It allows each citizen the greatest individual liberty of choice, while preventing him from interâ€" fering with the liberty of others! The present control law of Ontario is a sound law because it is founded not on restraint but on reason! Recause it assumes rather than denies the citizen‘s control of himself! To date it has made a great progress. Yet for the good of the Province, moderation must completely replace exâ€" cess. True temperance assures libert v while it avoids excess.

This also eliminates the necessity of huving to first go to Porâ€" |quis Junction, before turning south, as |the road joins the main highway near Matheson. â€".1 turning the attention to western rcads, he cli§cussed the Transâ€"Canada highway, and stated that at present there was left only 131 miles to be comâ€" pleted before tourists could motor eithâ€" er from Sault Ste. Marie or by way of !Hearsr,. facross the Dominion. It is hoped that this highway will be comâ€" pleted by 1940. ‘ _ Seventeen and a half million dollars had been spent in the Northern Onâ€" tario roads, which is half of the total speni on highways in Ontario. This is made up mostly from gasoline Lax.l which amcunts to between 27 and 28 | millions per year, as stated by the Government. The substantial increase in accidents is very disquieting to the Motor League, but by a thorough search in statistics, results show that it is not due to the increase in the speed limit put out last year. The greatest porâ€" tion of accidents, it was proved, ocâ€" curred during the months from Januâ€" mm s + preparation of 175 miles of highway for pavemnm>nt, and plans for equipment to lay dust eliminating chemical on all the main thorcughfares of the North. It is thought that this dustâ€"laying work will be done someime this summer, which will prove an unequalled benefit to all motorists. It was also noted that during 1937, some 75 miles of paveâ€" ment had been laid in Northern Onâ€" tario, 30 of which had been placed around New Liskeard. For 1938, 175 miles of this highway will be prepared for pavement, and after it has proven it will be satisfactory, will also be paved. Work has been going on, whereâ€" by the highway leading from Timmins MWYW ‘ This advertisement is inserted by the Brewing Industry in the interest of a better public u nderstanding of certain aspects of the problems of temperance. Also for all members lezal advice to the extent of $500 could be had if needed. The membership ticket "inâ€" cluded an insurance policy with a valâ€" ue of $1000, which paid in case of acâ€" Icident. $10 per week for 52 weeks. He i‘cited many beneficial cases of recent happening, that were taken care of by the Leaguse. In conclusion he voiced his opinion that no other organization could offer such great benefits as were being realized by th> members of the Ontario Motor League. | helping the Government clean up such abuses as still exist. Assure your own freedom of choice by dlscourabmg those of your friends who try to turn liberty into excess! ‘The Industry therefore sincerely urges every openâ€"minded citizen to join in Mr. E. M. Paukert, manager of the Iroquois Falls division of the Abitibi Power and Paper Company, congratuâ€" lated the Motor Club here on their ) marked results, and offered on behalf ‘t/of the company any available assistâ€" .;:‘ance that they may be able to rend>r. %/| In the speech by Mr. A.

He also commented on the 1 ) results already achieved by the club. }"and felt that they otherwise would | ‘; | not have been taken care of, in giving / great credit to the officers who are ‘|carrying on this fine work. | â€"| Mr. E. W. Lancaster, who for the ]pasr. twenty years has been a member iot the Essex County Motor Club, and | is at present president of the Onca'rio‘ | 1 »**, wea" «e #* Motor Leagure, also gave a speech of y | marked interest. Mr. Thistlethwaite closed the banâ€" quet, hoping that happier and safer griving would be the ultimate result had by all, in courteous drivin>. And because it respects his liberty it can count on Ais coâ€"operation! Adding a little humour to the talk, he said that if this Motor Club could devise some plan whereby they could send a ladies‘ delegation to the authoriâ€" ties, where their problems could be results would be Oobtained cuicker, in that the men knowing that ladies have the last word, would not try toargue with thern, but would give in to their requests. He congratulated the Iroquois Falls Motor Club on having invited the ladies to their banguet, having added a touch which is missing at most events of this nature. In stressing the benefits of belongâ€" ing to the Motor League, h> brought to mind that included in the memberâ€" ship ticket was the available use of calling on one of the appointed staâ€" tions when a motorist was in trouble. During 1937 the Toronto members hadl mad> use of this privilege to the exâ€" tent of 21,873 calls, when their motors would not start. _ Lancaster, who is a resident of Windsor, stated that the league is opâ€" erating four information â€" beaueax around â€" Windsor, for the benrfit of tourists, and that an average of 1000 pzople per day for 12 months was the number seeking information. He felt that this was a record to be proud of, and that in directing American traâ€" vellers to se the best, told them of the beauty of Northern Onario. H» felt when he could state that the roads leading to this country were all paved, his troubles would be overcome, as most of traffic would take up this route. In concluding his talk, he hoped that all pedestrians would take the attiâ€" tude that they are just as responsible for many accidents in which cars are inveolved, as the drivers, and that the League was exercising every effort to instill this matter in the minds of all Cilizens. ary to April, and that the rate had dropped from 50 to 35 so far this vear. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCBE, TIMMINS, ONTaARIO "Over and over again in these talks he insisted that the mission of the Briâ€" tish people was to teach the world comâ€" mon sense. To him and to us comâ€" _mon sense means much more than horse sense. For both sentiment and intellect go to make it up. Indeed, it is the very quality that prevents the intelâ€" lectual from losing touch with reality. Masaryk himself one of the greatest intellectuals of our generation never lost touch with realities. He led public opinion because he kept in touch with it. Let other intellectuals note the source of his strength, and let them note in particular the weakness of the ideologues who fluttex dangerously an(l vainly in the air. .. . In later days I had opportunities of listening to Masaryk‘s words of wisdom when I stayed with him in Prague or at Lant, his country house.

Socialist leaders have suffered equally with the Monarchists. At one time recently the Vienna Jails were beâ€" lieved to have held 14,000 prisoners, "Every effort has been made to keep the suicide figures secret.

These things were done, in the sacred name of Greater Germany by Viennese to Viennese.

It might be well asked why the property has not previously taken its place among the producing mines. The answer seems to be that litigation took the time, efâ€" fort and money that would otherwise have meant the development of the claims. As the Triplex Mine and its successor, the Arcadio Mine, the proâ€" perty had thirteen unlucky years of litigation. What the Credo Porcupine Mines has been able to do is to have this litigation all settled satisfactory and to be free now to proceed with the development of the property. There is a good road to the property from ‘ Ssouth Porcupine and two power lines of Ithe Northern Canada Power Co pass ! within a halfâ€"mile of the mine buildâ€" ings. There is a mining plant; including i compressor, hoist, drills, pumps, etc., on the property and also a large and wellâ€" equipped bunkhouse, cookery, office,| stable, etc., so that everything is ready ' for a good start for development. _ Asâ€" says made from main shaft samplesl show values from $8.30 to $15.58 in gold to the ton, with good widths being inâ€" dicated.

Two deep holes to prove the zone to 500 feet are also recommended then, this to be followed by underground development.
