Due to the fact that this year will be Filgrimage year and Dominion convention is to be held in March, it was decided to postpons the provincial convention for this year. It was discussed from all angles, the ; speaker said, and it was to the advantâ€" age of Timmins that he, along with the ;other members, voted in favour of the postponement.

In a word that man is going to lose his home, all because the scheme of 1919 was not proâ€" perly studied, and because the costs of building material were too high. The same situation exists in many other cases.

Leibowitz is credited with makâ€" ing the rather unusual declaration that ‘lhe is withdrawing because he believes ‘Hauptmann guilty of the murder of the kidnapped Lindbergh baby. He says Ihxs conferences witkh Hauptmann in the latier‘s death cell convinced him of |\the guilt of the accused and therefore ' he wants no further part in the matter. At the same time there are reports that [Governor Hoffman may give Hauptâ€" mann further reprieve, as he wants ‘to question Dr. Condon ("Jafsie") in the case, as there are many points that ‘need elucidation. The situation seems | to be that whilé few doubt the guxlt | of Hauptmann, there are many who beâ€" lieve that there were others in the \game with him. However, unless Hauptâ€" ! mann gives assistance in exposing the it woud appear that no one else | is likely to be executed for the crime ‘in questicn.

The news from Trenton, NJ., this weck,. is along the somewhat sensational lines that have marked the whole Lindâ€" bergh kidnapping case from the beginâ€" ning. For a couple of weeks past there has bren talk about Samuel Leibowitz, noteq New York attorney, taking the Haup‘tmann case. He has made it plain that he would not undertake the furâ€" ther dtifence of Hauptmann unless he felt that the accused was giving him all the facts of the case. He has had a number of interviews with Hauptâ€" mann and now comes the announceâ€" ment that he has withdrawn from th> Along with the stories of serious losses in men and territory by the Ethiopians in recent days in the war with Italy, there comes the story of the discovery of a plot to kill Emperor Haile Selassie. The airplane used by the Ethiopian emperor is said to have been tampered with in such a way that it would have meant a serious crash and the probable death of those in the machine at. its first flight. ~The form of tampering seems to have been the work of an expert airplane mechanic. Investigation is being made in very thorough fashion, and care taken to avoid a further case of this sort.

The spea Moscos bla ceptions 01 There have been many cases of inâ€" dividual farmers or settlers in this part of the North making very decided bids for a share of the local produce market, but the renorts from Cochran»e this week record what seems to be the first extended organization by settlers in a large group to provids themselves with a full share of the extended market close to them. The case reported from Cochrane is that of the settlers at Moonbeam. The Moonbeam settlers have about ten carloads of potatoes that they are grading under the most approved methods. When graded these carloads of potatoes will be shipped to Northern centres, chiefly to Timmins. It is understood that particular care is being given to the grading and that the potatoes are of sp:cially high valus. Im such case the Moonbeam settlers will not only find a ready market for the potatoes this year, but they will also have the chance of establishing a regular market in potatoes so far as the Northern centres are concerned. This should be a good thing, not only for the farmers, but also for the dealers and the public, as it would seem to asâ€" sure quality at reasonable price, reâ€" duce transportation chargeé and esâ€" tablish a good local market. Moonbeam is on the C.N.R. line west of Cochrane and there is a flourishing community of farmers reported as deâ€" veloping there. Activity along the line noted means avoidance of the relief support that is handicapping so many other sections of the North, though the need for this relief is unfortunatel avoidable at present. The marksting plan, with specia phasis in the proper grading, has been advocated and urged by Pomerleau, District Representati Agriculture for Cochrane District if the vplan is c:f through this year it will mean a deal to the whole North. tatoes are coming irom Fauquler, Kaâ€" puskasing, Hearst and other centres along the line. Some of these have alâ€" ready reached wholesalers in Timâ€" mins. It is expected that about 15 carâ€" loads of potatoes from the North, from the area from Cochrane west to Hearst, will reach here this season. With proâ€" per attention to the grading the setâ€" tlers in the areas referred to may easily capture the potato mark:t in the Northern centres.

Dental care is the latest division of work to be attempted by the club.

She came to Timmins 16 years ago and has since lived here with her family. Her husband predeceased her by some years. Two daughters, Mrs. James Newton and Loretta, live in Timmins, as well as two sons. A fine programme has been preâ€" pared by the committee and will inâ€" clude the chaiman‘s welcome, a round table introduction, toast to the King, toast to all nations, toast to the gussts of honour, and wealth of stories by the flyers present.

Tommy Nixon will be on hand with his sleight of hand, and Douglas Jones will recite some Robert Service poems.

Prior to the entraining of the body at ncon toâ€"day for her former home in Buckingham, Que., brief funceral serâ€" vice was held from the Church of the Nativity this morning.
