Dangler, Kirkland Lake has organized a new physical culture club after the pattern of the one established recently in Timâ€" aki artists claims that the trip from Iroqucis Falls to Timmins can be made without difficulty in nine hours. From EFroquois Falls to South Porcupine the skiers used the right of way of the railway, but from South Porcupine to Timmins was made by the highway. Iroquois Falls ski experts claim the season‘s long distance record in this part of the North. According to the claim made by the Iroquois Falls ski artists, Laurie Brarts and Phil Abramâ€" son made the trip from the Falls to Timmins, a distance of 42 miles, in 11 hours running time. Leaving Iroquois Falls at.6.15 in the morning they reachâ€" er Connaught at 9.15 a.m. After lunchâ€" ing at Connaught they proceeded to Hoyle, arriving at that centre at 12.30. They reached South Porcupine, which they figured as 35 miles from the Falls, at 3.15, They remained at South Porâ€" cupine for about an hour and half, before tackling the rémaining seven miles to Timmins. One of the Falls: Travelled 42 Miles in 11 Hours by Ski Route "Coniaurum‘s operations in 1932 were most satisfactory. When the annual report is issued it will show prodyction in dollars about the same as in 1931. Average ore grade will be lower, but this was offset by reduction in costs, despite a large amount of exploration during the period. Operating net proâ€" fit will likely be about the same, perâ€" haps a little better than the 1931 showâ€" ing of $180,795." "During the past few months Conâ€" laurum has been searching on the 400â€" ft. level, particularly for the upward extension of orebodies which have been giving good production on levels from 1,000 to 1,750 ft. So far the work at shallow horizons has not been producâ€" tive of much ore, but possibilities have not yet been exhausted. "Deepest work at Coniaurum is at the 2,500â€"ft. level, reached by a winze. At this horizon No. 7 vein has openâ€" ed up and a promising creshoot deâ€" veloped. Drilling below the level inâ€" dicated downward extension of the ore.

Hooley in Form TIMMINS, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 23RD, 1933 "Of course, it was largely because of the drop in the price of silver that some of the Cobalt mines were closed, and it is confidently believed that the day will come when some of these mines will again be operated. "As gold is what is so badly needed in the British world tcday we have been wondering why the Canadian Governâ€" ment does not hire competent prosâ€" pectors to prospect all over the north, and thus find out all about Canada‘s hidden wealth. The government might nc# think it desirable to develop all the prospects found immediately on disâ€" covery, but owing to the great need of gold wealth stme of the most promisâ€" ing mines might be sold to reliable companies by public tender, the govâ€" ernment to be protected not only with a fair percentage of the profits or aJ royalty, but also in other respects. ‘"We do not wish to leave the impresâ€" sion that we favour governments going into business, but the present situation is unlike any other situation the counâ€" try has ever experienced. In Canada out of wark ‘who must be kept by the State. ‘Why not make a suitable selecâ€" tion of these men eand put them at work for the State under the superâ€" â€""*"The exploitation of Temiskaming upwards of thirty years ago was beâ€" cause of its agricultural prospects. True, there had been some prospecting for silver done, but the failure of the Wright Mine on the Quebec side did not offer encouragement to the few prospectors who were working on the Ontario side until the Timmins Broâ€" thers, and the Tretheways startled the world ‘by their silver discoveries. For a number of years the Cobalt camp was the talk of people in many countries, and notwithstanding that prospectors went north and reported rich gold disâ€" coveries they coulkl not for several years, get people with capital to help them develop their prospects. And, unfortunately, in some cases, the first mines developed did not give satisfacâ€" tory results. But, there came the Holâ€" linger and others in quick succession, and then some of the most successful silver mine operators turned their atâ€" tention to working the gold mines with a success which has been, or it is hoped will be "the making of Canada." However, with this preface, The Adâ€" vance gives herewith the proposal or suggestion of The Speaker:â€" If the prospectors could have only a few of the properties they have already staked and developed to the interestâ€" ing stage give.back to them some of the money due for their time, labour and expense, they would forthwith be off again at their own expense to discover still further properties. Grubâ€"staking prospectors would be some help, but to recompense prospectors fqr their past work would be still better, and it would also mean that they would do more prospecting "on their own" immediateâ€" ly. To emphasize the point it may be repeated:â€"There are hundreds of proâ€" mising discoveries awaiting capital for development. If the governments can not finance this development, then how can they finance further discoveries if such are madg The trouble rests, not with the lack of discoveries, but with the lack of capital to develop them to the producing stage. be expected, The Speaker approaches the question in a reasonable and fair manner and also with some apparent hesitancy. FPurther, The Speaker conâ€" cludes by leaving the suggestion with the Ontario and Dominion Departments of Mines for consideration. The Speaker‘s suggestion is that the Govâ€" ernment employ skilled prospectors to uncover the go‘d mines of Canada. At first sight there seems to be much in the suggestion. On closer consideraâ€" tion, however, it will be readily agreed that only the best prospectors should be financed to search for new gold mines. When the mines were found, s9 far as prospectors can find them, what then? To bring each one of them to production would mean an expenditure of $100,000.00 to $1,000,000.00. Is the government to take a chance on putâ€" ting up this money? If so, why not finance the literally hundreds of mines already discovered by prospectoors. Old and skilled prospectors belisve they have properties of unusual value in the Night Hawk area, the McArthur area and other parts of the Porcupine; in the Matachewan, Red Lake, Patricia, Lightning River and other districts. These claims are just as likely to prove valuable as any new ones discovered by prospectors sent out now by the governâ€" ments3. These properties await deâ€" velopment, while new ones "discovered" by any prospectors sent out would take so much longer before they would be worthy of financing. In cther words, the chief trouble is the financing ot the properties to the producing stage. NNi e ts mm ce 2 _ In the desire to find something to assist present conditicns a number of suggestions are being made, some of them rather absurd to those who know. Because the gold industry is so vital to the prosperity of the country and beâ€" cause the gold mining industry has stocd up so nobly under the adverse conditicns of the day there is a tendâ€" ency to particularly centre on this inâ€" dustry in seeking soluticn of the proâ€" blems of the day.

By the way there are nine dentists in Kirkland Lake, to observe Saturday afternoons vand evenings hereafter as holidays, not making appointments after noon on Most of the people in this part of the North have had the cpinion that North Bay was closed up mighty tight on Sundays. Efforts of travellers to buy a package of cigarettes, tobacco, matches, or newspapers in North Bay met with sad refusal in so many cases that North Bay is shunned as much‘ as possible on Sundays, But anpparently the worst is yet to come! The North Bay board of police comâ€" missicners at their last monthly meetâ€" ing issued a strict order that any merâ€" chant whose doors are open on Sunday, found selling toobacco, cigars, cigarâ€" ettes, magazines, papers or other proâ€" hibited articles on that day will be proâ€". secuted. The police department was instructed to notify all drug stores, restaurants, and other businesses open on Sunday, that if persons were found violating the local byâ€"laws prohibiting Sunday sales, the Lord‘s Day Act, proâ€" secutions would follow immediately. Numerous complaints of the practice of making sales on Sunday have been! received both from residents of the city, and from the Lord‘s Day Amamel authorities in Toronto, Chief Clark stated. | All Sunday Selling to be Stopped in North Bay The vast majority of the "backâ€"toâ€" theâ€"landers" are returning to rural districts with a determination to stick, in spite of the difficulties facing them. They realize that in spite of low prices they will be able to provide food and shelter. Ncot since the war has Canada exâ€" perienced such a landward movement from ‘the urban communities as that which ‘has taken place during the past year, according to Dr. W. J. Black, Director of Colonization for the Canâ€" adian National Railways. Commentâ€" ing on this movement, Dr. Black says that the demand for farm lands has not been equalled for many years, and is due to the movement of unemployed families from urban centres who, through force of ecchomic cireumâ€" stances have found it necessary to reâ€" vert to their former occupation â€" of farming. These families and single men, who left the farms for the cities in more presperous times, now find themselves in the ranks of the unemâ€" ployed, and with what capital they have left are anxious to get reâ€"established where they will be selfâ€"sustaining and sure of at least a living.® Those who are going back, many of them to their old home communities, are securing land for less money and on better terms than they could have secured the same properties at any time during the last twenty years.

Of course as the work they would be required to do would be doubtâ€" ful of bringing returns in many cases, they must not expect to be highly paid, but it should be understcod that they would be at liberty to leave this work Jjust so soon as they could find work which would suit them better. It would be better for them and the country that they should work for small pay rather than be idle, Lake dentists have agreed Enthusing over the possibilities for making the James‘ Bay region the most attractive winter playground in the Dominion, as well as an unexcelled paradise for sportsmen in the summer months, Mr. Lee stated that the preâ€" cip.ce on which Moosonee townsite is located affords an excellent ski hill to the Moose River. Furthermore, great enjoyment can be taken out of a snow shoe tramp or ski hike down the Moose River to tidewater at the James‘ Bay. These are only two opportunitits which the James Bay, in ‘he natural state, has Mr. Lee explained that this speciaul is more or less of an experiment. If it proves successful it is planned fo make more extensive plans for neyt winter. The special service will be in operation for eight weekâ€"ends starting March 4, and it is hoped that a large number will avail themselves of the opportunity to visit the new seaport terminus durâ€" ing this period. Unexcelled hotel acâ€" commodation will be provided for the visitors. This will include use of the spacious and modernly appointed dance hall. ded. "As a special inducement to peoâ€" ple who follow these sports we will carry their equipment to and from the resort without charge." In making this annofincement Friday morning, Mr. Lee stated that the,Comâ€" mission is aiming to acquaint Northâ€" erners with the exceptional facilities for a winter vacation which exist in the James‘ Bay region. "It offers the most beautiful winter scenery in Canada and the visit is worth a hundred times the money that is necessary to make the trip," he stated.. "The country is idealâ€" ly equipped for winter sports, particuâ€" larly snowshoeing and skiing," he adâ€" Commencing with the weekâ€"end of March 4, special train accommodation iill be provided from Cochrane to Moosonee. The train will run north from Cochrane dn Saturday, remain at Moosonee over Sunday: and return on Monday to reach Cochrane at night time. ‘The fare from all points on the railway will be one cent per mile.‘ A dining car will be attached to the train. Persons residing at points south of Cochrane will have to travel the reguâ€" lar trains on the Friday preceding to make connnections with the Moosonee special. ' Intended as a means of engbling Northerners to visit Moosonee and view the natural beauty of the surrounding country and enjoy the exceptional faciâ€" lities afforded <for the conducting of popular winter sports the T. N. O. Railway Commission has decided to operate special weekâ€"end train service to the James‘ Bay port and offer an attractive fare, George W. Lee anâ€" nounced on Friday. Several months ago The Advance sugâ€" gested the running of special trains to Moosonee, with reduced fares, as a means of popularizing the new terâ€" minus of the T. N. O. as a resort for tourists. Judging from a reference in The North Bay Nugget last week this plan is to be put in force, practically at once. The Nugget says:â€" Special Service to Moosonee Planned ‘‘‘With the New Liskeard Board of Trade taking the initiative in the matâ€" ter, another effort is to be made to induce the CN.R. management to set back the departure of the regular evenâ€" ing train from Toronto for the Temâ€" iskaming district an hour and a half to 11 p.m., instead of 9.30, as at present. The Asscociated Boards of Trade, toâ€" gether with the various local boards, is to be asked to endorse a resolution being prepared for circulation on this subject. It is claimed that the 90 minâ€" utes could be made up between Toronto and North Bay, and that running times on the T. N. O. would not be changâ€" ed, Attempts have been made in the past to secure this change, and now it is to be urged again that, if the later hour of departure can be found pracâ€" tical, residents of the North would be| able to attend theatre performances orl evening sporting events in the city and return home the same night, tead of having to cool their heels about Toronto until} train time. The New Liskeard board is also sending out to members and nonâ€"members alike, in both town and country, a questionnaire inviting recipients to submit subjects for discussion at board of trade meetâ€" ings there. Room is provided for four suggestions, and the covering note stresses the statement that the officers desire to make the organization a more active factor in the life of the comâ€" munity." Once again there is effort being made to have a change made in the Toronto train leaving for the North. The arguâ€" ments used in past times in the matâ€" ter are again being urged. There are also some new arguments being used to the effect that the T. N. O. time will not be affected and so there is no reason why the T. N. O. should not advocate the proposed _change. The New Liskeard Board of Trade is at present urging the change in time. In referring to the matter The Haileyâ€" burian last week had the following :â€" . N. 0.
