It was decided to wait until the Counâ€" cil had taken definite action to call an election. Recently the Council received a letâ€" ter from the Citizens‘ League which asked the Mayor and three members to resign and to attend last night‘s League mecting,. Both requests were indignantly â€"refused by the Town fathers. A resolution of protest against the open season, which ended on April 15, allowing the trapping of beaver in the area, was passed. The resoluâ€" tion asked the government to close the ~season when female beaver were carrying their voung. A brief from the Ontario Federation of Unemployed to the Dominion govâ€" ernment which dealt with the unemâ€" ployed problem, was endorsed by the meeting. The brief asked that maclhâ€" inery be set up to register all sinlge, unemployed workers, permenantly loâ€" cated and transients, across the counâ€" ="* How wonderful, Grace!"â€" Above is shown the building at 17 Elm street north which contains the Sun Ray Health Clinic, formally opened on Friday.

"It‘s all so easy, too. A small down payment (not half as much as the cost of our car) and the rest is actually less than the rent we‘re paying now. In a few years our house will be entirely paid for and it will be like living rent free. "Hillâ€"Clarkâ€"Francis explained it‘s the government housing act that makes it all possible. They‘re workâ€" ing on the plans now. Just as soon as the weather is suitable they‘ll start building. George says we‘ll only build once so we want it built right, so of course, we‘re having Hillâ€"Clarkâ€"Francis take complete charge."

Tra~â€" sients were dropping dead on railroad tracks she said. <It was only after ten years that the government was beginâ€" ning to take notice that thousands of transients were starving. A deputation will approach the Council at its next meeting in connceâ€" It-ion with relief for single unemployed ‘men. try. It asked that the National Housâ€" ing Act be amended to enable muniâ€" cipalities to deal directly with the Doâ€" minion government instead of through the Provincial government as they now are required to do. Completion of the transâ€"Canada highway, the carrying through of the St. Lawrence Seaway project, drought control in the west, reforestation and road improvement, were also asked for. "Single men in this town are pracâ€" tically starving to death," said one lady from the audience lastâ€" night, This town is lax in its attitude to sinâ€" gle men and also to those who are married, ‘There are single exâ€"serviceâ€" men who are sleeping outside at night" she continued. "This is a pretty situation soon will be as‘~~~z some of to ‘put on a unifc:~~~*~. "gain cause this is a gold hV‘ d mean that everybody her. pretty," she continued. A member of the audience suggested that outside women were coming into Timmins and getting jobs hereâ€"â€"jobs that should> be to "local girls. Decision was to refer the matter to the Business Girls‘ Club and to the Women‘s Institute. The Fireside Club of the United Church announces a rummage sale to be heldg in the basement of the church on Saturday of this week, April 22nd, commencing at 9 o‘clock. . Previous events of similar kind under the ausâ€" pices of the Fireside Club give assurâ€" ance that the rummage sale on Saturâ€" day will be well worth while attendâ€" ing.

Chief Mines Inspector to Speak at Institute D. G,. Sinclair, Chief Mining Inspecâ€" tor for Ontario, will be the speaker at the next meeting of local branch of the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy. Contrary to usual cusâ€" tom, the meeting will not be held in the Empire Hotel but in the community building of the McIntyre Arena at Schumacher. Additional $25,000 in Taxes for Timmins (From Yesterday‘s Globe and Mail) Town of Timmins this year should receive $25,000 to $30,000 added tax revenues because of a measure to amend the Assessment Act, which was given first reading in the Ontario Legislature Monday, Mines Minister Paul Leduc estimated yesterday. Mr. Leduc predicted Timmins, Teck Township and Tisdale ownship, in which are located most of Ontario‘s profitâ€"making gold mines, would toâ€" gether receive $175,000 more this year from the tax on mine profits. "‘The bill is an effort to help the municipalities, and it will affect only mings with profits, determined by the mine assessors under the Mining Tax Act, of $2,333,000 or more," said the Minister. The Assessment Act as it now stands fixes the municipal tax on mine profits at 1‘ per cent until the tax reaches $35,000. Tax on the excess of profits over $2,333,000 is 1 per cont. The amending bill, which received first reading yesterday, fixes the rate after the $35,000 tax has been paid at 2% per cent. With the 1‘ mill provincial subsidy added to the higher tax on ming proâ€" fits, the Northern municipalities should have their financial problems eased considera@bly, said Mr. Leduc. Proposes Plan Thai Would Save ‘Cost "‘The Council can of course ignore this challenge" said the resigned Counâ€" cillor, "but I remember at the time that we resigned at least one man, Counâ€" cillor McNeill, said that he was willâ€" ing to make a public issue of the matâ€" ter. This is the opportunity and if he and the others are not too timid to clear the air in public, then we will hhave an clection." At the present time arrangements are being made in the Town Hall to hold an clection. Necessary equipâ€" ment has been ordered by the Town Clerk. The matter will probably be dealt with at the next regular meeting of Council, on Monday night. According to the Ontario Municipal Act the positions are vacant after Monday‘s meeting. Procedure then is for the Mayor to issue a warrant for an *election which is held about two weeks later, (Continued From Page One) tion has been sent to the local member, Mr. Jos. A. Bradette, M.P., to Hon. T. A. Crerar, Minister of Mines, and to Hon. Ian Mackenzic, Minister of Naâ€" tional Defence. The Porcupine Prospectors‘ Associaâ€" tion has decided upon the dates for the observation of the week to comâ€" memorate the thirtieth anniversary 0f the birth of the Porcupine. The dates selected are August 5th to 12th, and the celebration is to take place at South Porcupine. Committees are to be formed this week to carry on the good work. ' ' The Prospectors‘ Association has also sent the Government a list of the townâ€" ship boundary lines that should reâ€" ceive very prompt attention.

It is hoped that all members will be present at this important and interesting meeting, which will commence at 230 o‘clock, instead of the usual time, 3 o‘clock. Members are asked to make a special note of this time, as the programime is a lengthy one that will bring much enjoyment. The programme on Monday af tcrnoon will be a "request" programme. Memâ€" bers have been asked to send in their requests to have artists who have apâ€" peared throughout the year perform once again, The requests have been numerous, and as it is impossible to fill all of them, the artists whose names have been most frequently mentioned, will appear on the programme. Members are also asked to make sugâ€" gestions for the next year, and in this manner ensure a happy and enjoyable year for the club. Election of officers will be the most important business of the meeting which is to follow the programime.

One of Russ Cryderman‘s Stories of Dynamite Cap (From "Grab Samplcs" ) A friend of long standing reports that the doctors are giving him. nitroâ€"glyâ€" cerine pills and he says he is afraid to go down the street for fear that som* acquaintance will come along and greet hirn with a slap on the back. He opines that in such case he would exploce. Which is reminiscent of a story that Russ Cryderman tells about a shaft contract that a partner and he had years ago in the Sudbury district. It was a six by six single compartment affair and the crew, which worked tenâ€" hour shifts, included a young man who had not had much mining experiencee and who delighted in taking {foolhardy chances, It was the daring custom of this young miner to bite the explosives cap on to the fuse. One day he swallowed a cap, a mishap which occasioned a lot of joshing on the part of crew memâ€" bers. The cook heard about it and be. came alarmed. He refused to allow the young man into the cookery and when mealtime came he would carry a plate out into the clearing, place it on stump and yell, "Fire!" _ _ â€" , THURSDAY, APRITL 20TH, 1930
