Martin, founder of the Martinâ€"Bird Mine, and one of the pionâ€" eers of the North, died last week at his home in Larder Lake. He was born in Muskoka, and first settled in Temisâ€" kaming in 1899. While living at New Liskeard he began prospecting in 1906. In 1916 he moved to the West, but reâ€" turned in 1923, gcing to Larder Lake to live in 1924. He started the Martinâ€" Bird Mine. He was 83 years old at the time of death. He is survived by four sons and three daughters. ‘There are als> 36 grandchildren and 24 greatâ€" srandchildren. The funeral was held on Friday, service being conducted at Larder Lake and interment being made at New Liskeard.

While in Timmins Mr. Makela met a large number of Finnish people, exchanging views with them on many topics of mutual interâ€" est, particularly in rezard to the coâ€" cperative movement.

New business must be created. and only initiative can do it. If we continue, in the face of severe lessons, to stifle the only spirit that can help us, by stupid and unjust and destructive legislation, then all we can do is resign ourselves to the inevitable of mcunting of national deficits, such as Mr. Dunninz revealed last Tuesday And, lot us remember, Canada‘s curâ€" rent deficits are proportionately little below those of United States, where the most extravagant spending orgy in hnistory has been under way for the past seven . years. Eleven million people remain upon relief there. Here we have a proportionate number, in spite of the fact that we also have one of the greatest unprospected and preâ€" sumably mineralâ€"bearing areas in the world. We are not in politics, but if we were asked to name the most valuâ€" able public servant in the present Adâ€" gministration we should unhesitatingly point to him. He has always been a hard worker, has a real grasp of finâ€" j ancial affairs of his country, and, though a party man, he has not hesiâ€" tated to cut through party bonds when ihe believed it necessary. | That part of his address which reâ€" | ferred to the need for leadership and courage particularly appealed to us and we are sure met with the approbaâ€" ‘ tion of all who know Canada from coast to coast. There is not the slightâ€" l est doubt that it is in the field of priâ€" vate investment Canada must for prosâ€" ‘ perity; but, in the face of present conâ€" ditions and lack of demand, can we legically hops for any material increase | in new enterpriss or expansion of estâ€" | ablished business? What this country really needs, is a | fundamental restoration of the initiatâ€" live which establishes new hope, new |towns, new businessâ€"the pioneering way toward turning redâ€"ink entries inâ€" to black. Mr. Dunning knows his Canada, and what he says about leadership and courage is true. We also believe he might agree with us that the first esâ€" sential to national recovery and stabâ€" ilized prosperity is revival of the old spirit of adventure and chanceâ€"taking. He knows, we are sure, that there is no present hope of prosperity from the what fields of the Prairie Provinces, and mizhty little through expansion of present business in a world that every year is locking itself more securely aâ€" gainst imports. Canada‘s only major hope lies up in the Northland, but until initiative is given its head the North will remain just thatâ€"a hope. We are aware that bureaucracty, as expressed in Security Commissions, with their idiotiz, stupefying rules and regulations, is the creation of the sevâ€" eral provinces and not of the Dominion Government. but we have so much conâ€" fidence in Mr. Dunning‘s sound comâ€" mon sense and his standing before the nation. irrespective of party, as to be convinced that his aid in releasing the necessary ~initiative would ‘be more effective than that of any other one man in Canada. Established business, by and large, has exparded as far as can reasonably be expected undor present population cancditions. New business must be spirit, prime essential in a new counâ€" try such as this. As Miss Judith Robâ€" inson said in her column a few days ago, ‘"The markets of the world are closing one by one most of the materials Canada produces for export." That is undeniable and it is therefore certain that Canada‘s greatest hope lies in development and production of materâ€" ials that are ‘beyond the fear of overâ€" supply. Rouyn, May 6â€"Armand Huard, a young man employed at Malartic, was instantly killed one evening this week while he was riding on a truck between Malartic and Val Or. The truck turnâ€" ed over through some cause or another, probably from overâ€"running the shoulâ€" der of the road at the ditch. The young nan who was on the back of the truck was thrown onto the ground with great force and received fatal injuries. Young Malartic Man Killed When Truck Turned Over (From Globe and Mail) Quite apart from concessions to the mining industry and proposals by which industry generally may be encouraged, the Budget speech by Hon. Charles Dunning, Minister of Finance, was, in cur opinion, one of the most sensible and worthwhile reviews of national conditions that have come out of Otâ€" tawa in many years.

THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TTIMMIN3, ONTARIO Asked why this should be, official said that they believe the preventativ methods employed by the departmen were responsible. Fire hazard inspec tion was a daily feature of the depart ment‘s work and all complaints receive« were thoroughly investigated. The coâ€"operation of the general pub lic in cleaning up places which be potential fire traps was also seen t: be an important factor in keeping los down to a minimum. Over the weekâ€"end there were onl two calls. On Thursday evening ther was a chimney fire at 54 Middleto: Avenue and on Saturday evening a cal was received from 252 Elm Street North where a chimney was blazing. That the number of fires in Timmins is small in proportion to the populaâ€" tion and the type of structure most common here, is a fact,. There are many minor calls but fire loss is low over a period of years and serious fires are remarkably few.
