The vision held by Geo. W. Lee, former chairâ€" man of the T. N. O., of the country north of Cochrane was a broad and hopeful one. The Adâ€" vance believes it will eventually be fully realized Already there are signs of its fulfillment. The presâ€" ent chairman of the T. N. O., Col. Mac Lang, also has the broad view. Living so long in the North as he has done, he could not wel! fail to be optimisâ€" tie and to hold faith in the country. The romance of Cobalt, Porcupine, Kirkland Lake, yes, and of Iroquois Falls and .Kapuskasing, are symbols of what may yet be done farther north. Years ago The Advance was enthusiastic about the country north of Cochrane, and the intervenâ€" ing years have shown no reason for loss of faith. Sixteen or seventeen years ago there were articles in The Advance referring to the mineral and other wealth of that country. The campaign inauguratâ€" ed by the Cochrane board of trade many years ago urging the building of the Temiskaming and Norâ€" thern Ontario Railway on to James Bay seemed to be well founded at the time and the years have but proven its foresight. It has always appeared difficult to The Advance to understand opposition to the extension of the railway north of Cochrane in view of the result of the other extensions of the line. When the railway was started in the first place it was condemned in whoilesale way, but the wealth of Cobalt made its critics appear foolish indeed. Each extension roused new critics who in turn were confounded by new wealth uncovered. The branch to Iroquois Falls has certainly justiâ€" fied itself. It is surely not necessary to refer to the Porcupine branch. For years the Elk Lake branch seemed to offer grounds for the critics and even discouragement for the railway itself. The development of Matachewan justified Elk Lake. So it goes! It seems to The Advance that only the most brazenly hopeless in this North may dare to fail to hold faith in any extension of the T.

As a result of the local campaign the town may boast of the fact that there has not been a serious motor car acciâ€" dent within the town limits this year. On the other hand there have been more than the usual The Ontario Highway Department, in coâ€"operâ€" ation with the provincial police, has commenced an active provinceâ€"wide campaign of enforcement of traffic regulations in the hope of making the highways safer for the public in general. In this connecticn it is interesting to note that a similar campaign was inaugurated several months ago Subscrip Canadaâ€"$2.00 Per Year TIMMINS®, ONTARIO Members Cansadian Weekly Newspaper Association; Ontarioâ€" Quebe* Newspaper Association; Class "A" Weekly Group OFFICE 26â€"â€"â€"â€"PHONESâ€"â€"â€"â€"â€"RESIDENCE 70 Published Every Monday and Thursday by: GEO LAKE, Owner and Publisher Subscriptwn Rates: Timmins, Ont., Thursday, August 29th, 193 Che Yorrupine Aduvance Uniteq Statesâ€"$3.00 Per Yeatr Many Canadian newspapers have been giving much time and space to comment on the stand of the United States in regard to that country‘s protest against the alien agitators working in the United States to create strikes, riots and revoluâ€" tion, and having the effrontery recently to boast about their success at a gathering in Soviet Russia, The newspapers appear to feel that the United States does well to protest Russian sponsorship of such unfriendly and malicious tactics. It is inâ€" teresting to note that these newspapers seem to forget that Russia has been fostering and financâ€" ing the same sort of subversive activity right here h ts .. zts t GR AVEL AND S ANDâ€"AI\D PLACER Timmins has good reason to pride itself on the number of beautiful lawns and gardens in the town. ~They represent much more than appears on the surface. They represent love of beauty. time, effort, patience, faith. It is no idle saying to state that people here have put their heart into their gardens. And the gardens are treasured because of what they have costâ€"in labour, in worry, in striving and in hope. That there should be some who through malice, or meanness, or spite, or envy, would wantonly destroy what it has cost others so much to achieve, simply shows that there are some people who still are far from true civilizâ€" ation. People of antiâ€"social tendencies still make life difficult. It may seem like a harsh thing to say but there is little hope for reforming people who have reached adult age and yet will adopt the tactics of the meanest form of sneakâ€"thief and vandal. They are about hopeless! On the other hand, howover, the people in general must be proâ€" tected against these antiâ€"social animals. It would be a good thing if some of the perpetrators of this contemptible form of damage could be brought to trial before the courts. Any good citizen who can help to this end owes it to himself and to all other social beings to give any possible assistance to this end. Antiâ€"social folk may be beyond redemption. but they are usually easy to deter by fear of punâ€" ishment. â€"A salutary sentence in one or two cases of wanton damage would fully curb the mean acâ€" tivities of these antiâ€"social beings. In Monday‘s issue The Advance referred to some gardens raided in the Hollinger townsite with flowers and vegetables stolen and other damage caused. Since then there have been further exâ€" hibitions of the same evil disposition on the part of some person or persons. The garden of a lover of flowers in town was visited and the flowers upâ€" rooted and thrown about on the street. The perâ€" sons responsible for this theft, this damage, this mean destruction are not fit to live in a civilized community. It is difficult to understand their mentality because they have so little mind to study. Some time ago The Advance had an ediâ€" torial referring ironically to the popular medical doctrine that criminal tendencies are due to disâ€" eases of glands rather than to innate wickedness or meanness. If this theory were well founded the person or persons stealing flowers recently in town and wantonly damaging gardens would be easily recognized. They would have such swollen glands 5 that they would be noticed at once, or else the glands would have disappeared so completely as to leave so noteworthy a depression as to immediâ€" ately attract attention. is a pity that there was not some sure way whereby the garden marauders might be recognized and brought to justice. It is a menace to the community to allow them to be at large. There are scores of people in Timmins and disâ€" trict who know by knowledge and experience what a wonderful field there is in the Moosonee area for the duck hunter. To the thousands upon thouâ€" sands of ardent duck hungers on this continent the Moosonee area would seem a veritable paraâ€" dise. Some years ago, before the railway was completed to Moosonee, a prominent Timmins banquet held recently at Moosonee. One of the speakers at the event was enthusiastic about the possibilities of making Moosonee famous as a reâ€" sort for Canadian and American game hunters He made particular reference to the sport of huntâ€" ing polar bears and walrus. He knew from perâ€" sonal knowledge and experience that these sports were available near Moosonee â€" that Moosonee miight be the base for big game hunters who would be delighted at the opportunity given them, if they only knew of it. ly will be won from the area north of the years to come, the other possibilities of James Bay area should not be overlooked. â€"In t issue of The Advance will be found a report o be overliooked. <In this be found a .report of a Moosonee.

Forestry officials and the provincial police in the North Bay area are psearchirg for the person or persons reâ€" [ sponsible for the starting of six small fires in the, bush in Fell township, north of the village of Field, on Saturâ€" day of last week. W. B. Greenwood, chief forester for the North Bay disâ€" trict, is convincedg that these fires were of incendiary origin. He said this week at North Bay that every possible step | was being taken to detect the person In addition to the six small fires reâ€" ferreq to, there were others in the North Bay area. One in the township o Pedley covered about three acres beâ€" fore it was finally extinguished. There were also other small firs in the townâ€" ships of Bastedo and Powell. These were put out without much difficulty. Then during the weekâ€"end heavy rains cams along to finish the work of the forest rangers. The rains on Sunday removed all present danger from bush fires in at North Bay that every possible step was being taken to detect the person responsible. The Ontario Forestry Deâ€" partment offers a reward of $100 to anybody supplying information which will lead to the conviction of a perâ€" son or persons to blame for deliberately causing forest fires. The fires in Fell tcwnship developed within a short period of each other and had all the appearance of being the work of some one running amok in the bush. The township has no residents and so no chance for accidental fires. The six small fires were dealt with one after the cther by the forestry rangers. None of them got headway enough to do any serious damage. Thereâ€"is a possibility that the fires may have been started in the hopes of creating employment for certain persons. This has happened beâ€" fore. On the other hands the fires may rasily have been due to the work of some unbalanced person.
