Dodge, chief assayer at the Provincial Constable Strickland said that he and Royal Canadian Mounted Police Constable Warner seanrched Miss Dimick‘s house on September 9. It was located about a mile cut of town on the Naybob Road in the Township of Deloro. Receives Two Months Kathleen Dimick was convicted of selling beer, her residence was made a public place and thirteen pints of teer and a part bottle of wine were confiscated. She never moved a muscle in her face. Dean Kester asked: "It would be a splendid opportunity for someone to go in and leave something there, would it not?" The Crown and Mr. Kester discussed whether or not it was the Sergeant‘s place to answer such a question but the magistrate cut the verbiage short with the remark that he realized that anyone could have walked into the for the defence, Dean Kester, Sergeant PesRoches said that the hotel door was not locked when he entered. The door had only an ordinary lock on it and the clothes closet, in which the ore was found, had the same kind of a lock on the door. After the accused pleaded not guilty, Police Sergeant DesRoches took the stand. He said that he and Corporal Nelson, of the Royal Canadian Mountâ€" ed Police, searched Porteuca‘s room at the Three Star Hotel on August 31. While he was going over his personal effects Corporal Nelson found a small parcel of what they believed to be highâ€"grade ore in a cardboard box of clothing. The accused admitted ownerâ€" ship of the clothing and the box but said he knew nothing about the high grade. charge of being in possession of high grade ore against Adam Porteuca. The charge was dismissed because the Crown was not able to prove that Por teuca knew the ore was among his ef Frees Adam Porteuca of High Grade Charge "Maybe this high grade belongs to the Toronto Daily Star.

We doubt whether Brazilians have all the sheets, towels and otherâ€" cotton goods that they could use. while, a good cup of coffee is enjoyed the world over, and few cups are as zood as they might be. Brazil has been cutting down coffee trees to make way for cotton, the cultiâ€" vation of which was restricted in this sountry under the New Deal. But this year good weather has produoed a huge American cotton crop nevertheless.

He was in one of the "iron lungs" when death came. Sudbury docâ€" tors earnestly denied the suggestion that the failure of the electric power curâ€" rent due to a couple of interruptions in the Hydro service had anything to do with the death. They say that while the power was off nurses and doctors were in constant attendance and that the boy was supplied oxygen by other means than the ‘"iron lung," and that accordingly no harm resulted from the power interruption. FPurther, the docâ€" tors say that it was recognized ‘that the ‘boy did not have much chance of recovery from the time that he entered â€"hne Sudbury ‘hospital, ana though no »ffort was spared in his behalf, it was realized that he would not be likely to survive in any event.

Ceuncillor Wren proposed a tcast to the volunteer fire department and the ehairman, A. Leach, proposed one to the chief. The Chief was ‘highly praised ‘by Councillor RDesRoches who said that it was time the chief had some medal pinned on him. However, he seemed just as pleased as though he was reâ€" ceiving the medals. At times, said Councillor Laporte to the thirty assembled firemen, the work might seem monotonous but they had the satisfaction of knowing they were serving and it was service that Quilt the Chairman of the fire and light comâ€" mittee, Councillor Wren, said that he considered the volunteer fire departâ€" ment one of the finest organizations in Timmins. â€"It was a number of men serving for a cause and purpose. If cities, as they grew older and larger, would keep that feeling of friendly coâ€" cperation that is found in a town fire department they would be better off. Chief Barland‘s speech was short and to the point,.> "It is a pleasure to see those two kids of mine getting those two souvenirs." he said. He recalled that Maurice Daher had helped® him win every cup and trophy that the Timmins department had captured at firemen‘s meets and competition. Fireman Daher said that the receivâ€" ing of the medal would round out twentyâ€"five years of service with the Timmins fire department.* He spent twelve years as a volunteer and thirteen as a member of the paid department. Fireman Pooley said he was glad to receive his medal. The uolentatlon was preceded by a tanquet and followed iby speeches.. It was held in the Legion hall. Making the presentation, E. H. Hill (former fire chiet and gonnected with the volunteer firemen ‘for ‘Over twenty years), said that the aotive volunteer brigade that operated wame ryears ago ‘decided to preserit volunteer firemen with long senviee medals. Since then the happy theught occurred that there were two former volunteers on the paid deâ€" partment and that they had not reâ€" ceived medals. This banquet was to rectify that situation. Mr. Hill made the presentation, ‘"from the active members of the volunteer fire department." .

The new provincial police recruit is the son of a former provincial police officer. His father, Frank VanNorman Webbwood, served on the Ontario proâ€" vincial police in Northern Ontario durâ€" ing the Haileybury fire and Timmins . This week the provincial police force at Sudbury was increased by a new recruitâ€"Robt. F. VanNorman. The construction menm are working on a Department of HMighways contract in relocating and grading 6% miles of the Ferguson highway, south of Cochrane, by which dangerous curves will be eliminated. The general foreman of the company paid off the two disgruntled men and the work on the highway resumed. The two men claimed they were performing ‘"‘*peaceful picketing" but as there was actually no strike they were made to remove themselves from the vicinity when peace returned to the workers. Son Follows Father on Provincial Police Force A second driver, securing himself behind locked doors and windows, sucâ€" cessfully passed the two selfâ€"appointed picketeers but nine others unwilling to precipitate serious trouble stood by their trucks until provincial police arâ€" rived to protect them. The trouble started when a Cochrane truck owner became dissatisfied with the rates. of hire being paid by the construction company and being joined by the driver of another truck attemptâ€" ed to stage a strike. Unable to gain the support of the other 14 drivers on the jcb, the two men turned to force and in an attempt to pull another drivâ€" er from his truck got the worst of the melee, and the man drove off to deliver his load of gravel. A despatch from Cochrane this week says that provincial police officers were called to squelch attempted intiâ€" midation of truck drivers working for the MacNamara Construction Company on the Ferguson highway a few miles south of Cechrane Friday. Four delegates were appointed at the meeting to attend the Kiwanis convenâ€" tion which is being held in Hamilton on September 19, 20 and 21. They were Frizt Weodbury, Jim Jackson, Jack Walker and Karl Eyre. Just Two Men Said to Have Staged Strike‘ at Cochrane The period ends with the fast of Yom Kippur, when, for twentyâ€"four hours the Jew may allow nothing, not even water, to pass his lips. After the fast a big feast is held, Rabbi Mcnson graduated in New York. He has been Rabbi in North Bay for two years and there is a strong possibility that he may remain in Timâ€" mins and conduct services in the synaâ€" gogue of the Sons of Israel, hergé in Timmins. The whole ceremony lasts over ten days. They are a tenâ€"day period of judgment on the world; what is going to happen; who is going to die; whether there will be peace or war. All man‘s activities are taken into account in the Jewish prayer which covers this judgâ€" ment. ' During the actual New Year cereâ€" mony the Shofar, which is a ram‘s horn, is blown 100 times. All prayers are universal. The Jew prays for the peace and welfare of the entire world. The Jewish New Year is, in reality, two days. One day is spent in selfâ€" examination and retrospect on the past year‘s good and bad activities and doâ€" ings. The other day is spent in lookâ€" ing ahead and planning an improved life for the next year. Most people celebrate the New Year on January 1 and usher it in with reâ€" velry and gaiety but to the Jew his New Year is a time of soléemn selfâ€" examinaton and selfâ€"judgment. The Jewish people do not claim that there have been only 5,698 years since the creation of the world, Rabbi Monâ€" son pointed out, so their belief does not conflict with the findings of scientâ€" ists who claim the world to be millions of years old. The Hebrew words, Rosh Hashanah mean ‘"New Year." The ceremony in connection with the celebration starts on the first and second days of the Jewâ€" ish month Tishre. The ceremonies this year celebrated the 5,698th year since the down of civilization, or Adam and Rabbi D. Monson, of North Bay, spoke to the Kiwanis club on Monday at their weekly luncheon meeting, on Rosh Hasâ€" hanah, the Jewish New Year, which was held near the beginning of this Western Canada SPECIAL BARGAIN ROUTESâ€"Tickets good going via Port Arthur, Ont., Armstrong, Ont.; Chiâ€" cago, I!1., or Sault Ste.
