When talkinz of cold weather in Canada the name cof White River naâ€" turally comes to mind. White River for years had the reputation of being the coldest spot in the Dominion. The man who made White River so well known died last week in Montreal General hospital,. He was Joseph E. Depew, aged 73, citizen of White River for many years, and magistrate for twenty years in remote sections of the district.‘ The late Mr. Depew, pioneerâ€" ed the White Rive»r district in the days of the construction,. of, the Canadian Pacific Railway. He was the first railâ€" way terminal agent at White River for the C.P.R. The town was then a small place in Northwestern ~Ontario. Mr. Depew filed the famous weather wires from White River, "45 below," "55 beâ€" low," and even "60 below" being given out, and quite truthfully. So often was White River the coldest place in Canâ€" ada and so low did the. mercury sink in that town on occasion, that Mr. Deâ€" DEATH OF MANX WHO MADE WHITE RIVEKR WELL KNOWN P BP AP PAAA * D â€" * + > PA L â€"AC LAE â€"APâ€" BCÂ¥ AC CA F ry=a VAN EXTRACT . shon Bat Quick Dinner Mince Meat »15c¢ 16â€"6xâ€" Tin 28¢ CROWN BR.

McDonald, of Gold Centre, left on Wednesday of last week en route to Montreal where he had booked passage on the Cunard liner, Athenia, bound for Glasgow, Scotland. The late Mr. Depew had been residing in Montreal recently. There he was taken ill and an operation was necesâ€" sary. He failed to recover from the effects of the operation. Last July Mr. Depew and his wife celebrated their golden wedding anniâ€" versary at White River, where they had made their home for so many years and where Mr. Depew had tapped out his messages about the cold that mads White River famous. For twenty»five years the weather reâ€" ports sent out by the late Mr. Depew interested literally â€"thousands. All knew they were correct. He never faked. The truth was interesting and he sent it out. pew‘s temperature reports were keenly watched and became a matter of front page news in the dailies. He often had apparent competitions from cther towns, Prince Albert, Edmonton, Hearst and other towns vieing for the honours for lowest temperature. When White River was below the forty mark, the town could usually depend that its thermometers would go as ijiow as anyâ€" place else, but when it was a case of White River having a warm day, say only 28 below, then Hearst or some of the Western towns would be depended upon to try and beat the White River record by a "30 below" or so. When White River was doing its best, howâ€" ever, say around "55 below‘" or "60 beâ€" low" it backed the other places off the cold map. whole per cut each sliced per lb. is, J6¢ C CHOCOLATE Pudding 3 25¢ P. and G.

He conâ€" fesses that he favoured the "noble exâ€" periment" at the outset, but that it has completely broken down. He had nc _doubt in mind the fact that the Canâ€" adian provinces, after trying prohibiâ€" tion for ten years, abandoned it for some measure of government control. It must also have been brought to his attention that prohibitory legislation in the United States turred over great cities and large rural areas to the bootleggers and to a form of gangster rule which made the republic the least law abiding of civilixd nations. He could have quoted the late President Coolidge and former President Hoover t: this effect. ‘General iliggins‘ conâ€" clusions are all the more convincing because the great organization over whic:: he rules has the closest contacts with wihe downâ€"andâ€"outs of any religi~ ous orgrnization. It is the weliare of the mases which he has in mina. and that is why he now pronounces proiibiâ€" tion â€" impracticable,. His statemnt should prove an incentive to real tenâ€" perance peop.s everywhere to resumt their former educational campaign against the abuses of alcoholic drink and to coâ€"operamy: heartily with govâ€" ernments in the cu.tivation and promoâ€" tion of moderation and true temperâ€" ance." Salvation Army Head Says Prohibition a Failure ‘The cessation of activities at present, due to hoist trouble, will decrease to some extent the production during the last quarter, but, according to Presiâ€" dent R. T. Birks, the difficulty will be relieved in the near future, when new equipment will be installed and proâ€" duction resumed. Though less ore was treated at the Howey Gold Mines during the threeâ€" months‘ peériod ending Sept. 30 than in the previous quarter, the value of $289,600 was $1,8600 better than in the June 30 quarter. The production inâ€" cludes premium recéived in sale of bullion. Gross operating profit for the period for the September quarter was $94,500, compared with $92,000 in the preceding quarter. After the meeting closed, the room was cleared for bridge. â€" There were ten tables of bridge, with prizes distributed. First prize, ladies, was won by Mrs. Karl Eyre, while Kiwanian Wils. Lang, won the gentlemen‘s first prize. The ladies‘ consolation prize was won by Mrs. Geo. Lake, while the gentlemen‘s consolation went to Kiwanian L. Heil. J. Wernick, of North Bay a,nd points north.

This was one of the highlights in the delightful evening. . Another extra special feature was the story of the black cat as told by Kiwanian R. E. Dye. This cat atâ€" tempted to cross the path of Mr. and Mrs. Dye on their honeymoon, but fate in the form of a Pord with an elasticâ€" banded door crossed the black cat and One of the special Hallowe‘en party features of the evening was the disâ€" tribution to the ladies of what appearâ€" ed to be blank slips of paper, except for a number printed on each. The ladies were instructed to hold the slips of paper over the filames of little canâ€" dles furnished specially for the purâ€" pose. The slip of blank paper was found in each case to carry a message brought out by the heat of the candle. Each lady had to read out the message on her slip and much interest and amusement resulted. The Hallowe‘en party on Monday evening of this week at the Empire hotel under the auspices of the Timâ€" mins Kiwanis Club was a delightful occasion. All present thoroughly enâ€" joyed the cccasion and there were many compliments extended to P. T. Moisley and his committee for the artâ€" istic and effective way in which arrangements had been made. The room was tastefully and cleverly decor«= ated in Hallowe‘en style for the evenâ€" ing. There were over fifty Kiwanis and their ladies present and one and all fOund the event a most happy one. The regular weekly luncheon this week was transferred to an evening meeting and a Ladies Night and the occasion is generally agreed to have been one ol the most generally enjoyable held unâ€" der the auspites of the local Kiwanis. The menu provided for the occasion was worthy of special mention for its quality and its touches of the Hallowâ€" e‘en occasion. The service was equalâ€" ly good and the hotel management won many good words for their part in the undoubted success of the evening. The musical features included community singing and duet by Rev. Bruce Milâ€" lar. and Mrs, P. B. Carson that was much appreciated.

The Advance advises him to trade it in and get a new one. But in items two and three, the owner has suffered discrimination. The weather in this country makes it impractical to use either of these two licenses for the balance of the season. Mctorists in other parts of the province can use these licenses the whole year and they do not cost them a cent more. The first item looks like a total loss. The owner of the license, however, has not suffered discrimination in the matâ€" ter. He could have used the license more than once. No one in another part of the province has any advantage on him there.

President Roosevelt is reported as studying very carefully the extent of speculative cperations in commodity and stock markets. In the first place it is understood the study was chiefly inspired by the fear that stock market cperationsmight run counter to the Naâ€" tional Recovery plans or becloud the issue. Later the interest extended to speculation in general on the stock markets. Ontario legislation in regard to the control of stocx operations is understood to have been considered. Wall Street does not appear to be sure as to what may be done and so any vagaries of the market in New York may be traced to this uncertainty or at least blamed upon it. Despatches from Washington, D.C., suggest that financiers, brokers hnd others could not say whether the preâ€" sident‘s interest portended an adminisâ€" trative policy or not, although some close friends were insistent that legisâ€" lation designed to curb vioient price fAluctuations would be recommended when Congress met. The Ontario Farm Products Week was a notable success in Timmins, and it is interesting to note from a note from the Ontario Dept. of Agriculture that it was equally effective At pracâ€" tically every important centre in the province. Entrants to the window disâ€" play contest numbered 18 in Timmins and it is doubtful if any other town had better display windows during the week than the prize winners here. In Ontario there were approximately 2500 stores entering the contest. It is interâ€" esting to mote that of more than a mile of trucks entered in the Farm Products parade in Toronto, fifty were entered by commercial firms. This is rightly taken by the Dept. of Agriculâ€" ture to mean that there is an attitude of coâ€"operation taken by Toronto merâ€" chants towards any move designed for stimulating the sale of Ontario farm products, TALK ABOUT CONTROL OF STOCK MARKET IN U.8S.A. # \\\\\\\\“\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\“\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ Royal Studio S \ A, Tomkinson ®"* Phone 417 5 Balsam Street North IXXX****® FARM PRODUCTS WEEK IN QNTARIO GENERAL SUCCESS m\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\* 3 Our Christmas Gift to You .

"Cabinet Ministers would not comâ€" ment on the reported improved situâ€" ation yesterday, but there were strong hints from cother Queen‘s Park quarâ€" ters that when Mr. Dunlop faces the Legislature he will be aiming at a balâ€" anced budget. In view of the fact that provincial election will come some time in 1934, this balanced budget theory is given more weight. That Ontario‘s deficit has been cut to only $1,400,000.00 for the year, and further improvement in this regard is expected, and that the revenue of the province is showing an upswing is the cheering news given on Saturday by The Mail and Empire. ‘The article reâ€" ferred to reads as follows:â€" (From Huntingdon Gleaner) In 1893, Gaston Foy, a Frenchman received a life sentence to Devil‘s Isâ€" land off the coast of Guiana, for murâ€" der. His wife appealed to the court to have herself sentenced to the same place to be near her husband, but was refused. Disguised as a man and changing her name to Lebouc, she murdered the principal witness against her husband, confessed the crime and also went to Devil‘s Island for life, without discovery of her identity. She soon met her husband, but her secret was never discovered. He died in 1913. A few years later his wife, still passing for a man, was offered repatriation back to France but refused it, preferrâ€" ing to stay on the penal island near the grave of her husband. The truth of her sex was not discovered until her death last month, and although burial of women is forbidden on the island, special permission was obtained to dig a grave for her beside that of her husâ€" band.
