Roy Brown, a newcomer in the ranks of the local dental fraternity, was conâ€" versing with a group of friends in the Tea Shop the other day when the subâ€" ject of dentistry came up. As usual, in such irtstances, the conversation covered the whole gamut of dental practice, and it was mentioned that graduates of such excellent schools as the Toronto Dental College are now; listed among the best in their protes-' sion in Canada and the U.S.. Someâ€" one asked the tusk extractor about the use of gas, as an aid in tooth removals, and the dentist told of his experiences in this connection. With a proper obâ€" : servance of the ethics of the profession | he recalled a number of anonymous incidents in this connection. One of his patients, in Timmins, liked the exâ€" perience so well that when he emerged! from the gas he smiled at the Doc. and exclaimed, "Gosh, Doc, that was the' best jag I ever had!" , P P T d O P Mr. and Mrs. H.

MADE BEST POSSIBLE JAC THE DENTISTS GAS |amm««mmmw No Politics for Ontario As this column, which is devoted to the activities of all exâ€"service men‘s organizations, has pointed out in the past few weeks, it would be disastrous for the Canadian Legion or any other organization of returned soldiers to enâ€" ter into the political area. This thought was voiced at the Ontario Command convention of the Canadian Legion in session last week at Sault Ste. Marie. Lt.â€"Col. F. J. Picking, in an able address said:â€""The moment that we depart from the common ground of comradeship, citizenship and service, inevitably at that moment will coome dissention among members beâ€" cause of the varying political paths they hold," said Colonel Picking reâ€" garding the proposal that the Legion enter politics "The Legion has no place in the activities of any political party in existence, and the day the Legion becomes political party, on that day commences the downfall of the Canadian Legion. The Governâ€" ment has always been prepared to lisâ€" ten to and give attention to any proâ€" posals the Legion has seen fit to make on behalf of the exâ€"service men and women of Canada. We have bigger jobs to do serving our comrades and our country." Lt.Col. Picking added that politics within the fold was against the constitution and that the quetion could not be handled at the Provincial convention without referâ€" ence to the Dominion body." This was a very diplomatic way of dealing with a question which had all the earmarks of a scheme to create a prolonged arâ€" gument for no other purpose than to cause a split in the rank and file. All in the North Country will receive this piece of convention news with a feelâ€" ing of gratitude. The work of assistâ€" ing to maintain law and order when calling upon, the work in caring for those in distress, seeking pensions for deserving cases and other similar actiâ€" vities could not be carried through with political interference, and Lt. Col. Picking‘s words should be heeded by all veterans. The Propaganda Smashed The recent publishing of supposed facts of financial difficulties and a fallâ€" ing off of membership in the Canadian Legion was given denial in an address by Major D. S. Roper, president of the Canadian Legion at Sault St. Marie on Wednesday of last week. He stated that the Legion in Ontario had grown from 25,000 in 1927 to 115,000 in 1932. The Ontario Command sends $2,000.00 a month to headquarters and all other provinces of the Dominion approXiâ€" mately the same. Col. Picking also voiced the information that 32 new branches had been formed in Ontario 4 the Porcupine The Canadian Legion in ARIO For the first time in history the Onâ€" tario Command was in a solvent conâ€" dition, the report showing that assets equalled the liabilities. Taking all the above together it presents a very bright picture but the brightest spot of all was the statement that the differences between the Ontario Command and the Toronto and District Council had been fixed up and now all were united in the folds of comradeship. The Dark Horse Kicking When the personnel of the new penâ€" sion investigating committee was formâ€" ed a gentleman from Ottawa made a very bitter protest that he was not among the members appointed. This man, a Mr. W. J. Young, who says he represents thousands of nonâ€"a@ffiliated veterans, is heard from once again, this time before open session of the comâ€" mittee. He began by stating he was dissatisfied with the personnel of the committee. He also criticized the holdâ€" ing of the committee‘s meeting in camera. On this, however, the chairâ€" man, Mr. Justice Rinfret, interpolated that there was no dispotition on the part of the committee to sit in camera, but that until the preliminary work has been cleared away this had been found necessary. The ehairman inâ€" formed Mr. Young that the reference to the committee was restricted to the one thing: administration of the Penâ€" sion Act. The Nonâ€"Affiliated Veterans‘ representative, however, repeated his protest against the secret character of the preliminary meetings. He was unâ€" acquainted with the committee‘s proâ€" cedure, he said. It was like trying to sing the chorus of a song after the verse had been already rendered. On this point, Mr. Rinfret assured Mr. Young that the committee was endeaâ€" vouring to ascertain what the difficulâ€" ties were in connection with adminisâ€" tering the act. When that was comâ€" pleted, the committee would recomâ€" mend remedies to the Government. After reading the above one will agree with the suggestion made in this colâ€" umn that this man‘s credentials should be thoroughly checked up. With their insidious way of working, the red eleâ€" ment will try to work into every orâ€" ganization in Canada. This man says he represents the nonâ€"affiliated vetâ€" erans of Canada. If they are not affiliâ€" acted with any organization how comes it that this man can represent them? There must be organization somewhere or else this man is not speaking the truth and has nobody to represent. From the very first naming of the comâ€" mittee to checkâ€"up on pension legislaâ€" tion this Mr. Young has been causing trouble. In any case he is to be heard again before the committee and no doubt in the meantime it would be a good plan to make a close check of There is an explanation of the reâ€" cent "discovery‘" of coal at Moosonee, but the explanation is one of those unsatisfactory things that leave more mystery than before the explanation was done. Some workmen digging foundations at Moosonee for some T. N. O. buildings encountered a smali quantity of coal. They investigated further and there was more coal. The despatches do not say just what shape the coal was in, but there was some excitement about the discovery with visions no doubt of beds of hard coal right at Moosonee. Men of large viâ€" sion would have a lot of exercise imaâ€" gining the effects of coal beds at Mooâ€" sonee. The authoritiese at North Bay were notified and A. A. Cole, mining engineer for the T. N. O. was inâ€" structed to proceed to Moosonee to investigate. Later, however, the orâ€" ders for the trip for Mr. Cole were countermanded, ‘when it was found that the coal found was simply a small quantity that had been placed there by some persons at some time in the past. The bank of the creek or river had apâ€" parently fallen in and covered this coal. ‘That is the explanation, buk surely it is not too much to suggest that it raises more question , if less hopes, tha n if it had been that a seam of coal had actually been found. Who were the persons depositing the coal there? How did they come to be at Moosonee? Why did they want to place the coal there? Where did they get the coal? Why didn‘t they go back after their coal? during the year and the increase in membership was about 400 a month. The explanation explains only that the coal is not a material deposit of coal, but it leaves so many other quesâ€" tion unanswered that it is more irkâ€" some to the inquisitive than if there had been no explanation.

Timmins Fast and Efficient Service Call or Telephone By One Interested in their Welfare â€" W. A. Devine "The smoothing out of exploration difficulties seems to be one of the big features of the railway extension. For instance, during the recent northern | trip of the Ontario legislators, it was learned from Louis Martindale, oldâ€" time trapper that the new ease of ’gettlng supplies has already encourâ€" aged exploration. As an example, it used to cost $14 to land a bag of flour at James . Bay; now it costs $2.25, Those relative costs apply to practically \all the equipment used by prospectors, so the way has been smoothed for new parties to go into the scores of thouâ€" sands of square miles of Ontario which |\ have not been tested. Iron Ore Not So Good |\ â€""At the moment, from the Governâ€" |\ ment angle, there does not appear to be much hope from the iron ore on Belâ€" cher Islands.â€" Possibilities for y o oene mm e n ol oo + . o oC o se ty o. i8 Area on Extension â€" Best Breakfast Food for During the past few months the question had been asked repeatedly in one form or another, "What about the territory opened up north of Cochâ€" rane?" Some people express curiosity as to the wealth they feel must be in the area to induce the Government rallway to undertake the development of the country. Others appear to be doubtful as to just what there may be in the territory concerned. It is a little difficult to sympathize with this latter class in view of the conditions under which the T. NY O. has been extended from time to time. Each extension has more than justified itâ€" self, though at the time this did not seem so reasonable. Before the disâ€" covery of Cobalt there did not seem much reason to hope for a great deal from the line reaching up into the "land of the stunted pine." The exâ€" tension farther north seemed still less reasonable untili Porcupine and Iroâ€" quois Falls presented so much trade for South and traffic for the prailway as to leave the question of the value of the railway beyond any doubt whatâ€" ever., In such case the railway careâ€" fully weighed the situation before any move was made. The foresight of the railway has been fully justified by reâ€" sults at Cobalt, Kirkland Lake, Porcuâ€" pine, Iroquois Falls, Cochrane. Why expect the foresight of the railway to fail in the case of the extension north of Cochrane. The T. N. 0. has made Coal, Fireclay and Gypsum North of Cochrane. Doubl About Iron Ore of Belcher Islands. Hidâ€" den Wealth of North, a very careful study of the possibilities of the country north of Cochrane. I may be taken as a foregone concluâ€" sion that the railway has the greatest faith in the resources of the country from Cochrane to James Bay or the railway would not have been extended In the past the judgment of the railâ€" way has been so fully upheld that it is no more than reasonable to expect that the latest extension has been unâ€" dertaken only after the most thoughtâ€" ful consideration and that the results wili fully justify the work cf carrying on the railway to James Bay. run between $45,000,000 and $50,000,000. so just what is to come out of the newer North is for the future to say. "One point stands out. It is that the way has been smoothed for the opening up of the new land. Any perâ€" son who tours the North and sees the difficulty of prospecting, even with the railway intersecting the territory, can appreciate how greatly the harvests of the future have been advanced through the addition of an adequate transporâ€" tation service, At the best, the prosâ€" pestor has an uncertain career; and, since he has already brought several hundred millions to the province through: his discoveries, the expendiâ€" ture of $12,000,000 on a railway extenâ€" sion will doubtless be looked upon mostly as paying back to the Nortk some of the money it has already adâ€" vanced. : "Perhaps the shortest answer is to say that the railway is down, ready for whatever the future may provide in the way of mineral or oil discoveries and to add that when the T. N. O. line was first started from North Bay there were practically no gold harvests from Northern Ontario. When the railway was started the Kirkland Lake and Porcupine camps were barren wastes, little known even to the wanâ€" dering prospectors; yet this year Onâ€" tario‘s gold harvest is estimated to In the meantime, however, the public will be interested in the discussion ol the possibilities of the new area opened by the railway, though there should be in the background always the thought that the railway knows what it is about and that this has been proven by the results of the past. In a recent issue The Mail and Empire deals interestâ€" ingly with the possibilities of the James Bay extension. People in the North may not agree with the references to the iron ore of Belcher Islands. The general opinion is likely to be that the iron ore resources are much better than indicated in the article referred to. Also, there will be a tendency to add to what is mentioned in the article. The possibilities of finds of gold and other valuable minerals along the Alâ€" bany and in other areas of the North will also be noted by many. However, the article in The Mail and Empire is well worth consideration and is accordâ€" ingly given here in full. The Mail and Empire Says:â€" â€"‘"What is the James Bay extension of the Temiskaming and Northern Onâ€" tario Railway going to do for the prosâ€" perity of Ontario? Since it cost an approximate $12,000,000 to build, and will therefore take around $600,000 yearly in â€" servicing charges, it should produce something concrete; but, like so many of the newer phases of the North, theâ€" answer is slightly elusive. ‘"The chief trouble with the Belcher Islands iron," in the viewpoint of an official of the Department of Minces, "is the irregularity of the ore.
