The following announcement appearâ€" ed in The Advance ten years ago: "Word from Toronto is to the effect that in view of the sportsmen of Timmins and the North, guaranteeing a share of the cost of the new dam purposed for Fredâ€" erickhouse Lake, the work will be taken up at an early date, the government to do its part in meeting the cost. The building of the dam will mean the preâ€" servation of the noted hunting ground at Prederickhouse Lake and it is hoped that an immediate start will be made to this end. On Monday, March 12th, 1934, proâ€" ceedings at the Ontario Legislature were of special interest and importance to the North Land. Three million dollars were to be set @mpart out of Ontario‘s consolidated revenue fund for Northern Ontario development, the Legislature decided in approving a resolution subâ€" mitted to the House by Hon. Wm. Finâ€" layson, Minister of Lands and Forests. The resolution, a routine one, was passâ€" ed with little discussion, according to the despatches from Toronto. The money, the measure, said should be applied for the purposes set out in the Northern Development Act and the Reâ€" turned Soldiers‘ and Sailors‘ Settlement Act, or any of them. In explaining the resolution, Mr. Pinlayson said a lump sum had been voted each year since 1912, and in that time $63,000,000 had been voted for the Northern districts. In 1933 the vote was cut from $5,000,000 to $3,000,000. The tax rate for Timmins for 198934 as struck by the town council at their meeting Thursday, March 8th, 1934, was 60.68 mills for public school supporters and 76.16 mills for separate school supâ€" porters.

During a short business period Miss Ellie Heinonen, secretaryâ€"treasurer ‘of the group, presented a short report l on the financial condition of the treaâ€" ‘sury. It was agreed to donate the sum of $20 to the current Canadian Red Cross drive. Many cardas and letters received from the boys in the services were read by Rev,. Heinonen.

The course will be under the direction of Dr. E. M. Burwash who has met with success in these classes in past years. Five rinks from Kirkland Lake paid a vigit to Timmins Curling club ten years ago and enjoyed games here. Two of the rinks played Timmins for the Enâ€" glehart Cup and were successful in liftâ€" ing that trophy. Two other rinks conâ€" tested the T. N. O. trophy, but the Timmins curlers were able to keep the trophy here. The fifth rink from Kirkâ€" land Lake played a friendly game with a Timmins rink. With only two rehearsals, a fine choir gave a Scottish programme over the air on Monday evening, March 12th, 1834, from the local station. The choir was under the leadership of Jas. Geils and under the leadership of Jas. Geils and the programme throughout was heard with much interest. Among the local and personal items appearing in The Advance ten years ago were the following: "Rev. Father Ausitin the company. Sir Arthur Balfour talkâ€" ed on world conditions from new standâ€" points and suggested remedies with new inspiration. "Mrs. D. Martin is home again and is well on the road to recovery after her serious operation at St. Mary‘s hospital three weeks ago." "Friends in Timmins will be pleased to know that T. W.

"Ssympathy will be extended from all to D. B. Curâ€" tis, in the recent death of his sister, M G. F. Spearin, who died at her nome in Toronto. Mr. Curtis was at Georgetown last week attending the funeral." â€" "The District Children‘s Aid this week received a very acceptable donation of $79.80 from A.

Punkari, 159 Charles Finnish Church Group rive $20 to Red Cross THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO By Jim Greenblat One of the fine things being done by the Canadian Legion in Ottawa is the organized meeting of all trains carrying Canadian service folks coming back from overseas; refresaments, cigarettes and pretty girls mak»> an appreciated weolâ€" Some idea of the great cost of govâ€" ernment is revealed in one seemingly insignificant item. Do you know that window cleaning in the government buildings in Ottawa during 1943 cost $33,223.15. In 1938 it cost $16,160:05, which gives one some conception of the many new temporary buildings which have been necessary to the war economy Enquiries from a number of houseâ€" wives: Why do some ration coupons have expiry dates, others not. The Consumer Branch of the Prics Board explans that sugar, tea, and preâ€" serve coupons have not a set expiry date because they offer little storage proâ€" blem, can be kept well. Meat and butâ€" ter coupons do expiré because they are perishable and present storage and disâ€" tribution prchléems. If there were no expiry dates for these, they explain, people could save up meat coupons for several months and buy large quantiâ€" ties all at once. This would cause conâ€" siderable complications and suppliers would not be able to foresee demands An incentive for civilians to "give‘"‘ to the Red ‘Cross current campaignfor funds, is knowledge of the fact that men of our Army, Navy and Air Force will not contribute directly to more nutriâ€" tious parcels for Canadian prisonersâ€" ofâ€"war. Rations scale amendment for the armed services gives them 1 1â€"3 ounces butter instead of 1‘; each day, and the cheese ration is cut from half an odunce to threeâ€"eighths. But jam and lard are being increased for them to keep the calories stable. The change in food content, slight as it aAppears, will enrich 30,000 parcels a week for Commonwealth prisonets in the Far East and 80,000 parcels a week for Alâ€" lied prisoners of war in Europe. Our cash donations to the Red Cross won‘t hurt either. Here‘s a point the Department of Ag« riculture wants cleared up. Under perâ€" mit from the Agricultural Food Board, milk distributors and manufacturers may buy from additional milk produâ€" ceéers. But no permits are granted without sharp consideration. Purpose of the stabilization order is to prevent diversion of milk from urgently needed manufactured dairy products. After all most people agree that milk should be distributed fairly, thus some form of control is needed. From October iIst to early in February, the board issued 1,500. permits. As each permit bears on an| average the name of 4 to 6 producers,’ six to one thousand producers were alâ€" lowed to change their sales outlet since October 1. | come ome n come at the capital.

Perishabls foods must move out on a steady basis in reâ€" lation to production if proper distriâ€" bution is to be maintained. Owing to lack of â€" accommodation, when a serving officer or spldier wants his family in Canada to move to Newâ€" foundland h> must not, submit an apâ€" plication to N.D.H.Q. who in turn forâ€" ward it to the Department of External Affairs for consideration. Plenty of our men are now serving in "Newfle" as they call it In a speech, Navy Minister Angus Macdonald said that a hundred million tons of food, fuel and war supplies have been transported across the Atlantic since the war began by merchant seaâ€" men of Canada and other United Naâ€" tions.

Application forms were, of course, originally completed in the field, a large number from the Medâ€" iterranean area. Delivery of the bonds will be hastened when the application forms reach Ottawa from Canadian Military Headquarters in London. Another boost for the Red Cross. Reâ€" cently 200 English wives of Canadian soldiers and 83 babies born of the matrâ€" riages, reached this country, part of the 16,000 brides Canucks; have taken in the United King@dom. Representatives of the Canadian Red Cross met them at point of debarkation, accompanied them to Montreal and Toronto, giving them the low down on our money, rationing, customs and geography. In the proposal of the United States to buy 175 million bushels of wheat from Canada in 1944, the plan is that the buyers will move 40 million bushels direct from western country points in U.S. railways cars; 30 million via ship from Vancouver and other Pacific ports and 105 million by lake ship during the current season of navigation. Reduction of the butter ration by sight ounces starting this month, until {further notice, has been brought about by decreased production in Novembetr, December and January â€" 5,400,000 1lbs. below that of a year ago. An important factor in the decline was the 1943 â€"44 winter subsidy payments which diverted milk from butter to cheese production.

A widely known authority on correcâ€" tive gymnastics for girls and wom>n makes this statement: "I have yet to find a woman underweight who has ardopted a balanced regime of diet and exercise who did not at once begin to gain weight. It is easier to reduce than to gain weight, but in no normal in« stance (where no chronic cr acute illâ€" ness prevails) is adding weight an imâ€" possibility." She advises underweights: Have a doctors‘ examination: speak to him aâ€" bout your diet: follow his advice; rest after each meal if possible for ten or fifteen minutes. And tone up your flacceid muscles and quiét nerve strain. Hore are three exercises which Miss Dorothy Nye suggests for underweights: 1 â€" Lie at on back, arms stretched toward ceiling or raised â€" overhead. Stretch the whole body, pushing hsels downward and pulling head and shoulâ€" ders upward from middle. Then, keepâ€" ing the body stretched, twist and turn as follows: Raise right hip while shoulâ€" der remain flat. â€" Then the left hij.
