It was a genuine tost the alarm being given without any warning to teachers or pupils, and only Principal Day having any idea as to whether it was a real fire or simply a test. The classes all responded in very pleasing way, there being no confusion or excitement. The whole school was cleared in one minute and fortyâ€"five seconds. When the addition to the school is completed and the use of the other exits then permitted, there is no doubt but that the time for emptying the school will be still further reduced. In any event it would appear that the fire drills have attained an efficiency that provides for the safety of all in the school." Among the local and personal notes in The Advance ten years ago were the following:â€""H. M. Stevens left this week for a holiday visit to the South." estra selections by Messrs Bert Wilson, Jas. Reid and J. Gunliffe, and dancing, refreshments, etc. A Schumacher man was given a three year term by Judge Caron at Cochrane for highâ€"grading.

Such is life eference is mi this column to it would be well e undertaking the chrane.

There seems to be something wrong with this in view of the fact ith.zt the North Land towns still have nunbers o‘ bush workers who are ou! of work. Some oi the men from Toâ€" ronto went to jobs that were refused by Sudsury men, some of the latter | preferring apparently to Sstay in the | city on relief. FWrom references in The subdury Star it would appear that the city of Sudbury is not cutting off reâ€" \lief to the families of men going to the lbush. but simply reiucing the amount \of relief for the famiiy by the percentâ€" | age for one personage. Under this plan it would appear that it would be best for men to accept the bush work as it would mean much tb:tter chances for themselves and families. The famous British picture, "Cavalâ€" cade," which has made so strong an appeal to all wherever shown, is comâ€" ing to the Goldfields theatre, Thursâ€" day, Friday and Saturday, Oct. 19th, 20th and 21st. Competent critics and the general public alike agree that this picture is one of the greatest ever preâ€" sented. â€"It is another striking proof that a good British picture may be deâ€" pended upon to show the highest art and attraction. "Cavalceade‘" has shown in unusually long runs in all the prinâ€" cipal cities on the continent and in many cases has been booked for reâ€" turn ~engagement. It may well be termed an "extra special," and motion picture fans should make a special note of the dates on which it will be shown here. ~Further refgrence will be made later to this notable picture.

ONTARIO Last week the representative of the Tuckett Tobacco Co. was in town and Manager LAaprairie went into conferâ€" ence with him with the result that the whole affair was arranged. The Tucâ€" kett Company recently announced the plan that has been taken up by the Turkey Stag. Under this plan the Turkey Stag will simply collect the wrappers from Buckingham cigarettes, and tobacco. Suitable boxes will be placed in stores and other prominent places where the wrappers may ‘be dropped. The Tuckett plan is that Christmas toys and candies will be givâ€" en ‘for distribution among needy childâ€" ren under their plan. The number of toys the Turkey Stag can secure for distribution among the poor boys and girls in its district depends on the number of wrappers collected in the Turkey Stag boxes. In a recent interâ€" view the basis of the plan was explainâ€" ede Timmins Charity Turkey Stag always has something new and good. This year one of the features is to be the supplying of toys to all youngsters who would otherwise go without. "Lap" Laprairie, the manager of the Turkey Btag, is enthusiastic about the idea. He believes that there will be lots of toys:to supply all the needy youngsters of the town and district and that it will not cost the Turkey Stag or the people anything â€"extra to add this regular Turâ€" key Stag feature this year. How the plan is to be worked i plained below. Smokers to Provide Toys for Christmas Timmins Charity Turkey Stag Arranges Plan with Tueckett‘s to Send Toys Out with Hampers This Year. The index of our physical volume of business, which represents virtually the economic pulse of the nation, stood last February at 67.1.. For August, the most recent month for which the index is available, the figure was 89.9, an imâ€" provement of approximately 34%,. ITHIN a few days the Dominion of Canada will offer for public subscripâ€" tion the 1933 Refunding Loan, the purâ€" poses and terms of which will be announced in detail by the Minister of Finance on Tuesday, October 10. In this national undertaking an opportunity will be afforded both for sound investment and for public service, and I have no doubts as to the readiness with which Canadian investors will respond. I feel, however, that the 1933 Loan marks a point in Canadian affairs to which it is only proper that public attention should be drawn as a means of extending justifiable encouragement to many thousands of men and women who have enâ€" dured adversity with such admirable fortitude. With due precaution against unwarranted opâ€" timism I think I may say that in Canada we are now on the road to recovery. _ The road may be long and progress may be slow, but the events of the past six months appear to demonstrate with increasing clarity that the downward trend has come to a definite stop and that an upward trend is now in progress. The evidence of improvement is written in the statistical facts of our industry and trade. These records show that our general economic condiâ€" tiogo reached its lowest point during the month of February last and that today we are definitely above that level following a recovery which has been gradual but persistent and unmistakable. The most significant of these figures are probably those dealing with the physical volume of busiâ€" ness, wholesale prices and employment, and I give here briefly the record of recovery in each case as shown by the reports of the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. A Statement by the Prime Minister of Canada DOMINION or CANADA 1933 REFUNDING LOAN _ 100 Giten," «said Mr. Green, "orâ€" ganizations engaged in welfare work have to confine their Christmas acâ€" tivities to such essentials as food, fuel and clothing. Much as they would like to, they cannot supply toys for the kidâ€" |dies. This is where our Christmas Gift Plan comes in. "We â€"exchange the wrappers from our Buckingham products ‘for Christâ€" mas toys and candiesâ€"to be distributed by clubs and societies to needy children. "Last year the plan, which was conâ€" fined in its operation largely to Onâ€" tario and parts of the West, met with the coâ€"operation of hunâ€" dreds of clubs and societies. Thouâ€" sands of toys, boocks and games, and many hundredweight of candies were distributed through the medium of the l plar to deserving boys and girls. In many 4 smm c mm‘ s 'Icases where there was no formal club rCrâ€"society organized to take part in the plan number of the more publicâ€" minded citizens simply grouped themâ€" selves together and were thus able to take care of the Christmas wants of the deserving children in a particular district." puse of premium cards, we believe that smokers would endorse a plan which would result in benefit to others than the smoker himself. "And who are more deserving of assistance than the poor children in every communityâ€"the liMtle tots to whom a toy means so much on Christâ€" mas day? Not only the children who live in the poorer districts of our large citiesâ€"whom we always have with usâ€" but also those whose parents through unemployment are this year unable to spend money on gifts. "‘Too cften." â€"said Mr. Green. "orâ€" On Sunday last all of Canada that had not previously returned to regular time, discarded the daylight saving scheme for the year. There has been much confusion through the "daylight saving" plan of time adopted by a few places, but objected to by the majority. It is to be hoped the idea is now dropâ€" ped for good. "Lap‘"‘ expects to have his boxes and literature around at an early date, and is sure that smokers of Buckingham will give every coâ€"operation in the way of saving the wrappers and turning them over to the Turkey Stag so that there may be lots of toys for all the tots in this district this Christmas. The Road to RECOVERY The law requires that on all c of any amount ub to $100.00 a cent stamp should be affixed. P the cheques is only for a fractio dollar the threeâ€"cent stamp is sary. The duty of affixing the rests with the person issuin cheque. It is against the law to : | cheque without the required stam of course there are penaltic breaches of the law in this 3: Despite these facts there are people who pass cheques withor affixing the stamp required.

Our external trade figures are equally encouragâ€" ing. â€" Both exports and imports have risen, with the former showing the more rapid increase. _ As a result, Canada had a favourable trade balance of over $114,000,000 in the twelve months ended August 3lst this year. For the correponding period last year the favourable balance was onl3 $38,000,000, and in the two previous twelve months‘ periods instead of favourable figures we had unfavourable balances of $45,000,000 and of $103,000,000 respectively. All these facts and figures I think we may quite safely take as signâ€"posts on the road to recovery. In our further progress, no single factor will have more significance than the success of our national loan operations. â€" The recent 4% loan in London was a notable tribute to Canada‘s credit standâ€" ing. It was immediately oversubscribed many times and now commands a substantial premium. I feel satisfied that our own people will be quick to perceive that the 1933 Refunding Loan in Canada is at once a challenge and an opportunity â€"a challenge to aid in the restoration of business recovery and an opportunity to serve therehy their own and their country‘s best interests. Employment, although still at a regrettably low level, has, nevertheless, been gaining steadily for the past five months. On the basis of partial reports from industrial employers some 116,000 persons have been added to payâ€"rolls since last April. An estimate by the Bureau on a more comprehensive basis places the total increase in employment at 246,000 during the same period. Wholesale prices, in which even minor changes are highly significant, have risen over 9%, or from an index of 63.6 last February to one of 69.4 in August. ision with mo with ed in i2 DeSt Oof in is the climax o which the Ne Services were | onal hall here an this vear obsery nestness beca ifronting th o free as thi UNnere aAare many s cheques without first iamp required.
