H. Weeks. for several terms mayor of Englehart. and prominent in the North for many“‘years on account of his pub- lic-spirited activity in board of trade, associated boards of trade and other public matters. was a visitor to Tim- mins last week coming here with John- ny Walker and his party of noted swimmers. The swimmers had been at Englehart at the fine new Geo. W; Lee swimming tank there. and like most people they liked “Billy" Weeks so well that they induced him to come north with them for the trip by motor. He went with them to Cochrane and so the party will have no excuse it they do not know all about the North. for he wouldbesuretotryhisbesttoinstil in the members of the party the same enthusiasm and regard for the North that he holds himself.

MAYOR OF ENGLEHART AT TIMMINS WITH SW'IMMERS It was reported late Tuesday even- ing that the body of a man had been found in the river in the vicinity where Mr. Christopher Pimess disappeared on September lst. Provincial Oflicer Craik and Mr. Pimess' two sons left this morning to identify the body, in case it was that of the missing man. So far no word has been received from them as it meant a. trip of some dis- tance into the marsh land to the place where the body has been reported found by Indians.

Cars were stretched out in all directions and people were clus- tered at every possible vantage point There were crowds perched on the gir- ders of the bridge, more on tsp of the boathouses nearby and even the expen- sive tops of some of the Clouthier boats were used to stand upon, as well as the tops of parked cars. One boathouse roof gave way with the weight of the people crowded on it. In the excite- ment of the occasion one young man dressed in his Sunday best fell from the girders of the bridge to the water below, some seventy or seventy-five feet. He was promptly rescued from the water, but was found to be uninjured, though he was ill for some time from the effects of the shock and the strik- ing of the water on his stomach.

Last week The Advance mentioned that for a considerable time St. Mary's hospital has been kindly giving food to transients who are hungry‘and pen- niless, and that so many.have been taking advantage of this kindness that it was necessary to check up on the ap- plicants for help so as to avoid impos- ture and fraud by some. Accordingly. the town gave the services of its relief officer to make a ch'éck-up on all ap- plying for food at the hospital. In referring to the matter last week The Advance had the impression that the town had taken over the supplying oft lfood to those found needy and deservw :ing. This is not the case. The town simply supplies a card to the applicant; who has been investigated and the hos- . pital is continuing the supplying of 1 food to those who are approved by the relief officer. This kindness at the hospital should be remembered, though it is only typical of the Sisters in all their contacts with those in sickness or other trouble. All transients seek- ing food at the hospital must first se- cure a card from the relief omcer, I. E. Dunn. By this plan the hOSpital is relieved of the burden of any un- worthy applicants. while those deserv- ing are given food, thanks to the kind-l ness of the St. Mary's hospital. In' some days recently as many as seventy- ' five were fed at the hospital at the one time. but last week Mr. Dunn had this number reduced to less than fifty and some of these have since been taken of! the list.

A meeting of the directors of the Timmins Curling Rink was held on Monday and it was definitely decided to go ahead with the building of two extra sheets of ice for the use of the curlers. One of the new sheets of ice will be at one side of the rink and the other at the opposite side. The decisâ€" ion to proceed with this work was arriv- ed at with the idea of providing in- creased accommodation for the growing list of members of the Curling Club and also in preparation for the Northern Ontario Curling Association bonspiel to be held at 'nmmins in the early part of February of the coming year. Those who have not already sent in their subscriptions for the coming sea.- son for the Curling Club as outlined in the letter sent out a month or so ago hy the secretary should do so at once, as the decision is now definitely made to proceed with the addition of the two sheets of ice.

When I visited lthe property on Aug. 31 six drill holes {had been completed. They intersect the mineralized zone at a depth of ap- proximately 100 feet. The six .holes have proven the mineralized zone to exist along a length of 1,000 feet, with the drill cores in ore across an average width of 15 feet. The deposit is cut off by a porphyry dike at the south end, but on the north side, being drift- covered on the surface, the length of the mineralized zone is not definitely known. Drilling is being continued on this side by the Nipissing. The present results are favourable enough to war- rant continued development over the; winter months.

In a nice little speech Mrs. Army strong, another noted swimmer, paid gracious tribute to Johnny Walker whose skill and kindness were so valu- able to those under his charge. Isadore Sponder, under Ln'essure, made what other members of the par- ty claimed to be his very first speech, and he did well. He hoped to be with Johnny Walker again next year and that he would make a better showing. “Hap." Watson was pressed to say a few words and eventually did so in pleasing way. Then it was insisted that he favour the gathering with a song or two, and in his Irish numbers he was a big hit. George Young‘s brief but effective little speech made a hit with the Ki- wanis. His modesty and general at- titude also won him friends. The chief point he made in his remarks was that he hoped the visit of the swimmers through the North would stimulate in- terest in swimming and in other sports, and he hoped the young folks would especially take interest in swimming because of its 'wholesomeness, health- fulness and the way it built up strength and stamina. Johnny Walker gave the club a very interesting talk on how he trained the swimmers. Lack of proper training. he said, had been the cause of George Young dropping out of previous swims, but this year George had trained faith- fully an-d well and his coach knew he would win. Co.. Col.

LADIES’ SECTION OF THE GOLF CLUB ON SEPT. 18TH TIMMINsS TENNIS CLUB TO HOLD DANCE ON OCTOBER 2ND l The Mountjoy Settlers‘ Association had an delegation wait upon A. F. Ken- ning M.P.P., on Saturday last with a view to seeing that the settlers of Mountjoy did not sufler hardship this winter so far as this could be prevent- ed and also with a view to the construc- tion of needed roads and the improve- ment of existing ones so as to assist the development of the township. There are about a hundred men in the town- ship who will be unemployed this win- ter, so the condition would be serious if no work were to be provided. Mr. Kenning, MP.P., gave a sympathetic hearing to the delegation and assured them that the Government’s policy was to do all possible to relieve conditions and to spend as much as possible on necessary roadwork. He felt sure that: the men in Mountjoy township would' not need for work this coming winter. The chermnent had money put aside to provide for needed roadwork. The delegation waiting on the local member included: â€"-A. Belanger, president of the Mountjoy Settlers Association; John Hull, secretary; Chas. Barr and: F. M. Wallingford. Mr. Kenning ptro-' mised to take up the matter fully with the Department. the town. Recently in Cochrane there has been a determination that the in- jury and loss must stop. The recent riot, engineered apparently by the Icommunists. and in which a provincial police officer was injured, was the last straw. When the alien paraders on [Wednesday refused to observe law and jorder and it appeared as if there would ibe a repetition of the affair some weeks gago, the people of Cochrane joined 'wholeheartedly with the'police to as- sure the fact that Cochrane was hand- ling its own affairs and not being trampled on by any communist-inspir-t ed foreigners. The paraders refused to; disperse, but when they proceeded tol the town hall they found some hun-l dreds of citizens of the town awaiting, them armed with clubs and other wea- l pons. They were given opportunityl ,again to disperse quietly. but missed? {the opportunity. Another riot was! started but it was not of long duration. ; So far as could be learned no Cochrane f citizens were injured to any extent. but the paraders received a very severe drubbing. They were beaten until there was no fight or disturbance left in‘ them.

Mr. Brigham was on the programme for an address. but on ac- count of the visit here of the directors of the Noranda Mine he was unable to be mesent for the occasion. Rev. Fr. Theriault occupied the chair for the evening and his wit and humour added much to the interest of the oc- casion. Addresses of much interest were given byzâ€"Mayor Drew, of Tim- mins; Dr. H. H. Moore, Dr. N. Russell. Dr. J. McClinton, Rev. Fr. O’Gorman. J. A. Bradette, M.P. All the addresses. while brief, were of very interesting and inspiring kind. In addition there was a remarkably fine programme of music. both vocal and instrumental, every selection being greatly appreciated on merit The numbers includedzâ€"pian-o selections by Sister Gisele; song, Lu- cien Pare; reading, Miss M. Proulx; pianoforte number, K. Tomkinson; song, Miss E. Lamothe. The Saluatory was very effectively given by Miss M. Regan; the introduction of the gradu- ates, by Miss D.

The third commencement exercises of the St. Mary’s Hospital, Timmins. was held on Sunday evening in the parish hall of St. Anthony’s church and was very largely attended. The hall was decorated for the occasion. It had been hoped ‘to have Rt. Rev. L.

There are already a thousand or so of unemployed here now and to allow the foisting of further transients here would be most unfair to the district. The Government should before this have taken steps to lift this unfair burden from towns like Cochrane and Timmins. Pending such help from the Government. other towns may be forced to adopt a similar plan to that of Cochrane. i Thege was a report last night that :Cochrane had put out the three hun- dred transients there and that they were marching in a body to Timmins. This story is not confirmed by enquiry this morning at Cochrane. where it is stated that the majority of those evict- ed. from Cochrane went west. “They are straggling along." The Advance was informed, “as they are not likely to favour parades in a body again for some time.” The opinion at Cochrane was that no material part of the par- aders would go to ’I‘immins. Any part they left Cochrane they were glad to leave and not likely to return. Since the serious disorder some weeks ago the people of Cochrane prepared to stop anything further along that line and they did so very effectively yes- terday. of it. rounding up any stragglers in the gangs of transients who have been living at the expense of Cochrane and repaying kindness with disorder and senseless agitation. Word from Cochrane this morning gives the story as outlined briefly above. In speaking to The Northland Post, The Advance was told that Coch- rane did not expect any further dim- culty with these parading pests. When they left Cochrane they were glad to 3. 301 1 Paid Circulation ' Last W'eok PRICE FIVE CENTS
