They cooked a meal in approved Scout fashion and played several of the games Scouts have learned to enjoy. Try The Advance Want Advertisements Plans for the collection of old clothes on Saturday are being made by all the troops. The fown has been divided into sections and each troop has cerâ€" tain streets to cover. Scouts not in uniform will be given collectors‘ cards, indicating that they are members of a troop and are qualified to take the clothes to headquarters. These cards are issued for identification, so that no householder need be in doubt as to the ultimate destination of the clothes. Now it‘s Rover Scouts that are the newest addition to Timmins‘ quickly growing numbers of the members of the world wide Scouting movement. To be a Rover, the applicant must be over sixteen years of age, but there is no limit at the other end of the scale. Last Thursday a group of young men met in the Hollinger Recreation hall and decided to take the first steps in the formation of a Rover troop. J, <J. Potts is the Rover Skipper; Mat Gibâ€" bons, Charlie Abraham and ~Eddic Lacy are Rover Mate, Second and Scribe respectively. A plan for futu'e meetings was drafted and a meetmg called for toâ€"night (Monday). The Scribe was asked to write the secretary of the First Timmins Group commitâ€" tee requesting that the Rover Crew be connected with that group. *# . *..*®, # ‘. # ’000’.’.0 . 0..0000.00..0 0.0000 0 #4 0.0 0..... 0 0 . # The First Timmins troop invested new Scouts on Firiday evening when Lloyd Hornby and James Foresâ€" ter qualified.

Many of them have been recommended at former meetings of the O.E.A. The public schools may expect their changed curricula to be in effect this September, it is understood. The deâ€" partment believes that arithemtic is one subject of which not nearly enough is learned at public schoals and they plan to increase the time spent on that subject. Other important recommendâ€" ations will be made within the next month or so, it is said. There will be no drastic changes for high schools in the September term, it is said. The whole question will be very thoroughl thrashed out by a commisâ€" sion appointed to revise the curricula, and before the summer of 1936 should have their findings ready for the deâ€" partment. The fall term of 1936 should see the alterations made. Latin seems destined to go by the board as a comâ€" pulsory subject. This intimation was made by the deputy minister. Other more practical subjects will take its place. It is expected that a course in economics may ‘be added. 44 * Principals of the three high schools| in the Porcupine, W. W. Tanner of Timmins, W. S.

Great changes are coming in public and high school curricula in Ontario, it was predicted at the Ontario Eduâ€" cational Association meeting in Toronâ€" to last week.

"Is there any difference between a telephorte and telegraph company?" sasked â€" Chas. McKeown, chairman. "There is," said Mr. Cowan. *‘"‘There are two separate acts in the Ontario Statutes. One for telephone comâ€" panies, The other for telegraph comâ€" panies." Mr. Cowan summed up his objections as follows: That the agreement with the respondent telephone company and the C. P. R., had not ben validated by the Board as required by the Telephone Act. and that the Northern Telephone Co. had no right to use its lines for anything but telephones. It was bad faith on the part of the Northern Telephone Co. to carry on such a business without asking the agreement with the C.P.K.

Mr. Cowan informed the board that the Northern Telephone ‘Co had no power under its charter to carry on telegraph business and compete with the T. N. O. He sketched the growth of the Northern Telephone Company from its incorporation in 1905 under the name of the Temiskaming Teleâ€" phone Co.. and asked the Board to examine the original objects of the ccmpany and those granted subseâ€" quently. L. A. Landrieau, K.C., appearing for the respondent, Northern Telephone Co., contended that his compfiny had not entered into any agreement which had to be submitted to the board for ratification. He suggested that the Onâ€" tario Telephone Act only applied to companies transacting business strictly within the meaning of telephonic comâ€" munication. ‘"The agreement with the CP.R. is not within the jurisdiction of this board," he said. C. R. McKeown, chairman of the board, said the dispute was one Of grave importance and should not be decided immediately. A hasty judgâ€" ment might seriously reflect on the board more than anyone else, he held. He offered both sides the opportunity of filing additional testimony or legal citations which would assist it in makâ€" ing up its mind. ‘The T. 8 N: A thern Telephone companies within the munication C PH. is n this board, messages.
