Another matter that is emphasized this‘ year is the absolute nscessity for all hunting the birds to carry their reâ€" gistration cards and their hunting 4iâ€" censes. Caught without either of these cards, (or even without one of them suggests rather costly penalties). The open season applies throughout the province, except in provincial parks, crown game preserves and other game preserve areas, IRVIN ROSNER, R.O. Game wardens throughout the proâ€" vince have been notified that the open season for partridge shooting this year will be Oct. 3rd to Oct. 17th.

The limits for a catch are five birds per=«=day, with not more than twentyâ€"five in the whole season.

Eighth Troop Conducts Season‘s First Meeting. Seco@ts and leaders of the Eighth Timâ€" mins Troop met last Friday evening at St. Anthony‘s Church basement for the first meeting of the Troop since their return from camp. A majority of the Sscouts were on hand to witness movâ€" ing pictures taken at their camp at Davis Lake this summer, and shown by Mr. Lariviere. Fond memories were brought back by thess pictures, and First Troop Operates "Pop" Booth at Rink Following up on the fine example set by them during last year‘s skating seaâ€" son, the First Timmins Troop were out again last week operating a refreshâ€" ment booth for the patrons of the big week at the Timmins arena. All the Scouts of the Troop took part on varâ€" ious evenings, and while the results of the effort have not yet been announced, it is expected that they will have a |good sum which they intend to donate to the B.P. Chins Up Fund. The First Troop is among the leaders in this efâ€" fort, and have made a number of doâ€" nations in the past, and we wouldn‘t be surprised if this one put them right at the top. The effort was under the direction of Scouter Morgan, and the Scouts also assisted in the nightly parade about the main streets of the town. The First Troop has already indicated that they are off to a good start in the season‘s activities. Sseventh affair, and a committee of W. F. Lawry, F. Gauthier, A. Wright and N. Greene was appointed to organize the event. A committee of Scouters will be appointâ€" ed this week to act with the Executive Committee. and definite plans should be ready to be passed on to the Troops in the near future. Last year Apple Day was a very successful affair, a toâ€" tal of 4,625 apples being sold at a net profit of $230.05. The average amount received per apple, 6.8 cents, was the highest ever reached in this District, but it is hoped that this year both sales and receints records will be broken. one of were pl with the 1€ 1€ Timmins Pack Opens Ye Activities t] vening the Seventh jler the leadership id Kim MacDonald, that should be done when air raid sirens sound.

A closing thought for all interest in the welfare of our community and country: "If you are going to do anyâ€" thing permanent for the average man you have got to begin before he is a man. The chance of success lies in working with the boy, not with the man â€"Theodore Roosevelt." Resident of North Bay for 31 Years Passes On Big Rally for all Cubs on Saturday Cubs and leaders bf eight Timmins Packs will meet this Saturday at 2.30 p.m. at the Central School grounds for a monster rally to mark the opening of the season. No definite plans have yet been announced, and they may be kept secret as a surprise for the boys, but a real turnout is looked for both by the leaders and the boys. Any Packs that have already had meetings this week are asked to note arym pass the word on to the Cubs. j Cubs of the Second Pack are reâ€" minded that tha first meeting of their Pack will be held this Thursday in the basement of St. Matthew‘s church, unâ€" der the direction of Akela Webb.

Two Scouts of the Troops made plans for their Pirst Class hike, an overnight affair intended to prove the have passed and fully unâ€" derstand the various First Class tests.

However, the average would indicate that from a normal of approximately 3%%, absenteeism had increased to over 10%. As you are all aware, National Selective Service has been given a very large measure of auâ€" thority over every individual residing in the Dominion of Canada between the ages of 16 and 69. The officers of Naâ€" tional Selective Service are much disâ€" |-turbed over this situation regarding abâ€" senteeism and are seeking a remedy. You will be interested to know that I discussed with representatives of the Minister of Finance a question which affects many of our m>n in Porcupine who have taken advantage of the Domâ€" ianion Housing Loan and of the Home Imâ€" prevement Loan. I wanted to find out what would happen should these men be Weekly Meet of Mattagami Ladies Club on Monday Mrs. R. Lazenby Hostess to Club. Lucky Draw Won by Mrs. L.

The opinion was that suitable prctective measures would be instituted so tha no overdue hardship would result. + Regarding the expens»es of a workman so transferred I was assured that a travelling ~allowance would be paid. There are other allowances also to comâ€" pensate should loss in weekly earnings cccur due to such transfer. I also brought up the question as to the possibility of some form of War Inâ€" dustry being created in the community. It is a difficult problem as none of the raw materials required for most of the industries are produced locally. Howâ€" ever, I have not given up hope that something along this line may still be possible. Again I would ask you to realize that some of the matters mentioned may be due for future adjustment. â€" However, it occurred to me that the people of Porcupine were entitled to know â€" as much of the situation as I do and conâ€" sequently I have taken this opportunity to present the story so far as I know it. The problem of absenteeism was brought ubp at our meeting with Mr. Little, and figures which would outline the present situation were requested. The Order in Council requiring a seven day notice when an employee desires to change his occupation or when the Company decides to ask a man to change, is now in force. A slip stating the reason for such change must be sent to the local employment office and it will be illegal for anyone to enâ€" gage an employee in any occupation without te authority of National Selecâ€" tive Service. And the word "employee" means anyone who is employed by a firm, from the manager down the line. (Continued From Page One) Belective Service are directed to increaâ€" sing the manpower available to base metal mining. It was natural, under the circumstance, that attention should be focused on the labour situation at the gold mines and that every possible means should be adopted to encourage men to transfer from gold mining to base metal mining. Actually, as you know, a nuunber of gold mines have ceased operation during the past three years while others have curtailed the scale of their operations,. It was point.â€" ed out to the Government that in such districts as Porcupine and Kirkland Lake the gold mining industry had many resâ€" ponsibilities to communities which had grown up around their operations. The Government agreed that these are deâ€" finite responsibilities and do not wish to create a situation which would cause distress in these communities, Naturâ€" ally all of us have in our minds that the great objective is how to win the war. Consequently, our problem must be attacked with that point first in mind and backed by the assurance of the Government that the burden will be lightened as much as possible. guess is within reason. T do not think that the Government will refuse gold mines the right to obtain sufficient laâ€" our to continue operations. In some, perhaps many, cases there will be curâ€" tailment. But, by and large, and subâ€" ject to consultation with the Manpower Advisory Committee of the industry, mines will be able to secure enough laâ€" bour to prevent wholesale shutdowns. After all, the Government are well aâ€" ware of the costs, both human and finâ€" ancial, involved in closing down the gold mining industry. It is to minimâ€" ize just such costs that Mr. Little is bringing about the appointmen of our Manpower Advisory Committee. To look ahead and guess as to the fiâ€" nal outcome of the situation I can only add two and two and assume that this Thoughtful Outline Given of Situation in Porcupine Camp C s. R.

A litle consideration will show Timmins and district benefits from Home Front work of the Army. On few weeks ago the Timmins town c« A very important Home Front effort of the Salvation Army is the "Missing Friends‘" department. Last year the Army had 825 enquiries for missing friends and relatives and were successâ€" ful in locating the greater part of these. The Salvation Army maintains 18 inâ€" dustrial centres in which waste paper, worn or damaged furniture and clothâ€" ing, etc., are collected. The matcrial is sorted, repaired, etec. This gives the poor opportunity to secure needed maâ€" terial, while the work involved helps out discharged prisoners and others "up against it." Sunset lodges for old ladies and Evâ€" entide homes for old men lock after old folks in need. The Salvation Army has fourteen hospitals in Canada. Last year 27,880 patients â€" were admitted. There were 9,631 births and 7,280 operations. Fresh air camps are maintained for youngsters of poor and needy parents to have opportunity for days of sunshine and health. The prison and police court work of the Army still goes on and many young men are turned to right paths and oldâ€" er ones redeemed. In Canada last year the Army made 11,996 visits to courts and prisons and helped literally thouâ€" sands. There is a whole volume in the fact that 25, 395 mealy were given to men just out of prison or court at the time when friendship and sympathy meant all the difference between desâ€" pair and a new start. ‘Three homes for tchildren are mainâ€" tained where children from warâ€"broken destitute or demoralized homes are givâ€" en a chance in life. A few suggestions of the extent and the value Of the work may not be out of place at this time. The Army‘s hostels for men "down and out" are still indispensable.
