The ~public announcement that a Community Nursery School will open School to Open dide Timmins on Nov. 1st â€" in â€" Mountjoy United Church, on Nov. 1 brings to light the efforts of a small group of women who felt the need of characterâ€"building programme for preâ€" school children in Timnmiins, and who have been quietly working on the project for the past six months. After making a survey of the availâ€" able halls in Timmins the Committee accepted Mountjoy United Church as the most suitable at present, particuâ€" larly on account of the possibility of an outdoor â€" playground.

Cochrane Presbytery The United Church Met in Matheson The Cochrane Presbytery of the United Church met in Matheson on Sept. 27 and 28 with the chairman, Rev. Harold M. Bailey of Kapuskasing preâ€" siding. Delegates were present from all the churches. . The presbytery exâ€". pressed itself in support of the meat rationing principle, and commend the government for sending the maximun amount of meat to peoples who have suffered grievously in our common cause. The Evangelism and Social Service Report presented by Rev. J. A. C. Kell also brought in a resolutionâ€" "The world. or organizedâ€" labor cails for our attentlon at this time. Thereâ€" fore we should recommend that all our church sessions place‘themselves at the disposal of both, labor and management to work out solutions for the many postâ€"war, problems that are bOund to arise. We cannot beliewe that strikes are. necessary.: or. advanm-' gecus, and poixit ‘to theeeipérlé'hée of British workers. . bélieve that the spirit of partnership ought to prevaill in the realms of industry and comâ€" merce, and that more of the employees ought to share in both the profits and management of industry." The reâ€" port also expressed Oopposition to gambling in every shape and form, convinced that man can live a richer and more abundant life by refraining from gambling rather than indulging in it. It undermines habitsy of indusâ€" try and thrift, filling youth with an itch for easy money, and causing greai hardship in homes, The presbytery expressed deep reâ€" gret at the recent legislation of the Federal government of Canada by which loyal Canadianâ€"born citizens of Japanese decent have been disfranâ€" chised and deprived of their fundaâ€" mental rights as citizens for no other reason than their race. Any action which discriminates against any man solely on the basis of his race is conâ€" trary to a basic doctrine of the Chrisâ€" tian religion that all members of the human race are members of the family of God. : We therefore call upon Our government to remove immediately this unjust and unchristian legisiaâ€" tion. We commend the action â€" of government in distributing the Japaâ€" nese throughout the different proâ€" vinces;, and express the hope that nothing will be done to compel their removal merely on the grounds Of their racial descent. ~ The report commends the principle of total abstinence from intox‘cating beverages to all our United Church people, believing that it is best for ourselves, our children and our feiâ€" lowmen. We urge our government to pursue a policy of positive education to prevent young people from becoinâ€" ing addicts, and to win grinkers from their mistaken idea that strong drink i; beneficial to them. The profiis should be used to establish instituâ€" tions for the reclamation and reâ€" habilitation of the casualties of the trade.

The golf season was officially closed after The Porcupine Citizens Rehabilitaâ€" ton Committee held a meeting in the Legion Hall on Tuesday evening. The main topic of discussion was in regard to disabled discharged servicemen. A more ‘concise explanation of the committee‘s programme along these lines was given in a radio address last evening when Mr. Frank McDowell outlined their plan as follows:â€" Published in "Some months before V. E. Day I spoke to you of the plans of the disâ€" abled veterans‘ committee, a subâ€"comâ€" mittee of the Porcupine Citizens Rehaâ€" bilitation Committee. As I quoted ‘at that time, the Deputy Minister of the Department of Veterans Affairs exâ€" pressed the work of our Committee as follows and I believe his words, bear reâ€"quoting : Discharged Veterans‘ Committee Outlines Rehabilitation Plans "To coâ€"operate in the placement of handicapped cases by job analysis with a view to assigning the handicapped person to a job in whch his disability will present no handicap and place him on the same footing as other employees. To take a personal interest in him, help to restore his selfâ€"confidence and place him on a level with other work ers." Our disabled Veterans Committee is ‘composed of Service Club Members from each of the CluBs of the Porcuâ€" pine, â€"that is, Lions in Schumacher and Timmins, Kinsmen in Timmins and Kiwanis in South Porcupine and Timâ€" Our plan, roughly, is to have each disabled veteran who needs aid, assignâ€" ed eventually to a member who will be a friend and something in the way of a big brother to him. We hope in each case to pick a service club member who has some common interest with the casualty, such as, a trade, proféssion or religion. We may even go outside the Service Clubs to find the right friend for each casualty. The friend will help to advise him of the benefits offered by his Governâ€" ment, suggest training or educational courses by which he may better his standing and generally assist him to decide on his future employment. All this may sound cut and dried, but such, we hope, will not be the case. Each casualty will likely have a someâ€" what different problem and his proâ€" blem therefore be approached in different way. Careful records will be kept and progress reported. All records and all information will be treated strictly confidential and no one will have access to any of the information except those directly responsible. Mayors and Reeves.are Guests at Banquet in _ The MclIntyre Arena â€" A banquet was held in the McIntyre Arena on Thursday evening Sept. 27th, in honour of visiting reeves, mayors and guess who were attending the Ontario Mayors and Reeves ‘Convei:â€" tion. ‘ The introduction of the guest speaâ€" ker, Hon. Chas. Daley, was made by George Drew of Timmins and form‘r mayor of the town, Mr. Drew touchned Many worthy of the hire should be compensated, and this too applied to those in the skilled and unskilled laâ€" bour class. They were ntt being comâ€" pensated for their work. This must be tackled now before it gets out pof hand and the solution of the proble lies in a spirit of tolerance and #oâ€" operation between the employer and employee. The employee has right :o belong to a"union without discriminaâ€" tion. on a few of the public ‘offices held hy the minister, prior to his appointâ€" ment on the cabinet, which made him well qualified for the job. Mr. Daley remarked on the fact thai he felt that those who helg. public office in municipa‘itiese were not reâ€" munerated for their efforts, nor was the public fully aware of the work and responsibiltiesâ€" involved. Hon. Chas. Daley, Ontario Minister of Labour, in his address mentioned that Canada was turning the corner to a new era of development. The north would be directly concerned wit: this development and: it will grow with the rapidity of the Porcupine. The Workmen‘s Compensation Act was touched upon by the minister i: that the benefit of the doubt is always given the workman. He refused â€" a statement made by an official of a political party that the Workmen s Compensation Act will be placed unâ€" der the jurisdiction of the courts. The question of compensation for silicosis was mentioned and the preâ€" sent barriers would soon removed ‘This would necessitate high cost and wou‘d make appeals or a board ruling prohibitive, he said. In his comparison of the benefits received from the Compensation Board here, to those elsewhere, Mr,. Daley showed those of our province to be the most remunerative in all cases. tter administration along this line. Mr. Daley closeqd with the words at Canada could be the brightest ed in Timmins, Ont., C EVERY THURSDAY Already several veterans have been contacted and received some help but they are just beginning to come in, in any numbers because of the fact that it takes many months before casualties are ready for â€" discharge,. This is particularly true with the sevâ€" erely wounded and injured and the amputation cases, and ‘these> are the men who will need the most tance. > May I point out here, that the Com= mittee has NO authority to make deâ€" cisions regarding disabled Veterans, IT ACTS IN:AN ADVISORY CAPACâ€" ITY ONLY, but TRIES to interpret the wishes of the Veteran to the Dept. of Veterans Affairs Officials and «o employers, or possible employers, of these disabled veterans and Viceâ€"versa. The department has assumed the atâ€" titude that the problems of* casualities are not to be solved by any scientific formula. The disabled veterans cannot be sorted and classified and. treated as groups. THEY MUST BE TREATâ€" ' We also know that employers have taken on men only to have them quit, or, leave by mutual agreement after a few weeks or days of employment. This has been due in the great majorâ€" ity of cases to no fault of the man or of his employer., In most cases, it was simply that the disabled man did (Continued on Page Thre?®) ED AS INDIVIDUALS. They must have employment that occuples their full mental and physical capacities and they must satisfy their employer, as well as themselves. Anything less than this will not be successful rehabâ€" ilitation. x s On acount of his disability, many a man will not be able to return to his old job or to any job that closely resembles it. He may have to take special training, of which many courses are provided by the Government, to equip him to take another job in which he may qualify. By: discussion and"suggestions our Committee hopes to be of help to the veteran in this regard. W Our Committee realizes that all these plans will be of no use unless it has the close coâ€"operation of Employers in the Porcupine Camp. To all employers, we therefore appeal for closest coâ€"Opâ€" eration. If there is a job available which a disabled man can fill as well as an able bodied man we ask that the disabled man be given a try. The coâ€" cperation already given by employers here has been excellent, but we know there are many more disabled to come. spot in the world, provided we move sanely and improve our standards of living gradua‘lly. % Mr. Daley was thanked by Boisvert, the president of the local union No. 241, in very adequate words and expressed a few of his views and those of his fellow members, regardâ€" ing the labour organizations here. He als> stated that a plan was underâ€" way to consummate collective barginâ€" ing at all the mines in the camp. . Mayor Emile Brunette made a very brief speech of welcome in that the sign above him in gold lettering exe pressed the thoughts of all. (The sign carried appropriateâ€" words of welâ€" come from the town and townships of the district). Mayor Inglis of Niagara Falls folâ€" lowed briefly with a compliment to the wonderful welcome the delegatles had received in the North and espe= cially to Mrs, Anne Shipley as in hey efforts lies the responsibility for the delegation coming to the North. He also expressed h‘s gratitute to t‘ T. N. 0. commission in making the trip possible. Col. George Drew, Premier of Onâ€" tario, was guest of the: Mayors and Reeves at this convention and would speak to the delegates the next day at a business session in Kirkland Lake. Councillor Bill Roberts proposed the toast to the Jadies and was replied to by Mrs. J. V. Bonhomme. Beautiful bouquets of yellow roses were presented to Mrs. Charles Dalzy and Mrs, Anne Shipley by the daughnâ€" ters of Mayor Emile Reeve® Anne Shipley, the Lady Of the North, as she _ continually called by the members of the conveaAâ€" tion, spoke briefly, saying that the Drew government has shown more inâ€" Col.
