It may seem unfortunate that tribute to Dr. H. H. Moore should be left until after he has lefl Timmins, but perhaps it is the finest tribute that could be paid him that this is what he would preâ€" fer. His modesty and lack of all selfâ€"seeking were among the thief characteristics that distinguishâ€" ed him during the quarter of a century of real service that he gave to Timmins and district. There were many occasions during the years that have passed when The Advance could not resist the opportunity to say a word of praise for the good work of Dr. Mcore in public way. His usual answer would be to emphasize something that needed to be said to help the sick or suffering or to advance North Perhaps the attitude of The Advance might be summed up by saying that while enthusiastic about any plan for training unemployed youth, it should first be carefully studied and arranged as to what will happen to the youth after the trainâ€" ing is complieted. If a method can be evolved whereby there will be any surety of the industries of the North absorbing the youth after the trainâ€" ing course, then all in the North will welcome the scheme in the sincerest and most wholeâ€"hearted Way. But to train young men for an already adâ€" mitted overâ€"glutted market is a horse of a colour that is not likely to make favourable appeal to the In the matter of training for forestry work, The Advance does see a field that may be opened. It is true that the supply toâ€"day more than meets the demand for forest workers. But if the Ontario government added to its idea of training youth in forestry, some extended plan for using extended forces of men to guard and guide the forests of the North, much good might be accomplishedâ€"in double way. With literally thousands out of work in the minâ€" ing centres of the Northâ€"with no immediate call for help in this lineâ€"where will be the places for the youth that may be brought North for trainâ€" ing? Where can Ontario or youth in general find advantage in a plan that has no restrictions to meet the facts? Despite the explanations and suggestions made in its second editorial by The Globe and Mail, The Advance cannot see its way clear to change its original position on the matter. The second editorial in The Globe and Mail would make it apâ€" pear that the two newspapers are not so far apart in their opinions, yet the distance may be greater than appears. The difference in viewpoint might be stated in this way:â€"The Globe and Mail is thinking of Youth and the North, while The Adâ€" vance is thinking of the North and Youth. This does not mean that The Globe and Mail is forgetâ€" ting the North, or that The Advance would sideâ€" track youth. Rather it means that The Globe and Mail is faced primarily with the problem of youth in the South, while the problems of the North take on a secondary importance for the moment, while The Advance sees first the problems of the North and does not believe that the problem of the youth will be one whit advanced by adding to the proâ€" blems of the North. In other words The Advance fears the chance of a simple shifting of problemsâ€" the South turning over its youth problem to the North, and the North having in turn to lay its own burdens on the doors of the South. In saying this, it must be remembered that the North also has its problem of unemployed youth. Those with vision have seen cause for anxiety as to the proper placâ€" ing of the growing youth of this part of the North.’ There are literally thousands of young men in this country who find grave difficulty in securing emâ€" ployment at the present time. Young men graâ€" duating from schools and colleges, young men acâ€" quainted with the country and its ways and needs, find it hard to secure their place in the industrial and business and professional life of the land. If thousands more of the young men are brought' here and trained at public expense to compete withi the youth of the North in the only lines of activity open, what is the possible virtue in such a pro-' cedure from the Northern standpoint,. or even1 from a provincial outlook? | In a recent issue of The Globe and Mail there was an editorial article entitled "Get Youth into the North." The editorial urged Ontario to folâ€" low the plan of Manitoba by taking a portion of the grant of $1,000,000 set aside by the Dominion ‘government for the provinces for plans for trainâ€" ing unemployed youth. The Globe and Mail favâ€" oured sending the unemployed youth of Ontario to this North to be trained in mining and forestry work. To this editorial The Advance made reply to the effect that while the plan might be endorsed in general way, there were serious dangers for the North, and also for the youth, unless the procedure were guarded by restrictions of several kinds. To this, The Globe and Mail makes answer in another editorial which will be found elsewhere in this ts cce m mascam mm mm e ! PAGE PoOUR | _ Many have noted the fact that this year quite a number of trailers have been brought into the |camp by tourists. Some of these trailers have l,been large and extended â€" regular miniature houses. This is the first year they have reached Timmins in any noticeable numbers. For some years past the number of trailers has been growing to rather troublesome proportions and constituting a problem in many places. Canada may need to take notice of the trailer problem before long. In 1936, there were over 7,000 more trailers registered in Canada than in the previous year. It is expectâ€" ed that this year there will be 55,000 trailer regisâ€" trations for Canada,. or 11,000 more than in 1936. was one of the men who specially helped to build the city of Timmins of toâ€"day. First and foremost Dr. H. H. Moore showed himâ€" self a medical manâ€"close to the ideal in the esâ€" teemed type of family doctorâ€"a surgeon of outâ€" standing skill. That type of doctor (and Canada is fortunate to have so many of them) makes the ideal type of citizen. But Dr. Moore‘s citizenship was not confined to his noble profession alone. He served the people for several years as town councillor. He gave service on other boards and organizations. He was one of the early members of the Kiwanis and a past president of that serâ€" vice club. In sports and in many other circles he gave his time and talent generously and freely. He was keenly interested in mining development in the North and backed many a venture in that line. From every standpoint he was a firstâ€"class citizen and it is fitting that tribute should be paid now to his outstanding service to this community. There is very general regret at his removal from Timmins. He left the town quietly and unobtruâ€" sively, as he served it for a quarter of a century. He is much missed in Timmins, and it is only right that this loss should be duly acknowledged. He danger of the disease becoming epidemic. Dr. Moore was on a wellâ€"earned vacation at the time, ‘but he hurried back to Timmins and the firm measures he took soon stopped all menace of any epidemic. Indeed, so broad and farâ€"reaching were the methods that he adopted that final result was that Timmins was practically secure against any smallpox epidemic for many years thereafter. It was in the preventative measures that he adopted that Dr. Moore gave the greatest service to the town. He enlisted the wholeâ€"hearted coâ€"operaâ€" tion of all the other doctors and of the nursing proâ€" fession and also secured public support for such matters as pure town water, safe milk, propér saniâ€" tary conditions. He was a persistent and able advocate of vaccination against smallpox and inâ€" oculation against diphtheria and his determination to make these precautions as general as possible tells much of the secret of the safety of the public health in Timmins. His unceasing interest in hospital work in Timmins was another feature of his valuable service to Timmins, and emphasizing the sincerity of his desire for the best thought and the best care for all who suffer from injury or. illness.
