At the last minute, however, it was found necessary to can- cel the proposed tour and as a conse- quence the North missed a friendly visit from a lot of good fellows and also the favourable publicity that would have followed the visit. Twenty YearsAgo From the Porcupine Advance kyle: -M“A* United Church The Minister praised the woman vol- unteers who do the packing. “Anyone can be brave if the occasion arises, but it takes real courage to do jobs like this at home. You make the sacrifice of your time and effort to pack the parcels so that. our men who are today prisOnérs of war may come back in good health” This new project will mean, he said, the. opening of more packing plants by the Canadian Red Cross. A plant will soon be opened in London with others to follow. At present the society is packing 100,000 parcels weekly in five plants. but this will have to be in- creased to 170,000 and possibly 190.000 weekly. he said. would include nationals of Jugo-Slavia, Russia. France. Poland. and Belgium. The ten million food parcels repre- sent 55.000 tons of food_ The historic parcel was taken off the line by Mrs. Ross Jamieson, convener of the Overseas Nurses Group, and given to Mr. Norman C, Urquhart, chairman of the Canadian Red Cross National Executive Committee, who presented it to Mrs. Merritt as a representative of the wives of all Canadian prisoners of war. “Canadian prisoners of war are in good physical health because they have food made possible by these Red Cross parcels", the General declared, “Our prisoners receive one parcel weekly and prisoners of the Allied countries will receive one monthly from us." Group Captain F. F. Tisdan, R. C, A; 1", presented Mr. Urquhart with a $1000 cheque towards cost of parcels. a contribution from an anonymous donor in Indiana. who had been impressad by. the story of Ganadian Red Cross food parcels. The ten millionth food parcel for British prisoners of war rolled off the assembly line at the Canadian Red Cross packing plant in Toronto, Mon- day morning, June 5 in the presence of a distinguished audience including Mrs. C, C. Merritt, wife of Lt. Col. Merritt, V. C. and Major General L.R, LaFleche, Minister of National War Services, re.- presenting the Dominion Government. General LaF-leche, who was intro- duced by Mr, Harold H. Leather 01‘ Hamilton, chairman of the Red Cross Prisoners of War Food Parcels Com- mittee, told the gathering that the Canadian Red Cross in co-operation with the Dominion Government, will undertake a share in the feeding of Al- lied prisoners of war in Europe.

ONTARIO Editors; linotype operators. ministers and other good people will be specially interested in the following paragraph Is This Another (Tasc of Going; from Bad to \Vurso iIn reponting recently to the town? ship council, Town Engineer Browne said that there were 1,100 more names to add nithosezflready on the honour roll, thus making the total of those from Kirkland Lake and district now‘ serving in the armed forces well over: the 3,000 mark. The township council i gave great praise to the committee for the effort and patience and persistence . shown in gathering, tabulating and; checking the names on the honour roll. , It is believed that the roll is now about g as complete as it is humanly possible to make it. Kirkland Lake and dis-3 trict is very proud of the large numberi on the honour roll and question whe-! ther any other place can show as larger a number in proportion to population! The 2,000 names referred to are dis-l played in two glass cases erected out- side the township hall. Township Er-i gineer Browne suggested that the town- ! ship secure a new case of sufficient. size to carry all the 3,100 names and; still leave room for the addition from] time to time of new names of the! fighting men and women of the dis-i trict. The Township of Teck has had an] honour roll at the township hall at Kirkland Lake showing some 2,000; names. Recently it has been stressed: that there are many more than 2,000! people from Teck who shonld be on' that honour roll. Accordingly a com- ? mittee of threeâ€"Councillor C. C. Ames. Township Engineer Gordon Browne, and Mr. Andy Blackâ€"were appointed to complete the roll so far as this was possible. The two last named are members of the Kirkland Lake branch of the Canadian Legion, Mr. Black be- ing the president of that organization. Mr. Black was formerly a popular resident of the Porcupine.

Will 90/716017 - W/I/MIt/YflVkIIZ/Q/ Prospector in the North for 40 Years Dies at Haileybury The late Mr. Milmy was born in Kirkcudbrightshire, Scotland. in 1884, coming to Canada as a young man in the early days of the present century. The late Albert Milroy was for many years a resident of Haileybury and Was highly esteemed there, as he was in other parts 01 the North where he was well known. The recent death of Albert Milroy at Haileybury removes from the Northern scene one of the well-known prospectors of the camps of the North, and one who had done much to develop this country. The late Albert Milroy had lived in the North for some forty years: He had prospected in Cobalt. Porcupine and other camps. He was at one time a partner of Sandy McIntyre, but not at the time the McIntyre was staked. He was in the Porcupine area at the time of the big fire in 1911. He was also resident in Haileybury at the time of the Central Temiskaming fire that caused loss of several lives as well as much property damage. In that latter tire he lost his home, but with the faith of the North he rebuilt on the same site. He was among the many prospec- tors who worked in‘Northwestern On- tario. Late Albert Milroy once a Partner of the Late Sandy McIntyre.
