When Relief Officer Dunn was asked about the matter, he said there was a little difference in price in some arâ€" ticles, but that in general the prices were fairly close together in the difâ€" "ferent stores. ~~«Councillor Dooley and his committee are to look into the matter further. A. Robitaille asked council if some protection could not be given local bakers against bakers coming in from outside towns and contributing nothing to taxes here or the support of the town. Mayr Drew replied that he did not know of anything that could be dons, and if Mr. Robitaille could sugâ€" gest anything it would be considered. The provincial law governed in such matters of foodstuffs and the town eould not tax outside bakers. Of course, the local bakers had the same right to sell bread in neighbsuring Another man on relief said he was satisfied with the grocery store he patâ€" ronized, but he would like to get enough money out of the order to pay his electric light bill and his rent. council thought this could be arranged. ‘The idea of the orders is to restrict purchases to necessities and to local stores, though each man getting an order is allowed to select the store on which he wishes the order made. The Horticultural Society asked for a grant of $100.00 in view of the work beâ€" ing done by the Society. The matter was left over until after the estimates are considered. A petition was received for saniâ€" tary sewer on Bannerman avenue, from Preston street to the hill. This was referred to the board of works comâ€" mittee. Mayor Drew brought up the question of reâ€"opening the town market. He thought the market of value to the townspeople and also that it was well to encourage the settlers. _ Councillor Chenier said he had been approached by a man who had a good building on Balsam street to start the The penalty of $8.06 on some taxes in arrears paid recently by a widow was authorized to be written off. Councillior A. P. Dooley said he would like to see the bill where there was $9.00 differgice on a $28.00 bill, and he asked for the bill in question. On receipt of this he said he would check up. Councillor Dooley told of a comâ€" fraint of the same kind that he had received and investigated, to find that the very article specially mentioned had been cheaper at .the local store than at the chain store on the day in question. "The storekeepers have been paying taxes, supporting the town, exâ€" tending credit and help for years, and I think they ought to have break," said Councillor Dooley. Councillor Caron said that he noâ€" ticed the chain stores had bargain days, but so had the other stores He had watched his own bills and found that the local stores broke about even with the prices at the chain stores. l\hayor Drew pointed out that there must be some protection for the men who has to pay the taxes and foot the bill for reliefâ€"the local merchant. He did not think the (difference was as great in e prlces as suggested and the idea of the town in giving the orders was that the taxpayers would have a chance to meet their bills. Two men on relief work in the town complained to council that they were_1 not allowed orders on the chain stores. "We want to make the orders go as far as possible," said one, who added that prices in other stores were much as one and a half times the prices in tÂ¥e chain stores. The other man said that on an order" of $28.00 it had cost him $9.00 more than if he could have patronized the chain stores.

Marcil Riard spoke to the council about some of his tenants not paying Roeir rent. They claimed the bailiff showed them a paper ordering them not to pae'. The town had not issued any distress, so council figured that ngither the landlord nor the town was getting the rent in these cases. The regular meeting of the town council wa held Monday afternoon with Mayor Geo. 8. Drew in the chair and Councillors A. Caron, Dr. S. L. Honey, R. Richardson, J. T. Chenier, A. P. Dooley and J. Morrison present. Town Council to Banquet _ the Timmins Hockey Feam Council Decides to Follow Precedent and Give Mark of Approval to Hockey Club for Winning the Championâ€" ship of the N.O.H.A.

[ 3 e# 2 Sections 16 Pages Mayor Drew said that while he had | not mentioned the matter to anyone ' else, he felt that the town should take lsome notice of the success of the Timâ€" ‘mins Hockey team. It was the first time that Timmins had won the Norâ€" |thern Ontario championship and the chance to go to Toronto to compete for the Allan Cup. The N.OH.A. champinship trophy had been paid for by the yarioys teams of the North. In past years any town winning it had shown honour to its team in some way. He thought the Timmins team deâ€" served some recognition for their good work during the season and for the publicity given the town. He thought the council might join with the Kiâ€" wanis Club to give the boys a banquet asa mark of appreciation, the town defray the expenses of all outside the Kiwanis Club» The idea was to jinvite the members of the hockey club ancd the executive. Dr. Honey moved swiftly in the matâ€" ter and that eveging it had been arâ€" ranged that the banquet to the hockey boys would be given in the Empire hotél on Monday evening of next week, March 2ist. Vocational School Provides Programme The first forms of the Vocational Schools provided the programme for the last literary meeting. Although the punils of these forms are among the youngest of the schosol, under the direction of Miss Garrow and Mr. Broâ€" derick they presented an excellent and entertaining programme. Dr. Honey, as a member of the Kiâ€" wanis Club, was sure the club would be ready to assist in any way. Other members or council favoured the idea and it was left to Dr. Honey to make arrangements with the Kiwanis A play entitled "Pear‘s" provided the second number. The story deals with two sisters and their brother who have lost their money and whq are all emâ€" ployed in a large departmeni store where some pearls have ‘been stolen. They are all gathered in their flat in the large city and are celebrating Polly‘s birthday. The cast is: â€"Peggy Lewis (Iris McDermott); Polly Lewis (Eva Prest); Tod, their brother (Denâ€" nis Lawley), and Brown (Ronald Nelâ€" son). A song, ‘"The Wooden Soldier and the China Doll," by the C1. B. Girls reâ€" ceived much applause and called for an encore. The second play was "Peter Project." The scene was laid in a classâ€"room, and it is during the absence of the schocl ma‘am that a great deal of the play takes place. The pu}yls demonâ€" strate the meaning of project, "to get busy and do The cast was:â€"Miss Heowitt, (teacher), (Vera Bell); Mr. Cornish, principtil (Courtâ€" ney Faughman); Mr. Kent, bobk agent, (Ken Adamson); Peter (George Macâ€" Lean); Genevieve Gertrude (Olive Pearce):; Irma (Margaret Macdonald); Mrs. Jones (Jean Fortin; Chetwynd Jones, son of Mrs. Jones, (Albert Keeâ€" lan}). Another Interesting Meeting of the Timmins High and Vocational Schools Literary Society on Friday. The introductary number was a selecâ€" tion by the High School orchestra. While the members were preparing for the second play the orchestra playâ€" ed another selection. A very popular number was a Rusâ€" sian dance by the girls and boys of The final number was a selection by the orchestra. The meeting closed with the National Anthem. Another chorus by the C1. A. girls was warmly received. year it would be well to have the audiâ€" tor go through the estimates and point out any differences from previous years, This would be helpful, he thought. Mayor Drew said that if the gentleâ€" man was prepared to give accommoâ€" dation he should place his proposition in detail before the council. If not, the council should take other measures, as there should be a market here. A number of water rebates were authorized for due reason. A resoluâ€" tion authorized the transfer of anâ€" other of the Broadway lots. Amounts were passed on account for the library, schools, etc. Routine accounts and payâ€" rolls were passed for payment. The mayor asked the chairmen of the market and carry it on three d week. On Sunday night and Monday perâ€" sistent rumours were fioating round town that the executive of the Timmins Hockey Association had protested the game played last Friday night in Toâ€" ronto against the Nationals of that city, when the Timmins team were deâ€" feated 5 to 1. The grounds for the protest were traced to various sources, but to none could any authentic information be added.

As soon as it was shown that the bill as it stood would prevent prospectors from making reports on claims to their own syndicates the measure had no chance of being accepted. A petition against the bill was circulated in town last week and was very largely signed. Indeed, when the scope of the bill was shown practically everybody was against it. T. F. Helimuth, counsel for the sponsors of the bill ocffered to have the mining industry exempted from the provisions of the bill, but members of of the committee were not satisfied even with this Hon. Chas. McOrea and other members of the committee opposed the bill on the ground that it went too far in giving the proposed Professional â€" Engineers‘ Association control of the whole enginsering busiâ€" ness. One special point made was that the bill would rule out the practical man from the handling of work for which his practical explrrience might specially qualify him. According to one member the bill would prevent nonâ€"engineer from Gesigning and conâ€" structing barns and garages, super'm-} tending road work or sewers. The bill was defeated on a show of hands.
