Born â€" At St. Mary‘s hospital, Timâ€" mins, on Friday, March 26th, 1943, to Mr. and Mrs, Ivan Shook, 56 Patricia Boulevard, Timmins, â€" a son (Lawrâ€" ence Michael). Mr. Orvill Smi‘th, who has just comâ€" pleted a winter of hockey in the United States, returned to his home at Cochâ€" rane last week, and visited in Timmins over the weekâ€"end. A. L. SHAW, Secretary. B. ‘Beaudoin‘s name was called but he did not respond. "He has a b,ad headâ€" ache" the magistrate was informed, the accused being in the cells after being charged with second offence drunkenâ€" Bastarache Lumber Co. and the Esâ€" tate of N. Blahsy faced charges under the Wartime Prices and Trade Board regulations. The lumber company was charged with buying and selling merâ€" char@gi~> without the necessary license and with selling shoes and socks at prices higher than is considered reaâ€" sonable or just. The Blahey Estate is charged with failing to observe regulaâ€" tions in regard to the subsidy on milk and with selling above the price ceiling. There are three charges against the lumber company and five against the grocery concern. At the request of the Gefence the cases were all adjourned for a week. _ Mr. and Mrs. H. Dumoulin were charged with failing to send their children to school. When the police spoke to Mrs. ‘Dumoulin she was quo*ted as replying that the youngsters had as much education as she ever had and she was all right . In court Mr. Duâ€" moulin said that he could not supply proper clothing for his family and this was the reason they did not go to school. When he answered a question as to what he earned at the mine where he worked, the magistrate commented that he should be able to provide clothes for the children. "I cannot provide clothes for myself," he replied, explainâ€" ing that he had debts to meet, some going back five years. The magistrate sought to make him understand that he must send his children to school. "If I fine you, according to law, as I could, that would make it harder still for you to get along," Magistrate Atâ€" kinson said. Instead, he adjuorned the case, with the understanding that the children start to school at once. "If they are going to school, you don‘t need to come back on Tuesday of next week," said the magistrate, "but if they do not go to school I will have to call you here again, when I may not be so lenient. The man left the court after promising that he would arrange to have the children attend school. ; Oone of the young men had been quesâ€" |tioned and made a clean breast of the matter. This was followed by the arâ€" rest of the other two. All three young men, the detective said, had given every coâ€"operation and assistance to the police in recovering the goods and straightening out the details of the case. Some goods had been located in the homes of two of the young men. The method of procedure had been Martin and Babin, who acted as clerks, parâ€" celed the goods and slipped them to Legassey, who was a truck driver. He |delivered the stoien goods +o the places ! designated. Evidence for the Crown showed that full restitution had been made, and where goods had been used, the paren‘is of the boys had paid fot them as soon as they learned that they had been acquired dishonestly. . Addressing the three accused Magisâ€" trate Atkinson said that they had apâ€" peared to have won the sympathy of all concernedâ€""except myself" he addâ€" ed. He pointed out that theft in a position of trust was a very serious matâ€" ter and carried a penalty up to fourâ€" teen years imprisonment. ‘"You. may consider yourselves very lucky," the magistrate told the young men, "beâ€" cause I am going to give you a chance. It is up to you boys, yourselves, now. You can start afresh on the right road. But remember if you get into any othe: iilegality you can be brought before me and sentenced on this count." The Magistrate bound the three lads over to keep the peace for two years in the sum of $200.00 each, and they were alâ€" lowed to go on suspended sentence. ‘The stolen goods ware ordered reâ€" turned to S. Bucovetsky‘s with the exâ€" ception of the goods that had been used and paid for by the parents, these goods to be the property of the purâ€" chasers. Crown Attorney Caldbick said that while the thefts were more serious than ordinary thefts being committed while the accused were in positions of *trust, he was inclined to think that suspended sentence might meet the ends of jusâ€" tice, as he felt the lads had learned a lesson. He understood the manager of Bucove‘sky‘s store had expressed the wish that the lads would be given susâ€" pended sentence. The Crown Attorney pointed out that the way the three young men had coâ€"operated with the police were strongly in their favour. Mr. J. A. Consineau made an earnest plea for leniency for the young fellows. He pointed out that they had never been in trouble before in any way. Their parents had told him that they were good lads and gave no trouble, and the parents were amazed that they should have entered such a path as that of stealing as charged. Probably, the lads had been led astray by bad company. In any event they had «g@lâ€" ready been punished, havingâ€" lost their positions, a serious matter under the circumstances. They had given every assistance and coâ€"operation to the polâ€" ice, and Mr. Cousineau felt, that with full restitution made ends of justice would be me? if the three young men were allowed to go on suspended senâ€" tence. VA Vilt VG viltCl O â€" Police Court This Week. Probably the most important case coming before Magistrate Atkinson at Timmins on Tuesday was that of recent thefts from S. Bucoversky‘s store and warehouse. Vincent Legassey, Armand Babin and Pernando Babin were chargâ€" one in force at the Hollinger for the ed with the theit of a number of artiâ€" cles from Bucovetsky‘s, the total value being given as $150.00 for the articles endorse the plan, it will be put into force. A number of different plans‘:were investigated by the Emâ€" piloyees‘ Commiitee of the Noranda Mines, and the plan being voted upon tluis week was selected as the best. It gives full coverage to workers‘ families and dependents, and is similar to the past five or six years . â€"it provides for hospitalization â€" and special nursing complete medical and surgical service, listed. On behalf of the three accused, where necessary, drugs and Xâ€"rays and their solicitor, Mr. J. A. Cousineau hnas been accep‘ied by the company at tered pleas of guilty. Magistrate Atâ€" the request of the employees‘ commitâ€" Linson wished to know some of the deâ€" |tee, to go into effect, if a sufficient tails of the case before announcing his number of employees‘ signatures are decision. Detective Beacock told of the ‘op:ained. thef‘s being brought to his abtention.| at meetings called last week by the some of the Other Cases at â€" Police Court This Week. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TTMMINS, ONTARIO *#Illegal possession of Hquor resul‘ed in a $10 fine and costs, ness. The magistra‘te agreed to try the accused Wednesday morning. In court yesterB@ay the accused drew a six months‘ term. Two cases of illegal parking brought fines# of $1.00 and costs each at Tuesâ€" There was also considerable favour for a "blackout" to impress on all in dramaftic way, the seriousness of the timés. In the last loan permission could not se secured for a blackout as thn: authorities had the impression that the Civil Defence.Committese had not tne perfect organization required for such an even‘. Timmins Civil Defence Comâ€" mittee toâ€"day, however, was trained and equipped to handle any emergency, and those favouring a blackout as a feature Another feature that was emphasized was the need for merchants and others to decorate their business places and the town in general to be alive with flags and bunting all through the camâ€" paign to keep up public interest. Parades, it was thought, should be specially featured with as many bands as possible and with as many organtzaâ€" tions taking. part as can be arranged. Band music was particularly stressed as a valuable feature. Comment was made by the chairman on the remarkable work done by the schools in previous campaigns, and it is hoped and expected to have tn:ss coâ€"operation again. Mr. Burt read a number of the bulleâ€" tins from headquarters in reference to forms of publicity for the loan. The newspapers, the radio, outdoor and inâ€" door adverlising, the theatres, motion pictures, public gatherings, public speakers, concerts, and various novelties and original plans would be used to publicize the loan campaign. Mr. Frank Colemeco suggesited the use of sandwich men carrying slogans and mottoes relating to the loan and many strongly commended this idea. Another suggestion was the use of local planes to scatter leaflets over. the town at specified times. Mr. Burt said that the coâ€"operation of the newspapers and the radio was assured for this campaign as for all others in the past. The plan of having a sipeakers‘ panel worked so well in the past that it will be followed in this drive. These speakers will speak over the radio, give brief addresâ€" ses at the theatres, and address servaice clubs and other organizations in the district. outlined the organization ‘hat had been so succesisful in previous loans. He noted that a number of the workers had left the district, on acâ€" count of enlistments and other causes Names were suggested to complete the organization. It will be a few days beâ€" fore the complete plan of organization will be finally arranged. In reviewing the organization Mr. Burt said that the plan was to have a number of comâ€" mittees handling the various phases of the orgainzation. In this way the work is not unduly loaded upon a few. Mr. N. L. McNames, organizer for Coâ€" chrane> district, spoke briefly but efâ€" fectively to the gathering. He welâ€" comed all to the mee‘ting and expressed his sincere appreciation for the kindâ€" ness; and coâ€"operation he was receiving from every side. He was confident that with the energetice and enthusiastic workers the Fourth Victory Loan would go well over the top in Cochrane disâ€" trict. (Continued From Page One) all had worked for success in the past, and urged similar coâ€"operation in :r«e futurse. He brcught out the fact ‘that in the last loan campaign every single centre in this district (Cochrane Unit) had passed the objective set, some of them making several times their quota and all doing well. In regard to the sale of war savings stamps equal sucâ€" cess had been won. For two months â€" 2cember, 1942, and February, 1943, tn»e District of Cochrane had been seconit in the province, being passed only by Ottawa. He had special words of thanks and appreciation for all the workers who had given so generously of their time and effort to achieve the great results that had been reached. Mr. Bur‘% reminded all that the coming campaign would be more difficult than any of the previous‘ ones, but that this fact should simply spur on eacn and every worker to increased effort. Hon. Alp. Fournier to Speak Here for Victory Loan At meetings called last week by the committee the speakers included two representatives of «the Hollinger Emâ€" ployecs‘ Medica!l Service Committesâ€" Mr. George Golden, chairman, and Mr. J. H. Jutras, both of whom have been on the Hollinger Plan committee for five years. Mr. Golden addressed the gatherings in English and Mr. Jutras in French. Both endorsed the plan, pointing out that 97 per cent of the Hollinger employvees sunported it. They aiso answered a number of quesiions asked in regard to the pian. Billy Ramsay‘s "Variations in G," by Beethoven, a Grade 8 piece, and Miss Barbara Barry‘s "Prelude in C Sharp Minor,‘"‘ Rachmaninoff, a Grade 10 seâ€" lection, were both outstanding, Miss Barry receiving a great deal of applause for the perfection of such a difficult . The ‘High and Vocat Jonal|\ School Choir was the last number on the proâ€" gramme. Their first song "was "Deep River," Colin Charron taking the solos Estelle Boutin‘s "Fantasia in D. Miâ€" nor," by Mozart, a Grade 8 piece, was a very pretty selection, as was the due* presented by Misses Betty Jane Rose and Barbara Barrette, Grade 6, "Minuet from Symphony in E flat," by Mozart. Eleanor Burke, of Grade 9, played a soft selection, "Romance in D Flat," by | Sibelius, and was followed by Miss Osaâ€" i belle Guay, of Grade 4, presenting "Gossip.‘" by Duvernoy. l Miss Norma Andrighetti, of Grade 2, in "Waltzing in the Night," by Chopin, and Mr. David William, Grade 6, in "Gavotte," by Purcell, were both outâ€" standing numbers. A little miss, in the person of Marâ€" garet Lafontaine, of Grade 3, capiti< vated the hearts of her audience by playing the "Valse," by Chopin, and the "Jolly Spook," by Ketterer. are confident that such an event should be staged here during this campaign. ‘There was discwsion as :o the hoidâ€" xmotmemmwumddem of this kind. was very valuable. Mr. Burt pointed out that most of the other cenires in the district like Scnuâ€" macher, South Porcupine, Cochrane, Ramore, Matheson, Iroquois Falis, Anâ€" sonville and others, had very effective organizations of their own, and so while the District Committee was ready and anxious to do anything at any time to help any part of the district, the chief work of the central committee was in Timmins, and if everything was aonre well here, it could be accepted as a fact that all of the smaller places would do their part well with their own talent. (Continued From Page One) the Flea‘" was presented by Miss Louise Brown, who after a lengthy description of ‘"Flatty and the Flea," illustrated them on the piano in a way that showed the little girl‘s talent.
