Accompanying her was Mrs. Beck. of Toronto. There is a great amoimt and variety {of information to be gathered from the annual financial statement of the town as published in The Advance a couple of weeks ago. As there are some mis- understandings as to the amount of fines from police court this year, figures from the annual financial state- ment may be of special interest. For the ten and a half months ending Nov. 15th the total ambunt paid into the town in fines and penalties was $9,- 391.86 For the whole year of 1930 the total of fines and penalties paid to the ma was $5,205.39. This means that for 1981 the town received in ten and a half months $4,186.46 more in fines. and penalties than in the whole of the previous year. At the same time it must be admitted that there has been no effort made to turn the police de- partment into a money-making ven- ture. The whole aim of the police de- partment seems to be to keep law and order well maintained and observed with the minimum of prosecutions and without undue interference with any- one except those who will not observe the law. All of the departments of town service have gone along smoothly and eflectively during this year. and none more so than the police depart- ment. The many frlends of Mrs. H.

Nov. 27th. of Edward Nord. son of Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Nord, 63 Birch street. The lad, who was only a little over 13 years of age, was popular with all who knew him, and his death is deeply re- gretted. He had been ill only about three weeks. The funeral took place on Sunday, Nov. 29th, service being conducted in the Baptist church, Timmins. by Pas- tor Slade. The attendance at the fun- eral was very large, the church being filled to the doors by friends of the family.

According to a recent publication of the Municipal Research Bureau, Timmins has shown more improve- ment financially in the collection of taxes during the past two years than any other municipality in Ontario. I have never been nominated for Municipal office under the direction of any club or organization. have therefore never been under the dictatorship of any such, and never shall be. If it were the wish expressed at a general public meeting or by a ratepayers’ associ- ation that another party should be nominated as Mayor Ladies and Gentlemen: On Monday, the seventh inst an election is being held for the office of. Mayor and as I am a candidate for re- election I respectfully solicit your vote and influence. The members of Council have already been declared elected by acclamation and I deeply regret the incon- venience to which you peOple are being put and the ex- pense to the municipality of an election for Mayor, par- ticularly at this time when all available funds are required for relief work.

Strang, who was, however. unable to help them as he could not handle the row boat near by. His daughter. Miss Linda Strang promptly got into the .boat and with Paavo Tuovila rowed out the long dis- tance to where the men were. It would lhave been folly to attempt to drag the exhausted men into the rowboat, and this was not attempted. Instead, they secured the canoe, and helped the two chilled men to hang on to the boat and in this way safely towed them to shore. Without the presence of mind and in- genuity of the young man and young woman concerned the two men would undoubtedly have perished. As it was they were dragged to shore. and there it was found that the one man was unable to stand. Again the resource~ fulness of the rescuers was evidenced. A fire was built and the two men were I warmed and tended. Water was heat- ! ed and the men given hot drinks to avert- danger of chills and colds. So well were the two men cared for that they suflered no ill effects from the harrowing experience in which they were close enough to death. When the men were out of danger they were taken back by boat to their own places, the canoe being taken along." Bravery Shown in Saving Human Life J. H. Doey, of Shillington, writing to The Advance from “On the Trail," calls attention to an incident of cour- age and resource shown by some set- tiers in saving human life. He thinks the incident should not pass without reCOgnition and there will be general agreement with this. Here is the stow as outlined by Mr. Doey:-â€" Young Lady Rows Boat to Tow to Safety Men in Grave Danger of LOsing Their Lives. Action Should be Recognized. “I think the case worthy of the. at- tention of such parties as are interest- ed in rewarding gallantry in the sav- ing of human lives. Abom a month ago two men were engaged setting and taking a net but were unfortunate in upsetting their can-0e, being thrown into the water. After striving for some time they found it impossible to right the canoe and make shore. They be- gan calling for help, and were heard by a settler, Mr. Chas. Strang, who was, however, unable to help them as he could not handle the row boat near In concluding his letger M11. Doey says:â€"-“I told them that. the story 12; New Brunswick, 10; Quebec. 65; Ontario, 82: Manitoba. 1?; Saskatche- wan. 21; Alberta, 17; British Columbm, . 165 and Yukon, 1. should go to the press. They said it had been sent to a Finnish paper pub- lished in Sudbury. I said that the story must go to the English press, and I believed it would be shown that such splendid work would not go unreward- ed. Give the story to the ”people. Mr. Editor." Census Gives Canada a Population of 10,353,778 A population increase of more than one million and a half, or 17.82 per cent., is shown for the whole of Can- ada in a census bulletin issued this week. The population today is, the Dominion Btu'eau of Statistics reports, 10,353,776 as compared with 8,787,949 a decade ago. Ontario has the greatest ponulation in the Dominion. 3,426,488, an increase of 16.80 per cent.. but the gain is not so great as of several other provinces. British Columbia leading with 31.38 per cent. Quebec Gains 21.56 Per Cent. Quebec, the key province in fixing representation in the House of Com- mons with its fixed membership of 65, has a population of 2,869,793, or a gain of 21.56 per cent. Saskatchewan and Alberta also show sharp gains of 21.612 and 23.63 per cent. respectively. The bulletin issued yesterday com- pares very closely with a forecast issu- ed by the Dominion statistician. R. H. Coats, last Friday, which placed Can- ada's total population at 10,360,000. A redistribution of the representa- tion in the Commons will be necessary. The Commons will still have 245 mem- bers, but Nova. Scotia will lose two members. New Brunswick one, while Alberta. will gain one and British Columbia twc. The figures issued are subject to a final check. but it is‘believed the re- presentation of the provinces will be: Prince Edward IsIand, 4: Nova Scotia, Completing the returns for all the provinces, the bulletin issued gives British Columbia‘s population as 689.- 210, an increase in a decade of 164,628. | The Yukon‘s population is shown 88‘ 4,213, an increase of 56 while the Northwest Territories showed a decline of 855 to a total 0! 7,133. Debenture payments have been promptly met and con.â€" siderable work financed from general revenue. At present over seventy men are employed on relief work. During 1931 over two hundrd new water services have been installed and seventy additional sewer connections made. Preliminary work on sewers to serve the Barn tleman Townsite, Gauthier Townsite and southerly part of Moneta is now under way. Streets and roads have been widened and improved in several places for the convenience and safety of the public. Before being elected Mayor 1 had the pleasure of serving you for five years as councillor and the last two of those years as chairman of the finance commit- tee where experience was gained which I have since found to be of great value. I have always endeavoured to deal fairly and patiently with all matters brought before me by citizens regardless of their nationality or occupation and if re-elected shall continue to do so. In conclusion I would say that this election is of the utmost importance to you ratepayers of Timmins and I respectfully request that all qualified to vote, proceed to the polls on Monday next and exercise your fran- chise.

HO‘VEY GOLD MINES MAKING NEW RECORD IN RECENT NIONTHS Since last August Howey Gold Mines has been making a new record each month in the matter of gold produc- tion. according to company officials. It is now estimated that November will see new high and surpass Octo- ber when production reached a tota: of $81,000. The new tube mill was put in operation early this month and has worked in satisfactorily. From Nov. 16th to Nov. 23rd. production was at the rate of $3,000 daily, and when the new mill is thoroughly run in it is ex- pected that gold output will be at the rate of $100,000 monthly or $1,200,000 per annum. Present mill capacity is 725 tons daily, but should reach 800 tons during the next week or ten days. According to northern adviceSiscoe Gold Mines now has sufficient ore in- dicated to keep the mill going at the present rate of operations and the current grade of ore for a period 0: more than two years.
