guest solimsts. . Rapidiy making a place for himself in Timmins, Walter Findlay with his wide smile and happy nature has gathered about himself many friends already. . He has been asked to direct an oratorio around Easter time. Which oratorio he hasn‘t been able to decide yet. * You never know dear; Last week while Mrs. C. Desaulniers lay very ill of a heart attack preparations were being made for the arrival of the famous heart specialist from Toronto, Dr. William A. Oille. Dr. Oille was expected on the plane and Karl Eyre‘s eldest son Gordon was to drive to Porquois Junction and pick the specialist up. and drive him to Timmins. Mrs. Eyre, ever a good organizer, made every preparation for the great doctor‘s arrival. ‘He‘s an old man, Gordon," she said, "carry his bags for him and drive careâ€" fully." . She also set aside a good bumper of khighland dew to warm the poor old man up when he arrived. Gordon was slightly surprised to see a sprightâ€" ly man jumn» from the plane and leap into his car with great agility. "Pretty agile for 75," thought Gordon. When the car pulled ‘up at the Eyre residence, Mrs. Eyre was on hand with the warming mixture. The doctor shook his head. â€" He didn‘t drink. The "old man"" turned out to be the son of Dr. John Oille. the f{amous heart snecialist. . Thinking that they might cover up the blunder by explaining that they thought it was his father, the Eyre‘s found that the old boy was off on a hunting trip at the time and fit as a fiddle. It just shows you that you can‘t nlan anything these days. * Changes: â€" Ken Lamb formerly the smiling maitre Dee at the Rainbow Room has joined the Mascioli entourage and will be at the Empire Hptel here fot a while, then on to Huntsville where Mr. M. is opening a Brand new hotel.
