Last week Sudbury people thought they had struck a real geyser in the city. A stream of water was shooting 50 feet up in the air at the corner of two important str:ets in the city. The "geyser‘‘ proved to be a break in the water main some seven feet below the surface. The break occurred in a "deadâ€" end" water line that had frozen, causâ€" ing an 18â€"inch split in the pipe.

The Premier stated that during the next two months, it will be found that the various departâ€" ments covered by the Northern Deâ€" velopment work will have been assigned to other Government departments. All matters relating to agricultural affairs and settlsment are expected to be taken over by the minister of agriculâ€" ture, Hon. Duncan Marshall, ang we are sure the minister in charge of the Agricultural Department will be found most energetic in his endeavours to carry forward any measure for the betâ€" terment of settlers and markets in the great length of Northern Ontario. We are not so sure about matters pertainâ€" ng to roads. The Premier says the Northern Development "has served its purpose." Maybe it has, at any rate the Hon. Pettr Heenan stayed with it until the province was committed to the Transâ€"Canada Highway with all the financial benefits such an undsrtaking meant to his own riding angq to his pals in the Soo. Many millions might have been saved Ontario and Canada had it been decided to partition the Northern Development Branch some time ago. In the meantime Northern Ontario wants road work, and wants it now., Are the members of all the Northsrn Districts going to sit tight while â€"the question of Northern roads is passing over to a department where the buillding of roads is of an entirely different grade to that requircd in th> "We are satisfied that the present widespread interest in mining presents an opportunity by the encouragement of capital investment to promote a reâ€" newed and more vigorous activity which should bhave beneficial and farâ€" reaching effects on the economic life of the whole Dominion. ‘"The industry is naturally gratified that the Dominion Government has recognized the outstanding importance to the Dominion of mining developâ€" menrnt. The announcement of the prinâ€" ciple of stability as outlined by Hon. Mr. Dunning is most reassuring. It will do much to promote the prospecting and development work so nscessary to keep the business going and to increase employment and purchases. f "The principle involved in exemptâ€" ing neéw mines for a period will no doubt be helpful and will provide a cerâ€" tain degree of needed stimulation; the proposal woulq seem to require some furtherâ€" adjustment in matters of detail to give it practical effect. "We are convinced, however, that in any plan for stimulating production with consequent increased employment it issessential to restore the rate of deâ€" pletion allowances which up to last year were found necessary to compenâ€" cate for the exhaustion of the orebodies, otherwiss the development which is sought is bound to be seriously hamâ€" pered. If this were done and combined with ~«the minister‘s proposal and his announced assurance of stability the increase in direct employment and all the collateral advantages would, we are satisfied, very soon demonstrate the <oundness of that policy."

If the Northern Development Branch had been properly handled there could be no reason for claiming overlapping. On the other hand, if the new arrangeâ€" ments make it still more difficult for Northern Ontario to get roads, a step will have bsen taken which will result in ultimate loss to the entire province."

Curtain Materials Curtain materials ars many and varied, ranging from taffeta silk to sheer plain muslin. Between these two extremes are scores of suitable weavts, materials and colour combinations. The Last Word The most pronounced style in the vogue consists of fancy coloured weaves in stripes or plaids for the curtains themselves. A vnlain material in the ground hue of the curtains, or one of the colours in the stripes or plaids, forms the tight or nineâ€"inch ruffles, which are edged with threeâ€"fourths to ons inch cotton frings continuing to carry out diversity of colours within the scope of those in the curtains. It will be seen that such artistic and harâ€" monious variety lends distinction to the curtains. â€" Gay Curtains One set of these curtains that I saw recently had light stripes of Chinesc red, deep royal blue and Chinese yelâ€" low, ranging in width from pin stripes to oneâ€"half inch widths. Each coloutr was always in its own precribed width and in satin finished weave. The wide ruffle was of plain yellow edged with fringe of the blue tone. There were gay curtains for summertime carrying indoors the colours of flowers, blossomâ€" ing in the gardenâ€"poppies, pansies, geraniums, purple clematis, nasturâ€" tiums, asters, dahliasâ€"in their varying seasons. "From this the department proâ€" gramme led to the opening of roadways in all parts, the mining and agriculturâ€" al industries being particularly well served. It afterwards developed that the department was entrusted with practically all development work in the North, and this embraced the building of highways . . . the Feguson highway from Severn to Cochrane and beyond, being the first major road project unâ€" dertaken. Later, the extension of the Transâ€"Canada highway through the North and the improvement of trunk roads were taken up to make the deâ€" partment‘s operations very extensive. "All this required large expenditures annually, and the establishment of adâ€" ministrative staffs and maintenance forces in a nunrfser of cenires.
