* x 4 In view of the discussion of the matâ€" ter of Hydro vs. power at the annual meeting of the Northern Ontario ,.Associated Boards of Trade recently, the affairs of the Canada Northern Power Corporation are of cases where lines have been built that were not. paying propositions. On the other hand the Hydro expects and reâ€" quires all concerns at a distance to build their own connecting lines. This means an outlay for a small mine that seldom can be handled at the time the power is desired. There is an idea beâ€" ing spread at the present time that if the Hydro had a complete monopoly here in the North it would mean a big advantage to small mines and new proâ€" perties. The opposite would appear to be the fact, however. If all the small mines andâ€"new properties were required to build their own lines for electrical equipment very few of them would be able to pi#aceed. A difference worth noting between the Hydro and the Power Co., is the fact that the private corporation will build a line to a mine or other concern that has business to offer the company. The Canada Northern Power Corporaâ€" tion to some extent "takes a chance" in this, but against this it has knowledge and experience to assist to right judgâ€" ment. Even so, there have been a few after refusing for years to consider doing this. The field was too hazardâ€" ous, according to the Hydro experts. Northern Canada Power took a chance, however, and made good. It is interâ€" esting to note at the present time that although Hydro is in the field, it is the Canada Northern Power Corporation that is securing the new customers. The letter sent to shareholders each month with the dividend cheques, this month tells of Beatty Gold Mines and Kirkland Lake CGold Mines being added to the cuscomers of the company. To secure this new business the company naturally had to compete with the Hyâ€" dro. It may surprise some to know that the private corporation can comâ€" pete successfully with the governmentâ€" owned concern. In this North, howâ€" ever,. there are factors that do not arise in the South, and the private conâ€" cern has the experience and the faciliâ€" ties to meet the situation. It should be of general interest in the North to know that the business of the Canads Northern Power Corporation continue% to hold its own and a little better.

Going to a relative‘s home at the Old Continental mine, he suggested that some gas could be drainâ€" ed from his uncle‘s car which would be sufficient to enable them to reach home. A jug was brought and placed beâ€" neath the pet cock of the car. When the gas failed to pour out quickly enough, one of the party lit a match to investigate. Immediately the containâ€" er burst into flames. Percy Hoadley, owner of the car from which the gas was being drawn, became excited and wishing to save his car from damage attempted to kick the blazing pitcher out from under the rear of the machine. In doing so, he propelled the fiery liquid straight at his nephew, Hilyard, who recgived‘ the full contents of the jug over his body. Hilyard Hoadley was rushed to the Kirkland Lake Red Cross hospital, where attempts were made to save his legs, which were badly charred. It is feared one leg will require amputation. "‘The management sincerely hopes, that as partners of the company, shareâ€" holders will advise us of anything they may hear which may reflect upon our organization, and which will assist us in promoting the interests of the comâ€" pany." 6 Hilyard Hoadley, 24 years of age. and living at Kirkland Lake, is in the hosâ€" pital there with painful and serious inâ€" juries that resulted from a rather odd chain of circumstances. The ident occurred on Thursday evening last when a match was held beneath the gas tank of a car to see why the gasoline did not drain more quickly. The scene of the accident was at the Continental Gold idines, some miles east of Kirk- Jland Lake, 4 ‘"Work has been commenced on the construction of a mill at Macassa Mines, Limited, in Kirkland Lake. ‘"‘The Merchandise Department reâ€" cently conducted a very successful refrigerator campaign, during which sixtyâ€"four electric refrigerators were sold.

But Mike is not through. A wise guy suggests a plan to him for catchâ€" ing that bear alive. It includes the use of chloral nitrate and honey. Mike mixes the stuff according to specificaâ€" tions.

Mike, one of the employees of the mine, decided that he would get cne of th>se bears, and get it alive. He intended to hold it until the fall for its fur. The fur on the big dead one wasn‘t worth a mat, and Mike decided that the fall was the right time for prime bear furs and so he would catch his bear and hold him until the fall came along. _ _0 0. .0. .0. .0. .0. o. 0_ 0. .0. .0. .0. .0..0. _0 _0 _0 _0 _0 _0 .0. 0. .0. 0. .0. .0. .0,.0,.9,,9, $ C .c etecfactoctectectastacinet oooooooooooouooooooooooooo..oo.o.ooouooooo?o‘uoo???oflo.o%x Recently the members of the Buffalo Ankerite mining camp have been greatâ€" ly interested in watching bears {eedaing at the dump near the camp from the refuse thrown out.

Sir:â€"There has been so much misâ€" understanding and even misrepresentaâ€" tion in certain newspapers as to the resolution on social conditions passed by the Toronto conference of the Unitâ€" ed Church, that it has been deemed advisable and necessary for some stateâ€" ment to be made. The writer having been chairman of the sessional comâ€" mittee which brought in the report, and hence having first hand informatior with regard to the matter, and having no part in the debate, is in a position to furnish an unbiased stateâ€" ment of the facts. 2. The ‘‘conference did express the conviction that "the application of principles of Jesus would mean the end of the capitalistic system. By the capiâ€" talistic system is meant that order unâ€" der which capitalâ€"is owned and adâ€" ministered by individuals and special groups with a view to their own profit. The conference did call the church to unremitting war (in a moral and spiritual sense of course) upon capiâ€" talism so defined. It declared that while "under capitalism control is in private hands diverted to private proâ€" fit and aggrandizement, control in a Christian social order will be exercised for the general welfare and production for the ecommon good. 9. The suggestion that the resolution was passed on a snap vote by a fragâ€" ment of the conference, is entirely baseless. On Friday the conference, on 6. The conference did not, as alleged, endorse the C.C.F. or any other politiâ€" cal party. It did "welcome the appearâ€" ance of other movements which are seeking to establish coâ€"operation by political and educational means. We regard these as an expression of a wide and profound aspiration of the Canaâ€" dian people for just and orderly social change." If this is interpreted as reâ€" ferring to the C.C.F. it can also be apâ€" plied to many other movements such as the league for social reconstruction, the League of Nations Society, the Movement for a Christian Social Order, the Robert Owen Foundation, and other coâ€"overatlive movements, and cerâ€" tain‘ labour organizations. It would also, include such experiments in public cwnership as the Ontario Hydro, the Toronto Transportation, and the Canaâ€" dian Radio Commission. Surely, at this time when bloddy revolution is threatened from some quarters and feared in others, it is not out of place for a religious body to express a preâ€" ference for "political and educational means" in producing "just and orderly social change." 7. The conference has no legislative authority, nor did it attempt in any way to bind the conscience or control the political action of any minister or member of the church. The United Church is a democratic body and reâ€" cognizes the right of no conference or other church court to do any such thing. The conference expressed its Judgment, interpreting present social conditions in the light of the spirit and teaching of Jesus. The only authority any such declaration can have is its power to anpeal to the enlightened Christian ccnsciences. 5. The conference did not advocate what is known as state sOcialism, or the handing over of industries, transâ€" portations and banks to politicians or bureaucrats. It specifically disclaimed any such purpose. In advocating "soâ€" clalizaticn", it suggested that these inâ€" stitutions might in many instances, be cperated by those now operating them, but should be controlled not in the inâ€" terests of individuals, but for the public gocd. w 4.*+The conference did not, as alleged, advcocate ‘the confiscation of private preoperty such as homes, farms, etc. There is not a line in the report warâ€" ranting any such inference. 3. The conference did not denounce or in any way whatever reflect upon the personal character of individual capitalists. On the other hand, it reâ€" oeognized the ‘"integrity and ability‘" characterizing many of these men. In the debate it was pointed out by adâ€" vecates of the resolution, that many employers of labsur, of the utmost good will, found themselves thwarted by cur eccnomic system and compelled to do things (such as reducing wages and dismissing employees) which they greatly disliked to do. 1. The conference did not, as alleged, abandon. it fundamental task, viz., the redemption of individual lives, The fact is that the resolution in question was report number 2, of the committee on evangelism and social service. Reâ€" port number 1, dealt specifically and thoroughly with the problem of evanâ€" gelism. It asserted strongly the suâ€" preme task of the church in personal renewal, declaring that external adâ€" Justment is quite inadequate, at the same time pointing out that inward renewal is not authentically Christian unless it prompts social transformation. This report (number 1) was not reportâ€" ed widely ih the press. Consequently the public were given a oneâ€"sided view cf the action of the conference. 2. The conference did not dencunce or advocate the abolition of capital. It definitely asserted that capital "is a vital factor in the economic life." Rev. D. T. McClintock Deniecs Much of "In a Northern Ontario mining town which shall be nameless, a grsup of young men awhose identity shall also be shrouded in anonymity for good and sufficient livedtogetherâ€"for a period.. Today, seriousâ€"minded, mature business and professional men, they were at that time more or less irresponâ€" sible in fact if in their own estiâ€" mation. One of the crowd who has since become highly successful in busiâ€" ness, concealed a native financial shrewdness under a mask of buffoonery, which invited retaliation frtm alil and sundry. Withcut a great deal of forâ€" mal education, he was and still is, posâ€" sossed of a considerable ability to run a bluff and this talent he overworked on occasion. Nevertheless, while keen on the money trail, he had his blind spots and one of these was his deep respect for professional status. If a man were a doctor or lawyer his word was law to the naive young man. Anâ€" other failing was fear of disease, cver which he was inclined to be morbid and very easily joshed. "One winter the young fellow broke cut in some sort of a rash and worried about it considerably. On the insistâ€" ence of his living companions he visitâ€" ed a doctor, personal friend of this group. First ore of the gang saw the doctor and explained tc him that they wished a very serious case made of the trifling indisposition. So when the young man appceared, the medico pulled a long face and, after a lengthy exâ€" aminaticn, pronounced that there was D. T.

The most interesting section of "Grab Samples" in The Northern Minâ€" er last week was the account of how a group of young men in a certain minâ€" ing town assisted the d¢octor in the of a rash on a young man who had a touch of fear as well. This is the account as given by "Grab Samples‘"‘ last week:â€" Odd Kind of Jokes Often Enjoyed in Mining Towns the consideration of this report. The debate lasted until noon and was adâ€" journed until Monday. At the special request and to suit the convenience of one of the leading opponents of the resclution, conference on â€"Monday morning fixed 4.15 p.m., for the resumpâ€" tion of the debate. It continued until 6.00 c‘clock, and from eight to nearly eleven p.m. So that the matter was debated for about seven hours, The attendance, and vote was fully as large as upon any other question before the conference. It must be remembered that the Toronto conference has among its members a host of retired ministers, foreign missionaries, â€" nonâ€"resident, ministers and laymen from distant fields. â€" An attendance of fifty per cent. would be phenomenal. In fact, many important matters were decided on a vote only half as large as that upon this question. Moreover, the questions involved are in no sense new. Most of our ministers and many of our laymen, have been giving careful study of them. The session Wwhich carried this resoluâ€" tion, was representative of the memâ€" bership cof the conference as a whole, and there is no reason to believe that a larger attendance would have made any material difference in the proporâ€" tion of votes for and against. So it is clearly established that the resolution was passed: (1) after ample notice had been given; (2) after an exhaustive deâ€" bate conducted on a high level and in fine spirit; and (3) by a good repreâ€" sentation of the conference. It is hoped that this statement will, to some extent at least, remove misâ€" leading impressicns that have been created, and enable the public, to disâ€" cuss fairly the real issues involved recommendation, of its business comâ€" iY Noxâ€"aâ€"Pain T ablets Kills Pain «s for Roaring, plunging outboard motorâ€" boats, graceful yachts and the sleek, flimsy shells of the oarsmen will be aquatic features at the Canadian Naâ€" tionalâ€" Exhibition this â€"year. "One night, after the young man hact stepped out to see his girl, the others conceived the idea of doctoring the bathwater. They withdrew the pink mixture, filed the tub with cold. water and added a bottle of red ink. Next imorning, unsuspecting, the rash young fellow stepped in and yodelled the usuâ€" al prandial refrain, while the other ocâ€" cupants of the flat stifled their laughter in the bed clothes.

"Now it so happened that the affiictâ€" ed young man hated cold water baths above all things and it was only with the physical coercion and moral suasion of his roommates that the doctor‘s preâ€" scription was followed out to the letter. The early morning roars, gasps and splashings of the victim gave cheer to his companions, lying snugly abed. Being not without resource the young fellow conceived a notion whereby his matutinal tortures were reduced to a minimum.
