Schumacher Mourns Death of Miss Elley scnumacner. February finch! to The Advance. The Ladles.’ Auxllzary held a very pleasant time on Wednesday evening in honour of one of their members, Mrs. A. J. MacDonald. who has moved to Thnmlm. An addrws was read and on behalf of the members Mrs. MacDonald was presented with a silver cake plate. Mrs. MacDonald will be greatly missed as she always for a number of years gave very generously of her tlme and talent to assist the church and its vari- ous organizations. She leaves a place which will be hard to fill. She re- sptmded to the presentation by saying that she really did not feel she was going far away as she would always be able to visit with the members often. although she would work in another dlrurch.

The charge of permitting drunken- ness on his premises. as preferred against Isaac Brisbois was dismissed in court this week. A remand of two weeks was made in the case of a Deloro man who was charged with theft from John Jones and also with retaining stolen pro- pe rt y. Mrs. Vincenzo Frattoni was charged with obstructing the police in their duty. The police said that on a re- cent visit there she had thrust a bottle of liquor in the stove to prevent the police finding it. As the police had not had time to produce their search warrant before the action objected to. it was held that there had been no obstruction on the part of the women and the case was dismissed. ! :uil Pasquin was found guilty of the theft of a timer from a car on Wilson avenue and he was sentenced to not less than three months nor more than A.

During the 'few days when the library was closed down on account of the necessity for moving into new quarters people were impressed with the large place filled by the library in the public in- terests. I: is well occasionally to em- phasize the fact of the public library's usefulness and benefit to the commun- ity. It took a long time and a lot of effort and patience to establish the public library here in the first place. but those concerned may well look back now with the feeling that it was all well worth while. Public Library has Membership of 4121 There were 72.690 Books Taken Out Last Year. The Timmins Public Library Now Has Nearly 10,000 Volumes. With the re-appointment at Mon- day‘s town council meeting of Mr. Ringsleben as a member of the pub- lic library board the executive is again complete. The following are the mem- bers of the Timmins public library board:â€"â€"-Rev. R. S. Cushing, chairman; Mrs. Jos. A. Theriault, vice-chairman; E. L. Longmore, treasurer; Mrs. D. Grimston. sem'etan'; Rev.Bruce Millar, W. C. Ringsleben. A. J. Transom. and Rev. Fr. O’Gorman. reading room. It is not out of place to add a word of praise for the effective public-spirit- led service of the chairman and other cmceis and members of the board in the success of the public library here. and also to state that the advance- ment and benefit of the Timmlns pub- lic library is due in large measure to the patience. skill and interest of the ‘librarian, Mrs. D. Grimston, who has carried on the work very edectively since 1e organization of the library here. It is interesting to note the growth of the public library here from its small beginnings in 1924. At the pre- sent time the following are the books in the library:â€" Adult. fiction, 4.751. Adult. non-fiction, 2277. Juvenile, 2,649. Total. 9.677. It should also be mentioned that the library board has used special care and skill in the choice of books with the result that the selection is an unusually good one and meets in excellent way the general requirements. The total number of members on the roll during the past year was 4.121. The circulation of books during the past year reached the impressive total of 72,690 volumes. which is an increase of about 1.000 over the previous year. showing that the library is not only maintaining but increasing its popu- laxity. In addition to the library features. there is a reading room that is prov- ing of increasing value and interest. leading newpapers, magazines and re- ference works being available in the 1 Mr. ILL.

NOTED SAXAPHONE PLAYER \‘o’ITH CLUB ROYAL ORCHESTRA The Club Royal orchestra is now fea- 1, ui'ing Al.

It was “Juvenile Night” and the many young artists did credit to themselves and to their teachers. The selections by the Tlmmjns Citizene' Band rwere ales en- joyed, and the event generally was con- sidered by the large attendance present as one of the best for a long time. Dr. S. L. Honey. one of the members of the executive csmmittee cf the band. aC‘ed as chairman and filled the posi- tion very acceptably and effectively. Owing to the length of the pro- gramme it was not possible to allow enccres. and in view cf the fact that each and every item on the wogramme was exceptionally good it would not be fair to single any out for special men- tion.

A. Gordon, Minister of Labour. at Ottawa this week. The delegation had representatives said to come from vari- ous cities. They asked for the repeal of Section 98 of the Criminal Code. Hon. Mr. Gordon took the matter un- der consideration and promised to draw the question to the attention of the Premier. The attitude at Ottawa, this week in regard to W:-3dw:rth's pr: pos- al for the amendment of the criminal code shows that there is little chance of parliament even cansidering chang- ing the law forbidding violence and force for psiiticsil schemes and to oVer- throw all government au'lhorit'y. If any group can secure the repeal of Section 98, it is up to the thieves and burglars t: have the sections against theft repealed.
