Stability of taxation is of greatest importance if the mining industry is to progress, it was agreed. Assisting the prosprctor to find new mines was considered also to be of prime interâ€" est. Two ways were set forth in which this could be accomplished: since a great deal of money is already being spent on education, further sums should be set aside for educating men to the job of prospecting; and comâ€" plete gsological surveys should be made of promising mineral areas to make the prospector‘s work easier. should Pave Part of Highway The highway should be paved from Timmins to Pamour at least, local Conservatives believe, The rest of the road should be of some good material, dustless gravel, or something like that. They did not agree that the whole road should be paved before the matter is thoroughly discussed, for it might be found that paving for the road would be too much of a burden. There was good deal of criticism of the manner in which Northern roads have been The ore body recently discovered lies but 600 feet from the line dividing Holâ€" linger ftom Moneta. Three drill holes all encountered ore at depths varying from 180 to 320 feet, apparently in the same body. It was a region never touched before, since there are no outâ€" croppings. The geology of the area is now becoming more clearly defined and a distinct swing of the orebody to the north, still in Moneta ground, has been disclosed. Other officers of the company are: L. L.

There are two shafts at present on the property but neither of these will be used for underground work, which will probably get under way early next year. ‘"There‘s lots of ore there now, we know that," Walter E. Segsworth, preâ€" sident and secretary of Moneta Porcuâ€" piue Mines, Limited, told The Advance last week just after another diamond drill began to bite through ore at the company‘s propert{f in the southâ€"eastâ€" ern part of Timmins.

Mr. Hyman said the company officials had been mystified as to what had caused the recent steady drop in the value of the stock and that they had finally traced it to rumours currént in Timmins. "These rumours are malicious lies," he said. One rumour was to the effect that Gillies Lake was milling tailings from the dump because the mine was out of ore. Another said that the mine was on the verge of reâ€"organization and that wages had not been paid for some tim®e. Tails From First Operations "The tails are those from the first milling operations," said Mr. Hyman, "when we were running strictly amalâ€" gamation and were never a‘ble to mak® fine recovery since we had no cyanide. We always had it in mind to run these tailings through. When we got our Those in the raiding party were Chief Hitch of the Hollinger police, and Proâ€" vincial Constables Peter, of Chatham, Hayes of Kitchener, Johnson and Adair of Toronto. It is understood that the provincial men have been in Timmins for some time past, investigating. Although the charge against the Klemovich couple is laid by mine offiâ€" cials, Hollinger men would not comâ€" ment on the case this morning. It is entirely a provincial police matter they said. Directors of Gillies Lake Porcupine mines have turned down two recent offers to take over the remainder of the treasury stock at a price more than double the present market quotation, Bernard N. Hyman, general manager of the company said toâ€"day in an inâ€" terview with The Advance. Kester, attorney for the defence, it was learned this morning. Schumacher High School Sports Day Postponed Schumacher High School sports day. which was to have been held last week, was postponed un account of bad weaâ€" ther.

These may be obtained at Taylor Hardware, Ideal Hardware, Schumacher MHMHardware or from Mr. Boudreau. Duck Hunting Reguiations Those who shoot before sunrise and after sundown may expect to be brought to court for violating the law. The game warden promises a close check on this practice beginning this week. Duck hunters are finding the best grounds in this vicinity this year at Moose lake, 15 miles betow Connaught. Frederickhouse has been disappointâ€" ng. The season is just now at its height, after October 15th there will be few birds left in this part of the North. Those who travel the bush these days with a gun and without a hunting liâ€" cense, commonly called a "gun license," are doing so at the risk of losing their firearms, Game Warden Phil Boudreau said this morning as he issued ancther warning to hunters. The occasion was a banquet at the Masonic hall when 60 teachers from points as distant as Sudbury and North Bay, and including all the towns from there up to Cochrane gathered in anâ€" nual conference. Mr. Henry, who came here from Toronto to address the meetâ€" ing, explained in detail just what the Pederation is accomplishing. Eighty per cent of all secondary school teachers n ‘Ontarioe are not members of the organization, the chief purpose of which is to protect the profession from being taken advantage of by municipalities and governments. Dictates to Boards The department of municipal affairs has dictated in many towns just yhat the board of education shall do with schools and their teachers, Mr. Henry said. In one town, they forced the rtansâ€" fer of first year high school work to public school. "We know that the prinâ€" cipal intimated he might convey cerâ€" tain information about how school afâ€" fairs were being managed to the parents of his pupils. The supervisor (from the department at Toronto) told him that if he did, he (the prinicipal) would be wthout a job next day." Pension Fund is Safe Recently the teachers‘ contribution to the governmentâ€"directed superannuaâ€" tion fund was raised from 2% per cent. to 3 per cent. of their salaries. "Some teachers evidently fear that this indiâ€" cates that the fund is unstable, and that when they retire there may be no penâ€" sion. This, we can assure them, is not the case; there is no cause for any such alarm. The actuary proposed making the maximum pension 50 per cent. of the teacher‘s salary, instead of 60 per cent. as at present, but this opinion was overruledâ€"principally, we believe, by the influence of the recentlyâ€"elected member of the Commission, who watches primarily the interests of the lower paid public school women teaâ€" chers," Mr. Henry told them. The Federation was considering this year becoming associated with organâ€" ized labour, and a committee was apâ€" pointed to consider the proposal,. Alâ€" though it has not yet been definitely decided, it is understood that the comâ€" mitiee‘s findings were against such a move. Gun License Necessary On behalf of the Timmins teachers hosts and hostesses to the visitors, W (Continueg on Page Two) Unlawful to Carry Any Fireâ€" arm in Bush Without a Permit. Salaries have been ordered slashed to ridiculous figures in some municipalities. In Windsor the board of education was asked to submit its estimates for the next ten years, Mr. Henry‘s address had many such instances as these in which the members of the profession are being "squeezed." Federation is the only organization through which they are able to present their cases to the proper authorities. Continuation, high and vocational school teachers in many parts of the province have complained directly to Premier Mitchell F. Hepburn about the treatment they are receiving from Onâ€" tarmo‘s autocratic Department of Muniâ€" cipal Affairs, Northern Ontario teachers learned on Saturday evening from F. H. Henry, secretary of the Ontario Secondâ€" ary School Teachers‘ Federation.
