Hogâ€" garth, principal; Miss Thompson, cf North Bay; Miss Brown, of Neéw Lisâ€" keard; Miss Taylor, of Ottawa; and Miss Inglis, of Englehart.

It was to be started osâ€" tensibly for the mine and then interâ€" cepted by on> of the thr:e men chargâ€" ed. The game worked all right for a time, neither the mine nor the authoriâ€" ties having any idea that the name of the mine was being used in this illegal way.â€" Then Officer R. Allan got an inkling of the scheme and soon ferretâ€" ed it out. The three men concerned were each fined $50.00 and costs on charges of avcepting consignments of liquor coming in concealed, and one of the three was also fined $250.00 for illegally having liquor. Another man was charged with perjury in connecâ€" tion with this case. He pleaded guilty to a charge of breach of the liquor laws and paid a fing of $500.00, the perjury charge being withdrawn as it was considered that he was sufficiâ€" ently punished in this way. } A report in cireulation twenty ysars iago was to the effect that a spectacuâ€" ‘lar gold find had been made in Brisâ€" tol township. The reports certainly made the find a remarkable one, inâ€" derd, it was too good to be true. Just think ia lead stripped for 400 feet and carrying ore that assayed $1700.00 to the ton right along. It was a lovely story. Three wellâ€"known men about town were arrested in August, 1918, on charges of illegally bringing liquor into tcwn. â€" The liquor came through as freight addresssd to one of the big mines here.

The game worked all right for a _ _ Napoleon Richer, a settler down the river, died in the Cottage Hospital, Timmins, on August 28th, 1918, from injuries received in an accident in the bush the previous day. He was busy at clearing work on his farm when a fallâ€" ing tree pinned him against a stump. An slderly couple who happened to be near the scene of the accident mads a desperate effort to release thre unâ€" man, but their efforts were unavailing. Then they took a bcat and rowzed up the river for assistance, the old man‘s hands being blistered with the swift and impatient rowing. Heolp was taken down and Mr. Richer released from his serious position, but it was only to find that he was injuned in such a way that few hopes could be held out for his recovery. He had crushed by the tree for several hours before help could rnsach him and the shock and injuries proved too much, the patient dying in the early morning hours, despite all that skill and care could do for him. The d>â€" ceased was a widower, and was 35 years of age. He came from St. Jerâ€" ome, Que.. Two children survive, now m»>siding at St. Jerome.

The news of sucli a project | will not be recgeived in the North Land | with any overpowering enthusiasm, |though no one has any grievance against North Bay. All would be pleasâ€" ed to see the roadway from North Bay to the South improved for many hers makz> a habit of motoring from the Bay to the South on the summer auto trip. It will be felt, however, that for the moment the Government could spend road mconsy morz> wisely and helpfully elsewhere than on such a highway. For instance, there is the strip of newlyâ€"settled land from Porâ€" quis Junction to Timmins. A highway along there would fill a longfelt want and be a profitable convenience and [assistance to settlers in this country ‘ithat has more autos and less good‘ rcadways than any other known secâ€" tion of civilized country. A highway betwsen Timmins and Porquis would rouse enthusiasm in this country. The highway from Toronto to North Bay‘ should be continued through the North. But first things should come first, and the greatest nseds should be fil}»d first." It may be noted here that the highway from Porquis Junction to Timmins has been built; the highway from North Bay to has been opzned; and improvements have been made on the road from Trconto to North Bay. The Advance twenty years ago pubâ€" lished a very interesting letter from Sergt. Geo. S. Drew, writing from somewhere in France. Sergt. Drew exâ€" pressed thanks for a box sent ovier by the Oddfellows. He mentioned that Widdy and Bob Carmichael had risen to the rank of sergeant. "I have seen some rather lively times," he wrots, ‘"*"but am now in a quiet little country place and fairly comfortable, but we never knrow how ilong it will last." Sergeant Drew concluded the letter, which was to Mr. Jas Heppleston with kind regards to all in the old town and the old camp. smm But first things should C the greatest nseds sh first." It may be noted highway from Porquis Â¥ane scho Among thossl istea in the casualty rolls as wounded was Buzsle Major Geo. Leslie, of Mr. Ed. Leslie, of Timmins. Bugle Major Leslie had been in France for three years. The Toronto Star published a picture of this soldier, but no particulars were available as to his injury further than that it was to his foot. Another listed twenty years ago as killed in action was Lieut. K. C. Drumâ€" meond, who was wellâ€"known in the Porâ€" cupine, where he worked on the soluâ€" tions at the Dome mill. He played hockey on the championship team of 1914, and was one of the pspular and esteemed good sports of the district. At the front he was so badly wounded that he was invalided home to Canada. He recovered hs hsalth and went back to the battle ling where he at last gave his life to the causs. His hom» was at Midland.

It may be noted that after the question had be:n agitated «for some years, the required division was made. Indeed, the same territ3ry now has three divisions. The casualty lists twenty years ago gave the sad news of the death from weunds of No. 696.268, W. L. Carveth. "Shorty," as he was affectionately known by his host of friends in the camp, was on the Bank of Toronto staff at South Porcupine in the early days, and he was very popular with all who knew him.

No doubt the king deemed it in the best interests f his war weakened and bankrupt ccuntry that political power should pass into nsw and stronger hands. And so Victor Emmanuel remained upâ€" on his country‘s throne and postage stamps, but as a mere figurehcad, and the world witnessed the astonishing rise of "Il Duce de Facismo" (the leader of the fascisi party") to the stature of a modern Caesar, ruling by virfiue of personal might, not devine right. The most innocent design in this new series of postage stamps shows an antelope, with lonz horns and soft eyes. But even this timid creature tells us scmething about reâ€"creation of the Rcman Empire. Why does Italy want her African Colonies, which are filled with these wild animals, and sunâ€"baked deseorts, and jungles and native trioes? Aside from the fact that ownership of those large blocks of real estate aallâ€" ed foreign colonies gives a certain aâ€" mount of prestige to a European nation, and the fact that nations, like children, are apt to want something just to keep someone else from getting it, there is an economic motive behind the TItalian conquests in Africa. These foreign colâ€" cnies although undsveloped and backâ€" ward, and in many places intolerable to white settlers ,provide a valuable source of raw materials to manufactâ€" urers. Then, after the materials are manufactured,, they provide a valuable controlled market in which to sell. ‘ From her investment in the Abysâ€" sinian war, for example, Italy will Coâ€" tain petroleum, rubber, coal, iron, cotâ€" ton, gold and meay othéer agricultural and mineral products, along with seven 4* Lo ied astaa*astaa* ns scP ast as*ne* ns‘ ae*, *# * o 6e M MA a t uk a B ant us‘ us‘ ut i4‘ 4#4" 44 44 â€" -oo.o\\.? ooon..u:oooo\oo:nouozooooooooooxooooxoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo'ou secund. In an age when kings and emâ€" perors were toppling from their thrones, the king cof Italy made no move to opâ€" This allegory makes an appropriate prelude to another design portraying the Empserer of Ethioptaâ€"Italy‘s King Victor Emmanuel. QObosarve the modelâ€" inz of the head to resemble an ancisnt sculptured bust of a Roman emperor, and on either side the spray of laurel, symbols of victory! But triumphs for Victor Emmanuel must have a hollow Witness, for example, the scrsaming eagle wliuch has dived cut of the skies to sink its talons into the mane of an earthâ€"bound lion, clawing it into death or submission. Here, in terms that even the most ignorant tribesman can understand, is the story of Abyssinia‘s deposed emperor Haile Selassie, "the Congquered Lion of Judah," and his conâ€" quest by this superior military might, and particularly the air power, of Italy. Never were a country‘s desires and ambitions more plainly avowed before the whole world than on this issue of posiage stamps! It is well known that Mussolini aspires to recapture for modâ€" ern Italy the departed power and glory of the ancient Roman Empire. And any who dsubt this need only to exâ€" aming the beautiful but grim pictures which appears on these stamps from Italian East Africa. the denominations in this series are printed nct only in Italian, but also in Amharic the language of recently conâ€" quered Somaliland and Eritrea. It thus appears that for postal purposes at least, and possibly for administrative purpaoses also, so these three colonies arg ‘being combined into one political administration. There are twenty stamps in the reâ€" gular postage issue, ranging in value from 2 centimos to 20 lira, and utilizâ€" ing six different designs. The airpost set contains ton denominations, from 25¢ to 25L, amonz which there are four different designs. The eleventh and final design appears on the 2L 2.50L airpost special delivery stamps. THOUGHTFUL CARE AND BIGNITY CHARACTERIZE OUR SERVICE 8. T. WA LK Eh Funeral Director TELEPHONE 509 81 THIRD AVENUE T I M M I N 8 Sudbury Star: Now is a good time to discover whether the moths have enjoyed your clothes during the past few imonths. Turning now to the airpoast special delivery stamps, we sz2e a plough resting on the soil of Italian East Africa, symâ€" bolic of: Italy‘s desire to colonizes her African possessions and to turn them into peaceful productive agricultural lands. But above the plough flies a bombing plane, to remind the rebellious Ethiopia of what will happen ( as in many places it has happened) if he deâ€" serts the ploughshare for his ancient rifle, and takes a pot shot from behind a bush at the local military authorities. This same thought is again expreossed on one of the airpost stamps, which shows the grim figure of a sharpâ€"eyed bird, an eagle or a hawk, perched on a lofty summit, surveying the countryâ€" sias 1Or mileées around. In the backs ground again flies the bombing plane, and the message is obvious. Italy‘s airforce keeps constant vigil over her newly conquered territory, and those tribesmen who revolt may expect to be bombed or gassed by the great sharpâ€" eyéed, manâ€"made birds of the sky. "fasces"; both of which refer to a bunâ€" dle cf wooden rods, tied tightly together and containing an axe with the edge pointing outwards. For ancient Româ€" ans the fasces symbolized the power of the state over life and limb; and for modern Italians the intorpretation is much the same. For "fascism" is a syâ€" stem of government under which the stat2 ((le, the political authorities) wield supreme power. The individual liberty of the citizen is considered by these pcliticians to be a wholly unnecâ€" essary, not to say dangerous, luxuryâ€" something to be exterminated by any means available. 1 Lightly traced in qutline behind this determined figure with the standard we see the now familiar symbol of fasâ€" cism. This name comes from the Italâ€" ian word "fasci‘" and the Latin word million new retail customers. Thus we get a glimpse of the purpose and endâ€" result of wars which powerful nations wage against weaker nations. Prestâ€" ige for the politicians, and prosperity for the business men! The man who does the dirty and dangerous work of fighting, and often loses his lifé in the struggle, is shown on another design in this new series. He is the plain Italian soldier, picturâ€" ed here as he plants firmly upon the soil of Ethiopia an ancient Roman standard. This curious device is surâ€" mounted by an eagle, symbol of imâ€" perial ~power, and below it are the letters abbreviations for an old Latin phrase which means "The Senate and People of the Roman Empire". Such was the standarg which Ceasar‘s legicn carried into territories which were conquered and absorbed into the Roman empire. # ® L a
