Both these speakers touched on the fact that good «citizens owe it to themselves as well as to the town to assist in every. move for the betterment of the town, and there are few things that increase the welfare of the community more, than effective administration of the laws for the safety and comfort cf the people in general. It is not as genâ€" erally recognized as it should be that the recent cleanâ€"up of the town ‘has a very decided value to the citizens in general. As one citizen pointed out the other day while discussing the increased Christmas business enjoyed in recent weeks by Iccal business places, some Oof the inâ€" «creased business enjoyed ‘should ‘be «credited to the «good work of the police in the recent cleanâ€"up. Money that would have been spent in previous months for illegal purposes was released for the use of the families of the men concerned, and sums that would have been worse. than wasted in seeking entertainment at low places was made g@vailable for the ‘purchase of goods from local stores. Blindpigs and disorderly houses for several months in 1934 took a deplorable toll from the town. One ring is known to have insisted on a rakeâ€"off from every woman in the trade, and apparently was able to collect. ‘this mean graft. The amount â€"of money collected in this, way would surprise most people. Thére would be equal surprise if it were known how .little of this money was spent in any way ‘of benefitâ€"to the town. Few of <the imâ€" ported women had more than the bare‘ necessities in the way of clothing, and only the heads of the ring lived well. Accordingly the illegal businesses made little busiâ€" ness for the legal business of the town. The "employees". y’hae for the settlers in the North.Land.

The new premier, Hon, Mitchell Hepâ€" There is a still more serious aspect to the matter, apart from any moral issues. The danger to public health from A!â€" lowing any of these crim»â€" rings to carry on is worthy of consideration. Diseases of most repulsive kind have been spread in town in appalling fashion. This is an-l other phase of the matter that will have to be dealt with. It is not likely that the police are lessening their efforts to protect the town. In any further efforts they may make they should have the full support of every deâ€" cent citizen. To weed out those ligble to spread social diseases is a task that the police will carry out to tnei best of their ability. In this they should be made to feel that they have the complete coâ€"operation of, every citizen. Rouyn, Kirkland Lake and other Northern towns are driving out the undesirables. In the past the practice! has been for the characters driven from one town to seek: refuge in a nearby place. With Rouyn and Kirkland Lake roused to determined effort to Gdrive out these: people, Timmins in selfâ€"protection must see that they do not take refuge here. Last week no less than ten undeâ€" sirable characters are said to have come to Timmins. The authorities are seeking to impress upon these people the fact that they will not be tolerated here. ‘The people can do much to uphold the hands of the» p'o{ice In this matter. No good citizen can afford to give either symâ€" pathy or support to these undesirable elements. The moral side of the matter should be considered by all who pretend to any sort of good citizenship, but apart altoâ€" gether from any moral issues, the whole trade and traffic is bad business from every standpoint. Every dollar takâ€" en in by the blindpig or the disorderly house is a dollar less for the merchants and others in legitimate business. No one pretends that these illegal businesses â€"can be enâ€" tirely wiped out. But experience in other ‘years has provâ€" en that they can be. kept to a minimum .and that the health and saféty of the town may ‘be guarded. With: the sympatheticâ€"support of the public the police may be depended upon to restore the standing of the town ot Timmins to the crder and decency enjoyed in other past years. It is admitted ‘that this is not a <pleasant subject to write about, but it is much better to write against it than to allow it to pass without the protest and the warning that the occasion demands.

The experiâ€" ‘ence in province has been such that the wisdom: and practicability of the bonus for â€"clearing land can not be doubted. The settlers themselves are agreed that the land bonus will meet their needs as nothing else can Gdo. Study of the question in the past has. shown that the paying of a land bonus will not be unduly costly. It will mean much less than the present expenditure for relief, divrect and indirect.

The correspondent argues that the success of the special low rates for weekâ€"ends and holidays shows that all â€"the public needs is a little encouragement to turn them back to railway travel. The Globe‘s correspondent contends that it is high rates that has been killing the railways, and that the mileage books would do much to stop bus traffic on the highways and increaged traffic would mean greater employment for railway employees as well as smaller losses for the railways. The proposal appears to have considerâ€". able merit. Perhaps it would not do as much as the corâ€" respondent hopes, but it would help a lot. It would apply with special force to the T. N. O. Railway. In this counâ€". try of big distances practically everyone could affofd to buy a 1000â€"mile book of tickets. In commenting on the proposal. The Barrie Examiner says that these mileage tickets would prove very popular and that once the public got in the habit of using this form of tickets, they would continue to use them and the railroads would enjoy a greatlyâ€"increased passenger business. | . A Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, scientist soléemnly announces that women are just as Clever as men. When will science ‘catch up to common knowledge? After all the ballyhoo the first few days .of 1935 do not seem any different to any other year. A local business man suggested last week that after all itl was possible that business would be as well off, or even betâ€" | ter, were there no Christmas. He based his argument on the idea that all the giftâ€"buying occurred in a short space, of time and that special stocks had to be carried and extra help secured to meet the demands. This added to the cost of doing business and in some ‘lines at least the business: spread over a longer period would prove more profitable. It would appear that this idea is not tenable. Were it not for: the Christmas spirit there would sbe very .considerably less buying in December than at present and the business in January would be little better, if any. The Christmas spirit tends to generosity and kindness and a very large part ot‘ .the ‘buying at Christmas time is due solely to this Christmas spirit of friendliness and good will. ‘Were there no Christâ€" mas it would be found" that a very considerable amount of business would be lost, enough to much more than offset any extra cost for the Christmas trade.
