Juvenile hockey got away to a good start in Timmins ten years ago, with six teams and two more to come from Schumacher and South Porcupine. Often it is said that history repeats itsef. Well hereâ€"is one case where there was a holdâ€"up in Timmins (an unusual thing at that time) and now ten years later there is also a reported holdâ€"up with violence and â€" threats (though hotdâ€"ups are still infrequent here). The Advance ten years ago gave the following account of the 1924 holdâ€"up:â€""While Steve Boulski, a plasterer, was ccming along the lower end of Fifth avenue on Moaonday night he was held up by two men who deâ€" manded his money. He did not reâ€" spond quickly enough ts sult them and so was walloped on the side of the head. Thirteen dollars in cash that he had on him was taken away and he was also given a beautiful black eye. The event occurred between ten and eleven o‘clock Monday evening but it was the next day before Steve gave the police full particulars of the case. He says he knows the two men who did the holdâ€" up work. He gives the name of one of them as Fred Tubie and says he knows the other one but does not know his name. A warrant is out for the arrest of Tubie cn a charge of robbery with violence and the police expect to pick him up today." The big crowd at Timmins rink ten years ago was delighted with a hockey battle between the Hollinger and Mcâ€" Intyre teams, with the score 2 to 1 in favour Of the Hollinger. In the same series the Timmins team beat the Dome 4 to 0. The Advance ten years ago noted that only one member of the 1923 counâ€" cil was reâ€"elected for 1924, and that was Jos. A. Bradstte, who is now the member for North Temiskamâ€" ing in the Dominion House. Boyle, D. Kerr, E. J. Mason and C. B. Morgan. C. V. Gallagher was elected PAGE TWO reeve with a vote of 412 against 223 for Mrs. J. A. Thomas. Timmins was always a good town, but occasionally there was a odd case that was not so agreeable as the ordinâ€" ary even tenor of the lawâ€"abiding and orderly walk of the pzople in genreral. One such case is referred to by ‘The Advance ten years ago as follows:â€" "A foreign woman living on Birch street brought to the notice of the police this week what she claims to be the second aittemnt to poistn her. She says her husband now living near Cochâ€" rame :s responsible for the attempts and that he has used their nineâ€"yearâ€" old stn to convey the psison. About this time last year the man in question complained to the police that his wife was living with another man and unâ€" less something Gesperate was dons he would more than likely do «<omething desperate himself. He was apparently so vengeful that the police searched hm and found a loaded club on him. He was fined for carrying concealed weapons. Shortly afterwards he left town, taking his young son with him.

The Advance ten years ago published the account of the marriage of a forâ€" mer resident of South Porcupine, Miss. Devine, the revnort from The Saskatom Daily Star being published in these columns as follows:â€""A very prétty wecding tock place at 612 SBpadina Crescent, Saskatoon, on Christma‘s Day, when Mr. Arthur Beaumont, second £3h of the late Mr. William Beaumont, o> Ballinrobe, County Mayo, Ireland, was united in marriage to Miss Ida Mae Devine, second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. D.

But there is many a fat man who finds the going far from easy. The following letter describes one typical instance: "I began to put on weight this year, and develaped stoutness in the stomach which was very ugly. I took Kruschen Salts each morning for a month, and reduced my weight 13 lbs. So I kept on, and have now reduced 19 lbs. altoâ€" gether.

Mr. Johnston has been suffering much from neuritis, especially in the muscles of the arms. All here will sincerely wish him speedy return to full health, as well as the ‘best of wishes for the season." ‘"There were several guests at the weekâ€" ly luncheon of the Kiwanis Club on Tuesday of this week. Mr. T. F. King, president Of the Timmins Bsard of Trade, spoke ‘briefly but effectively on the aims and purposes of the board of trade.

Perâ€" As noted elsewhere in this issue, "Damaged Lives" is presented under the auspices of the Canadian Social Hygigene Council. It is part of the good work of the Council in its health eduâ€" cational efforts and the desire of the association to reduce all illness rates. The Canadian Social Hygiene Counâ€" cil is a national association carrying on health education work in all phases of health throughout the whole of Canada. The CSsuncil has as its aim the emphasizing of the need for preâ€" vention in order that the extremely high costs of unnecessary illness throughout the Dominion may be avoided. While the cost of the Great War was apprximately 400 million dollars a year for four years, the cost of illness in Canada, including the cost of postponable death, is estimated to reach more than thrse times this amount every year, namely $1,311,000,000. The Council‘s publications state that 180,000 pecple (2 p.c. of the entire population) are constantly ill and unable to work. The Council has taken an interest in such matters as pasteurization of milk, prevenrtion of diphtheria, peripdic health examination and the establishâ€" ment of county health units. The Timmins Chapter of the Woâ€" men of the Mcose held a Christmas tree and entertainment on Dec. 19th at the Moose hall, commencing at 6 p.m., acâ€" cording to a note received on Friday of last week. The children were served to a grand supper, followed by a proâ€" gramms of snecial merit, at the close of which Santa Claus paid a personal visit in full regalia, distributing gifts, candy, fruits and nuts to all. Games were played and the children enjoyed the evening throughout. The Council was responsible ‘ten years ago for the establishment of the first grants for health purposes to be made ts the provinces, namely ‘the venereal disease grants amounts to as much as $200,000 a year.> These grants have been given continuously until last year when the grant of $100,000 for the support of venereal disease clinics was withdrawn from the Dominion estimâ€" ates, in addition to the grant the Council‘s own activities. It was hoved that agrant of $200,000 would be made by the Dominion Govâ€" ernment to the provinces for the estabâ€" lishment of country health units. This grant has not materialized as yet owing to the depression. The Council emphasizes the fact of high, unnecessary hospital costs. The statement is made that in the venereal disease field alone, largely because of the intensive work of the last ten years by the Council, a great many hospital seds which were filled because of the end results of syphilis have ‘been freed. General paralysis of the insane, heart disease, early apoplexy, bone syphilis, blindness, congenital syphilis are some of the results of the spread of these diseases which have diminished in virulence very markedly since this work was commenced ten years ago. The film, "Damaged Lives," with its supplementary lecture, constitutes a remarkable example of the extent to which the education of the people is possible. "Damaged Live," constitutes a part of the educational programme for the sradicatizsn of venereal diseases carried on by the Canadian Social Hygiene Council throughout Canada CHRISTMAS ENTERTAINMENT BY THE WOMEN OF THE MOOSE CANADA NORTHERN POWER CORPORATION, LIMITED Week.
