She wants to come up to he north to camp and someone has told her that it is possible to stake a claim on lake, with a li:tle bit of the shore, so that in this way a camping site can be readily and cheaply acquired. She is a little bit in doubt, however, as to the method of staking a water claim and wan:s some information. Although this inquiry properly belongs to the "Advice to the lovelorn" editor, an atâ€". tempt will be made to supply an answer. here. "First find your lake, with a bit oi beach for your cabin. Put up the caâ€" bin, go in for a swim, being careful not to forget to come out again. Then cut four stakes, four inches square at! the top and as long as necessary. Two of these posts can be sunk on the main landâ€"that‘s easy. It is the two water posts that will give some trouble. The idea is to swim out, dive to the bottom, measure the derth, cut your poss long enough so that it will show above waâ€" ter, then paddle out and drive it down. If there is a mud botiom you are in luck; if it is rock you are required to. put down a diamond drill hole and paint your license number on the openâ€" ing and save the core for someone who hasn‘t got any apple. "Of course you could come up in the winter and stake on the ice but the difficulty is that you would require to repeat this opmration each year, as your stakes would disappear in the "breakâ€"up." Also the winter is not the best time for summer camping. "The regulations require that you burn your brush and pick up the chips along the staking line and this is phrâ€" ticularly hard to do on a water Il0t, as the chips get so wet. It is considered good practice also to save the sludge from the diamond dGrill hole, as eviâ€" dence. "Finally, we must sayâ€"and we should have said this firstâ€"that it is against the regulations of the Department of Mines to stake a water lot for camping purposes. However, come on up anyâ€" how. We have thousands of lakes and millions of acres of good camping ground and you will gei a welcome, with mighty little red tape tied around Simcos Reformer:â€"With the advent of spring, one can at dleast find relief from the worry and stress of business life in gardening and home beautificaâ€" tion. Simcoe is fortunate in having so many citizens who take deep pride in their lawns and flower gardens, which after all form the basis for an attracâ€" tive and wellâ€"ordered town. The Horâ€" ticultural Society has done much to promote interest along this line and it is hoped that this organization may continue its good work during the forthcoming season. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO LATE ALEXANDER BRUNETTE HAD RELATIVES IN TIMMINS A despatch last week from Maniwaki under date of May 12th, said:â€"*"Many friends and relatives attended the fuâ€" neral of Alexander Brunette which was held on Sunday afternoon from his late residence at St. Mamille d‘Aumond to St. Famille Church where office for the dead was chanted by Rev. Father Gaucher with interment in the Roman Catholic cemetery at St. Famille. A requiem high miss was chanted on Monday morning by Father Gaucher. Mr. Brenuette had been a resident of this district all his life, where he was well known as a successful farmer. He died at the Maniwaki hospital last Friâ€" day after an illness of about six weeks. Born in Maniwaki, a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Hyacinthe Brunetts, he was married 37 years ago, and took up residence at St. Famillse d‘Aumond, where he resided since. His wife, Marâ€" garet Fogarty, of Bouchette, Que., preâ€" deceased him 15 years ago. Three sons, Emile of Timmins; Hubert and Howard, of St. Famille d‘Aumond, survive, as well as seven daughters Mrs. P. Beauseâ€" jour; Mrs. P. Burke and Miss Edith Brunette, of Hull; Mrs. Romeo Desâ€" roches, Eastview; Mrs. William St. Amour, Maniwaki and Mrs. Eloi Robiâ€" taille and Mrs. Loranger Robitaille, of Val Emard, Que.; three half sisters Mrs. J. B. Emard and Mrs. Ambroise ’ Roy, of Timmins, and Mrs. Leo Guy, of ' Val Emard, Que.; one brother, Thomas, and five half brothers, Leo. Odilon, Henri, Joseph and Remi, of St. Famille d‘Aumond, all of whom acted as pallâ€" bearers and his stepâ€"mother, Mrs. Hyaâ€" cinthe Brunette. Included in the spiriâ€" tual and floral offerings received were tributes from Sparksâ€"Harrison, Ltd., Hull; Miss Viola Roy, Timmins, Ont.; Mrs. Dagenais, Timmins, Ont.; Mr. and Mrs. P. Burke, Hull; Emile Brunette. Timmins, and Mrs. H. Burke, Hull." The wind is tempered to the shorn lamb, and where the bull is you w111| find green grass. Squirrels can nearly always find nuts in this world. The‘ latest is that a climate supposed to be unsuited for monkeys starts to grow peanuts when the monkeys take a note to stick around. Recently Kirkland Lake has been the scene of gibberings by a bunch of red monkeys, and now The Northern News announces that peanuts are grow mg in Kirkland Lake. "Ain‘t nature grand?" The Northern News says last week:â€" "While Virginia and Kirkland Lake are hardly in the same degree of latiâ€" tude, it does not mean that this Northâ€" ern town is outside of the tropical zone entirely. Shooting its green stalks ten inches into the air, a healthy peanut plant is on exhibition in the Kirkland Pharmacy Store. The kernels of three raw peanuts were planted three months ago and the growth has been fairly rapid until now little yellow blossoms appear near the roots. Should peanut raising become general in this part of the country it would mean ancther deâ€" crease in Canada‘s imports."

London Evening Standard:â€"Bad writing is often supposed to be a sign of some sort of distinction, whether inâ€" tellectual or social. There are people who could write very much better with little, if any, more trouble, but who make not the least effort to do so. Few, John Muskrat, who escaped from the Burwash Industrial Farm on Thursday, May 7, and was on FPriday near the Massey Creek bridge on the CNR., was sentenrnced to two years in Kingston penitentiary by Magistrate McKessock last week. The 17â€"yearâ€"old lad told the magistrate that he did not want to go back to Burwash and if he did he would try to escape again. He said he would like to be sent to Kingâ€" REALISM DISPLAYED IN MODERN SCHOOL EDUCATION (From The Sudbury Star) The modern schools are cause of porpeiual wonder to us In a natural history course at Cincinnati a licn was brought into the school room, and the children thus engabled to obâ€" serve closely its appearance, habits, and modes of action. The vividness and dramatic quality of the lesson was heightened when the lion, entering into the spirit of the occasion, broke loose and in a rtractical demonstration atâ€" tacked child. In cur day we were never attacked by a lion in a school room. We read about lions , and we saw cof lions that was all. There was one picture of Livingstone, flat in the jungle with a lion standing over him, one paw on his breast, and making faces at a rifleâ€" man who was firing from a few yards‘ distance. That was the best the schools had to offer in them simple old days! We didn‘t realize our poverty. As for being attacked, ourselves, by a lion in the schsol rsom, we never even dreamed of it. And so, naturally there is a great dsal that we don‘t know about lions to this day. BARRY‘S BAY MOURNS THE DEATH OF ROBERT PICH IVEN TWOâ€"YEAR TERM FOR ESCAPING FROM BURWASH A courle of weeks ago The Advance had the sad duty of chronicling the death of Robert Pich at the Hollinger mine, Timmins, the death resulting from the fall of some rock. The name given to the authorities here was "Pyck", but this apparently is not the correct spelling or the one used in the home district of the dead man. A desâ€" patch from Barry‘s Bay appearing in The Standardâ€"Observer last week said: On. 6 Muskrat was serving a term for reakingz, entering and theft imposed t Parry Sound for an offens> comâ€" itted at Carrington. He was workâ€" ig in a field where a gang of men ere seeding when he aparently esâ€" aped by slowly leaving the premises hile the guards were not watching. "Citizens of Barry‘s Bay were shocked when they learned that Robert Pich, well known resident of that village, had beon instantly killed by falling rock at the Hollinger mine, Timmins, on Wedâ€" nesday of last week. The victim of the accident was a son of Mr. and Mrs. John Pich and was born at B ~y‘s Bay 26 yvears ago. He was a you..~ man of gocod character and was highly regardâ€" ed by all who knew him. The body arrived here last Friday and was conâ€" veyed to the home of his parents, where it remained until Sa:urday morning, when the funeral was held to St. Hedâ€" wis‘s church, with burial in the adâ€" joining cemetery. Funeral mass was sung by Rev. Kulas, after which an imâ€" pressive sermon was pireached by Rev. P. PBiemacki. Surviving are the perâ€" ents, two bro:hers, August and Michael, and five sisters, Mrs. J. Blank, Wilno; Mrs. J. Derien, Pembroke; Mrs. F. Rekoski, and Misses Elizabeth and Theresa, Barry‘s Bay, all of whom have the sympathy of the entire community." MOON AFFECTS RADIO SAYS PERKIN® OBSERVATORY DON stars (stage industry in casion been receptivity. radio recept wWith the moon overhead there apâ€" pears to be a marked depression in the mystericus layer of ironized gas surâ€" rounding the earth, which scientists called the Kennellyâ€"Heaviside layer. It has long been known that the periods of sun spots produce an inâ€" crease in this layer which makes it come nearer the earth with a subseâ€" quent detriment to radio reception. A pissible explanation for the obâ€" served effect of the mson may be that the moon is at a different electrical potential from that of the earth. If the moon were negative with respect to the earth it would repel to some extent the negatively charged layer about the earth overlying the path between the brsadcasting and receiving stations. Plans to extend the observations are under way by coâ€"operating with siaâ€" tions in the Orient for transâ€"Pacific transmission. "Perhaps the most nc:able ccntributions of radi> to science," said Dr. Stetson, "will be the part which it will Fay in blazing new trails in the fields of cosmic physics."
