The 'I‘immins Girl Guides, sponsored by the Timmins Chapter of the Daugh- ter; of the Empire, leave next Monday for their annual camp. and they are all equipped to have a happy and healthy time They even have all the tents they need. Last week The Ad- vance called attention to the fact that the girls were liable to be defrauded of some of the comforts of their annual camp because they were without the necessary tent accommodation. In previous years they had secured a big tent from the Northern Development Dept. but this year there was no such tent available. The Advance appealed to its readers to see that the girls had tents for the camp. It was pointed out that the Girl Guides were a credit to the town and that it would be too bad if they encountered Hiflicultes this year when they had done so well themselves. And did any response come from the appeal? Well, you can always trust the people of Tlmmins to be kindly, generous and helpful. The Advance had not been long published before a- gentleman called up Mrs. J. A. McInnis, regent of the 1.0. D. E.,to say that'he weuld supply a tent for the girls. Later another gentleman came along with the ofler of two small tents. So the Girl Guides will have three tents and so all the accommodation needed for the an- nual camp. The Girl Guides are grate- ful for the interest shown. 80 is the Girl Guides Supplied with Tents for Campigg “concouoouoonofloo oouoonoou Moo. coonoon .0 ”00".... coonofioonoooxuoonoonooooono.

New York was buying free- ly. not only American golds. but the leading Canadian; while the exchange compensation on Canadian gold sold in Great Britain was working to a new high oi 52.22 per cent. As a result. en- thusiasm for mining stocks reached a new peak, while volume on the Ex- change found a new high since 1927 of 3.30.000 shares. That compared with the high to date of 3,960,392 shares set on November 21 of 1927. as Milling Groin): Soar 'n'iesbovehendinsbtheone’lfie maul-manure putonan article yesterday in ward to the acti- vity in minim noon. and particuluriy Golds Ggggp Limelight “The day’svolut'ne has been exceeded on live times only. all happening in 1927. The previous high for 1933 was 3,008,000 shares on June 1. Trading was unusually heavy from the angle of individual transactions. as 6.836 deals were put through, of approximately 1,- 000 more than the previous high estab- lished on May 31. “High price for Canadian gold, which provided one of the two big pushes was traced to persistent buying of gold in London, coupled with a high price for the British pound in Canada. Montreal quoted gold at $31.48 an ounce. With Europeans buying gold. in London at a premium of no over om- ciai price, the quote became 1255 43d; and the exchange compensation stepped up to its new high of 52.29 per cent. compared with the previous high of 51.71 per cent. “Base metals were likewise in e de- mand. Nickel, Hudson Bay, Sherritt- Gordon and Noranda. were all bought freely, with substantiai‘ gains.

Traders are strong on the fact that export copper in the U's. as higher than the domestic. as export prices generally contrOI the price to Canadian mines. and the higher lever for export sug- gests continued demand on “world mar-9. kets. "Broad market action in the leading golds was indicated by gains ranging from 30 cents in Tack-Hughes to $3 in Dame. New York was pushing Dome; and since it lifted the issue -$4.50, the local price failed to keep pace. Junior golds were likewise in demand. In fact most of the heavy volume was in the junior and secondary groups.

The white metal was up sharply to 408 cents an ounce in New York, London also stronger.

William Bowman, of Kirkland Lake. was injured in an accident on the Fer- guson highway about eleven miles sOuth of Swastika when on Tuesday morning the car in which he was riding crashed into the ditch. The injuries sustained by Mr. Bowman were such that it was necessary to hurry him to the Red Cross hospital at' Kirkland Lake. It was found that the most serious injury he sustained was a gash on his head. This gash was deep and long, requiring no less than fifteen stitches to com- pletely close the wound. Bowman, in company with William Brockenshire and Elmer * Armstrong. both of Kirkland Lake, Was assisting in bringing a stalled car into town, Bowâ€" man was steering the disabled mach- ine. 'while Armstrong was driving the front machine. An alleged defect in the steering gear of the second car‘ threw-it suddenly into the ditch while both cars were travelling at a fair rate of sspeed. Brockenshire who was also an occupant of the ditched machine, escaped injury. Kirkland Lake Resident Injured in Auto Crash There will be very general regret and sorrow at the recent death of Kenneth Horner who was highly regarded and popular in Timmins.

The funeral was held on July 6th, there being a short service at the home of his aunt, Mrs. Wm. mm the ser- vice being conducted by Rev. Canon Cushing.

Kirkland Lake Winner of the Ball Game Yesterday Timmins baseball team journeyed to Kirkland Lake yesterday and played ball there in the Temiskaming league series. The game was won by Kirkland Lake‘and the score was 6 to 1. But the game was not the sort that the score would indicate. As a matter of fact Kirkland Lake got all its runs in the first frame andwere shut out for the rest of the game. After the first in- nings Timinins played nice ball; It lcc-ked simply like some bad luck in the opening stanza and a team that can carry on effectively after that open- ing ill-luck certainly shows the right spirit.

HOW WOULD YOU LIKE THIS SOVIET‘LOVE stony FILM? ,Atlant'io Monthly; A typical film in Moscow last year had for its principal characters a yzung Communist and a factory girl with whom he was in love. Eventually the man persuaded the girl to quit the. factory and live with him. This, as the captions pointed out. was an outrageously scandalous thing for her to do, not because the young couple had entered into a forbidden relation- ship, fsr they had duly visited the Bur- eau for the Registration of Marriages and Divorces. but the girl had “deserted her proletarian post” for a life of. ignoble domestic ease. Gradually her conscience began to torment her as she thought of her untended machine; in the end she abandoned the unworthy young Communist who had seduced her and returned to her workbench. Whereupcn there was an extraordinary 'rise in the factory’s production figures and an equally remarkable decline in the percentage of waste and breakage. In view of the case of the gentleman at the Buffalo Ankerite who attempted to get a bear full recently; as noted in another column of this issue, thefollow- ing letter from The Montreal Star on the general subject of other animals than man getting intoxicated may be of interest :â€" Sir,â€"-The item. in your paper on Mon- day about tipsy chickens leading to the discovery of illicit alcohol in a MOntreal yard reminded me of several similar cases. . In Minnesota about ten years ago a farmer sent for the vet as his cow was sick, obviously sick and groaning into the bargain. The vet went over the cf “mocnshine” and water had seeped to me surrounding grass, thua making the cow intoxicated. About Other Animals Than Man Getting Intoxicated In my youth I recall that flock of geese in Lcuth, Ireland. became drunk by cansuming cider which seeped from a defective barrel. They waddled tip- sily on the village green. executing comical gestures, rather like slow-mo- ticn pictures. it is shared by the butt; creation. Birds and beasts get drunk ‘but do fishes or reptiles?

PORCUPINE PROGRESSIVE ‘IN THE MATTER OF PLAYGROUNDS Writing 1n his column Of “Sporto- logy." this week “Observer,” sports commentator for Thé North Bay. Nug- get. says:â€" “Together with being the “hard times era." the past two or three years have earned distinction iin Northern 0n- taro as the “period of playground im- provements." In this stretch of time a number of communities has “gone mo- dern,” in the way of providing suitable facilities for promoting athletics. North Bay, Sudbury, Schumacher and Timmins rank with the progressive. These and other Northern centers have performed or are doing worthy works in the way of improving playground facilities. The Schumacher effort was crowned on Friday last when a modern athletic field and playground resulting from the enterprise of the employees of the McIntyre Mine and generosity of the mine, management was formally opened,” SAMMY ROTHSCHILD, SUDBURY, . MARRIED ATQSUDBURY, JULY 11 Many in Timmins, especially those interested in baseball, hockey and other sports, know Sammy Rothschild, of Sudbury, and so will be interested in the account of his wedding last week. He was married on July 11th, to Miss Eva Yackman, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. Yackman, of Sudbury. Miss Yackman wos on the teaching staff of the Sudbury publc schools. The groom is well known in sporting circles all through the North and in recent years has even mere than a Northern fame. He was a player on the Sudbury Cub Wolves and then went with the Hamilton Tigers. Later he entered professional hockey With the Montreal Maroons and New York Americans. Two years ago he re- turned to 'Sudbury td‘ coach the Sud- .bury Cub Wolves who won the Me- orial Cup .and the amateur junior ockey championship of Canada.
