Yet this area is touted as the ideal vacation territory for half the continent, and the ideal rouling for the transâ€"Canada highway!" Mr. and Mrs. T. M. White and little son, Buddy, motored up from Kirkland Lake on Saturday, Mr. White returning to kirkland Lake on Sunday evening, and Mrs. White and son remaining for couple of weeks‘ holiday with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. A. Macdonald. The Northern Tribune, of Kapuskasâ€" ing, last week had the following ediâ€" torial comment:â€""A mixiure of road dust and fog on roads around the Soo creates difficult and dangerous driving The big motor crusade from ‘the North to Toronto left here on Sept. 5th and reached Toronto the following day, Sept. 6th. This trip was generally conâ€" sidered as signalling the formal openâ€" ing of the Fergusor highway. The crusade was completed wi:thout any serious mishap, though the highway at that time was certainly far from the condition in which it is toâ€"day. LOOKS LIKE A BAD PLACE FOR TRANSâ€"CANADA ROAD at many places along the road for rest and recreation their time was not kept. The first motor car to make the trip from this part of the North Land was a car from Iroquois Falls. This trip was made on Aug. 2nd, 1927. In the car were:â€"Fritz Anson and Alec M. Dewar, of Iroquois Falls; A. F. Kenning, MP. P. for South Cochrane; A. V. Waters, M.P.P. for North Cochrane; and Harry Duff, of the Northern Development Deâ€" partment. The trip was made in 17 hours, 51 minutes, which was unusualâ€" ly good time for the condition the road was in. ; Some young men from Weston, Onâ€" tario, were the first to make the trip from Toronto to Timmins. They reachâ€" ed here on Aug. 20th. As they stopped mins and district and special Tates could \kave been secured from the railways if ‘a material number had been ready to take in the trip. The Advance tried ‘to drum up a crowd from here so as to |be able to have reduced rate apply tbut the weather and other conditions | 1 }made the plan impractical. There were quite a number from this who went up by car and a number traâ€" velled there by the railway, and it was intended to make special effort this year to secure special reduced railway rates and to have a large reptesen:ation from this area. This year, however, The Advance did not know the date of the picnic until it was too late to take. | effective action. The Advance believes, that it would pay the setilers hereabouts to take the time and the |money required to make this trip. The iExperimental Farm at Kapuskazing is well worth seeing for itself alonel Setâ€" j Jlers from here would be sure to feel ‘that they had more than secured their money‘s, worth. In addition to the benefit of a visit to the Experimental Farm there will be sporis, addresses and |other features for the day. The Northern Ontario Setitlers‘ Asâ€" lscciaticn is also planning to have a {banquet on the same occasion with :ome prominent sprakers present for ‘he occasion. Questions of interest to the settlers will be discussed. There will be special rates on the Canadian National Railways for the: eveut and a special train will ‘be run from Cochrane, leaving that town at 7 am. There will not be a special train on the T. N. O. and the regular rates | on this line will prevail. | This month is the fourth anniversary of the cpening of the Ferguson highway from this part of the North to traffic for the South. To decide an argument The Advance was asked to give <he date of the opsning of the highway and in verifying the information from the fyles of the some interesting inâ€" forma:ion was brought back to notice. It was shown that the Ferguson highâ€" way was completed and opened for traâ€" ffic in 1927, though several citizens casâ€" ually asked the question as to when the highway was opened for traffic replied that they though it was 1924, 1925 or 1926. As noted before, however, it was in 1927. First Car Made ths Trip to Toronto from Iroquois Falls on Aug. 2nd. Crusade from the North on Sept, 5th.

As modern as her husband, and speaking as. excellent English, as | indeed do all sixteen members of their suite, Her Majesty seems to enjoy every moment of her stay in Canada. |\ â€"_It is astonishing how interested | the party are in Canadian history, Announcement is made elsewhere in this issue to the effect that the Goldâ€" fields Garage and Service Station at No. 6 First avenue, Schumacher, is now under new management and an unusuâ€" ally wide service is offered the public, with experts in each line, and service and accommodation specially featured.

In that fact lies the explanation of the exceedingly interesting statement he issued to the people of Canada upon his arrival at Quebec. It was as follows: "In landing upon this continâ€" ent in British Columbia last April I expressed the hope that I might have an opportunity of seeing more of this great and growinz member of the British Commonwealth of Nations. That hope is about to be realized. We shall remain for a time hero in ‘Old Canada‘ where the sturdy characteristics of French and British forbears have blended in a culture as admirable as it is After meeting offiâ€" ci~‘s of the Government, and visitingzg the Capital of the Doâ€" mirion, we shall travel west through Canada, remaining for 1 time in the Canadian Rockies bafore embarking at Vancouver. T !ask forward to the opportunâ€" itv of secing at closer range the necple and the institutions of this nation wkose vigor and are so hapoily Noranda‘s production this year is running at the rate of abou: 60,000,000 pounds per annum. This will be parâ€" tially offset, however, by a ptroduction of upward of $6,000,000 in gold as against $2,450,000 in 1930. There will also be no development charge this year for prior periods which amounted to $469,000 in 1930 and there will be special income, not shown last year, from Noranda‘s investment in Canada Wire and Cable Company and the Canâ€" adian Copper Refiners. Engineering and Mining Journal, in a recent estimate of the cost per nound of producing copper for 19 different companies in North and Sou:th America, showed Noranda to have the lowest cost of all. This estimate was based on production in 1930 and gave Norâ€" anda a cost of 7.41 cents per pound inâ€" cluding a heavy writeâ€"off Hfor prior deâ€" velopment. The estimate was taken on the round figure production of 75,000,â€" 000 pounds of copper whereas Noranda‘s output actually was 76,142,000 posunds last year which would cut the per pound cost still lower, Financial Counsel states. NORANDA‘s COSTS IN COPPER PRODUCTION THE LOWEST Te Under the Robinson Treaty the Inâ€" dians concerned may, it is understood, take game as long as the sun shines and the grass grows and the water flows. Officialdom claims that the redâ€" man‘s rights are noi clearly defined, and thas; unless they are soon restrictâ€" ed the {ndlan will go down in history not as a conservationist, but as a wild life dest:ructionist, ranking second only to the wolf. The Black Committee left on an exâ€" tended tour of Northwestern Ontario. Later in the month they will cover the Transcontinental country, paying parâ€" ticular attention there to alleged Inâ€" dian depredations against the mooase. The majority of thcse present were inclined to favour, it is said, some arâ€" rangement under which the Indians would, if possible, sacrifice their old treaty privileges for new privileges in a fixed and stated hunting and trapâ€" ping area to be located north of the line of the Transcontinental Raillway. Strong criticism of Indian slaugh:er of wild life is said to have been voiced by one official, he citing one instance in which three Indians, in a period of three days, took 500 beaver from a comâ€" paratively small area, and then sold most of the hides to a fAyâ€"byâ€"night fur buyer for half the money they were actually worth. No statement was issued to the press fcllowing the conference, but it is learnâ€" ed tha; one proposal to submit to the Privy Council a test case of an Inâ€" dian‘s conviction under the Game and Fisheries Act was frowned down, on the ground that such action had proved very little in the past as to the justice or injustice of the Robinson Treaty. First move of the Ontario Departâ€" ment of Game and Fisheries to find a solution to the alleged wanton destrucâ€" tion by Indians, year in and year out, of the wild game of this Province was riade at the Parliament Buildings, when the special Game Inquiry Committee headed by Hon. William D. Black conâ€" ferred for several hours with officials of the Dominion Department of Indian Affairs, no: only in regard to the 80â€" yearâ€"old Robinson Treaty, under which Indians enjoy certain hunting and fishâ€" ing rights unknown to the white man, but in respect of remedies that may be applied in the event of the authority of the ancient treaty ever being set aside. great obstacle to wild life conservaâ€" ion. How best to remove the obstacle .s a matter which will be left to a seâ€" cond conference of the Provincial and Federal officials, this parley to be held later in the yvear at O :tawa. Evidence was submitted by T. R. L. MacIinnes, Acting Secretary of the Inâ€" dian Affairs DPepartment; by Dr. E. L. Stone, Director of Medical Services in that department; and by F. B. Matâ€" thews and Frank McCarthy, counsel for the Hudson‘s Bay Company. The conviction was general at the conference that the Indian has become Indians Accused of Slaughtering Game Mill tonnage in July averaged around 600 tons daily with recoveries about the same as previous months. Costs are likely to show a slight increase for the period, due to the addition of another 7,000 tons to broken ore reserves. Stopes are full and the mine is well ahead of ‘he mill, the president stated. The company also is carrying on some construction work at this time, he said. A schoolhouse is being built and wiln be ready for the fall term. The new assay office has been completed and some additions have been made to the housing accommodation for employees. A total of 179 men were on the mine‘s payroll during July. The schedule of repayments on the Cherry loan is being carried out promâ€" ptly, Mr. Birks concluded.

Production during July of $77,954 in gold was substantially the same as that for June when a record month was established by the mine. "No doubt we would have made anâ€" other record last month except for the fact a defective circuit burnt out on the 27th, causing a serious tieâ€"up of the entire plant," Mr. Birks remarked.
