('a.seoruently; the game, which washit in the N.t).f.A. series' mi- the '1)ielison Cup, was post- poned by agreement, the President of the N.O.r".A. to select a later date for the event. The football team as a re- sult did not go. up to Coehrane on' Wednesday morning, but the baseball boys did, aeeompanied by a number of enthusiasts. Arriving at Coehrane, however, they fOund rain and the in- formation that the ('oehrane Baseball team had been. trying to reach the Timmins team.to say that the game eopld not be fplayed on amount of the condition of the grounds from the Fain. The Cochrane Club said they had been trying to get through a phone will from (3.30 in the morning, but had not been able to get the mes- sage through.

BASEBALL AND FOOTBALL O POSTPONED AT COCHRANE PLEASING RECORD MADE BY SCHUMACHER PUBLIC SCHOOL A reader of The Advance writes this week to call special attention to theeseellent record made by the Schu macher candidates this year for the High School Entrance and to e0ngt'a- tulate the F,'ehtunaelun. School 'Board, the ratepayers and the Principal, Miss Annie E. Scott on the successful work of the Selnunaeher school. This year all eight-pupils recommended by the Principal were successful in the Entrance examinations. During the past four years. under' the skilful teaehing of Miss Annie Fl. Scotut. twenty-four pupils were prepared for the H. S. Entrance examination, and of these no less than. twenty were suc- cessful. Ot' the successful pupils it may further be noted that three of them were only eleven years of age. Besides being an adept to H. S. En- trance work Miss Scott also evidently possesses skill in organization, ellici- eney in school management and tho- roughness in every phase of school work. There is general reason for pride in the North Country in the” ex- celent schools here, and it is not too much to say that this land has some of the best educators to be found in the Province. A week or two ago The the t'rrnunee. A week qr [Wu ago Ine Advance made reference io the ex- eellent reeord made by the South Por- vupine school, and on several occa- sions the effieieney and success of the' Timmins schools has been properly referred to. Iroquois Falls also may well be proudxof' its school, and there are other centres in this part of the North of which the same may be said. For a comparatively new coun- try the North Land hat reason for much pride in its schools. Aug. Aug, Aug, Sept M ll ll, 7--Nelntyre at Timmins..

The work is in connection with the disease. spruce hudworm, doing damage to. trees in the Lake Terniskaiuin,ur area. A party came to the North Land by" airplane from Ottawa to investigate and see what can he done with the post. The airship is in charge of Capt. Fitzhor- liert. a famous pilot and aircraft spe- eialist in the employ of the Govern- ment. The party also includes Dr. James M. Swnyne. Assistant Enmmo- logiSt of the Department of Agricul- airship is in charge of Capt. Fitzhcr- hert. a famous pilot and aireraft spe- eialist in the employ of the Govern- ment. The party also includes Dr. James M. Swuyne. Assistant Eutguno- logist of the Department of Agricul- ture nt Ottawa. It is expected that- the party will spend about three weeks "looking over" the forests of the North. Last year an airplane was used with success in similar forest service. It does much to overcome the 1”long: distances" of the North Land, und the only wonder is that air.. craft are not more generally used now in forestry work. ' MOVEMENT FOR SECESSION GATHERS STRENGTH DAILY When the movement for secession of the North Land was iirst suggest- ed, the Coelnuane Post was venemous- ly uppueed and consequently suggest- ed that no,tme was in femur of such untim'e. But the light penetrates in the end even to the last Post. i'n its last issue The Post admits that the general negleet and indilferenee of' the, powers that. be to matters of im- portzmce m. the North Land, and "the attitude dl' the Government in trying td extrzu-t the last rent out of indus- trial develupnient here" has spread the gospel ot' s'ei-es'siun and the ques- tion can nu long be treated lightly. The Post gues’ further and' admits that l’ur part uhXew Ontario (but not for Teniiskaming) secession might he it good more. no“ innother l'ew yeavs,The IPost and some others may. wake up to'a. realization that the North Land mustpevure a fair ehanee for. derelopuient'and " square deal, and ir the (lovermnent of Ontario re- fuses this, then the North Land must get a Government of its own that pan and will deal fairly with this promis- ing: eountvy. The one hope is that thege people will not wake up too Fate after the North is milked dry and the cream till shipped t.) the south. An olrieiarol'. an important Domin- ion-wide organization, . who recently travelled from coast to coast with watehful eyes and thoughtful inter- est, some time ago remarked to ',l'lw Advance regarding the district differ. enee.he noted between the people of Northern and Southern Ontario. "They are distinct people," he said, “different intype, in ideas and ideals. Their problems and aims are far apart. The people of New Brunswick and Nova {Seotia are so similar in gen- eral viewpoint and the needs and pro- blems of their provinces so similar and mutually understood, that they might he one province. The people of the North Land and Old Ontario are ditferent. l wonder why so large a territory as New Ontario continues to remain a neglected part of Ontario when there is so little in common bet- ween these parts of the Provinee." The people of the North Land should set all their alarm clocks, so that they may wake up in time.
