The new deepn shaft is now at 4875 fset and is being sunk at the rate of about 80 every four weeks. Th cutting of stations usually takes two or three weeks, so that it will actually take more than four months to reach the mile.

Simpson, well as some lv The initial meeting of the bakers was held at the Pionesr hotel on Saturday |evening with only fuour firms of the district not present. It was agreed to i proceed with the business of getting a strong organization ready to act. The Advance has been ii]ven to unâ€" derstand on more than e occasion from local bakers that it is not direct competition among themselves that has led to price cutting but rather a form of dictation from others concerned in the hardling of the product. A special booth has been erected at the store of Sam Bucovetsky on Third aveâ€" nue for the sale of the seals. Mr. Bucoâ€" vetsky offered not only the floor space but also arranged to have someone in charge of the booth. In the meantime, all banks district have been provided with and will have them avaiiable who wish to buy. The baking industry of the district is being organized at present, to fall in line with a similar movement which is extending from coast to coast in Canada. The object is to better condiâ€" tions for everyone concernedâ€"employer and employee. Price cutting will become a thing of the past if proper coâ€"operaâ€" tion of all the bakers of the Porcupine is received, it is believed. "Conditions in the baking industry have been terrible during the past few years," cne baker told The Advance toâ€" day. "Wages have been practically noâ€" thing to what they should have been. Price cutting has been responsible for that Booth for the Sale of Christmas Seals Plan to Protect Themselves from â€" Unfair Dictation, and to Make Better Wages Possible. An excellent programme has been arranged for the occasion, it is reported. The Tuxis Grads, newest organizaâ€" ticn of Timmins young men, will hold its first of a regular series of dinner meetings at the Green Apple Pie this evening. Tickets are available from. members of the executive or from P. T. Moisley. Bakers of District Form Organization No estimate of the damage could be obtained from the T. N. O. The train involved was the daily fast freight and it had left Porquis Junction at 6.05 a.m. with 32 loaded cars of merâ€" chandise. This is the first time since the inauguration of the fast freight service from Toronto that local firms have been in any way inconvenienced. Dinner Meeting Toâ€"Night of Timmins Tuxis Grads An auxiliary crane was despatched from Cochrane immediately news of the derailment was received on Friday morning. The crew did good work in gotting the line cleared as quickly as they did. Train No. 47 bound for Timmins on Friday from Toronto was delayed only two hours at the wreck until the line was completely cleared of the freight cars. It was able to proceed at 4.30 p.m. Aside from the two delays m:ntioned, passenger traffic into Timmins was as usual.

Train No. 2 ths gasâ€" electric, left Timmins on schedule. reached the scene of the trouble and brought the passengers of No. 3 on to Timmins at 10.15, a delay of only an hour and fifteen minuteos. A broken rail at Mileage 2 on the Porquis Junctionâ€"Timmins branch of the T. N.

SALVATION ARMY HOME LEAGUE SALE OF WORK ON NOVEMBER 28 Mr. Gedge was introduced by S. G. Powler and A. A. Rose thanked him on behalf of the club. Dr. Wilson Gives Talk Dr. Wilson of the staff of the Haileyâ€" bury sanatorium was a guest at the mesting. He spoke briefly of the work being done in Timmins by the tuberâ€" culosis clinic and urged strongly that every citizen support it by buying Christmas seals. The Lions Club here is sponsoring the collection of funds. The doctor reviewed some of the cases that have come to his attention here in the past year and a half and he stressed the potential good of temâ€" porarily removing from the community those who unwittingly infect others with the disease. Dr. Wilson also outlined the methods used by the tuberculosis institutes in Ontario to obtain sufficient funds with which to carry on their work. Mr. Oohmen, of Timmins, was also a guest at the Thursday meeting. Express Delivery Rig Replaced by Motor Truck From a mean temperature of 78 deâ€" grees at surface, the mercury rises gradually with depth until at the lower levels of the mine it reaches 127 cdeâ€" grees. The terrific heat under which the work of mining has to be carried out necessitates the careful planning of a ventilation system to make it possible to extract ore at all. Although it has been in operaiion more than 100 years, tne Brazilian mine is far from being worked out, Mr. Gedge told his listeners. The ore is almost constant in value at $15 a ton, from surface to the 8000â€"foot level. Officers and many salaried men of the mine are English, he said, and the colony has its own sportsâ€"tennis, badâ€" minton, cricket, football and so on. The speaker was at the mine for 15 vyears. .
