ€" where that one looks,. We did quite bit of sightseeing visiting the palaces which particularly are kept up to norâ€" mal condition so far as the interiors are concerned. To describe the granâ€" deur of them requires a better pen than mine, so I will not attempt it. There are several. palaces, two together. One might be called a state palace and the smaller but more homely one was where the Czar and family lived and were kept prisoners for three months and eventually taken away to be done to death, goodness knows how and where. "We also visited the Cathedral where all the Czars but the last, of course, were buried. There is nothing elaborâ€" ate about their tombstones. We are at present at Archangel loading but don‘t at present know where we are going. "The conditions in this country are terrible but of what we have seen not so bad as painted. Whilst at Leninâ€" grad the only formalitiee we had to contend with were the usual customs, etc, who did not bother us in the least and then issued us a pass, which had to be shown at the dock gates, both goâ€" ing out and coming in, otherwise no one interfered with us in any way and we were there four weeks. Firstâ€"Hand Picture Russian Conditions In a recent issue of The Canada Lumâ€" berman letter is published from A English seaâ€"faring man relative to conâ€" ditions in Russia at the present time. The letter was written by the seaâ€"farâ€" ing man to his son in Toronto, this son being a wellâ€"known business man in Toronto. The letter gives firstâ€"hand information in regard to the sad conâ€" ditions in Russia toâ€"day. The Canada Lumberman publishes a part of the letâ€" ter as follows:â€" _ "We, like good many ships, have been chartered by the Russian governâ€" ment, who are sending a great quantity of wood out of the country. They aré making some mess of handling shipeâ€" "Money is practically of no value; you might have a pocket full of roubles but one cannot spend them as everyâ€" thing is on the ticket principle. Queues are formed at regular intervals at the shoy:; to buy the necessities of life and practically nothing can be purchased without the ticket, which, of course, the likes of us are not allowed. The value of the rouble to us is about the same as before the war viz.:â€"O9Râ€"60OK to the pound. However, seafarers don‘t think of changing English money. As much as 20 roubles can be got for an old coat that would not fetch 1â€"6 at home, anywhere up to 30R for an old "mac." underclothes, etc., pro rata. ping as ships are having as much as two months in port before they are loaded.

They, of course, have their ice breakers but the premiums on ice inâ€" surance are very and unless the Russians care to pay accordingly there will not be much doing. "This trade is all right in the summer time when it is daylight the full 24 hours (the land of the midnight sun) but very much the reverse in winter and almost ‘the opposite. Fortunately there is no ice at present and in fact it is quite mild as we have had southâ€" erly winds for days but a change is exâ€" pected at any time and I will not be sorry when we are out of it, which will not be for 10 or 12 days yet. "They have started loading cargo toâ€" day so we can still keer! to the 10 or 12 days. Unfortunately the weather has broken and we have a cover of snow. We shall be glad when we are out of it. There are some seventyâ€"two proâ€" ficiency badges that boys can obtain after they have earned their second and first class badges. A Scout, in order to obtain his Airman badge must: (1) Make a model of an aeroplane which will be judged for (a) design, (b) workmanship, and (c) performance. (2) Explain how the various forces work to pimoduce fiight in (a) gliders; (b) aeroplanes, and (c) dirgibles. (3) "Our hopes were dashed about getâ€" ting away and winter set in and we have therefore had a bad time this last two or three weeks. The temperature has been as low as 10 and 22 degrees F. of frost. I am unable to say what Archangel is like, as although we were there over six weeks, I never went ashore. "The type of men working at the timâ€" ber both on the ship and ashore are fine looking men for the most part, but riractically all political prisoners, whose outlook in life must be of the worst. The head bosses are only too pleased to get aboard ship to get a feed as, strange to say, ships have facilities for buying meat and vegetables that the people have not. Altogether, Russia is some rotten country, looking at it with as little prejudice as possible and there surely must be another uprising in the near future. "We have since had a rank passage to the Norgegian Fjords and have lost another 30 hours on this passage through bad weather. We have no deâ€" finite orders so far but will get them in Norway. We are absolutely sure it will b> either Amsterdam or Rotterdam as we have heavy logs and a 10 or 12â€"f0ot deck load; therefore, we know it is not an English port, as the limit port from November to May is three to four feet." Field Secretary to Visit Scouts Here Last week the Scouts met at their headquarters and then proceeded to their cabin where the evening‘s proâ€" gramme was carried out, There wasn‘t very much time for Scouting and we had to be back in town by nine o‘clock and hiking out there and back took some time. It was a very bright evenâ€" ing and all kinds of tracks were quite easily seen. Some time was spent in identifying some of these tracks. Games of scouting were payed and a supply of fire wood was collected. Next week we expect to hold our meeting on Tuesday, as Field Secretary Paddon will be with us on his annual tour of inspection. Mr. Paddon will be in town Monday and Tuesday, April 13th and 14th. During this time he will inspect the South Porcupine Troop as well as the Timmins Troop. The local troop has been growing quite nicely but our object is not large troop as much as it is a good troop of real Scouts. It would be far more pleasing to us to have a small troop) of ten boys who do their best to become proper Scouts and eventually good citizens, than to have a full troop of boys who merely get together once week to be sociable and play games. Scouting is not all play at first but as one gets into it, it becomes play alâ€" though it may louk like work to those not interested. "We were of the opinion that they would get us away before this as on this date (November 15th) the preâ€" miums for ice increase considerably. That, however, does not seem to conâ€" cern the Soviet authorities as money to waste seems to them no object. Deâ€" tention to ships hired on charter by the month does not appear to matter.

How many of you have en any notice of clouds in order to foreâ€" tell approaching rains? Scouts are exâ€" pected to know something of cloud forâ€" mations. The lowest clouds are the lowâ€"lying stratus clouds or fogs formed by the cooling of air moisture through contact with the earth or with water. These are sometimes seen lying over lakes and streams, exprcially in the late summer. Although often seen durâ€" ing the days, the stratus is called the "cloud of night," as commonly it forms about sunset, grows denser during the night and is dissipated by the morning isun. The term, stratus, is broadly apâ€" plied to continuous clouds at any ’height; arranged in horizonal layers or 'sheets. The lowâ€"lying stratus clouds in reality are nothing more than high fogs. Those somewhat higher altitude are spoken of as stratulâ€"cumulus. From about 6,000 to 18,000 feet altitude they are described as altoâ€"stratus and at very high altitude, up to 27,000 feet as cirroâ€"stratus. Currus clouds are the highest of all, sometimes attaining an altitude of ten miles. They are usually made up of fine white threadâ€"like or band forms, sometimes having the appearance of hair or feathers, and are probably comâ€" posed of minute particles of snow cryâ€" stals sustained on rising or moving air currents. The movements of the cirrus clouds cften differ in direction from the surface winds and are indicative of coming changes of weather. In their more massed forms they are spoken of as cirroâ€"stratus and it is when this cloud is present that halos are often seen. Cumulus clouds are formed in balls or rounded masses through the rapid ascension and cooling of warm, moist air. These Aare sometimes called the "clouds of the day," because the conâ€" ditions necessary for their formation are more commonly present in the day time. For the same reason they may also be called the clouds of summer. When spread out in a layer or in layers, forming an almost centinuous mass, they are referred to as cumuloâ€"stratus. Above the cumulus are the altoâ€"cumuâ€" lus clouds, extending to an altitude of about 12,000 feet. Like the altoâ€"straâ€" tus the altoâ€"cumulus clouds are comâ€" posed of water particles, probably often below the freezing pl>int. *, .. ve*. # + nonaotast nataet en esnt en nat esnt en es es anran esn en rae h o n n n n n n n o h n c P o n ce m i n n n m n P c s t w U w /‘ w * w4 * . .* .““ # %° "® #* # # *# # # *4 # ..
