Loring, who is seeing to the conduct of the local operations. The experiment will be watched with much interest, and results awaited with special attention." It may be added to this that the public did not learn very extended particulars of the results of the diamond drill work and so it was more or less taken for granted that the findings were either not practicularly satisfactory or promising, or else finanâ€" cial considerations prevented the carryâ€" ing on of the work to the extent that might have brought success. Labour Day at Iroquois Falls in 1920 was a pleasing success as in previous years, though there was not the large attendance from outside towns that had featured some other years before and after 1920. A number of Timmins tenâ€" nis players were present to compete in the tennis tournament. R. Lilly was the winner in 1920 of the annual trophy of the Timmins Golf Club. In the semiâ€"finals he beat S. A. Wookey, 5 up and 4 to play. Mr. Frood beat Mr. Mackie in the semiâ€"finals, 5 up to 4 to play. In the finals Mr. Lilly beat Mr. Frood 6 up and 4 to play. The Advance at the time noted that the golf course had been steadily improvâ€" ing and the number of devotees of the game steadily increasing. At the week‘s police court twenty years ago in Timmins two different men were fined $500.00 and costs each. The thousand dollars so secured made many hopeful for new sidewalks and so on. |gether the best. However, there was !a good crowd, and a regular treat for all lattending. The weather even turned The annual picnic given by the Oddâ€" fellows of the camp on Sept. lst, 1920, proved an enjoyable and pleasing event though the attendance was not as large as it would have been had the weather been more ideal. The picnic had been postponed twice for the benefit of baseâ€" ball events in the camp that season and the last day picked on proved not altoâ€" out better than it looked.

The word, which of cours>, means a policeman, has been traced back to the days of Sir Robert Peoel. In the nineleenth century Sir Robert Poel organized the Irish Constabulary while he was secretary for the Briâ€" tish government in Ireland. Thisg Irish constabulary was the first force ever organized on the lines of the moâ€" dern polics force. Its members were called "Peelers" after the founder. Lat?r, in 1829, Sir Robert Peel beâ€" came home secretary in the cabinet of the Duke of Woellington. While in this position he introduced his improved police aystzem in London. There his men wers called ‘‘Peelers" as in Ireâ€" land, and "Bobbigs", the latter a still popular name. One feature of the men‘s uniforms was the bright copper ‘buttons which suggested the name ‘"Coppera" to the London cockney, a name which shortâ€" ened to one syllable, became "cop".

The sports page might give off an cdour suggestive of a baseball club‘s dressing room, which usually smells like a cro‘; between a bottle of liniâ€" ment and a broken down shoe. The woman‘s page might have a variety of odours. There could be a suggestion of jasmine and aweet peas; or mayhaps the slightly more cloying scent of the ross. The page upon which the municipal news was printed might smell in a variety of ways. Taking the municiâ€" pal government of some and cities into consid@sration the page might be scented with musk or rotten meat. In others no at all would be necessary.
