The book is said to conâ€" tain pictures of gambling and drinking: and the pictures suggest drunkenn2ss in more than one instance.

If is needéfl to impress upon the generation of toâ€"day, what the Canadian troops accompBshed in 1914â€"1918 then there are several reâ€" cords available, but of course ther offiâ€" cial history of the war now in preparaâ€" tion by the Canadian government will fill the situation perfectly. Another means would be to ask the Canadian to prepare a record suitable for‘ the children attending schools at. the present time. It is quite possible :that this record would surpass any yet printed.

It must be clearly understood, however, that as the navy is the pride of the Empire, it would be better to have said stories censored. l Now we have started, let‘s keep the short stories going. I am sure my supervisor will allow them to be pubâ€" lished.

(Western) (Drama) THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO At full power, the device hurls sound into the air with the forcee of a 50 psund hammer blow. If the volume of sound were taken at the horn‘s mouth, it could be made just a thousand times louder than the roar at the foot of Niagara Falls (where you can‘t hear what a friend says, even though he shouts in your ear.) One of the desirable features of this monster is that it sifts out sounds usuâ€" lally classed as "noise" in the vsice. leaving only a pure tone. In this nan_ ner, it is able to pierce the roar Of flames or any Other of nature‘s comâ€" Imn noises. For this quality, it might D3 Ad ol t ts , 4 c 1 2c 20c sA 4 5tw be of great use in case of threatened stampedes or at riots. You might be apparently deafened by a sound such as that of an air machine in a mine, yet the mechanical voice would find its way through all the ctmplexity <f sound waves to deliver a warning. There is one probable annoyance that will result from the indiscriminate sale of these bullâ€"horns, (though it is entirely possible that sale will be reâ€" fused to anyone Oother than police, ‘army and navy), and that is advertisâ€" ing from the air. The stunt has been trieq but with little success, in using ordinary loud speakers, since there has not been until now a lsud speaker powerful enough to be of any use withâ€" in the height of which aeroplanes or ballocns are limited. Fancy what a babel of sound it would be if these Ibull-horns fell into the hands of some of those advertisers who use such novel methods! £ There really are some practical uses for this, the latest of science‘s contriâ€" butions to an already noisy world. For instance, the outfit was used to great advantage in a marine event last year. When, Endeavour met Rainbow, the United States Coastguard, Cutter, Tampa, carried a bullâ€"horn on her deck and when ships approacheq teo to the course (within a few miles), they were simply warned off. No excuse fir not carrying radio or not having a man on the job. Every man on deck heard that stentorian vzcice. That was the bullâ€"horn‘s first trial. And it was never, at that time, opened up to full power. Gone will be â€"the mournf{ful veice of the fog horn piercing the f'og to warn vessels of nearby shallows. "LOOk Out, captain, this here reef sticks out plenty AuUC Sounds improbable, but such a device has been developed in the Bell laboraâ€" tories in New York City is now in use by the United States navy. A man speaking into a microphone and his voice is heard for several miles, reachâ€" ing all within the radius, clearly and distinctly. The speaker from which the gargantuan sound waves issue Is a comparatively small, light aluminum affair and the equipment necessary to operate it is ccmpact. Should a person stand directly in front of the thing when in full blast, it would probably cause Gdeafness. It has been approâ€" priately named a "bullâ€"horn." Gone will be the angry skipper‘s dancing up and down cn the bridge shouting hoarsely through a imegaâ€" plione to his erring crew. He‘ll simply speak quietly into the device and a voice like that of Jove will fing its way the timid deckâ€"hand through storm and tempest. He might even shout his $s.0.S. should the radio room become flooded. (By "Shakes"), A mechanical voice louder than thunâ€" der! A million times more powerful than the human voice! Five hundred times more powerful than the usual loud speaker used in amplifying sysâ€" tems for outdoor events, such as the ssund system in use at the Timmins skating rink. %Try a Bullâ€"Horn if _ Wife Won‘t Listen of threat You migh Powassan News:â€"The News has had a number of letters from subscribers commending us for the recent article eulogizing the doctors who minister to the sick in the rural communities of this wide district.

The famous football and cricket inâ€" ternational, H. W. Hardinge, has been How strange that it was on March 16 ten years ago Dean left Tranmere Rovers for Everton to make his league debut. He had never been to London; he had â€" never seen a First Division ground, and here he was, a mere boy, taking up his place on the Arsenal ground! They said he failed, at least some said so, but Dave Reid, the Irish International player who was present, reported: "He did extremely well for a start." One paper called him a pasâ€" senger. He was dropped from the side; and had to win his way back. A seaâ€" son ended; and next season he totted up 60 goals and landed his side into a championship honour. It was against Arsenal Dean made his First Division debut; it was against Arsenal he scored his three to make his total 60; it will be against Arsenal on the identical dateâ€"March 16â€"he will celebrate his tenth year of service with Everton. People said he was "done" last season. This campaign all deâ€" fences have feared him; he has gained many goals, and has definitely shown a comeâ€"back many thought physically impossible., There will be great goâ€" ingsâ€"on on March 16 when Dean leads his men out to tackle Arsenal and to take his 10â€"yearâ€"old bow!

Last Saturday in the Walker House the National League met to deal with the application for membership from the England United Club.

Since that time England United have secured Varsity Stadium for the season, and there does not now appear to be anyâ€" thing in the way of the league grantâ€" ng the desired membership. Old Country Notes The time must come when Everton will need to display a centreâ€"forward stylist as Dean‘s deputy.

So far the DF.A. has not repented passing whe 21 years age limit for Jjuniors. The OJ,.RP.A. received from Sam Davidson a request that the junâ€" iors stay with the Dominion body and give the new law a tryâ€"out for one year, and expressed a belief that the change woauld be for the good of the game. This the junior governing body in this proâ€" vince will not do, and unless there is a change of front at Winnipeg a deâ€" finite break between the O.J.F.A. and the DF.A. will follow. The O.FP.A. and the T. and D. are on record as opposâ€" ing the change in the rule, which is less acceptable now that the juveniles have raised the age limit of their playâ€" ers to 21, and unless the Domninion body wipes out the rule there may be a break all long the line in Eastern Canada. The sooner the DF.A. realizes the situation the better it will be for Sam Davidson and Co., because many feel the time is now ripe to cut adrift from the Winnipeg dictatorship and launch an Eastern Canada Association. It would not require a deal of persuasion in most quarters in Ontario at the noment to tell the DF.A. to content itself with looking after affairs in the west, as there appears to be little knowâ€" ledge in that part of the Dominion as to what is good for the east.

The latest one is from Mr. Loney, of the Globe Pub. Co. He states that twentyâ€"six years ago when P:crcupine was unproven that the prosâ€" pectors were looking for silver, instead of gold. Might I say that this was true in the area south of Englehart and west thereof, but not northward. Silver had nothing to do with the discovery of Porcupine and starting the rush, and now T‘ll prove it did not. During 1906‘ when I lived at Cobalt there was news of a gold discovery at Larder Lake and also much farther north on the isâ€" lands in Abitibi Lake in which I think Noah Timmins and the Moshers were interested. Anson Cartwright, Wm. Fairburn, myself ang others left Cobalt on the contractors‘ train for McDougall Chutes near end of steel, and there we engaged Jack Powers, now of Timmins to freight our canoe and supplies to‘ Abitibi in March, 1907.. Arriving therel we visited the islands and saw the gold. We also prospected all to the south of the lakes until September when we paddled a hundred miles west to Nighthawk Lake. We knew thers was also gold at McDougall Chutes. While crossing T. N. 0. Ry construc-l tion at Driftwood River we were inâ€"| formed of the Gold Island discovery at Nighthawk and next day we arrivâ€" ed there and saw the gold. We then prcceeded down the lake to the outlet and paddled over two hundreg more miles to Latchford, and on the way we stopped overnight with Old Steve Laâ€" frican at Matachewan, and he told us there was gold there also. Old Steve knew all about what is Youngâ€"Davidson mine toâ€"day and he was at Porcupine seventy years ago, as was also Joe Mcore. When we arrived back at Coâ€" balt I was paid off and the rest of the party left for Gowganda where they helpeqg to start a silver rush, but I began to talk gold mines up north and| after a short stay I immediately went back to settle at McDougall Chutes and look for that mine after knowing there| was gold scattered over such a big area It wasn‘t leong till I went to Porcupine with J. S. Wilson, who had been a T. N. O. employee and who had seen Gold Island shortly after its discovery and that is what led him and his party to Porcupine and the first to arrive. We saw the Hunter claim on the shore staked during the late summer of 1908, and this is the first we knew of it or saw it. We used some of the tcols left there. In a few days Geo. Bannerman and old Tom Geddes arrived and then no one else comes till September. Let it be known that Tom Geddes had also visited Gold Island shortly after its discovery and he came to Porcupine in 1908 when the Hunter claim was staked anq then he returned with Geo.

If the 21â€" ft vein which I haq found in June had been staked we could have started the rush two months earliee and George and Tom would have had tw»a batches of claims. Early in September Geo. and Tom made a free gold find. They tell me, and I tell my boss and he sees it and immediately heads for the big vein and takes it, Shortly after, Geo. Bannerman returns from Haileybury and the rush began as the news spread like fire over all Ontario and hundreds leave Gowganda, and the T. N. O. Ry. began to do an immense trade. Along comes another Preston and stakes besides the Bannerman claim; then Middleton, Hollinger, Gillies and cthers who found their way to the Dome. So I think I have proven hat those who started the Porcupine rush were locking for gold and not silver. Gold was the main thing. It sseems so funny to me that these stories of Porâ€" cupine written by those who were in Toronto and New York at the time of discoveries never mention sne word about old Tom Geddes who was Banâ€" nerman‘s partner. I am the only one who gives him the credit he deserves because I was here all the time ang I know what was what and my writeâ€" ups are backed by $100.00 good till I go down where the gold comes from.
