He commenced his holidays for this year on the first of the monthh, but was confined to his bed at his home on Tenth ave., where death occurred. The funeral service was conducted in the Church of the Tansifiguration on Monday morning by Rev. F, Cournoyer, and interment followed in the Cochrane Roman Caâ€" tholic cemetery. Pallbearers were six members of the Forestry department staff: Messrs, A. Hurd, C. Hurd, J. Fink, R,. Sigouin, A. Bray and C. Lucas. In 1932 Mr. Watt approached the Department of Game and Fisheries in Quebec, with respect to setting aside a protected area which could be cropped yearly, thus assuring the Inâ€" dian population of a respectable livâ€" he was employed by the Forestry Branch as district clerk and storeâ€" keeper. "As early as 1928, after watching diminishing returns of beaver pelts, Watt decided that it was imperative that some sort of quota should be estaâ€" blished in regard to this fur producer. Alfter four years of hard effort among the population near Rupert‘s House, he was able to convince them of the necessity. James 8. G. Wiatt, for some forty years a resident of the Hudson‘s Bay area, where he was a factor for the Hudson‘s Bay Company, and who was the ‘originator of beaver conservation in the vast North area, died at Ruâ€" pert‘s House on July 10th. His name and personality should be long rememâ€" bered for his work in beaver conservaâ€" tion. Few references have been made to the personal story of the late James Watt, but The Toronto Globe and Mail has a lengthy reference to his work for beaver conservation.

Six Births Registered In Timmins This Week "In 1938 from a sick bed in a North Bay hospital, Jim Watt wrote such a convincing letter to the Department of Mines and Resources at Ottawa, that the department embarked on a program of fur conservation. Thus, in 1938, from an area of 12,000 square miles, the program has been enlarged to cover an area of 64,000 square miles in the province of Ontario and Quebec, and is rapidly taking a national aspect." This phenomenal increase in returns was due to Mr. Watt‘s efforts in conâ€" vincing the Indian population of the benefits to be derived in future years. No trapping was permitted until 1941, and, while in 1932 relief was granted to the Indians, it is not necessary today, although the area does not reach full production until 1946. "The area will come into full proâ€" duction ‘in 1946, and it is estimated that a producton of 4,000 pelts yearly can be maintained indefinitely. "From this initial seed stock of 159 beaver in 1932, the census in 1944 showed over 12,000 parent stock after cropping 850 pelts in 1941, 1,800 pelts in 1942, and 2,000 pelts in 1943, in, adâ€" dition to the live beaver furnished to seven other areas now set aside. ‘"‘The Quebec government of that time set aside an area of 7,000 square miles. Survey of the area showed that it was populated by 159 beaver. The expense of maintenance of this huge area was borne by Mr. Watt until 1934 when the Hudson‘s Bay Co. realized that the original idea was producing results, and returned to Mr. Watt his outâ€"ofâ€"pocketâ€" expenses, and took over the lease of the area.

Using a defaced marker ind careless driving each were assessed $10 and costs. A blind man visiting in town comâ€" plained to police that 2 taxi driver had defrauded him in the matter of the purchase of a bottle of liquor. The finâ€" al outcome was that each of the two men concerned was fined $100 and costs for illegally having liquor, which made that a very expensive bottle. There was an interesting point raised by Crown Attorney S. A. Caldbick in a case where a man was charged with Joseph Carbonneau was given a month for driving while drunk, this beâ€" ing his second offence., Joseph Millette, Dan Simeruik, Earâ€" nest Cauchon and Robt. Martel were each given one day in jail, then to be taken to the recruiting station at North Bay for failure to observe the National Selective Service Mobilization reguâ€" lations. The defence of one of them was that he had a glass eye. Pleading guilty to: the theft of a bicycle and also to :"theft by trick," Anthony Robert Madeline was given a month, on each charge, the terms to run concurrently. In the latter case, he took $7 from a woman to drive her to Sandy Palls but failed to try to fill the bargain. Following a raid on a Sunday motnâ€" ing game in town, Aurele Tremblay was fined $20 and costs for having beer illegally, and 11 foundâ€"ins paid $10 and costs each. The Crown agreed to â€" withdraw charges of vagrancy against Antoine Portelance, Roger Barbeau and Marcel Timm. The young fellows were warned by the Magistrate that they would land in serious trouble if they did not settle down to proper ways. Omer Martin was sentenced by Actâ€" ing Magistrate S. C. Platus at police court Tuesday to one year in prison for breaking, entering and theft.. He pleaded guilty. Between $200 and $300 worth of goods were stolen from Bucoâ€" vetsky‘s Store at night, less than half being recovered.

He was cited for gallantry at the Melfa River Crossâ€" ing in Italy, May 24, and was decorated vith the nation‘s highest honor.‘ (Canadian Army Overseas Photo) A Message from the Life Insurance Compani¢es in And that‘s how progress comes about. A fellow comes along who knows more than you do about life insurance, for instance, and first thing you know you see a way to protect yourself and your wif}e' and the kiddies, a plan you might never have thought of, yet it seems easy once you start. If there were no salesmen, hundreds of thousands of people now insured would be without the security they enjoy, So many people put off till tomorrow what they should do today â€"so many neglect provision for the future. That is why the helpful neighbours who sell life insurance have beâ€" come such great instruments in the promoâ€" tion of thrift. It is good citizenship to own AYBE you have a neighbour who doesn‘t know what it‘s all about when it comes to raising cucumbers. Or perhaps he hasn‘t a knack with roses. So you tell him what spray to get, or youggive him a little lesson in pruning. And next thing you know he says: "I‘m certainly sold on that advice you gave me." Haven‘t you ever talked over the back fence? Exchange:â€"If you give yourself to make your guests feel at home, you‘ll no longer wish they were, Huntsville. Forester:â€"Pulling «"to=â€" gether is good horse sense. _ Pulling apart is nonsense. The second call was on Tuesday: at 5.07 p.m. to the corner of Mountjoy and Bannérman avenue. The call was due to a short circuit in the wiring of a truck The wire made a lot of. smoke and the truck driver took no chances but called the brigade. There was no damage. Timmins firemen had only two calls during the past seven days. The first of these was on Monday at 227 a.m. when there was a verbal call from the police department to 21 Maple Street North, the premises Oof Fong Brothers, laundrymen.© It was only a chimney fire but it made so much smoke that it appeared as if neighbouring build« ings might be on fire. The laundryâ€" men had to rinse out some clothes that were smoked up. a two weeks‘ adjournment to produce evidence to prove his contention, his client agreeing to pay the $12.50 per week. into the hands of the Chief of Police until the case was settled. The man had heen payâ€" ing $12.50 per week for the upkeep of his wife and two children. Dean Kester ter, for the defence, said that the wife had moved and the man‘s cheque had thus failed to reach her. Also it was held that there was an extra child now and the husband thought this relieved him from responsibilty for the wife as it was over two years since they lived together. He was perfectly willing to maintain his own childrén. When Mr. Kester started to prove that his client was not responsible for the extra child the Crown Attorney held very strongly that neither husband nor wife could give evidence as to the legitimacy of their children.. The Crown Attorney insisted that even a letter from the wife could not go into evidence in such a case. ‘Mr. Kester, however, was granted Firemen Have Only Two Calls During Past Week Cedar St. Between 3rd â€" 4th Todayâ€" Friday and Sat.
