formed Mavor but deni¢ H the transients must be blamed on themselves. If they stayed in the miunicipality where they resided they would not be allowed to starve, but they persisted in roaming the country. "There are some men not getting anyâ€" thing!" said Lahtinen. "‘The reason was snown Dy UThneir prolest aAgalnst deportations." There was a delegaâ€" tion present to back up the letter. A vyoung fellow who gave his name as Lahtinan, and who apparently does not dislike the sound of his own voice, was again the chief spokesman for what he called the unemployed. Mayor Drew said that the suggestion of g:‘ving two meals a day at any restaurant was not practical on acccount of the difâ€" ference in price. So far as possible the transients had been allowed the choice of where they were to eat. "You know that" the mayor told Lahâ€" tinen. The latter admitted the fact in part, but reverted to the statement that one meal a day was not enough. Mayor Drew pointed out that the transients had been warned not to come to Timâ€" mins or to stay here and the town was do:‘ng all it could do for them. The town could not possibly take care of all the transients that would come here under any other policy than that adopâ€" ted here,. Any hardships suffered by the transients must be blamed on theimnselves. If they stayed in the ons meal Drew poi had been with clothir couched in WOrKk that meal emnicyed. ‘Ihe request cluded the idea of single sients being given at l¢ ‘or that," said the mayor, "is because hey have refused work when offered." then suggested that there was o reason why the town should not pend a little money on the transients s there was money in the relief fund. You gathered money from the workers nd the mine put up dollar for dollar o what the men gave, so you must ave money," said Lahtinen. ‘"Yes," eplied the mayor, "and your crowd irged people not to contribute to the und." In an evasive way Lahtinen enied this. He claimed that all sinâ€" le men were being classed as tranâ€" ients and treated badly. "I think the tter should be simply fyled," comâ€" iented Councillor Richardson. Counâ€" illor Honey asked Lahtinen if his folâ€" )wers had not objected to the relief und and asked people not to contriâ€" ute. "Not the unemployed," was the esponse.

Cousins. The suggestion made b; some of the committee was that on relief work should make a point of first paying their rent. A maximum of $15.00 per month was fixed as reaâ€" sonable by the committee. Mayot Drew thought the policy had been tc consider groceries more important than rent. If a policy of paying rents were adopted now, he saw difficulty for the town when the relief fund was exhalstâ€" ed and it was attempted to resume the former policy. On being asked the question, Relief Inspector Dunn said he felt that groceries were the most important. Of course, rent was impor â€" tant, too, but he thought it preferable that a man buy groceries first. Referâ€" ence was made to cases where rent might have to be paid to save families from being turned out on the street. Also, there was sympathy expressed for (Continued on Page Eight) The second suggestion in Councillor Honey‘s list was that a definite scheâ€" dule be adhered to for relief. The reâ€" commendation was $4.50 per week for two adults, with 50c for the first child and 50c each for each additional one in the family, with a limit of $10.00 as the maximum to be paid. Mr. Dunn said that $10.00 was the maximum that had been paid for any one family for groceries. Dr. Honey, who is one of the counâ€" cil‘s representatives on the Relief Fund committee, submitted some recommenâ€" dations in regard to the relief work. First there was the matter of assisâ€" tance in the work for Mr. Dunn. It had been absolutely necessary, the committee found, to have an assistant for Mr. Dunn, and A. Shaw had been used in the work and found very satisâ€" factory. He asked the approval of 'council in this regard. H. Ogilvie asked permission to say a word or two. He had no fault to find with Mr. Shaw or any other applicant, but he said he had been promised the work and thought he should be given a chance. He had a larger family and had lived longer in the town and could not see why he did not have a chance. Counâ€" cillor Richardson said that Mr. Og:lvie‘s name had gone before the committee the same as the others. Councillor Maltais thought that as the majority of the applicants for relief were French, the assistant should be able to speak French fiuently. He found that Mr. Shaw could not speak French as much as Mr. Dunn could. Mr. Ogilvie said he could speak French fairly well, and certainly better than Mr. Shaw. Councillor Maltais said he would not be satisfied with any man who was not biâ€"lingual for this work. Mayor Drew said that Mr. Dunn had managed all right in this respect. In response to questions, the relief officer said that the work was chiefly clerical, and that Mr. Shaw‘s work was very satisfactory. Eventually, the question was left in the hands of the contingency committee to decide. The final payment for the ; of Tisdale‘s share in the in« was authorized, the town now the incinerator outright.~ the other municipalities he knew were trying to give relief to bonaâ€"fied citizens The delegation, apparently all forâ€" eigners with the exception of the two who had spoken then fyled out of the council meeting, Latinen calling out on the way to the door, "We‘ll be back at the next meeting and bring a bigger deputation."

With so many beautiful young ladies present this year the choice was specially diffâ€" cult, The guests present first indicated a number of young women as among those desirable as candidates for the honour of being chosen Queen Esther for 1933. To the seven judges there remained the difficult task of selecting the final choice. Eventually the honâ€" our was awarded by the judges to Mrs. Arnold Burrows, and amid the applause of the big crowd Mrs. Burrows was duly crowned Queen Esther for the year. To Barney Sky and his committee there is undoubtedly due the greatest credit for the notable success of the 1933 Purim Ball.

Will all members please attend. This week Mr. Lewis started in cearnâ€" est to train and drill local talent in the work of presenting "The Beauty Shop." Already he has instilled his own wonâ€" derful enthusiasm into the cast he has assembled and everything looks rosy for a striking success in the presentaâ€" tion here of "The Beauty Shop." Some of the dance numbers are difficult, but fortunately the tailent in this line is here all ready to fill the difficult places and this part of the show will no doubt be unusually effective, With the catchy songs, and the capable singers to present them, with the choruses and the other features, "The Beauty Shop" promises to be an extra special. "The Beauty Shop‘" proved a treâ€" mendous success in North Bay on Thursday and Friday nights of last week and it was necessary to put on a ten o‘clock matinee on Saturday mornâ€" ing in order to take care of the overâ€" flow business. A party is already being formed of North Bay citizens who will attend the performance here on March 15th in the Goldfields theatre. Referâ€" ence will be found elsewhere in this issue to the success achieved at North Bay, and Mr. Lewis thinks he can equal the North Bay success with the talent available in Timmins. An outstanding musical comedy stage success possibly the best ever presented in Timmins is now in the making, and ur}der the direction of professional producers of long experience a big cast and chorus of sixtyâ€"five ladies and gentlemen are now hard at work botn night and day with a determination of making this the outstanding theatrical event in the history of the town. The members of the Kiwanis Club feel they are offering the public something far out of the ordinary in "The Beauty Shop," one of the stage productions which made Geo. M. Cohan famous in both New York and London, and with its wealth of costumes, scenery and lighting effects which have been brought here for this affair, there will be no need to go to Toronto, Ottawa or any other centre to see a metropolitan stage presentation in every detail. Mr. Lewis, the director, says he intends to spend at least one hundred and twenty hours in rehearsals, this meaning an average of eight hours a day for fifteen days, this being necessary on account of the many complicated dance nurmâ€" bers and the intricate work of the big "beauty chorus" of more than thirty charming young ladies. Reserve March 15th for ‘The Beauty Shop‘ Event on March 15th Under the Ausâ€" pices of the Kiwanis Club Promises to be One of the Biggest and Best Yet. The course will be under the direcâ€" tion of Dr. E. M. Burwash, who will alâ€" so give a number of evening lectures illustrated by lantern slides. Classes and lectures free of charge. The classes for prospectors starting here on March 13th will give tuition in elementary chemistry and geology, and particular attention will be paid to the identification of minerals. Classes for the training of prospecâ€" tors will be held under the auspices of the Ontario Dept. of Mines in the 1.0.0.FT. hall, Timmins, beginning Monday, March 13th, and continuing for eight days. These are the classes that have attracted so much attention and been of so much value in years past. The classes are of special benefit to all who wish to learn the prospectâ€" ing game and also to those already actively engaged in the work of the prospector. Indeed, some of the oldâ€" time prospectors, men who know their game from A to Z, make a regular point of attending these classes each year, and say that they are very helpful. "That is the way to learn about prosâ€" pecting," said one of them last year, when questioned about his attendance. He added that the way to learn prosâ€" pecting, like anything else, was to take every opportunity to learn about it from all angles.
