The big event of the year at the SouthE Porcupine Continuation School hall passed off with a blaze of giOry on onday evening whexf the firemen held their annual Hallowe’en dance. Close to two hundred couples were * present, a number of parties coming in 'from Schumacher‘ and Timmins. One carload of participants came up from Iroquoiis Falls. The majority of those Epresent were in costume, some of them Ebeing particularly beautiful Folk cos- turnes of the various countries were ,prevalent.

He ’said he had given the dog away to lpeople at Gold Centre but was ordered Ito either destroy it or send it out of “the country. The case was adjourned until the man could report that he had done so. One drunk pleaded guilty but wanted thirty minutes in which to get out of town and he would not trouble ' further. However the magistrate ruled. the usual ten and costs or jail. The man then pleaded he was dick and Scctia was afraid he might lose his breath on viewing them._ A tall and forceful-looking policeman (G. Soland) wanted medical attention so was assur-[ ed he would get plenty of it Where he was going. For assaulting his wife a foreigner from Schumacher got a sen- tence of not less than six months and I l not more than two years at the refor- matOry. He claimed he had taken some drinks then gave his wife “what you call itâ€"-hell,” for buying something he thought she could do without. The magistrate evidently resoived this mephistophelian activity should be re- served for the nether regions and gave him time to think it over. He had been convicted before.

A course of instruction of six lectures and gm examination, and certificates are awarded to successful candidates. Classes of instruction are organized by the St. John Ambulance Association in all parts of the British Empire, and by obtaining this necessary knowledge. you can render help to your fellow be- ings in time of danger. “Why not learn first aid?” is the pertinent question asked. Those ob- taining the First Aid certificate of the St. John Ambulance Association can, if they wish, join‘ the St. John Ambul- ance Brigade. “Perhaps you have not looked at things just in this way, but can you afford to dismiss the matter from your mind? You will look for, and appre- ciate, skilled assistance should you be unfortunate enough to meet with an accident. You can hardly do less than acquire the knowledge which will enable you to extend help to others." “To find yourself entirely ignorant of the action‘ to be taken to alleviate pain. possibly to save life? “Think how valuable your services would be in such an emergency had you the knowledge which enabled you promptly to arrest bleeding; restore the fainting, resuscitate the drowned. In short. to render the preseribed first aid treatment. What is the idea of instruction in first aid? someone may ask. One an- swer was given some months ago at the presentation of the McCrea cup to the McIntyre team for first aid. The man- ager of the mine. R. J. Ennis, and other prominent speakers of the day. em- phasized the saving in ilfe and health that was known to be accomplished on the McIntyre Mine through the train- ing given in first aid. Speakers quoted the general reduction in fatalities in the different mines, especially at the Mc- Intyre. It was agreed on all hands that safety work and first aid work are of the very greatest value. “What would be your feelings had you to stand aside, sorry but helpless, when accident or sudden illness overtook a fellow being? A circular issued by the St. John Ambulance Brigade recently indicates the Value of the work. This circular says in part:â€" ments can be made for Mr. Debney to be in Timmlns every Monday night to carry on this work. THURSDAY. NOVEMBER SRO. I”! Timmins, Ontario Ontario
