A most ap k tpr.(.).pl late $ well This play, entitled "Two Can Live," was given at the beginning of the proâ€" gramme and had only four in the cast. It was quite well done:â€"very short:â€" but the characters wellâ€"chosen, and fairly humorous. Two downâ€"andâ€"out lawyers have agreed to fire their stenoâ€" grapher, each leaving the unpleasant task to the others. The toss of a coin makes the single chap the #wictim, and the married ons fades out of the picâ€" ture. The stenographer imaginges that her employer is proposing marriage, inâ€" stead of dismissal, and finally lands himâ€"and after allâ€"if two can live as cheaply as one, and apparently one is living on nothing, we persume she was right, Which reminds us of an old story the answer to "Two can live as cheaply as one". One what?, and who wants to live cheaply anyway!?". Harry Martin as one of the lawyers was quite nochalant and at ease, and did his job with a fair amount of conâ€" viction. . Bill Hall, as the other lawyer, was also good in his part, and fell into the role of employerâ€"lover quite naturâ€" ally. Miss Iris Donaldson, as the visitâ€" ing stencgraphcr, filled the bill very nicely., and Miss Lily Brown had the "star" part and made the most of it. These four young actors deserve 2. word of enccuragement. For a first avtempt it was excellent, and no prompter‘s voice was heard all through the play. It was short, of course, ‘but it went over very The programme was rounded out by music. A quartette led by Mr. E. Andreéews with Mrs. E. Andrews, Mrs. Reynolds and Mr. Walker, gave "The Keel Row," and "Who Will O‘er the Downs with Me," were received with great applause by the wellâ€"filled hall. Later they gave "Good Night Beloved," The voices blended well together. Mrs. E. Andrew, who is a newcomer to the town sang in a very sweet voice, "Mcountain Lovers," and gave as enâ€" core *"The Lilac Tree." Mr. Andrew sang ‘"The Tinker‘s Song." G. Newâ€" man recited "In Trouble Again" and Mrs. Christie, whom everyone is glad JEWELLER AND OPTICIAN Phone 212 We have a large assortâ€" ment of toilet sets in sterling silver and ivory in different colours, each set in lined cases.

She gave an onâ€" The Timmins A.Y.P.A. then presentâ€" ed their play, "Auntie," which was a‘so given a good reception. This was also a play with four characters, and one impersonation, and was a difficult thing to do, but the Timmins young people tackled it well, and must have been gratifieq at the reception given them by South End folke. We hope to see more plays presented by our young people in the future. Th.s first effort has been so well received that they should take it as an enâ€" couraging sign. The election is over, and the results seecm to give satisfaction everywhere. Congratulations to Reeve Gallagher on again being elected as reove of this township. Mr. Gallagher needs no eulogies from us. His work in the past speaks for itself; his interests are with us: we know that the township afâ€" fairs are in better shape than ever beâ€" fore; and we also know that the tax rate this year was lowered, and a very great deal of credit is due Mr. Gallagher for that; we also have his word after e‘~ction that he will continue to direct affairs of municipal state with as much ‘nterest as ever, and that means "Gaâ€" lagher Efficiency." Dr. Harper is welcomed by both ends the township. He is new to us as a municipal expert but we know that the vote alone given to him proves his popâ€" ularity. He heads the poll for counâ€" Mr. George Helmer, is new to this Council but not new to the duties of councillor. He has served on two preâ€" vious occasions on the council of Tisâ€" dals. We heartily congratulate Mr. Helâ€" mer on his success in making the grade. To a very great extsnt South Porcupine cwes much of its farming and cleared land at the north end of the town to Mr. Helmer and his efforts. From small beginnings he has accomâ€" plished wonders and by his own hard work has established a dairy farm that is a credit to any community. And if his milk hadn‘t been gotcd he wouldn‘t have got so many votes. We can rely confidently cn Mr. Helmer making as good a job of our business as he has made of his own. Mr. Cooke from Schumacher came next on the list of elected councillors. Scuth Porcupine has reason to feel that the affairs of this end of the townâ€" ship are quite safe in his capable hands. Mr. Cooke has served with efficiency and capability in our interests for two years, and we can also rest assured that in this his third year of office, he will justify our confidence in him. Mr. Wm. McInnis is the fourth memâ€" ber of the 1935 council. He acted on the council last year, and we hope that his success for this year will be equal to last. Mr. McInnis lives in Gillies Lake, or the Rochester townsite, and is quite popular there. Mr. David Kerr, who did nog quite succéeed in being elected, deserves from us a hearty vote of thanks for his 24 00 400000000b tuth n n h stt past; services to the . townshxp of Tisâ€" dale. On looking up his past records we find that he has worked in our inâ€" terests since 1924 when he first was elected as ccuncillor. For two years he sat on the council and in 1926 was made reeve of the township, a positicn that he filled with efficiency and capaâ€" bility. The next year he ran for reeve but was defeated. In 1928 h> headed the list for councillor and was elected in 1929 and 1930 by acclamation. For 1931 he was again elected. In 1932 he ran against Gallagher and was defeatâ€" ed. In 1933 and 1934 he was elected again as councillor. This year, as the voting shows, he just missed out. But Watches These goods are manuâ€" factured in England from the finest leathers.

Only about 50 per cent of the total electorate voted at this . election. Strangely enough the man of foreign birth who sn1as earned his right to vote and has taken cout citizenship papers values his rights so much that he never misses voting at any election, but cur own Canadianâ€"sorn and Britishâ€" jorn leave the duties of the franchise too cften to somebody else to look after. In Australia (we believe) the franchise must be exercised unless good cause is shown, or a fine inflicted. We may be wrong, of course, but if that law were enforced in Canada, thinking people would have no cause to regret (after selection has been made) the way the ship Oof state is engineered, and many matters would themselves. Ourtbest wishes are extended to the reeve and councillors of the township of Tisdale for 1935. Only ons case was,brought up this week in police court..
