Some people have to be slapped before they realize this. Announcement is made by the St. John Ambulance Brigade, Timmins Division, of ancther huge whist drive to be held in the Hollinger Recreaton hall on Monday, April 20th, commencâ€" ing at 8 p.m. prompt. !_ _ Tickets for this event may be secured at any time now from any member of the Timmins St. John Ambulance Briâ€" TORONTO BOARD OF TRADE TO VISIT MOOSE FACTORY "We need your help toâ€"day; toâ€"morâ€" row you may need ours," is the catchâ€" line on the cards announcing the big whist drive. This suggestion might be made much stronger, for as a matter of fact for some years past the Ambulance Brigade has been giving its help to the of Timmins and asking very litâ€" tle in return. Of course, it is necessary to have funds to carry on the work of the Ambulance Brigade, and this money is raised by the occasional dance or whist drive, or other similar plan. In this connection it should be said that these events are all worth more than the admission fee for their own sakes, so in these cases the public is getting double valueâ€"having a firstâ€"class good time at the event, and at the same time helping the St. John Ambulance Briâ€" gade.

Departmental Tests Commence, June 15 St. Mary‘s Jownalâ€"Argus:â€"Captain Robert Dollar, the millionaire shipping magnate who started his career as a barefoot boy in the Muskoka lumber camps has just signalized his 87th birthâ€" day by advising youths to work hard, scave money, avoid liquor and tobacco, mairry young and then try to get along with the chosen wife. Barrie Examiner:â€"A San Francisco man has married three grass widows. He‘s prcbably a Toronto Mail and Empire:â€"Canada is to have the privilege for five months this year of entertaining 12 headmisâ€" tresses of Englisn and Scottish schools. Their aim in coming here is to acquire a personal knowledge of Canadian uniâ€" versities and to investigate the posâ€" sibilities of girls finishing their educaâ€" tion in this country after a secondary course at home. Thus, another Emâ€" pire link will Hkely be forged. to. A despatch last week from Sudbury in referring to the matter says:â€"*"The Pot of Gold at the End of the Rainbow," perhaps $25,000 cold cash may be a surety for Reino Jackalla, of Copper Cliff, who was advised on Thursday that he held a ticket on "Sawgold" a horse in the Provincial Assistance Sweepstakes, incorporated with the Naâ€" tional, which was run on March 27. The catch is that Jackalla cannot find his ticket which he carefully put away in a book two weeks ago. Jackalla was advised that he would have to produce his ticket, but it is considered likely ' that his own written statement and those of two witnesses who saw him buy the ticket may be considered sufficient eviâ€" denc> to allow him to cash in on his good fortune. At any rate, Jackalla is optimistic about, it and has already made arrangements for the purchase of a car. Jackalla is 24 years old, married and was born and educated in Copper Cliff. He resides with his parents in Copper Cliff. Until a few months ago he was employed at the International Nickel Company smelter, where he reâ€" ceived 55 cents an hour. He paid $1| for the lucky ticket which he purchasâ€" ed in Karl Lehtour‘s store from E. Winâ€" nerstrom, clerk in the King Edward hotel. Lorne Bucknan, clerk at Lehâ€" tour‘s store, also bought a ticket at the ‘ same time. He and Verner Prishamen, | who was aiso present, have signed ; statements to the effect that Jackalla was the purchaser of the ticket. Deâ€" finite information as to if and when Jackalla will receive the money, are un\ obtainable but it is stated that the j amount is $25,000. There were reports current a week or two ago that Jim Davis, formerly of Timmins, but now of Kirkland Lake, had won $5,000.00 in the Irish Sweeyrâ€" <takes, and that one of the T. N. O. trainmen had had similar good luck. Then comes the story from Sudbury that Reino Jackala, of Copper Cliff, had been the winner of $25,000.00 in one of the features of the sweepstakes referred some form or cther and the time is not far distant when some governmentâ€" controlled system of taking a chance will be devised to replace the bootlegâ€" gers of the gambling world who have it all their own way today. For instance if a properly organized publicly conâ€" trolled system of periodical drawings would not only ensure the people who play a fair deal but would also provide enough money to pay the Old Age Penâ€" sions of Canada why not cast cant and hyplocrisy aside and go to it." SAID TO HAVE WON $25,000 IN NATIONAL SWEEPSTAKES v,.0,21L CI TIhné Tulllity of trying to stop gambling in some shape or form. Nearly four millions of tickets were sold all over the civilized world and as twonâ€" tyâ€"five per cent. of the receipts go to the support of the Irish hospitals they will surely net a neat sum. While few will have sympathy with the carrying on of the round of small lotteries, handled by individuals, which have sprung up @all over in recent years, yet we believe few sane people would obâ€" ject to ‘an institution carried on as is the Irish Sweep in which everyon» who buys a ticket is guaranteed a fair, square chance of winning. This counâ€" try is today honeycombed with gamblâ€" ing devices in active opsration. From th2 mutuel machine at the Woodbine to the game of fanâ€"tan in the back Oof a Chinese laundry may be a far cry, but throughout it all human nature is the same. An enormous percentage of cur people gamble in H The Irish Sweepstakes recently creatâ€" ed so much discussion of the lottery idea that attention has been drawn more than usual to the popularity of the game cof chance. In this country there is a regular procession of tickets fcor draws, legal and not so legal. It is argued that there would not be anybody up in this country unless they willing to "take a chance," and that all busiâ€" ness and even life itself in this land is so based on chance and trusting to foriune that practically everybody has a large proportion of the idea of trustâ€" inz to luck or taking a chance in their Proposes Form of State Lottery as Necessary THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, I__TALK/ NG PICTURES A A dividena of on the outstanding Capital Stock of the Compiiny has been declared payable on the 22nd day of April, 1931, on which date cheques will be mailed to shareholders of record at the close of business on the 8th day of April, 1931.
