The activities of The Boys‘ and Girls‘ Work Cominittee said "Chin" Ball, really encompassed all the work the club was doing as most of its service work was for children. However. in 1936 and 1937 his committee sponsored an Essay Contest in the schools. It was amazing the amount of information An interesting commentary was the statement that Mr. Wolino did not beâ€" lieve the. parents of a child must sarily be "musical‘" in order that a bov havye some ability, As often as not he found that the parents of his bandsâ€" men were neither instrumentalists not singers. Explaining his policy of refusing to accept boys who played with some other musical organization, Mr. Wolno said that he did it to give more boys opporâ€" tunity of getting some musical educaâ€" tion. shawing the way," it concluded. Reporting on the Boys‘ Band,«Fred Wolno said that fortyâ€"three boys had passed through the band. Present strength was thirtyâ€"eight. Two boys left when their parents left town and disciplinary reasons accounted for three more. Of the fortyâ€"three, only four boys had previous<band experieence., T‘wenty yearse ago the funeral took place at Timmins of Ed. Malik, merâ€" chant, of Moneta. The funeral was largely aisended, one of the f2satures being the music by the Italian Band. Another feature was the costly casket in which the deceased was buried. This casket was exactly similar in every way to the one in which the Irce Sir J. P. Whitngy, premier of Ontario, was buried. It was of black walnut, with six handles and all trimmings of gun metal. It weighed 610 pounds ompty. The late Ed. Malik was a naturalized Canadian who was born in Austria or German cerritory, and all his relatives were consequently alien enemics at the time of his death. The estate left by him totalled around nine thousand dollars, it was said, and the fact thas the relatives were alien encmies comâ€" plicated the windinzâ€"up of the estate. Repoits siummarizing achievements in the various branches of service work the Lions Club undertakes were preâ€" sented at the regular weekly meeting of that organization on Thursday night in the Empire Hotel, The following under the heading, "Simms and Hooker Move Next Door to Themsclves," appeared in The Adâ€" vance twersky years ago:â€"*"Well," said Mr. F.â€"C. Simms yesterday, "we are now beside ourselves." What he meant was that the firm of Simms and Hooker had moved next docr to themselvos, securing prenrises more suitable for heat and health conservationâ€"the preâ€" mises occupiled ursil this month by the Ingersollâ€"Rand Co." Twenty years ago Messrs W. N. P. H. Stock, of Toronto, opened a new jewellery store in Timmins in the preâ€" mises formerly occupied by P. L. Mcâ€" Hale in the McInnis block. Mr. Stock who opened the store here, had many friends in Timmins having spent some time here some months previously and being gonerally recognized as an exâ€" perienced and competent jeweler. The Advance vwenty years ago pubâ€" lished a summary of the amended arâ€" mistice. Among the terms noted were: that the Allies should provision Gerâ€" many during the truce; that all Gorâ€" man subarines imust be handed over to the Alliss g< once; the turning over by the enemy Gf 150,000â€" railway cars; evacuation by=â€"Germany of all invaded Achievementsof Timmins Lions Club Summarized Reports at Mceting Thursday Night Deal With Work in Tuberculosis Prevention, Boys‘ Band, Special Efforts for Boys and Girls, Supplying of Glasses and Other Activiâ€" ties, w'O'OOf"OOOOOOOlO P P L " MONDAY,.

He exhorted the memâ€" bers to greater efforts in ticket selling. It was announced that a dance would be rold at the Riverside Pavilion n 14. The Advance twenty years ago said: "On Sunday evening a dolirious patient at one of the hospitals here succeeded in escaping from his rocm by dropping down from ‘the window. He had only nigsht dress ‘on, but he evidently made his way quickly along the road +o Schumachor. The night was very cold ind it was not believed possible that he could hRave gone far in the snow and bitter weather. In an incredibly shor©. time, however, he had made his way to rsar Schumacher. A citizen driving, however, saw the man and after some difficulty succeeded in wrapping him in a Buffalo robe and taking him to the Schumacher hospital wheore he is doinz well. The man was suffering from influenza and would not take medicine. He was not considered to have any chance for recovery until a‘ver his desperate nightshirt walk in .wenty below zero weather." Ths2s Advance mentioned in its Nov. Concluding his report, Lion Ball, reâ€" gretted that there were not more actiâ€" vities for the girls. Nearly all Lions work centred around the boys, he said The girls should not be neglected. In addition a considerable amount of repair work was done on alâ€" ready distributed. One boy was sent t Ottawa for conâ€" caltation and an optical operation and two to Toronto. The Committee mainly relied on the recommendations uf the school nurses to find children who needed glasses. This year the Commitâ€" tee wanted to bring in an outside Proâ€" vincial Health man to examine the eyes of all children,. However, that could not be done until the school nurses had more time. In 1935, said Dr. Ray Hughes, reportâ€" ing on the Optical Committee, thirtyâ€" ecight pairs of glasses were given away. In 1936. fortyâ€"two pairs; 1937, thirtyâ€" two pairs: and so far this year, eighteen. territory; surrender of vast amount of guns and ammunition; reparation for damaze done and restoration of all Allied merchants vessels; unconditional surrender of all German foreces in Past Africa; surrender of part of German navy and control of aircraft; free accoess to Russia for the Allies; sending home of all Allisd civilians in Germany. The Advance noted that the armistice amounted to an unconditional surrendâ€" er by Germany. The Advance also er by Germany. The Advance also noted that on Nov. 1"h, 1918, a repubâ€" lic was proclaimed in Germany, with Von Hindenburg joining ithe repubâ€" licans. Th» Kaiser, thse Empress and the Crown Prince had fled from Gerâ€" many to Holland. Ths Advance mentioned in its Nov. 13th, 1918, issue that the influenza cpideimic in the Porcupine seemed to be abating. There were only 15 deaths ‘n the whole camp during the previous week, and some of these were people from outside places. Fewer new casts were developing. On Thursday evening, Nov. 7th, 1918, ‘here was an enthusiastic celebration in Timmins of the armistics though many her2 pointed out that word of the armistice being made had ncs yet reached this country. Cobalt, New Lisâ€" keard and other North Land towns also thus prematurely celebrated the armisâ€" did a number of towns and citâ€" ics in the South. Howevet, Nov, iith, 1918, was properily celebrated here and at South Porcupine as armistics day, official noice being recoived lhrro about six o‘clock in the morning in reâ€" gard to the signing of the truce.

The negligence charge was laid against Dubeau after his brother and niece were injured when the car he was driving was completecly wrecked in an accident at the Culver Park entâ€" rance curve on the Timmins highway on November 3. Dean Kester, K.C., of Timmins, appeared for the defendant. In preliminary trial testimony Conâ€" stable A. Morston, of Teck township police, told the court that he inspected the scene of the accident about °® minutes after it happened on the Thursday evening. He found that the car failde to make the turn, dropped over a fourâ€"foot embankment and rollâ€" ed 49 feet until it struck a garage. The car was completely wrecked from the impact. When Dubeau was questioned by the offieer he at first stated that he didn‘t know what happened and later told the officer that the strange road and glaring headlights of an onâ€"comâ€" ing car confused him. When asked by the crown attorney regarding the condition of the driver of the car, Constable Morston said that he found him to be intoxicated. Upon inspection he faund a cork screw in the front seat of the car and two brokâ€" en bottles not more than a foot away from the vehicles, When questioned Dubeau stated that he hadn‘t had a drink for six months. sergeant Cairns, who was at the police station when the driver was brought in, substantiated Morston‘s statement as to the condition of the accused, and Constable M. Hancock, of e local Provincial Police deâ€" tachment, also testified Dubeau had been {drinking. Upon being as)ted by Mr. Kester if a doctor had been called for his client while he was in the jpolice station Sergeant Cairns did not know as he went off duty at 7 o‘clock. In his evidence later on in the case Dr. Edis, who attendâ€" ed the injured people called at the police station at midnight to inform Dubeau that his brother and niece were not in such serious condition as first suspected. Excellent ore results have been reâ€" turned by initial diamond drilling of new gold occurrences obscured by heavy overburden, located one mile south of Monteith in Orsario, The Northern Miner anncunces last week, and conâ€" tinues :â€" One drill hole returned two ors secâ€" tions of $18 across 15 {t. and ~$12 across 15 ft. approximately, separated by 15 ft. of core not as well mineralized and not assayed yest. Individual sections ran 28 ozs. and over two ounces, but they were cut to one ouncse grade. Anâ€" other hols is now being drilled to exâ€" plore for extemsion of this ore 100 ft. to the west. Thrée Swastika girls, Sybll Devenâ€" ny. .Mary Wickham, and Margaret Wright, were walking down the right side of the highway north of Swarpika when they heard a car, which was later identified as Duâ€" beau‘s, coming over the hill. From theâ€"sound they knew it was travelâ€" ling at a fast rate and they stepped off the road to the right side, When the car went by they were hit by stones thrown up by the back whesls. All three testifed that the vehicle then rolled over until its progress was stopped by the garage at the serâ€" vice station. _One of the witnesses stated she id not know what part of the car hit the post, Another said it was the front, while the third believea the side of the automobile came in conâ€" tact with the advertising sign.

Canadian Manners Appeal to United States Fishermen Use of the new type of bits at Payâ€" master has resulited not only in a deâ€" crzase of transpomation and distribuâ€" tion charges of bits but also in greater flexibility in the drill steel setâ€"up and a tendency towards conditions of greavâ€" ~r efficiency at all working faces. It has meant more drilling per machins drill shift in stoping and raising operâ€" ations and consequently, a reduction in the labour cost of drilling. It has meant a lower sweel cost per foot of hole drillzd and other minor adventages. Bits ars sharpened in a standard drill steel sharpener equipped with speâ€" cial dics and dollies. Dull bits are slowly heated to a bright yeollow heat (about 900 degrees Centigrade) in the forging furnace. The dovevail end of the water hole is imcamed cut with a hand punch when the heated bit is reâ€" moved from the furnace and the sharpâ€" ener then swages the dull cutting edges in the "fuller‘" dies and slightly flasâ€" tens the outside cdzes of the bit wings to ensure easy entry into the clamping dies and dollies the bit in the clampâ€" ing dics. Transportevsion of detachable bits and shanks is done by the machine men and their helpers on their way to and from the working faces and does not interfere with the drillinzy period of a machine shift. Standard drill steel transportrcion had bien performed principally by machins helpers. The lecture was entitled "The Use of Detachable ‘Bit Drill Steel at Paymasâ€" tor." â€"It was illustrated with slides. Montréeal, Nov. 18%.â€"How Canadian manners appeal to a visitor is tuld by 8. C. Lindeman, of Cleéveland, Ohio, in a letter to C. K. Howard, Manager, Tourist and Conventon Bureau, Canaâ€" dian National Railways. Mr. Howard had suggested to Mr. Lindeman a numâ€" ber of likely spots for a fishing holiday and the latter selected a camp in Metaâ€" gama,. Ontario. Returning home Mr. Lindeman wrote expressing satisfaction with the choice and added: "I wish to go on record that the most outstanding thing that came to my notice on my first trip to Cansada was the consideraâ€" tion and good manners of the Canaâ€" dians and the good accommodations found." Paper at Institute on Detachable Drill Large scale investigation under pracâ€" tical mining conditions was warranted by preliminary observations on the prrformance of detachable bit drill steel in the quartz carbonaie veins CC rumber five and six mines. Since Febrvary, 1938, che workings of those two mines have gradually been chargâ€" sd over to the use of detachable bit drill stcel. Since June 1937, Paymaster Consolidâ€" ated Mines Limited, has been :making an investigation into the economy and use of detachable bit drill steel, Transâ€" portation and distribution difficuities that had arisen through the use of standard drill steel in three widely sepâ€" arated mine areas, serviced by a centâ€" ral steel sharpening slvyp. made the investigation necessary. Speaking at the monthly meeting of the Porcupine branch of the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy, held in the Empire Hotel on Thursday night, Alfred E. Pugsley and W G. Brisenden gave a paper on the subj@ct. A ‘process, dsvelopced on the proâ€" perty, which considerably increased the life of the individual bis, and as the result the 2sconomy of detachable bis drill steel, was that of reforging dulled detachable bits. Since the fall of 1937, when bit reforging equipment was inâ€" stalled at the Paymaster, dcuachable bits have bsen resharpened that way. The performance of detachable drill steel bits was first observed at number two mine, said the paper, whoere the rock being drilled was composed mainâ€" ly of porphyry or tourmaline, and where siandard drill stesl transportaâ€" tion cos*ts had been excessive. The râ€" sults obtained in that early work deâ€" finitely established the economy Oof the detachable ‘bits at that That conclusion was ‘based on the "regrind" system of resharpening dulled b\s.
