Even those who wrongly ‘porsmt in referring to the poem, as . the National Anthemâ€"or one of the | national anthemsâ€"are not too sure of * ‘ the words. On the frequent occasions when "O Canada" is sung, any observyâ€" kal ant person will be surprised at the few who appear to know the verses of "O Canada" Perhaps, it was thoughts like these that tempted "The Native Son," the official magazine of the Native Sons of Canada, to print in the curâ€" rent issue of that journal, the following stanZzaAs:â€" O Canada!

They wouldn‘t be so active this week. (Councillor Purbrick also mentioned seeing a potato bugâ€" which was not so good. There is a tradition that there are no potato bugs in the. North. So far as this part of the North is concerned that is pracâ€" tically true. There has been the odd potato bug making its way here from the South, but these pests have never been able to estabiish themselves in this part of the North, and there is no reason why they should be allowed to do so. o long as, the North has blackflies, they can well do without the potato bug.

There was a big attendance and a remarkable showâ€" ing of vegetables and flowers, Ponald A. Beckman, formerly a reâ€" . sident of Timmins, being employed at the Hollinger while here, died twenty years ago in Detroilt. He was only | about 25 years of age. | Two shows per night was inaugurated by the New Empire theatre in Timâ€" mins twenty years ago. | | "The mo«t remarkable display of furs ever shown in this country," was the aescription given by The Advance of the showing here twenty years ago by the Sellersâ€"Gough Co., of Toronto. There were over $30,000 worth of furs in the display. The same week showed a remarkable display of North Land honey at the Nick Blahey store. The demonstration was in charge of J. D. Brunne, of Matheson, who brought the honey here from his apilaries at Matheson and Amstein. T wenty Years Ago From the Porcupine Advance Fyles Twenty years ago The Advance voicâ€" ed the general complaint of hunters that there was no open season for parâ€" tridge. The Advance twenty years ago made mention of a wireless outfit at Schuâ€" macher, a young man there having made the whoh outfit himself. The outfit was described by experts as one of the very best for practical results. A â€"charge of furious driving whils drunk brought a fine of $50.00 and costs here twentyâ€"years ago. The driver escaped jail becaus> he was driving a horse and buggy and not an auto. Among the local and personal notes in The Advance twenty years ago were the following:â€""Mrs. Moffat of the Cairns hospital, returned this week from a visit to Toronto." "It is unâ€" derstoocd that Art Trocp has gone to Iroquois Falls where he will be engagâ€" ed this winter as coach of the hockey team." ‘"‘Thieves and destroyers of proper.y have about the limit at the V. N. T. Mines. In one of the buildings, the sashes, doors, etc., were stolen, the beaverboard even being takâ€" en from the walls." "W. M. Summerâ€" hayes, formerly manager of the Porâ€" cupine Crown, is vistting in the camp." "Angus McDonald, M.P., was a visitor to Timmins this week and had a wellâ€" attended meeting of the Labour party and others interested, the meeting beâ€" ing held on Sunday. He views his chances) for reâ€"election as even better than his chance for election in the first place." "Robt. McMillan, T. N. O. conductor, and Miss Mary McLennan, of North Bay, were united in marâ€" riage at North Bay last week." At a meeting of Timmins town ccounâ€" cil twenty years ago, Pire Chief A. Borland was appointed weighimaster of the new town scales. Phil Antone asked the council about his chances to secure a restaurant license. It was pointed out that if he could satisfy the chief of police that he was all right, the licensy: would only cost him $1 a year. J.P. Bartleman objected to the town‘s meâ€" thod of charging for sewer connections. The charge was always for thirtyâ€"thres feet, while sometimes the actual lengih of the sewer from the main would oniy ibe a fraction of that assessment. In reply, the acting mayor, Councillor L. S$. Newton, pointed out that where the sewer ran down one side of the street (as it did in several cases) it would not be fair to charge the owners on the far side for the extra length 6f connection. The plan had been to strike a rate that would meet the cosits and be the same to all. As was the usual thing twenty years ago, The Advance was urging the proâ€" vincial government w glve the .NOJ.UI a square deal. j At the request of Cochrane board of trade Premier E. C. Drury consented twenty years ago to personally turn the first sod on the projected extension of the T. N. O. noerth of Cochrane. Twenty years sago it was "great" weather in Timmins, golf being conâ€" tinued all through October. Gordon Murray, an oldâ€"timer of this part of the North, revisited Timmins twenty years ago. He brought here with him a number of very rich samâ€" ples of gold from the Pas, Manitoba.

A Modern Notion Thouzh our present day bedrooms seem logical and obvious to us, we were a long time working them to their curâ€" rent type. Even a few years back bedâ€" rcoms were vast, and beds frequently had draperies that could completely lose off all the night air. And the win bed is a very modern notion..... .80 that wide bed that looks like a single d but is actually two beds which can pulled apart to make up. The problem in furnishing a bedroom today is a mater of hoarding light, air and space, so every piece of furniture has to count and there‘s no room to tuck away mistakes. Among the tricks the decorators use to make a room seem larger than it is are: One tone effects in rug, walls, curtains, furniture paintâ€" ed the color of the walls or walls reâ€" peating the tone of light wood furin‘ure low beds without footboards rather than massive poster types; a few good accesoriss in decisive scale rather than a lot of trinkety things that tend to clutter the room; too little furniture rather than to much; too little pattern rather than to much; contrast achisved by various textures rather than various colors.

If you do put your all| on good springs andi mattress, then| have to set them on wood block legs,| you can add a plyboard headboard, and either : slipcover, upholster, wallpaper or paint it. If you‘re making a bedroom bed out of a situdio couch, you can also add a plyboard headboard. If you are going to town on new beds, consider the new upholstered ones, especiallyl those covered in leather, along with , lovely poster types and other 'mterest-. ing period styles in wood. l Next in rank for bedroom importance is a capacious shest of drawers with ‘jots of storage space â€" a highboy for instance or one of those new "clothes files" really made to fit modern cloâ€" thes. Or you may decide to get unit drawer and shelf sections made sp that they can be arranged together in any combination to make the most of the wall space. Or consider a tall secreâ€" tary or even a breakfront for A bedâ€" room piece if you need a desk here. A mirror is a mustâ€"not just one either. ... we‘re all for big sweep of mirror to keep a body aware of how she really looks from head to foot.

A boudoir chair, a chaise longue, a bench or a love seat will add immeasurably to the pleasure of a bedroom and save the bed from being sat upon at the same time. If theres positively not ‘«pac? for any of these, a handsome hassock or pouf can surely be tucked in somewhere.

Simmsâ€"Hooker Pickering the flounce red and wt ce on the bed and the chair covering are white checked chintz. pair of bedside tables. The lighting is usually neglected in a bedroom, despite all the reading everyâ€" body is supposed to do in bed. Most bedroom lamps are small and tippy or else tall and tcopâ€"heavy. A threeâ€"way indirect lamp, either floor or table model, is the best idea. Or get a spotâ€" light â€" if you want to read without disturbing your rocmâ€"mate. Both bedâ€" side and dressing table lamps sihould be bigger than they areâ€"â€"for usefulness as well as for decorative importance. Thls is a place you can add charming fastidious detailâ€" â€"so don‘t be dinky about it. The same thing goes for acâ€" cessories â€" don‘t let a lot of meaningâ€" less souvenirs accumulate here, and be very critical about picture frames for photographsâ€"if you keep an eye out for nice ones you can acquire a really appealing collection. As for {bedroom floors â€" well there‘s nothing like a deep pile wallâ€"toâ€"wall carpet for pure luxury. But that‘s exâ€" pensive, my hearties, so if it can‘t: «be managed, then good sized flowered scattered rugs are the next best bet. For a sturdy sort of room, Orientals have a fine glowing character about them. White fur rugs or fhaggy woven rugs are often pretty nice in bedrooms tooâ€" especially effective on a polished hardâ€" wood, linoleum or rubber floor that‘s left bare in most of the room. These are fairly inexpensive fibre and cotton rugs now offered for bedrooms and there are also some new machineâ€"made rag rugs that are pretty usuable. Curtains for a bedroom call for speâ€" cial thought. They shouldn‘t be opâ€" pressive . . . in fact draperies are often too much, but they should be interâ€" esting and appropriate. The more unâ€" usual sheer fabrics drape beautifully and may be had in cither provincial ‘or elegant spirit . .. if a finish is needed, a swag or cornice across the top is lovely. Important in bedroom window treatments is the control of lightâ€"if this isn‘t done with blinds or shades, then chintz draw curtains on rings or transverse rods are the thing. But as good a place as any to cut a real figure in bedroom decoration i4 with the bedspread. The sky is pracâ€" tically the limit in choice of fabric and since this is a pretty broad expense in the room, a spectacular fabric really shows up, Our bulletin "A Bougyet of autiful Beds" will give you ideas for spreads you can make yourself.
