This is the route consistently upheld by the Northern Ontario Associated Boards of Trade. While this part of the North seems to be agreed on this route, there are some who think that a road should be built from the Sudburyâ€" Sault highway up through Chapleau to join the Hearst road near Oba. This would give the Sault an outlet to the Transâ€"Canada highway. It seems to be generally accepted as a fact that the preposed road along the North shore of Lake Superior is beyond reasonable conâ€" sideration, being unsuitable and too The Premier could not see the wisâ€" dom of the Ferguson highway from North Bay to Cochrane being designatâ€" ed as the Transâ€"Canada highway, beâ€" cause he did not believe tourist would start in at North Bay, drive far north and then across country over dusty roads to Winnipeg. "I would like to go on and complete the Transâ€"Canada," declared Premigr Hepburn. "I would suggest you see Mr. Gordon; we‘re ready to sit in on anâ€" other conference with him." E. A.

At this stage of the proczsedings the Timmins Lions Cltl» was called upon for a stunt.

Bradette, M.P. for this riding, made an able and eloquent address. He spoke of the notable work for human betterment that lay to the hands of service clubs and pointsd out that at the pressnt time with all its naâ€" ticonal problems and difficulties for the country, any combination of business and professional men could do much to give leadership and directicn to the country. President Roy WestOn read telegrams of congratulations and gocod wishes from the Lions International (signed by Melvin Jones, grand secretary); from the president of the Ottawa Lions Club; and from the North Bay Lions. On behalf of the: Timmins Lions Club, Lion F. H. V. Ball extended felicitations and best wishes,. He asked the Schumacher Lions to join with the Tiimmins club in ¢bserving the Timmins Lions ‘*charter night. Dr. Torrington, , Sudbury, extended greetings frm the Sudbury Lions Club and gave a highly entertaining account of how he was supposed to be lost on the road coming to Schumacher.

Gallagher, one of the Schuâ€" ‘macher township councillors, A. H. Cooke, in a neat speech gave official welcome to the Lions and their friends. He pointed out that the township was the second richest in the province and in the Dominion. He felt that in a cenâ€" tre like Schumacher situated in the heart of the wealthy Porcupine camp there was surely ample enough room for a service organizaxtion like the) Lions. Arch Gillies, president of the Timâ€" mins Kiwanis Club, extended fraternal greetings to the Schumacher Lions Club and wisheq them long years of success and service in the community. He pointed out that every service club must select the work it is best fitted to carry on. He extended sincere greetâ€" ings and friendly feelings from the Timmins Kiwanis Club and hoped that the two organizations would always coâ€"operate for the common good. District Governor at Schumacher Lions costly. It would appear that Hon, Mr. Heenan does not share this view but that he seems to favour this route. At any event he has designated it as part of the Transâ€"Canada highway though the Dominion government has ,seadlly refused to support it. It may be that all the keelâ€"hauling in regard to the proposed routes would eventualâ€" y work out in such way that Hon. Mr. Heenan will let the route usually called the northern route be carried lt.hrouzh. In such a case he is nearly !sure to receive the fullest support from tAll sides. (Continued from Page One) macher Lions Club said he felt it a privilege and an honour to extend greetings and good wishes to the Lions angq guests present.

Macdonald made appeal for active support in the coming "Adoptâ€"Aâ€"Baby Week," sponsored by Hon. David Croll. President Weston‘s address in reply was one of the outstanding numbers on the programme. He said that the club was dedicated to the service of others, to community benefit and to love of country. it was the duty of all to help those less fortunate. The District Governor deâ€" vailed the aims and Objects of the Lions.

He referred to the pleasure he felt in meeting an old friend, Stan Blake, formerly of Ottawa, and he conâ€" gratulated Schumacher on having such a high type cof citizen, He hoped for more Lions Clubs to be established in ‘the North, north of North Bay. He sketched the history of Lionism from ‘1914 when the idea was born in the mind of Melvin Jones, until toâ€"day when there are 27,000 clubs influencing the lives of millions of people. He pointed out that the individual clubs were in existence before the Lions Inâ€" ternational. The International, he exâ€" plained, was the servant of the indiâ€" vidual clubs, In Canada there was one man giving his full time to looking after the interests of the Lions in genâ€" eral way. The District Governor comâ€" pared the work of the Lions to bridge building, the simile being very effecâ€" tively used. Lionism, he believed, made men better citizens, better business men, better leaders. He thought the lighter features of the Lions should not be scorned as there was value and benefit in getting away from the serious on occasion. The greatest growth in the Lions, he noted, had been in the deâ€" pression years, 1930 to 1934. The deâ€" pression, he suggested, was not withâ€" out its helpful features, Among otherl things it had impressed the lesson that | programinc in which he and his fellow Lion did soms "broadcastâ€" Ing" with entertainment and topical alâ€" uisons.

A horseâ€"drawn fire engine was obtained to replace the hand reels, The firemen did not have their own horses, but had to deâ€" pend on delivery horses when there was a fire alarm. It was no uncommon sight to see two or three teams racing neckâ€"andâ€"neck along the street to be hitched up. The team that was ready first was paid five dollars. Later on, a shack was secured on Third avenue on the lot now occupied by the Dominion Stores. By this time the fire department had two reels. One iight the house where they kept their pumping engine was burned down. The man who usually slept there was foreed to make a hurried dive through the window to save himself. The worst part Cf it all was that the engine did not to Timmins, but to the Waterous Company of Brantford, Most of you have walked past the Timmins fire station and have seen the two fine trucks; but how many of you have given one minute‘s thought to what kind of fire department we had in Timmins in its first days and to how it has progressed to the efficient fire fighting organization it now is? In 1912 a group of volunteers met in a box car on a railway siding, with Jack Nolan as their chief. They had ten lengths of hose and one nozzle. A hand reel was part of their equipment. Covered by a tarpaulin, it and the ten lengths of hose were kept on the vacant lot that is now cccupied by the Imâ€" perial Bank, A steam fire engine pumped the water from Miller Lake, now called the "Cyanide," through a sixâ€"inch surface main. . intercst and importance.
