As thne Women‘s Missionar‘y Ssciety advances in the study of Africa, the subject beccmes more and more interâ€" esting and the May meeting was a highâ€" light in this respsect. Mrs. Ramsay‘s talk on the study book, "The New Africa," by Donald Fraser, was delightâ€" fully informal and full of interest, while a letter from a personal friend in the African field read by Miss Susie Smyth gave many vivid glimpses into the life of a missionary there, added an intiâ€" mate touch and presented in a differâ€" ent way Africa‘s great need for Chrisâ€" tian leadership as a new civilization emerges.

Now in face of statements made y councillors at council meeting, and also published statements of a member of the Public School Board, it appears that neither |M'1yor Bartleman, nor Mr. Dunbar, had ‘the authoritative instructions of their respective bodies of authority to disâ€" !cuss officially such programme of reâ€" | construction, on behalf of the people, with officers of the Municipal Board.

The mayor says he understands they send an ad., to a local paper advising that they were lsxttmg here on a certain date and at a certam time. He is also quoted as sayâ€" ing, ‘It‘s up to those who are interâ€" tested to come. I wasn‘t advised.

Was it mere coincidence that Mayor Bartleman and Mr. Dunsar, chairman of the Public School Board, in presentâ€" ing themselves; executive officials; to the Municipal Board to discuss official business, that they introduced and inâ€" jected unofficial business into the disâ€" cussion; an idea for the reconstruction of Central Public School into some form of a town hall? Scme councillors, at the council meeting, apparently expressed surprise that such proposal had been advanced so far as to be presented to the Muniâ€" cipal Board without having been preâ€" sented to the Council itself. Do I interpret correctly the published statements, in last week‘s Advance, when I ask the question: if a reply skould be expectedâ€"officiallyâ€"from the Municipal Board regarding this mat‘er by either the Council or the School Board?

Some time ago The Advance ncted the fact that this firm had built a road to the mine properties there. Nz:xt, roference was miade to their purâ€" chase of an aercplane to facilitate the taking in of supplies. Now announceâ€" ment is made of the cpenirnzg of a gonâ€" eral store and supply depst at the mine, Real Piopeering in Opemiska District eral store and supply depst at the mine, tcsether with a restaurant and stopâ€" jing placz for those travelling to and from the more northerly mining fields. The Opemiska mine is some 140 miles from the railway at Rouleau Siding on the Trarscontinental Railway east of Cochrane. It was from Rculeau Siding that the wint:r road was btuilt last fall. The Hennesy Opemiska _ Supply Co. is the name of the subsidiary Company, which cpsned its store, supâ€" ply and restaurant premises recently havinz the distinction of being the first business place in the district. The new store carries a complete lins of general dry goods, grozceries, hardâ€" ware, prosp:ctors‘ supplies, etc., anud will prove a great convenience to prosâ€" pectors and oth:r engaged in the minâ€" ing irdustry in that section of â€"the North. Good results are ‘seing obtained at the mine, where there are absut 75 mssn employed, angd it is expected that there will be considerable activity on other properties in the district d iring the with the prospsect of an imâ€" portant mining centre for the futurs It will be noted that the Hennessy firm has extended its activitiss in ctaer directions as well, havinzg within the past month purchased a Bellanca plane to be used as a swift means of comâ€" munication between their various :Oâ€" cations. The ‘:machine is one formeriy cwrsd by the McIntyre mine and is fitted for the carrying of heavy freizht as we°ll as passengers. One of the memâ€" bers of the firm, Alex Hennessy, is a lizensed pileot and will operate the maâ€" chine with the assistance of a pilotâ€" mechanic who will shortly arrive in the district. For a number of years the Hennsssys have been ergaged in various phascs cf contracting, including timber, road building and freighting. Immediately on eccmpleticn of their road to the Opseâ€" miska mine last winter they transâ€" ported a large quantity of equipment sver it, while other work they engagend in the clearing of a townsis» at Mud Lake, Que. In the Opemiska arsa they certainly must be credited with being real pionsers in the opering and development as well as in the bus:iâ€" nes slife of the district. "What on earth do you think you‘re doing?" shouted the condszsctor. ‘"You‘re a couple of bars ahead of the rest of Hennessys Built Road to Mine, Now Open Store and Restaurant. Use Own Plane.

In face it would seem out of order for the Councilto treat it other than one more letter added to the off:ice files.
