While the Ontario Government is spending considerable money on Northâ€" ern roads, talks grandly of paved highâ€" ways eventually connecting the main points, it is the feeling of the residents that the work is going far too slowly. They still point out, as they were pointâ€" ing out a year ago, and two and five years ago, that the contribution of Norâ€" thern Ontario and the Dominion deâ€" serves something better. They do not ask at this time for paved roads, but they feel, and we think rightly, that they should be givenâ€"and that without delayâ€"smooth, dustless gravel roads from town to town, and . serviceable working roads into the new mining areas. That is not an unreasonable proposition. The North is annovyed, too, and not unnaturally, when it sees by the papers that Ontario can find millions for building fourâ€"lane highways in old Onâ€" tario. It feels that the older areas have fared not badly in road expenditures, that they might get along with existâ€" ing facilities for a time while the newer sections of the province catch up. So much of our wealth comes from the Nonth, so greatly does our common welfare depend upon mineral producâ€" tion in that area and the extension and development of that source of wealth, that it is as unwise as it is unjust to deny the North its necessary and imâ€" perative equipment of decent roads. Cabinet ministers who have visited the North have admitted that a real grievâ€" ance exists, promise action, but apparâ€" ently practical steps are slow and haltâ€" ing. It is not to the credit of the proâ€" vince as a whole that such a condition should continue. A prospector for the past 35 years, he staked out and was part owner in the Norquest mining property. He was also one of the discoverers of the now faâ€" mous Temiskaming and Hudson Bay Mines. | TrTy The Advance Want Advertisements A ‘band will be in attendance and there will be clowns, balloons and genâ€" eral merriment.

(From Ottawa Journal) Mr. H., W.

In the game toâ€"morrow night the Legion Stars will endeavour to oust the Lions. "War on donkeys," as it were. This fact alone should tempt everyone to go to the game, but the additional fact that the Legion‘s comic troupe will be in attendance should pack the park.
