It is a good idea to refuse to sign or pay any attention to any petitions or anything else these days unless those taking them around are known to be good citizens and personally responsâ€" ible and respectable. Read over anyâ€" thing you may be asked to sign and then do not sign unless you are personâ€" ally acquainted with those circulating the petition or whatâ€"not. If any atâ€" tempt should be made to use bullyâ€" ragging tactics or threats, such as are said to have occurred in one recent case of a pretended petition, just send for the police. as governments of the provinces and Dominion undertake public works so as to provide employment and thus overâ€" come the present conditions. These people generally, however, are strongly against the evils of communism and do not wish to show any sympathy with the "Reds" at all. As for a minimum wage of $25.00 per week, working or idle, the only fault in theory that many would find with that is the idea that it might be more. However, who would pay it and where would it come from. In this country everything the governâ€" ment pays comes from the people. Even the Russians have been unable to provide a minimum wage of half that amount for everybody.

Los Angeles Times:â€"Twentyâ€"five pr cent. of the schoolâ€"children in Los Angeles had never seen a calf until specimens of these animals were reâ€" cently "toured" round the schools. "No. 2 cut is located about 30‘ north bf No. 1 cut. It is over 25‘ across the dike, T deep, and 55 wide. Picked samâ€" ples from this cut also ran high, while a set of channel sammes gave from $3.14 to $5.20 in gold per ton. "While these values are not too high, the fac: that they are obtained on surface, while there is evidence of large tonnage on the dike, would lead one to believe that, if sufficient finances are provided for this very promising deâ€" posit, it should make a mine, and a real green field in McArthur township for the business men of Timmins and viâ€" cinity." "The dimensions of No. 1 cut are 16‘ across the dike, 10‘ deep, and 5° wide. Picked samples from this cut ran as high as $29.50 per ton in gold, and a set of channel samples ran from $4.14 o $7.60. ‘The work done on the dike consists of cpen cuts at right angles to the strike, though neither wall has been intercepted, for lack of time and finâ€" ances. The cuts are made deep enough to remove all the weathered and disinâ€" tegrated material and oxidations, so as to permit ol Letter sampling. Up to the pisesent time, there are two rock cuts completed and another one is in progress. "The gangue and ore minerals are nearly alike in size, and are evenly disâ€" seminated through the fractures and pores of the rock. The gangue minerâ€" als consist chiefly of quartz and feldâ€" spars, with small amounts of other minerals common to plutonic rocks. The metallic minerals are sulphide, pyrite, galena, and chalcopyrite, the two first named being abundant, as the weathered joints extending deep below the surface and the excessive oxidation give ample proof. Nâ€"S, about 30 degrees east of north, and, at the point where values are obâ€" tained, the porpthyry shows more clearâ€" ly its fractures and the folds of the concave and convex halves of anticline and sincline, also the diagonal fractâ€" tures which indicate that this dike has been underâ€"great stresses which cccurâ€" red at the same period and‘ acted at right angles to each cther. "On the whole, it is apparent that this dike, as is characteristic of the whole district, has been subjected to many geological disturbances. It is alâ€" so of good width and length. It runs "The third factor, values, is to be credited in part to the first factor, which provided the receptacle for the gold solutions, and also to the wonderâ€" ful water that, with the aid of minor agencies, is capable of planting and transr/anting any of all the seventyâ€" three elements of the earth, which waâ€" ter brought the gold into the dike in a state of solution, and met with a favâ€" curable reagent which precipitated or deposited the gold in the dike. "The second factor, tonnage, also apâ€" pears to be favourable in this dike, and is to be credited to the favourable phyâ€" sical conditions of the first factor whose actions affected a considerably large area of rock and provided for large tonnage. "‘These processes are repeated until the spaces in the rock are filled, and the once vacant fractures, cracks, and pores become regular, or irregular minâ€" eral deposits, veins, or dikes, in differâ€" ing degrees according to their physical forms. This explanation covers roughâ€" ly the first favourable factor of this dike, In brief, structural geoiogy means the position and arrangement of the material composing the dike, or the aggregation and relation of pi:sition as determined by physical conditions. which is one of the first and fundaâ€" men‘al factors in the production of minerals, just as the tilled fertile soil is in the pwoduction of grain. The mechanically tilled soil needs plowing, seeding, cultivating and favourable climatic conditions until the reaping is done; and the rock, also, needs furâ€" ther care which it receives from its own natural actions, termed stress ~ahe structural geology of the dike appears to have occurred under favourâ€" able chemical and physical conditions, McArthur and Bartlett townships, I wish to give a more detailed description of Mr. Joe Theriagult‘s discovery in Mcâ€" Arthur township.

THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO es on e ie "The arrival of steel at James Bay will provide an opportunity for expanâ€" sion and development of a great tribuâ€" tary territory and will allow easy exâ€" ploration of the great streams that lead back into the centre of Ontario‘s ihinterland. This applies not only to the Ontario side of James and Hudâ€" son‘s Bays, but also to the Quebec side. Mr. McCrea emphasized the fact that the James Bay area will provide a new stamping ground for the adventurer, the tourist and explorer, most of the area to be tapped being still in its primeval condition. He also recalled that it was the building of railways that uncovered the great â€" mineral wealth ‘of the Sudbury and Cobalt disâ€" tricts, besides making possible the deâ€" velopment of the Kirkland Lake and Porcupine gold camps. "There are those who confidently expect that the . The Minister of Mines referred enâ€" thusiastically to the outlook for the new extension. "Completion of this line will afford transportation faciliâ€" ties for a lot of nonâ€"metallic developâ€" ments in that area," he said. "These include fire clays of the first quality, lignite of the Onakawana field as fuel for a portion of Northern Ontario, toâ€" gether with the gypsum deposits which are found in large quantites. S TW WOR tidewater. Accompanying Mr. McCrea were his daughter, Miss Helen McCrea and Miss Mary Piel, of New York City. Points of interest at which stops were made included the Porcupine district, the‘ power development at Abitibi Canyon,. the Onakawana lignite field, the Moosel River crossing of the T. N. O. rail-l way, and the proposed new terminus for the line at Moose Harbour. The Cobalt and Temagami areas were also visited. I Completion of the new James Bay extension of the Temiskaming and Northern Ontario Railway will prove very important development for the province at large, Hon. Chas, McCrea told The Sudbury Star last week on his return from a week spent on a trip of inspection of the entire T. N. O. country from North Bay to 'Openmg of Moose Harbour Next Year Hon. Chas.

We have adopted the Raybestos Seven Point Brake Service plan, and can absolutely guarantee to give you service and satisfaction in seeing your brakes are in perfect condition. ILL they hold in that emergency which every car driver meets some time every season? Will they stand that sudden clamping on, so necessary if an accident is to be avoided? Be careful! Be preâ€" pared! Have your brakes examined frequently do not drive with imperfect brakes good brakes are the finest kind of accidentinsurance. Get yours thoroughly examined At Timmins, where the party visited on Tuesday, several of the big mines were visited and the new mill at Mcâ€" on there. Later, the party visited the great power development work at the Abitibi Canyon. There the construcâ€" tion work is goin on on a large scaile, It was one of the most interesting power developments he had ever seen, Mr. McCrea stated, and would play a big part in the development of the north. On the return trip, Mr. McCrea visitâ€" ed the lignite field on the Onakawana river and inspected the shaft that has been sunk into the seam and other exploration work that was being carried The future townsite of Moose Harâ€" bour is a delightful spot, Mr. McCrea said, and, while not yet built on, would undoubtedly become a very important place within a short time of the comâ€" pletion of the T.

RAYBESTOS BRAKE SERVICE IS RESPONSIBILITY St. Mary‘s Journalâ€"Argusâ€"Merchants Jeverywhere are finding these times that to keep their sales up is a probâ€" lem that challenges their best energy and resourcefulness. And yet it is posâ€" sible for keen merchandisers to appeal for business on too narrow a basis. For instance a merchant may be chasâ€" ing the elusive dollars so hard that he neglects to take an interest in municipal affairs. He may be so preâ€" occupied with his selfish interests that he fails to lend a hand in worthy community enterprises. He may be so wrapped up in the selling of goods as to overlook the fact that the town as well as his store should be made atâ€" tractive to the people of the surâ€" rounding district. He may not realize that unless the shoppers of the nearâ€" by country find the town interesting and attractive and unless they take a friendly interest in its welfare they are not going to be drawn ‘particularly to that town. And if they don‘t come to that town the merchant‘s chances of selling his goods are nil. The live merchant will show more interest in his customer than merely getting his | money. | Canada has always possessed advenâ€" turous sons, and the end of steel at salt water will be but an advanced post for greater exploration of Ontario‘s great hinterland. The future alone will show the great wealth that is hidâ€" den now in the north, said Mr McCrea. Intyre was inspected.
